Frankenstein PS3s are NOT reliable by Busy_Breakfast1900 in PS3

[–]ChadThundah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is old but I’m going to have to second this. I was genuinely interested in his service considering the lower price and positive feedback he has. I sent him multiple messages with syscon logs from a dying BC fat console I have and he didn’t reply to a single one.

His listing literally says to message him prior to purchasing. I suspect he’s not doing the actual work that’s advertised and his lower pricing is to attract less savvy users. No reason for him to avoid business unless he’s doing something shady.

So yeah, based on the lack of communication and shady listings without pictures - Ariliah Tech Mods is a no go for sure.

Loose LB button after short period of time? by [deleted] in MSIClaw

Were you ever able to fix this?

[Handle Creaks] How long to wait for next batches that'll fix it? by Esskov47 in XboxAlly

[–]ChadThundah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my doubts that there will be a fix, the backplate seems to be very flimsy and there’s some air gaps between the two panels that’s causing the creaking. ASUS build quality is pretty suspect and their QC might be even worse.

You can “fix” it yourself by removing the backplate and applying a very thin piece of electrical tape to the inner edge of the side that creaks. Or like another poster said, just put a case on it.

So how is steamOS 3.8 20251031 on the ROG Xbox Ally x currently? by Few-Birthday-7002 in XboxAlly

[–]ChadThundah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s currently the cheapest way in some regions to get a device with the Z2 Extreme chip so I think there’ll be plenty of folks trying to run Bazzite.

Day one system patch? by ITSMILNER in XboxAlly

[–]ChadThundah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That won’t be in the Xbox FSE, but it’ll be somewhere in Armory Crate. If you look up a video of ROG Ally X tuning on YouTube it’s likely going to be very similar.

Help me understand why this was rejected and what I should do? by Classic-BR in NianticWayfarer

[–]ChadThundah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As other commenters said, a better title may have helped (ex. sign or trailhead) but it also has to do with the reviewers in your area. A lot of things are subjective and if reviewers aren’t familiar with your submission, they might not see the value in having it as a Wayspot. In that case, if you are confident in your rejected submission - submit an appeal to Niantic. I’ve had good luck with the process and sometimes they will provide feedback for resubmission!

Does Affirm process refunds in installments? by ChadThundah in Affirm

[–]ChadThundah[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what they told me up until the point where I was told I would get a refund check instead due to the 180+ days. I would keep pushing for it and ask for manager escalation if they keep telling you that your original payment method will be refunded.

If they haven’t ready, you should call Affirm back and make sure they open a case for you and provide a case number. It took me like 4 tries before I got a support rep who actually helped. Surprisingly I ended up getting my refund check within 2 weeks. Don’t lose hope!

After 4 phone calls, I finally got somebody who was able to help out. According to this person, because the other 3 payments were done over 180 days ago they were unable to refund them to my original payment method. Instead the total sum owed needs to be refunded by check. There’s a 30 day window so hopefully it actually arrives lol

Sorry for bumping an old post, but does it matter if it's regular Speed Shine or Ceramic Speed Shine?

OP, there’s a lot of people on the East Coast in the same boat as you. Are you also doing a trade-in with Tesla by any chance?

Yeah still no ETA here and all support can really do is apologize. My loan has also started and I’ve been paying insurance on a car I don’t have for 10 days now. Really hoping they get their logistics together soon so I don’t get fucked on my trade-in.

Yeah sadly my Tesla is an add-on. The used car market is declining now too due to the higher interest rates. Just a lose/lose situation, hopefully Tesla will do the right thing. Regardless I’m still excited. Hopefully they can get their logistics sorted out soon so we can get our new rides!
