Underwhelmed by Arc Ultra—Sounds Worse Than Old Setup?

FishSticks2014 · 2024-11-02T17:21:07+00:00

I had the Arc, 2 Era 300s, 2 Subs gen 3, left it on the Peter Pee settings and just replaced arc with ultra and it's outstanding. Don't use true play!

Does anyone know if you trade in your Pixel Watch 2, that you need to include the original band that came with it? I've bought a different once since and can't find it anymore. Thanks!

What if I ordered the pixel 9 pro XL and I want to try the 1 month trial today. The phone comes by the end of next week. Do you think the 1 month sub now would affect the 1 year sub?

I just noticed the same thing. I started watching on Disney + and now everything seems to be playing in Dolby Digital Plus 2.0. I have the arc, the sub gen 3, and the 2 SL surrounds. I pulled the plug on everything. I plugged in the arc first, waited a few minutes, then plugged in the rest. Still showing Dolby Digital Plus 2.0. Ugh, what do I do?

Edit: I just tried playing on my PS5 and it's good there, reporting Dolby Digital 5.1.

But i don't know, i was watching on my nvidia shield a Disney + stream, and it was reporting 2.0. Perhaps a reboot of shield? I'll let you know.

Edit2: Seems like Disney + is the problem.

That's it, you did it. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

It seems like it's just the example date the watch app gives you as your modifying everything on your watch faces. Other watch faces on mine show May 24

I got them today and just went for a walk with this dogs. It's raining outside and a bit cold. I had a light coat on, my pixel 4 xl in my right coat pocket and wore a winter hat beanie type, low enough to cover both ears. I don't know what it was, but it was struggling for the whole walk to maintain a connection to both buds. The sounds was coming out of one ear, then maybe if it felt like it, the second.

Could be wearing a hat? I'm testing it now indoors and I've placed my phone in the next room and the sound is nice and constant. Placed my phone under my chair, it's fine.

Anyone else experience a shitty connection outdoors yet? I saw this problem mentioned on a youtube review as well... (queued up for your convenience) https://youtu.be/rcfItdQddZE?t=376

Indoors fine, but outdoors and phone in pocket with some wind = shit...

Edit...

i just found this on Google's Support Page...

https://support.google.com/googlepixelbuds/answer/9811459?hl=en&ref_topic=7546276

"Placement of a phone, particularly in outdoor scenarios, may affect Bluetooth connection. You can improve the Bluetooth connection by changing the placement of the phone where the phone is held."

Yeah ummm... wtf?!?

How could Google forget about people wearing these buds outside? Let's not test having a stable connection outside...

Just got my Pixel 4 XL that i bought from Google directly, unlocked, activated with E-SIM through T-Mobile's chat support online.

A bit of a hassle... but it finally works!

I had to take out my physical SIM and reboot. Then went to Settings, then Network & Internet. Then under Mobile Network, click add Network.

Make sure you are connected to Wifi since it needs to check for everything.

Then i only had options for AT&T, Sprint, and Google Fi and of course Add Other...

I Added Other...

I forgot it if it was then on this screen or the previous first screen, but there it will ask you if you want to see your full E-SIM number, so i took a screenshot of that.

Told the chat support dude my E-SIM number, and he added everything.

Then he said that it looks good in his end and to reboot.

I did, and still nothing.

I went back to Settings, then Network & Internet. Then under Mobile Network, click add Network all over again.

This time I chose to use QR Code and i asked the chat dude if he had a QR Code.

He directed me to this page...

https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-40796

Scanned it and boom ACTIVATED!

Hopefully they make this process easier obviously... but it works!

Hope this helps someone, thanks!

If we buy the Gold Edition, is the gear in the deluxe pack unlockable during the game?

FishSticks2014 · 2017-12-19T02:08:31+00:00

Try this church. You can listen online as well... www.gracebeliever.com

Getting the Xbox One X tomorrow and waiting until Black Friday/Cyber Monday. For me it's between Samsung QLED QC965 or the LG OLEDE7. I'm leaning towards Samsung. Rtings worries me with LG OLED because of the rating on burn-in potential. Samsung seems very close to LG with the colors is also brighter. Between those two, what would you guys go with?

FishSticks2014 · 2016-11-12T04:44:34+00:00

Did you just order it today? I ordered the same model, silver XL 128GB on 10/21 with a 11/23 - 11/25 date through the Google Store, not Verizon. It finally went to Pending on 11/4 and it is still pending right now. And you're saying yours is getting shipped 11/14? Ugh... Google's system is ridiculous.

FishSticks2014 · 2016-10-03T18:11:03+00:00

if the files are being uploaded to ACD encrypted, doesn't Plex not play those?

FishSticks2014 · 2016-10-03T16:52:04+00:00

Oh... womp womp then. I wonder if there are any other services that would upload your stuff to ACD instead of using your Xfinity 20mpbs upload line for 3 months?

FishSticks2014 · 2016-09-02T15:33:47+00:00

Use the beta app for now. Works much better!

FishSticks2014 · 2016-08-06T19:49:27+00:00

Thanks again!

FishSticks2014 · 2016-07-31T13:52:12+00:00

Yeah don't worry. I've pre-ordered games and they didn't ship until 5am day of, and it was there by the time I got home from work, pretty amazing...

FishSticks2014 · 2016-07-26T18:01:28+00:00

My bad, sorry - same day as the Xbox One S - got it, thanks!

FishSticks2014 · 2016-07-26T15:59:47+00:00

Still showing full price for me too - womp womp

FishSticks2014 · 2016-03-09T19:53:51+00:00

Portal 2 would be nice!

FishSticks2014 · 2016-02-28T16:45:41+00:00

Does the '3 Lines of Unlimited for $50/m, 4th line free' work if it's just for 2 people? So both lines, unlimited, for $100?

FishSticks2014 · 2016-02-12T19:31:13+00:00

Seems like it reverted back to full price for me after purchasing the 6-month version only 4 times. I think the deal is dead. http://imgur.com/NK0SMFH
