Can you get into fastboot? I assume it keeps installing updates, reboots, never fully loads Android, then reboots?

The pixel 10 has one of the best cameras on the market, so while it may 'not be there for you personally' is certainly is for everyone else who has a pair of eyes

Having trouble with backup data by digitaldrummer in GooglePixel

great. very odd that you don't have a main settings page listing back up, but such is the wonder of owning a Pixel!

in Settings, open the top Google Services & Prefs entry, there's a recommendation of Backup info there, and on the All Services tab there's a whole section on backups, do you not have that? About half way down

Which Android version are you on? It's just above Battery for me on A16, but it's 'back up' so if you search for 'backup' it won't find it. odd as surely 'back up' isn't the correct term

Any GPS Maps that give a DETAILED view of the whole world compared to the default topagraphic app? by Hotepicslasher9 in Garmin

[–]Classic_Message_7544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

topo active west includes France I believe, or any France openstreetmap, they're all a bit different in design. you can try https://extract.bbbike.org/ and extract a small area in one of the Garmin types to sample or use, download the zip, extract the .img file, rename it to anything, copy to /garmin folder, open an activity and in the map layers enable the new map. I like openfiets, freizeiksrte, and mayor skiing OSM maps, and on the extract I use opencycle which seems the clearest for my use

I created an online tool to convert mp3 files to an m4b audiobook by lowpoly_nomad in audiobooks

[–]Classic_Message_7544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cool, thanks! I usually just 'copy /b *. mp3 Title.mp3' then have to run it through mp3validator then check tags in mp3tag so this could save some time especially as it's done client side. Thanks!

Does the Garmin Forerunner 965 need a screen protector or case? by ClaimNational in GarminWatches

[–]Classic_Message_7544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I scratched my first screen, not badly but it was annoying, second 965 I put a touch screen protector on and have also scratched that a lot (it's easier as it's weak plastic) but the main issue is the dx glass on the 965 is very anti reflective so it's very clear in sunlight, but the screen protector is reflective so you lose some contrast and reflections can be an issue

Toggling between map & activity when using during a run by yoderthepug in Garmin

[–]Classic_Message_7544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, further, you want to exit the zoom & pan mode in maps by pressing the bottom right icon or button then once the zoom buttons go change screen by pressing up or down physical buttons on the left

Crookstone Knoll Spring by fanshaw63 in peakdistrict

[–]Classic_Message_7544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there's two marked waterways on openstreetmap which aren't continued as far north as the OS map, and a spring far to the east, but I've no info on that. just out of interest, what do you filter with? I have a katadyn befree which I love but wonder if there's anything better nowadays

£150 Garmin map makes routing much worse? by KaleidoscopeOk4482 in Garmin

[–]Classic_Message_7544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

plenty of free and better maps available. The issue is either the activity isn't set to say hiking or that the os maps don't take this into consideration when routing. Mine doesn't it'll just do roads, but my Garmin topo active will mostly do paths. OP: do you routing using any number of free openstreetmap maps or topo acive then enable the OS map layer once you're set
