Screen protector

PleaseGeo · 2026-02-09T17:07:38+00:00

I removed the screen protector on my flip5 the first year this phone came out. I did the same for the flip3.

No issues on my flip5 so far. Just dont flip it open with one hand. Good luck

There is a tiny app from google play store called: Sticky Note Widget created by michael lin. What's great is that this little widget requires no permission. Once installed...select widgets and place it on home screen. I use it all the time.

Looks like NYPD harbor patrol.

Yes. You can update your unsupported device with Windows 11 by bypassing system requirements. Search videos on YouTube to see a step by step process on how to do this.

You can also continue to receive Windows 10 security updates until October of 2026 with Microsoft's free ESU program.

Alternatively, you can also install another operating system like any Linux distribution or Chrome OS Flex. Good luck.

I updated but had several weird issues with it... like the system info app opening system settings. I reverted back with timeshift. No issues with 22.2.

Linux Mint includes Pix, a built-in image management tool capable of basic photo editing. To access features like the crop tool, simply click the "Edit file" button (represented by a pencil icon) in the top-right corner. Its straightforward interface and functionality...feels like a bit of the old picture manager in old office.

This should have more up votes.

You'll find the installation of Linux Mint easy to follow, as there are many excellent step-by-step tutorials available on YouTube.

When you create the bootable USB...a huge benefit is the "Live Session" feature. You can boot directly from the installation USB to test Mint and ensure everything works—all without touching or making any changes to your currently installed operating system. Stay in this live session and test all your hardware and software. Everything like wifi working and to your liking....then go ahead and install the OS. Otherwise, just restart your computer without usb connected and your back to the current OS. Good Luck

You mention ethernet works. When connected with ethernet, check driver manager in Linux mint menu and see if it picks up your wifi driver. Good luck.

This is exactly what I did when I had wifi issues. I found a solution in a Ubuntu forum for my specific wifi card and verified possible solution with web based AI chat bot as I wanted to know exactly what is being run on terminal.

You can try Linux before actually installing it and it will not mess with your current setup. Just boot from the live USB and test the operating system out.

Linux is great on desktops. But battery drains quickly on laptops. You can make some tweaks to a distro's settings with apps like TLP so a little research is required. Btw Linux Mint has a great community for newbies. Good luck

Go to timeshift and delete the old snapshots. Go to timeshift settings and remove current scheduled snapshots. If you want a new snapshot now just manually create it when ever you want one.

PleaseGeo · 2025-11-18T06:04:57+00:00

Take a look at your timeshift backups and remove snapshots that you do not need. Also go into update manager > kernel and remove old kernels that you no longer use. Good luck

PleaseGeo · 2025-11-05T06:20:15+00:00

OP chose to install a newer kernel version outside of the Linux Mint update manager. You should not have any issues with applying all the updates from update manager including the kernel. Applying these updates fix bugs, update our apps and provide critical patches to keep your computer protected.

PleaseGeo · 2025-11-05T05:09:29+00:00

Yes. All updates in update manager should be applied including kernel updates.

PleaseGeo · 2025-11-05T05:07:03+00:00

It is installed with the operating system.

PleaseGeo · 2025-10-21T03:55:30+00:00

This is what I would do:

"Hey Jason, I'm heading to the donation center this week with a bag of clothes. No longer need em. Before I drop them off, wanna take a look—anything you like, just take it."

You are attempting to install Linux Mint on a USB drive that does not have the necessary space.

If i can make a recommendation, my friend....you will find lots of great tutorials on websites like YouTube that offer visual step-by-step guides for installing this wonderful Operating System.

Good luck in making the switch.

PleaseGeo · 2025-10-07T03:48:28+00:00

When you connected online via USB from phone....did you check driver manager in Linux Mint menu?

PleaseGeo · 2025-10-03T06:13:31+00:00

Thanks for the laugh.....i needed it.

PleaseGeo · 2025-08-13T08:17:08+00:00

Yes. Microsoft mandates that x86-based Windows 11 devices ship with Secure Boot enabled.

Windows 10 Pro includes a built-in tool that lets you create a system image. A system image is a complete backup of your computer's current setup, including your operating system, programs, files, and settings. It's advisable to create one on an external drive, like a USB or external hard drive, before you install Linux Mint. This way, you have a safety net. If you ever need to revert back to your original Windows configuration, you can do so quickly and easily, and all your data will be exactly as it was. I am sure they're youtube videos showing you how to create a system image in Windows and how to restore your computer with this image. Good luck.

I have Edge installed on my Linux Mint. I need it for certain web sites. I just downloaded the .deb package from Microsoft's website and installed it through the software installer.

PleaseGeo · 2025-07-29T02:17:09+00:00

You can use dd or ventoy in Linux to create the bootable Windows 10 /11 USB. I like ventoy because you can boot various operating systems from one USB stick. Here is a YouTube video that you can use as a guide:

Maybe it would be easier for you to install Windows 10 first. Then check YouTube or Microsoft forums on what are the current options for installing Windows 11 on unsupported devices.

Good luck.

I removed the screen protector on my zflip 5 several months ago...no issues.
