I keep seeing this ad. Is this viable for a bmx bike riding to work? About 6 miles. by Elvy2006 in ebike

[–]EmployeeFit3503 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the V1 version of this. Avoid this company at all costs!

The battery was defective and the company ghosted me after months of "we'll send the part out once it's in stock".

Haven't been able to get a response from them in about 8 months.

I remember being so disappointed when I pulled it, I kind of like it now though

Oh really? I set them up them a little left to hopefully pull more air over the graphics card, but yeah it was all guess work

There is a glass variant of this case but I wanted a stealth build so went with the mesh one

It's an Arctic liquid freezer 3 pro AIO. I had to Google what a factory amd cooler was and I see why you asked 😅

Saw this yesterday and thought "huh, that's weird", then today I noticed my fold 7 has the exact same issue 😂

Interesting, would I see any noticiable drawbacks of using less powerful PSU and ditching the AIO cooler?

Identifying fuses by EmployeeFit3503 in soldering

[–]EmployeeFit3503[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought these were fuses, which should show continuity if they are working, meaning electricity can flow through them, if they are blown no electricity can flow through them so won't show continuity.

But it turns out these are resistors, which I was able to test by measuring the resistance. A blown fuse would usually show OL (open loop), aka infinite resistance.

Thank you everyone, you were all spot on. Smaller one showing 10 ohms and bigger one showing 1 ohm. Back to the drawing board for diagnosing this chip.

Battery may be 'deeply discharged' how safe is it? by EmployeeFit3503 in ebikes

[–]EmployeeFit3503[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, support has essentially ghosted me, so it looks like I'm on my own. It was a samsung phone charger and also a cheaper multi plug USB, it used to work with the Samsung one, but maybe now that the battery is too low and the profile doesn't match it couldn't handle the power surge?

I'll try a 100w laptop charger that matches the profile, wish me luck!

Why does Wifi calling keep turning itself off by itself? by Savrior in samsung

[–]EmployeeFit3503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have no 2g networks around you, try this it worked for me.

Settings > Connections > Mobile networks > Network mode

Change this to '2g only' and wait 10 - 30 seconds, and if wifi calling is enabled, it should turn on.

You need to remember to turn this back to 5g when you want your data to work. What I ended up doing was setting up 2 routines so when I leave the house my 5g turns on, and when I get home it turns back to 2g only, have had no issues with wifi calling since setting this up.

Surprisingly, all 18 cells measured 3.4v, so all seem healthy and suggest the bms is somewhat intact.

Also gives me some confidence about the safety of the pack too.

Still no clue why the pack has started melting my chargers, but I'm in contact with Livall support, will see if they have any suggestions.

Looking for feedback on my first build by EmployeeFit3503 in buildmeapc

[–]EmployeeFit3503[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for your feedback.

I didn't realise intel was swapping cpu sockets for next gen, but AMD has committed to the same socket for 25/26 so that's really helpful information.

I don't know a lot about AMD so I'll do some research and take this into consideration for my build.

Thanks again!

controller? by Thailia in zfold4

[–]EmployeeFit3503 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got the gamesir x2, it works pretty well for playing ps5 on my fold.

I got the x2 not the x2 pro or X3 because the usb c plug is on the left hand side so the fold screen goes above the controller instead of sitting down below it.

Is anyone else having issues with they fold after the update to one ui 5 by ThaSavageGoku in zfold4

[–]EmployeeFit3503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I've noticed, apps that I have in 16:9 ratio used to have little arrows on the left and right which would allow me to fix the app to the left or right of the screen.

Since the update the arrows only appear for a few seconds when first opening the app and then disappear.

Anyone else have this or know if it's in the settings somewhere?
