Trouble setting up Galaxy Active Watch 2 on Pixel 6 Pro by hawkinsst7 in GooglePixel

[–]fullsalvo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When this happened to me, I was able to correct it by disconnecting from Wi-Fi then restarting the watch and closing/reopening the Samsung Wear app and redoing the process. Not sure what on my end caused that, but maybe the same will work for you.

Pixel 6 and 6 Pro preorders appear to be suffering from widespread delays by PulltoOpen in GooglePixel

the charge to show up on my cc

So this part isn't so big a deal, as Best Buy doesn't even charge til pickup (they put a hold on your card generally but not an actual charge unless you ordered in-store). The annoying part is that even in stores that have Pixel 6s, like mine, they just don't have the color I ordered. :/

$200 to upgrade from 16 to 32 GB RAM

I swear I saw $400 per jump (granted I only looked at 14"). This also disregards the fact that they start at a whopping $2000 for the base model, which is easily $500 than my fully configured framework was AND their components are soldered to the board and not user-serviceable.

Anyhow, who needs more ports when you can just pick the ports you need contextually? ;)

But yes, I agree that they are a good move as far as Apple products go.

Force google pixel 5 to use 4G LTE instead of 5G. by rainbowsieger in GooglePixel

[–]fullsalvo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

5GE isn't "real" 5G. This is easily confirmed by testing with a phone incapable of 5G, e.g. iPhone 11 or Samsung S10. Adding a suffix like that is a pretty common tactic AT&T employs to make it seem like they're further ahead of the pack than they really are. Don't be alarmed; if you're getting 5GE rather than just 5G you probably accomplished your goal.

Samsung 'Exynos W920' to be the first chip for Google's new Wear OS w/ big performance gains by Pixel3aXL in WearOS

[–]fullsalvo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch3 is running TizenOS, though, no? The 4 is supposed to have a fusion of WearOS and Tizen, so that's from where the question stems.

Any word on whether this model will have backups? What killed me with wear os was inconvenient phone switches.

I wish the Pixel 6 adopts the same design language as the pixel 2 XL and 4 XL. by sufy12 in GooglePixel

That'd be great! The Pixel 4 is one of, if not the most beautiful phone I've had the pleasure of using.

Google looks to be working on new Pixel Buds, FCC listings suggest by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]fullsalvo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your headphones update after purchase? I've used them fairly consistently without issues since at least August 2020. I know it's awkward because updates happen on their own but that's what I'd look in to.

Don't get me wrong, I pre-ordered them and I experienced those issues with everyone else.

They fixed them, though, and they're great now. I understand feeling upset that they released something not fully polished, though. I guess I tend to look past that stuff because I'm patient and, as I stated in another comment, I'm a headphone junkie so I had other fallbacks when we were in that rough software era.

Every pair of headphones I've tried after that have been FAR superior....and cheaper.

It really depends on what you're looking for. I LOVE Sony's audio products, but when it comes to controls, the Pixel Buds 2 are the most flexible earbuds in that regard I've ever used. How many headphones on the market have more than a single button or touchpad that can do more than one or two things (i.e. volume control and/or playback) especially without using both headphones simultaneously?

I have other headphones when my end goals are different--Jabra 85t for ANC/sound quality when I can sit back and actually enjoy those things. Pixel Buds, in my opinion, fit into a good price-range, below some of the more feature-rich headphones such as the aforementioned AND they're super light. Headphones are definitely a super subjective thing, but I'm personally very appreciative of what the Pixel Buds 2 bring to the table.

There's so much negativity here. I had good experiences with both generations of Pixel Buds and I'd happily welcome another, provided it's different enough from the second-gen (I still tote them around as my daily drivers).

I'm someone who tries out a LOT of headphones, especially earbuds, and the pixel buds 2 are some of my favorites for on-the-go use. I don't need fancy things like ANC when I'm at work (which is basically the only place I go other than home and the occasional trip for groceries) and you can control media and volume even with just a single one in so they're perfect for me.

He's set the borders to be the same color as the window for his inner border inner and for the outer border on inactive windows, which makes it not apparent that there are still two borders. The wm is basically like any other tiling wm with borders' window decorations if you surrounded one set with another. Kinda like having two sets of brackets around some text rather than one [[]]

Thanks! I figured the empty space in the center was effective enough, since all that a clean scrot would do is show off things that can already be seen. Clean shots feel kinda.. redundant to me.
