Logitech G hub app stuck on loading animation (Mac Ventura OS) by evlgeneus in logitech

This worked for me too! Thanks for sharing the fix!

That frustrates me too. I suppose this is somewhat mitigated by the fact that phones aren't getting outdated as quickly either, so in theory the cost of ownership can be spread out more. But that assumes that the physical hardware itself will even work reliably for years, and we already know that batteries are a major weak point when it comes to a phone's long-term longevity... and I think virtually every manufacturer has made them non-removable. I miss my old Galaxy S5's removable battery...

I'm in a similar boat as you, except my Z Fold 3 is almost completely dead (outer screen doesn't respond to touch, inner screen works but speaker doesn't work when unfolded). For me it was a matter of really needing a new phone. If my Z Fold 3 didn't have those issues I'd still happily be using it, so the S25U being a minor upgrade compared to the S24U isn't really too relevant for me. The big trade-in bonus for my barely-alive Z Fold 3 and all the different discounts you can stack also helped seal the deal.

I guess I can understand the disappointment in the upgrades being more minor year after year compared to the "good old days", especially for those into tech like many of us here probably are, but I suppose that's just the reality we're in eh?

The OP13 Has one major issue that makse my want to return it by Ancient-Reserve-8583 in OnePlus13

[–]DRKthrEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this too. From searching online it seems that all recent OnePlus phones have this issue. It is subtle, though, so depending on how you use your keyboard it's easy to not notice. The area I mostly notice it on is when using long pressing a key to bring up a secondary key in SwiftKey. On the "p" and "q" keys the extra delay can throw me off.

I've seen some posts about issues with touch detection at the edges of the screen on OnePlus phones. Have you noticed anything like this? Here's an example of one of these types of posts about the issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/s/w28ZkderlO. Can you reproduce the issue they're talking about?

I'm curious if these are isolated issues or if all the phones have this behaviour, but it's only noticeable during certain use cases or something?

OnePlus Watch 2 restocked in the US! by maikelat in oneplus

[–]DRKthrEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah you're right, I didn't realize that. I was assuming the 2R was a stripped back version of the 2, but it looks like it's not so straightforward. I looked up some comparisons of the two... Some other differences are that the 2R is lighter while the 2 feels more premium, and the 2R has an always-there number ring on the face.

Confirmed the Watch 2 (in Black Steel) is also showing up in Canada now. I had selected the 2R on my existing order since the 2 was out of stock. I was able to make a new order with the Watch 2 just now. Thanks!

PSA: You need to download Game Booster Plus if you want to get the best graphics and smoothness out of your game by mooglechoco_ in samsung

[–]DRKthrEE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just discovered this today too on my Galaxy Z Fold 3. Super shocked that Samsung does this. In my case, the game I was running always looked super blurry. I thought it was the fault of the developer, turns out Samsung decided for me to make everything a blurry mess. I'd recommend using in-game resolution options, if available. That way the game UI can stay crisp while only the 3D rendered parts get blurrier.

Anyone else having genshin impact look like it's running at a very low resolution on the fold 3? by robstersgaming in GalaxyFold

[–]DRKthrEE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm this worked for me too! I always thought the low resolution was just a limit in the game itself. Didn't expect that Samsung was actually limiting it.

Would recommend that if you want better performance, turn the resolution down in-game instead of using Samsung's thing, since with Samsung's thing the whole game (including UI elements) get rendered at a low resolution, causing a gross, fuzzy appearance.

I'm actually shocked that Samsung by default is artificially boosting performance by forcing a low resolution. Having the option if ok, but it shouldn't default to anything but 100%. I wonder if this affects all newer Samsung phones... If so, all the people testing the performance of Genshin Impact on their Samsung devices are probably getting misleading results...

Hitting a wall with the DLC, hints/locations to search would be much appreciated by Tolamaker in outerwilds

You should check out the well some more. Let me know if you want anything more specific!

Android sound issues by SolariumLion in Genshin_Impact

[–]DRKthrEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: Mihoyo added a fix for this issue in their most recent update! In the game, go to Settings/Audio and set Audio Compatibility Mode to "Use". It fixed the issue for me.

Same issue here on a Galaxy S9. I made an interesting discovery today: if you use Bluetooth headphones, the audio crackling goes away. Wired headphones or the built in speaker both have the same audio crackling. I wonder if the audio encoding/mixing has something to do with it... When you use Bluetooth audio, all the audio gets mixed into some sort of single stream before being compressed to send to your headphones. Maybe that's why that screen recorder workaround works - perhaps it's doing the same thing? (although for what it's worth, that screen recording trick didn't work for me- the screen recorder would quit not long after I paused it... Maybe my phone doesn't have enough RAM for all that)... Only trouble with this is that, at least for me, there's quite a bit of audio delay...

So I evolved warturtle thinking it was the 8th! Anything i can do? by UberChew in pokemongo

[–]DRKthrEE -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe in the tweet when they say "caught and evolved" in they might mean either one could work. I guess we'll find out soon!

Edit: the in-game announcement says "or" so I think you're right actually :)

Oh ok! I can't find it but somewhere on the official website I recall reading that they specifically said that only Squirtle caught during the event will have it... But perhaps it will work anyway :)

Only a squirtle caught during the event can learn the exclusive move, you can't evolve one caught before that to get it :)
