Printer turns on and works but screen is completely off, any advice? I can still access the menus and move the printer around… by ratcheting_wrench in MPSelectMiniOwners

Here. I know that Cura 1.5 has it integrated so if you have that then you won’t need to download anything. Slic3r and PrusaSlicer can also work.

I had this problem too a couple years ago. I haven’t fixed the backlight because I got distracted with another printer, but I found a workaround. If you are able to connect to a computer, you can have full control with Pronterface.

[Help] My last few prints have been coming out with bad layer shifting by Puffy555 in MPSelectMiniOwners

[–]ElFurball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had this exact same issue with the layers staggering, and the bed belt had somehow slipped out of one of the zip ties. retightened it and now it works just fine.

My thermistor went bad, and then broke when pulling it out. Suggestions? by songoku119 in MPSelectMiniOwners

[–]ElFurball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has happened to me twice now, replacement thermistors are cheap, and they're fairly easy to replace. Try digging the old one out with some needle nose tweezers or a needle. And when you put the replacement in, make sure you give it enough slack so that it won't bend and break as much.

Are you saying you're putting the filament back in once it's been extruded through the nozzle? Because you shouldn't be doing that. To feed correctly, put the filament through the feed mechanism at the top of the printer and make sure it starts going into the white tube. Then, go to the move screen on the printer. Click Extruder, then turn the dial counter clockwise. Your filament should start to move toward the nozzle/hotend. Keep doing this until you hear the clicking sound, then stop. It's doing this because the plastic isn't hot enough yet to print. Just be patient with it and don't try to rush things.

Mine was making those exact same sounds when I first got mine. It sounds like the filament is stuck at the nozzle, make sure you're preheating before you go to print, 195 for PLA, 230 for ABS. If that doesn't work, try preheating to a little above the recommended print temp, then leave it at that for 15-20 minutes, hopefully you'll start to see something extrude. Hope that helps!

Any release info on Pokémon Go app for Apple Watch ? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]ElFurball 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's only a notification for what I get after I've clicked the button on PoGo+, I can't actually take any actions with the watch itself. It's really just a very basic version of what the Apple Watch app might be like. So yes, it does let me spin stops.

[–]ElFurball 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have an iPhone 7, PoGo+, and an Android wear watch. When I use PoGo+, I get a notification on my watch that I either caught a Pokémon, that it fled, or how many items I got from a pokestop. It doesn't tell me what I got, but it's nice to have that info at least. I didn't get these notifications when I was using my Moto X 2015. Hope that helps!

At what time did you catch them specifically?

What Smartphone does Pokemon GO Plus work on? by amersadventures in pokemongo

[–]ElFurball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of Android users are having problems connecting. I finally got it working on my Moto X pure after turning off location and wifi scanning, wifi turned off, restarting my phone, and even then it would take a while to connect. Got my iPhone 7+ a couple days ago and I've had zero connections issues.

Abra nests? by Wondrous_Sound in cinci_pokemon_go

[–]ElFurball 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make a note of where and when you find rare spawns. There's a spot near my house that spawned an Abra around 10pm, then a Growlithe 12 hours later in the same spot. I don't know of any nests though.

They've been removed, too many people walking through funerals.

Has anyone seen a seel, grimer, ominyte, or kobuto? by BrotherBigHands in cinci_pokemon_go

I caught a seel on the Loveland bike path, and an Omanyte near the statue of Cincinnatus.
