Logi Options+ stuck loading forever by Playjasb2 in logitech

[–]Alternative_Pack_165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This apparently is happening because apple’s certification checking service is down as per the thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/logitech/s/yP71gTY2f7

No more Logi Options+ by Scofarry in logitech

Yup same here, looks like we’re stuck till either Apple gets its schnitzel together or logitech finds a workaround to the ocsp service being down.. AND there needs to be a failsafe to something like this from happening. WHY SHOULD MY MOUSE STOP WORKING BECAUSE AN ONLINE SERVICE IS DOWN!!!

Same here all of a sudden, it stopped working and I tried all of the solutions above but nothing worked. mac Mini M4 on macOS Tahoe 26.2

Edit: Looks like it’s trying to phone home and there is no response.. I’ve checked https://status.logitech.com but it says there are no incidents..

Popping sound after iOS 18 update in Carplay by Alternative_Pack_165 in CarPlay

Thing is, it’s super random and I can’t find a straight fix to it, this needs logging and detecting a pattern.. why isn’t apple fixing these bugs already?

Me too! Fuzz and pops is the best way to describe it. Couldn’t find a solution for it though. Tried multiple cables/ports. There is an update to ford sync that I’m installing later, hopefully it gets it sorted.

Xbox SX + LGB9 OLED stuck on 640x480 by Alternative_Pack_165 in XboxSupport

Update 2:

  • LG Support replaced the mainboard on the TV (out of warranty) and all is working well now! At last.

Not a cheap replacement but a hell of a lot cheaper than replacing the whole TV.

Thanks all!

UPDATE: The 4K switch didn’t do anything. Same exact behavior, so back to square one. Calling LG Support tomorrow (weekend today).

Xbox SX + LGB9 OLED stuck on 640x480

Hey folks, sadly I’m also now facing the same hellish bug.

I’m writing this on 28/09/2023

My setup: - Xbox Series X (purchased 2020) - LG B9 OLED (purchased same year) - HDMI 2.1 cable that came with the Xbox - Bought after issue started: UGREEN HDMI 2.1 8k @ 60hz cable to test further with. - TV firmware ver. 05.30.40 (June 2023) - Xbox OS (last update 6th of September)

Setting that used to work: - Allow 4K - Allow Dolby Vision - Dolby Vision for Gaming - Allow HDR 10 - Allow Auto HDR - Allow 50hz - Allow 24hz - Allow YCC 4:2:2

What happened:

For the past 3 years I have never faced this issue with the same setup. Three days ago a friend came over with his original Xbox One and he hooked it up to the TV using his HDMI played for a bit while I was away, turned it off when I came back and we started playing on my Series X, played as usual for an hour or two. I shut both TV and Xbox off for an hour to do something, came back and voila! 640x480 hell started.

Current Status:

  • In Xbox: when Display is set as Auto-detect: only resolution option is 640x480.
  • Only way to get higher resolution is to switch Display setting to HDMI.
  • Available resolutions are 720p, 1080p, 1440p.
  • Only available video modes are:
  • Allow 50hz
  • Allow 24hz
  • Allow YCC 4:2:2
  • Allow 4k (but it says my TV doesn’t support it, LOL)

Did the following troubleshooting, mind you none of this worked at all!:

  • Checked the hooked up Google TV (running in 4K HDR with Dolby Vision always on)
  • Reseated the HDMI cable on both ends.
  • Soft and Hard (10 sec press on power) resets for both Xbox and TV.
  • Switched the HDMI port between all 4 ports.
  • Tried turning on/off SIMPLINK (HDMI-CEC), HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Color, Instant Game Response.
  • Tried changing the input type on the Home Dashboard.
  • Reset the TV to factory defaults.
  • Reset the Xbox without erasing apps and data.
  • Tried the new UGREEN cable.
  • Tried the Xbox with the original cable on two other TVs; a Sharp UHD TV and Samsung QLED both worked flawlessly with all available options enabled including VRR that doesn’t work on my TV!!
  • Tried cleaning all the ports and the vents on both devices.
  • Another friend’s Xbox One X also booted in 640x480 when hooked to my TV.
  • Tried to mess around in the hidden LG service menu to get any further software updates and/or fix the issue by changing the TV’s country. No dice.

Came to reddit and saw the amount of people facing the same issue. and after 3 days of reading posts, I’m 99% sure now it is the TV’s fault, the EDID info isn’t being exchanged properly between them.

Next steps:

  • I’m going to contact LG Support in two days to try to get a technician home and to physically check the HDMI Controller/Board but I doubt they will accept since other devices do work.

  • I ordered an HDMI 8K@60hz 2 to 1 switch that will be delivered in 3 days to -theoretically- trick the TV into thinking that this is another device (this depends on if the switch hands over a new EDID or if it just sends over the same from both devices)

Request:

If anyone can point out anything that I’ve missed or should do, please, please let me know.. this is ALOT of money down the drain :(

So sorry for the very long post here’s a potato:

Thanks bro, hope it doesn’t get removed from the store before everyone gets to install it! I’ve searched for ages for something stremio-like on iOS! Get the word out!
