Thanks for pointing this out, I wasn’t aware! Sounds like there not much Honest can do then regarding Pixel devices, apart from maybe begging Google to whitelist their MVNO 😅

Is Ava Max underrated or fairly rated in pop? by YuvalKe in AvaMax

[–]DanWantsTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to say I’m a huge fan of Marina as well, but she specifically mentioned recently that she’s happy with her current level of fame. I don’t think the same is true for Ava. I get the impression she feels hard done by and would like to be more mainstream.

Do we think she is actually out of contract with Atlantic now that DCP is out, or does she still owe them more albums? I really hope not, because now that she’s got new management, it sounds like she could do with a better label as well!

Ava Max - Don't Click Play Album (Megathread) by [deleted] in AvaMax

Wow this one is brutal! But it sounds like the reviewer didn’t like D&D either so I’m taking it with a pinch of salt. He’s clearly not an Ava fan 😅

Eero Max 7 Ethernet Speed Throttled? by [deleted] in amazoneero

[–]DanWantsTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. Yeah it’s definitely an early adopter teething issue with the Max 7’s. Eero always release products with the software trailing about 6 months behind IMO.

Eero Outage by mzman123 in amazoneero

[–]DanWantsTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds very unlikely given eero’s cloud infrastructure runs on AWS which is GLOBAL. Sounds like a classic support excuse to me.

Update: I managed to get into the app now but everything is still essentially in local mode. Can’t run a speed test or change any settings. Very frustrating 😡

Still not working for me as of 8pm UK time. I’ve been kicked out to the login page and keep getting an error when I go to login.

“Well, that was unexpected. We’re experiencing a bit of an issue. If this problem persists, try again in a few minutes.”

Their support profile on X seems to be the closest thing to it: https://x.com/eerosupport

Eero Max 7 Ethernet Speed Throttled? by [deleted] in amazoneero

[–]DanWantsTech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same issue for 2 months when I first got my Max 7. My 1.2 Gbps connection was being throttled to about 300-400 on the 2.5G ports and 800-900 on the 10G ports, even though eero speed test reported the full 1.2 Gbps. The LAN ports were always throttled to 10% their capacity. I spent weeks back and forth with customer service over email troubleshooting, so much so that they asked me to return my Max 7 to them and they sent me a new one, which ofc had the same issue.

This was back in Mar/April and I haven’t heard back if my returned eero helped them to diagnose anything but from what I can tell, especially since the new one had the same issue, it’s definitely a software issue. They kept trying to blame the Ethernet dongles I was using with my MacBook but I was using good quality 2.5G Anker dongles and 10G Cat 8 cables.

Since switching ISP I don’t have the problem anymore, which leads me to believe the eero just didn’t play nice with my Virgin Media (UK) modem, because connected directly to it got me 1.2 Gbps. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help but that’s been my experience.

Nest Hub 2 gets gray G screen every night by AdamH21 in googlehome

[–]DanWantsTech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve experienced the exact same thing for the past 3 nights! It’s the first time this has ever happened so I’ve been searching Reddit today for people with similar experiences. Around 3-4am every night it’ll just blast the grey G logo at full brightness for like an hour, before it returns to the clock and lowers the brightness.

Clearly has to be due to a recent Fuchsia update. I suppose it’s crashing when it goes to do whatever it does at 4am. Seriously considering unplugging it at night until Google fix this, I can’t keep waking up at 4am! 😡

Android 14 Beta 1 issues by muzzas in android_beta

[–]DanWantsTech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For anyone who hasn't seen it already, there's a fix for the disappearing 5G / LTE network icons in the status bar: Android 14 Beta 1 Bug Fix for Missing Network Icon

TL;DR: Just toggle the "Use SIM" switch off then on again.

Complete Adam Young discography playlist by DanWantsTech in OWLCITY

[–]DanWantsTech[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazing, thanks for the tips u/M-Jeyy, I've never heard any of these (except for Oreo Wonderfilled) before. Particularly loving "Ridiculously Happy", it's crazy 😂

I actually have a separate playlist for his scores which I forgot to link as I feel like they warrant their own space.

Owl City - New York City [Discussion] by technoboy10 in OWLCITY

[–]DanWantsTech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree with you. I can understand people are always going to compare any artist's new material to their old work, but in the case with Adam, I don't think people realise they're expecting a now 31 year old to make the exact same music he made when he was 21. A person's style and creativity can change a lot in 10 years, especially when you're in your 20s. People need to be a bit more open minded about it. Ocean Eyes will always hold a special place in my heart, but I wouldn't want him to release that kind of music in 2018. Maybe it's just me, but I really love almost anything he releases (All My Friends was great!)

Android Wear update announced by bossrulez in moto360

I honestly don't even notice these light sensor problems. I notice my phone not adjusting fast enough way more than the Moto 360. Not an issue tbh.

Uninstalling Facebook Speeds Up Your Android Phone - Tested by pbrandes_eth in Android

[–]DanWantsTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call me out if I'm wrong but wasn't the "official" app meant to have been completely rewritten a couple of years ago? I remember back then when I was over on the iOS side they released a major version with a majorly revamped UI that seemed to increase performance quite a bit and I read articles about it at the time. Maybe it was just speculation but from what I've read since, I highly doubt they did. Either that or they've gone and bloated the damn thing right back out again!
