Being a Sunday, I do spend a bit of time playing my oculus.
In particular... death unchained. I generally charge my stuff in the spare room next door. I never think anything of it until today, when I went to open the door, it was locked and wrestling this fact for a few seconds helped in no way. My oculus had been charging a good time, and I never want to overcharge it. Especially with the varying current strengths we have here in Lobitos.
YouTube was my first thought, plus I was banking on the fact that the locked door knob in question was a cheap, cheap piece. The first video I clicked was on how to use plastic to open a door. Watch two videos and thought easy. Wrong, hahaha. The plastic just couldn't do it for me. Then I used an old bank card, but that was even hard to bend around the door. That was a fail too.
Now I am stressing a little more.
Back to youtube to find more options to solve this issue. I found a video that showed how to dismantle the door knob and reset the lock. Basically it is to pull the knob out from the door and locate the little hole as indicated by the arrow. Find a relatively fine and strong object that would be able to press down into the hole. Press the pointed objecting into the hole, wriggle a little until you feel a tiny clip release. At the same time, pull on the door knob. I happened to nut myself as I was pulling out the door knob whilst pressing a pin in a tiny hole.
With the door knob off. Use the same object you used prior and insert where the arrow is. Here you will release the lock and the door opens. Putting the door knob back on is relatively simple. Guide it back in, wriggle until it clicks back in. Done.
Oculus is green and read to go.
I never thought it was going to be that easy to do what I just did in my own apartment. Next time I rent a place, I am checking all the doors for their security. If I find another one like I have here. I am changing it.
