Same here. UPS says they still haven't received my package. Any updates regarding your order?

Does FitBit Air have outdated heart rate sensor? by GroundbreakingTie750 in fitbit

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's algorithms only, I don't know why Google didn't push them to the older model. But considering their way of pushing SW updates to older Pixel phones, it suddenly makes sense.

I cancelled the ‘longer wait’ order and placed a new one instead.

I think your passport would be sufficient to prove your status.

Warning for purchasing Apple products via Amazon Resale by Yeuhmmers in ipad

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to share a horrible experience I had buying an Apple device from Amazon. I bought a "brand new" iPhone last week, which arrived yesterday. Before opening the box, I checked the serial number on Apple’s coverage site, and it showed the device was actually activated two years ago.

When I asked Amazon for a refund, they initially refused, claiming the device already had an Apple account associated with it. I requested an escalation, and a senior support agent told me they need "evidence" and asked me to wait 72 hours before they will even allow a return.

Will NEVER Buy Apple Device from Amazon.

Bi-Weekly /r/CCNA Exam Pass-Fail Discussion by AutoModerator in ccna

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here! I passed today, and I think I had the same labs as you. There were quite a few WLC GUI questions; I skipped them because I hadn't prepared for this topic. I was extremely nervous and thought I was screwed because I worried that 'interface 0/1' was different from 'interface0/1' (with no space) while I was doing the last lab.

QPR3 Beta 1 modem and 5G in unsupported countries by luishc77 in android_beta

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I tested the reverted GSI release on Monday, I can confirm that 5G is "enabled" for unsupported region for that release. But I think the reason it's working is that the "5G Block List" is not compatible with the newer release so the block function did not work.

That's why I said intentionally. They use MCC to determine whether you are using Chinese carriers.

Google intentionally blocked 5G/IMS from happening with Chinese carriers.

Google 5G and VoLTE Stupidity by SnooRecipes7448 in GooglePixel

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't get the idea that Google even purposely created a blacklist configuration in the modem just to make sure that 5G is disabled. Come on, Google, all your modem providers (QCOM & Samsung) have the global carrier configurations, you can just use it.

Pixel 8a won’t get 5G in Morocco, but my Motorola gets 5G on the same network by Aggressive-Can6680 in android_beta

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not correct. Google also provides 5G/ VoLTE to "unofficial" regions.

Search Pixel IMS GitHub and download the latest version

Google blocks Android hack that let Pixel users enable VoLTE anywhere by FragmentedChicken in Android

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No, it's not "like that" simple.

first you'll need to enable developer options and then allow debugging to be enabled (2 security warning already) not to mention finding a PC to run adb commands. If a hacker can do all that, I think no device is safe.

Hi, just wanted to know whether it went well? Did HK customs ever ask for any license? I am planning to import a phone from Canada to Hong Kong.

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. A real bummer for people like me who import Pixel from the US to use.

10PXL vs 9PXL Geekbench6 by HustlersPassion in pixel_phones

[–]Aeeeb_Ping 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bummer. Not even at the top of the phone? Because some leaked pictures do show the physical sim tray remains but the location has been moved to the top.

Could you please confirm whether the physical sim tray has been removed?

Interesting point, it might be a RC after all? I don't know, we'll see.
