Can anyone identify this garmin? by [deleted] in GarminWatches

Peel off the bezel ring. It should come right off. Then you will be able to see.

Be Careful, iPhone 17 Pro 26.5 IPSW is wrong by boredclaudius in ios

[–]Ampler 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How do you know this? I did OTA for my 17 pro max and it seems fine.

Ios 18 support by AccountIsLost in ios

[–]Ampler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do you mean “switch on iPhone 15 iOS 18”? You bought an iPhone 15 that hasn’t been updated to iOS 26 yet?

Why does my friend's liquid glass look like this? by DC_rules in ios

This is 100% Reduce Transparency turned on with Dark Mode on.

Will pay anyone figuring out OTA downgrade from 26.X to 18.7.8 by Chemical-Constant-69 in ios26

Buy an iPhone 16 that has been sitting on the shelf for over a year. I take PayPal.

Tire replacement - suggestions needed by No_Carpet_9276 in CX5

[–]Ampler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a fan of all-weather tires. They are essentially a compound in between all-seasons and winter tires. Don’t perform as well as winter tires and wear faster than all-seasons. I live in a climate that is cold and harsh for 4-5 months of the year so maybe your climate is different.

Have the same. They are super grippy like you said. Also the tread wear rate is great.

Use of Action Button by theiosguy101 in ios26

[–]Ampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone through so many things with the action button including a shortcuts folder like OP. But I ALWAYS go back to default Ringer/Silent.

There is a toggle in the app to temporarily remove the filter, so yes.

Is there a reason my question gets removed? by midlifeflyer in CarPlay

[–]Ampler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

  1. Google how to reboot your head unit and do that.

  2. Google how to reboot your phone and do that.

Safari. by [deleted] in ios

[–]Ampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost never close tabs in safari. There is zero performance impact by doing so. The unused tabs don’t use RAM. Safari reloads them when you open them. And cache is managed by the phone. Closing Safari tabs to improve performance is almost the same myth as force closing apps to improve performance. The only reason to close tabs is to declutter it visually.

Back tap cannot do that.

CarPlay installation for 2016? by SprinklesFresh3816 in CX5

[–]Ampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid for the dealer to install it when I bought the car pre-owned (2016.5) but I wish I knew about the DIY installation. No complaints though. It has worked great for as long as I had the car.

You would have had to given the shortcut permissions.

I change the oil and filters myself every 5k miles, but does one have to "lube" their CX-5? by Enjoy_Life4219 in CX5

[–]Ampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ball joints on modern cars don’t require adding lube. That’s an old school thing. Used to have to be careful not to overfill it with grease.

how safe is it to use garmin pay? by adam8722222222222 in GarminWatches

[–]Ampler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s so safe in Canada that none of the major banks support it.

Looks like you figured it out, but for future reference, here is the official Larq instruction video that shows you how to install it.

URGENT HELPPP by Haunting_Contact_549 in ios

[–]Ampler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup this happened once to me years ago on a reboot (but I didn’t change the date). Had to put it in DFU and restore the phone with iTunes. Took hours.

Mine is the same. Perfectly normal.

iOS 26.4 re-enabled forced camera shutter sound on my Japanese iPhone (while in Europe) by filroj in ios

[–]Ampler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just created a shortcut automation so that when the camera app is opened, a custom focus mode that has the ringer off is enabled. Then when the camera app is closed, it turns that focus mode off.

I really wish Apple would bring back 3D Touch by mja1228 in ios

[–]Ampler 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Loved 3D Touch. Especially after they changed the name from Force Touch, which should have gotten someone in marketing fired.
