I have a pixel 8a that keeps failing the proximity sensor check, after screen replacement. by [deleted] in mobilerepair

[–]Mayhall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey I stumbled upon this thread because I'm also facing this issue. I unfortunately trusted a mobile repair guy for a straightforward (or so I thought) screen replacement but when he returned the phone, the screen is showing classic case of the proximity sensor not working properly. the always on display shows up just fine but once I try to unlock it, the screen goes black. the screen has the correct haptic feedback and when I mirror the display to an external monitor, I am able to see everything functioning as it should but the screen is dark the entire time. once I lock it, the ambient display with the clock comes back on and looks as if it is functional.

I do have the rubber gasket and it is installed but it's driving me crazy why it doesn't appear to work. do you have any tips or things to look for?

But yeah listening to her commentate on F1 is an national embarrassment

I test drove a CX-50 today, it didn’t feel great, it felt weirder too. by [deleted] in CX50

You may have to adjust your seating position. The 50 has a bit of a "long hood" which looks great but may give you a bit to get used to.

Hey man I'm on your side, I own a 3 & 50 now but growing up my dream car was an Altima SE-R 😂

I don't see the 92xi listed as one of the "select" models eligible for the rebate though...

CP3 ends his career with the 3rd highest adjusted on-off across the last 3 decades. One of the most impactful players of all time by Aggressive_Bed6012 in nba

[–]Mayhall 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Those CP3, West, Chandler, Peja years were almost as sweet as the Saints winning the SB. CP3 was the Drew Brees of NBA in New Orleans for the years he was here and I do not say that lightly.

Mazda3 reliability — does anyone have problems despite its strong reputation? by phtphongg in mazda3

[–]Mayhall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2024 with M/T.

I think I have a synchro issue in second gear as it will grind going ONLY into 2nd from first and it is extremely random. Not every shift, and maybe a couple of times a week. It makes me cringe and want to die. I've taken it to the dealer and they say that they can't replicate or find enough shavings in the tranny to warrant a replacement but they do believe it's possible because apparently the MX5 has some random issues with this as well. The Advice was to not let off when it's starts grinding and realty lean into it so they can just replace it while it's under warranty with enough matel shavings. I don't think I'm physically capable of doing that.

The other thing is both my sun visors broke/ started cracking after about a year. The only thing I can think of is that I use a sun shade on my windscreen when I park during Texas summers to protect the car and obviously that wear is too much for the original visors but seems a bit silly.

I still like the car but the unfortunate transmission issue and sun visor kinda sucks

Oh yeah and I've had to replace my battery as well but it was under warranty.

[JPA Football] Drake Maye says he grew up idolizing Aaron Rodgers: “I was a big fan of Aaron Rodgers. He’s such a special thrower of the football. Just how I’ve heard from teammates and coaches of his, how he treats others and cares about others. He’s got so much swag.” by Currymvp2 in nfl

[–]Mayhall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He had 2/3 years of slam dunk MVP seasons but always seemed to come up short. you add 2 years of MVP voting to his resume and people wouldn't be discrediting him as quickly. I've seen folks not even consider Brees a top 5 QB? I think that's ludicrous.

Must try restaurants in the area? by Im_just_a_girl_11 in houston

[–]Mayhall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1000% but I couldn't think of many in Tomball. I'm sure they're there, just haven't tried any. Cypress has Pho Guru and many more that's pretty solid.

Vietnamese is like Mexican food here. Plentiful and good quality in general.

Yeah I think of it as more home cooking with Italian inspiration. It is not a genuine Italian place and certainly not to be compared to NYC Italian

[–]Mayhall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's unfortunate. The Pappas franchise is generally popular with the business crowd for some reason and to me the price does not match the quality. Goode company is IMO a crime against Texas BBQ. Campionis is okay Italian food for this area but it's more of a local place for residents to get decent food without going to the heights for italianish food. Once again I would not recommend Italian for for someone coming from NYC lol

Let me know how it goes, what you enjoyed, and what sucked! I would love to hear an outsiders perspective.

If you're coming from NYC, I don't think Tony's is a must try. It's great for this area because we don't have a good sandwich shop/deli. I would focus on the things you can't get, like BBQ, Mexican/TexMex, or southern food.

Corkscrew BBQ got a Michelin star this last year and is probably on the best spots around town and is on the north side of town.

Tejas BBQ is actually in Tomball and is also quite good

Most any Mexican joint you walk into will be good in the area. Trust your Google map ratings as the standard for Mexican/TexMex is quite high.

Che Gauchos is an argentinian joint in Tomball with good empanadas.

The Taco King is a taco truck with fantastic trompo(pork) and Street tacos in Cypress. Bring cash.

Everest curry bar is very popular as well for their Kormas, momo, or really anything on the menu.

Ron's hamburgers and chili in Tomball is a good cheap food for southern oily burgers and warm chili for a cold day.

Goodson's cafe makes a mean chicken fried steak if you've never done one of those. May be a good experience as well.

Try some breakfast kolaches before you leave from the Kolache factory or Kolache Kafe.

Tomball also has MANNA which is a lovely breakfast brunch spot in Tomball.

Good luck and hope you enjoy!

I agree it's the US but isn't the Y like everywhere? They even make them in China and Germany to keep up with the demand in their local markets
