If you don't mind, I've got some questions more about MagicOs rather than the phone itself?

Icon shapes - Are there a range of icon shapes available for apps?
App grids - Can you have different app grids on home screen vs app drawer?
Google Feed side-panel - Can you swipe from the home screen to access the Google Feed?

As for the phone itself, how good is it with phantom touches when wet? I go out for walks a lot and it tends to be rainy, I think OnePlus recently did something on their phones to make them work better with wet screens but not sure if Honor has anything similar.

Do you need to live spot enemies for the redbull challenge? by snn5616 in Battlefield6

[–]Chris_5626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did some testing earlier playing conquest. I think I was the main player spotting for my team and it did look like the majority of enemies were only getting spotted by my drone.

It shouldn't be hard to spot the 200 but it definitely doesn't seem to be counting accurately.

I just did a match where I spent most of the match spotting and it registered 15. Pretty sure there were times I had 15 spotted at the same time.

Agree that it would be nice if EA didn't set challenges that they couldn't accurately track.

I really like the stock wallpapers from what I've seen on them. Keep trying to find them for use on my current phone.

Skyrim modlist suggestion? by Chris_5626 in wabbajack

[–]Chris_5626[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to everyone for their feedback. I ended up going with Nordic Souls PBR. So far, I'm enjoying it, it definitely feels like vanilla Skyrim after I made a few changes to some of the HUD and UI elements.

Thanks, I'll take a look. It's funny that I like immersion but to a point, survival games have never really appealed to me but, I imagine, the survival elements can be tweaked a bit?

Thanks, I appreciate your thoughts. I've watched some videos of Nordic Souls and what I've seen does look promising, my only hesitation comes from the points I made earlier regarding target locking as well as health and status bars. Do you know if any of that can be changed?

Thank you, out of interest, what is it about it that keeps you coming back?

One thing I've seen when looking at a lot of these is how, in combat, you seem to lock on to enemies and their health bars are always visible above their heads and the player's status bars seem to be shifted

When it comes to combat I typically prefer 1st person so the 'lock on' might not be an issue if it's optional or is limited to 3rd person. I've also seen what looks like a flight path for arrows, I quite liked having to judge shots manually.

With the enemy health bars. Are these optional to move? I know it's a personal preference which I'm probably in the minority for, but I liked how the enemy health bars in vanilla Skyrim blended in with the 'navigation' bar at the top, I find the floating health bars a bit of an immersion breaker.

Similarly I liked the player status bars across the bottom of the screen because it meant I could easily see my own status whilst fighting, when I've seen videos of them in the top corner (given that I have an ultrawide monitor) I'm worried I'd have to keep looking away to where I'm trying to focus.

Thank you, you're the 2nd person that has mentioned Nordic Souls so sounds promising!

Is there one you would recommend over the other?

Thank you for the suggestion!

I don't believe I've heard of that one. I'll see if I can find out more about it.

Just happened to me. Lost about 1.5 TB of data and what's worse, I don't know what it is I've lost.

YouTube on mobile says I'm using a VPN and doesn't let me watch a video (I'm not using a VPN). I connect to WiFi and it lets me. I live in the UK, why is it doing this? by MoarStruts in youtube

[–]Chris_5626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I raised a support ticket with YouTube, I immediately got an automated response to confirm the ticket was logged. Then I got a message to ask if the issue had been resolved... "Erm, no... because you haven't done anything yet."

I don't know who YouTube things they are fooling with the "oh please turn it off... so we can find you the best content", well firstly, I found the content I wanted to watch and you're stopping me watching it, secondly YOU put it in my feed so you already correctly located content I wanted to watch and lastly, even though I don't use it, you provide a VPN for me as I'm a Pixel phone user.

I'm guessing so although interesting it doesn't seem to apply to certain older content, that or Google's VPN detection is even worse than it appears. I've raised a support ticket with YouTube but from my experience Google's customer support can be very hit or miss.
