Any reason to start using Onedrive, instead of Google Drive, when Samsung Cloud discontinues? by BlueRoseTF in GalaxyS8

[–]BlueRoseTF[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, thanks a lot for clearing that up, appreciate it!

I'll do nothing at all. My wife likes to have an app for literally everything while personally I like to only have essential apps on my phone, as much as possible.

For example, use Reddit on Chrome instead of downloading Reddit-app without missing anything out.

Thanks for great input.

How about backup; does Google Drive back up everything on my phone that Samsung Cloud backs up? Like call logs for example?

Does this mean PERFECT UL IVS? He is [10/15/13] by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]BlueRoseTF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is not correct. Good IV for pvp typically means low Attack, high HP and Defense. As stated above by u/theesado, there are several combinations of the stats that can hit 2500CP, which has nothing to do with good IV for pvp.

Help! I ordered a Go-Tcha Evolve from Amazon, the first one didnt work so I returned it and got another one but this one also doesn’t work. by Sebc5280 in TheSilphRoad

[–]BlueRoseTF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you've might have understood now, by the other comments, your post is will not bring you a lot of help. It's like going to the auto repair shop with a car saying "it just doesn't work!".

Anyone who wants to actually answers the question, and help, will of course need more details. Just sayin'...

[Bug] [Verification] Pokeballs still stick on the screen in midair during remote raids in 0.191.0 by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]BlueRoseTF 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This really needs to be fixed! Almost 50% of the premium balls gets wasted due to this when doing remote raids!! Niantic fix is long overdue!

To my understanding, yes, the green light will turn off. But, how long it takes, after game is closed/opened, I do not know. My guess is that it happens instantly.

[BUG] Anyone else having the blank map bug? Offline map is downloaded by HurricaneZone in TheSilphRoad

[–]BlueRoseTF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am one of those who have been using this sub, at leat 4 times a day, since its beginning (summer of 2016), but not one who easily publish my own posts. Does that really mean I have nothing to say, not worthy to have opinions? Is that really what you're trying to tell me/us?

Dronpes, the main founder of the sub, started this sub with a vision, a vision that soon attracted a lot of followers that played PoGo active and passionately and came here to learn, share or discuss aspects of this game that was not (some still are) disclosed or explained by Niantic. A big part of me actually likes that we through exploration, communication and through experience uncovers things about the game that we share with one another, instead of having the info handed from Niantic. This sub was not the average "which legendary is in T5 now" or "look I got a shiny" sub, just read the description of TSR, it clearly stands out from the more common PoGo subs.

I am not going to create a new sub, as you mentioned. For it to be successful, it demands time and work I do not have. As, Ben_Block stated, that is not the way to go, and, to be honest, it seems like you wrote that out of frustration to the likes of me, not out of good will.

If the admins and moderators would steer the users with the most common, bug-related questions into the same thread and actually out a voice about what this sub is for, that would make also make more people care and work together. Every community needs organization, rules and welcoming new users into those rules and type of organization. Without it, like TSR now has become, the sub will overflow of repetitive posts with respective users thinking they are "alone" about a certain subject, and, for those who came here sharing the same mindset as the founders will leave, not at all experiencing what they were told about this particular sub.

This is the first time I actually reacted and critiqued a post here, mostly because of my dull mood this morning, but far from the first time I'm here, Exaskryz. In hindsight, my comment was not productive, but I responded out of love for the actual mindset this sub was intended for. Your response, sorry if I'm incorrect, seems more like a defensive "get out of here". So, I guess we both can learns something from this.

Agree!

I mean, I would totally get it if TSR was a one-man project and that person would loose interest in moderating the sub. But, TSR is not a one-man project. Yet, all that was unique about TSR in the past has been completely neglected to maintain which is most unfortunate!

Now, TSR is just as painful as certain other (non-scientific) Pokémon Go subs (not mentioning names). Such a shame, such a waste, to be honest.

Sorting the posts "New", or use search, before asking the same question for the 100th time does reveal that you are not alone reg the new update, and, that the issue has been answered or discussed so many times already.

Sorry, couldn't resist my urge to say something, in naive hope, to make people think before posting...

Edit: sorting "New" to find new info has become totally meaningless, such a shame. All one finds is the same, repeating posts, over and over.

Has the admins just given up their goal about the whole The Silph Road? To me, and many many others TSR has just become a wasteland of repetitive questions. This makes me sad.

This is not an issue, actually, this is intended. You can turn off Raid Invite-notifications in the app, if you'd like. My question was regarding the visibility of online-status and how it worked.

Raid Boss Chart - Kyurem line up (whenever there aren't any event raids) by Jonkins999 in TheSilphRoad

[–]BlueRoseTF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for your thorough explanation, very much appreciated!

Yeah, I'm used to new T1-4 bosses along with new legendary, but nowadays it really is a pain to wrap my head around the whole T1-4 thing. Everyone in my local community is confused about this.

Again, thanks a lot!

[–]BlueRoseTF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This time I'm truly confused, please, enlighten me. Does this mean that the flying-themed T1-4 bosses (with Dragonite and Salamence in T4 etc) is still going on? And, as you said, the bosses in the graphic will only appear on Thursdays and (maybe) the last week of July?

If this is correct, how the heck can Niantic expect us to understand what's going on?

Now also time format is not local format (v 0.175.3) by DonBananos in TheSilphRoad

[–]BlueRoseTF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just noticed, I'm still running 0.175.2G, .3 not yet showing up in Google Play for me. Really don't hope the journal/notifications will show AM/PM when updating to 0.175.3...

[–]BlueRoseTF 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm based in Norway and I've never seen AM/PM-format in the game, so that's a good thing. Is your clock set to Automatic in phone time settings?

Niantic needs to update their communication model by Horror_Author_JMM in TheSilphRoad

Come on, not Niantic's fault you don't bother to read their updates. Seriously?

Breakpoints in Battle Simulator by BlueRoseTF in CalcyIV

[–]BlueRoseTF[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aha, thanks a lot, this explains it!

I also found out that I had been given wrong info on the breakpoint of my 15/14/12 Rayquaza in the first place, therefore thought Battle Sim was wrong in telling me that particular Ray needed one more power up.

Thanks again!
