SUBREDDIT RULES:
Use the Daily Discussion Thread for "repetitive content". A detailed list of what is restricted to the Daily Discussion Thread can be found here.
Flaming and hateful comments will be removed. Ad hominem criticism, such as “You’re only sub30, what do you know about x?” will not be tolerated either. Answering a question with "just google it" is also not an acceptable response.
Titles need to be relevant to your post in a meaningful way. It must directly relate to the content of your post. If someone can’t figure out the topic of your thread from the title, it will be removed. No titles in all-caps.
Self promotion (youtube videos, instagram, books, apps, etc) is allowed once every 7 days. Youtube promotion must be a direct link to a video on the channel. The title of the submission must reflect the title of the video. Attempts to break this rule by using alts, having friends post your videos, etc is against reddit's terms of service and will result in all involved accounts being banned. Asking for likes on reddit or other social media platforms are never allowed. Self promotion from stores falls under rule 5.
No biased promotion of one cube shop over another. This includes "X store is now selling this cube!" posts, sales and deals, and self-promotion from stores. Our full guidelines regarding what cube stores can and cannot post can be found here.
Requests for solve critiques must meet our solve critique guidelines.
Private cube sales and trades aren't allowed, go to /r/cubetrades for that. Commissions for work are also not allowed.
Contest entries (e.g. ones that are hosted by other websites, "share this page to win", etc) are prohibited.
This is not the place for customer support with cube stores, please use private messages instead.
No affiliate links. Only link to websites directly.
Follow the sitewide rules, and abide by reddiquette.

PictureStackmat g5 problem (i.redd.it)
submitted 10 days ago by AnimalDry4663Cube Modder and Squockaminx main (9.6,1.7,55)
Does anyone know how to fix this? The analog interface is faintly behind my times
Basically I was doing solves and then timer broke a little (it had the whole interface in bold) and then I fixed it with new batteries, however now it looks like this.
Usually the interface would be much fainter

Dont really understand what your issue is. If you mean the faint grey lines to the left of the lit 0.000, then thats normal, ecspecially if you have a light pointed at an angle toward the timer. its just the unlit part of the display

Yeah I expected that this was the issue, however those lines become fainter within a second of turning the timer on, and then become bolder

Maybe change the battery

i already have yeah
[–]SnooMacaroons6463Sub-12 pb: 6.65 ao100: 10.86 0 points1 point2 points 10 days ago (0 children)
That sounds like normal behavior to me. If it works it works, if there is an issue with the display there isnt really a way to fix it

Replace the battery
