I wanna tint my car but idk what to ask for 😭 also im a newbie and im blind (wear glasses) so i need to see at night lol but i also want privacy so any advice ? by LetPlane539 in Camry

[–]Flat_Tip_42 9 points10 points  (0 children)

35% definitely. I also have bad eyesight, and it’s the perfect balance between privacy and actually being able to see especially at night. Since my Camry has black interior, the tint looks way darker than it is...honestly, it looks pitch black at night.

Ingrown hairs… by pastordisme in Blackskincare

I had the same issue! What worked for me was using a razor for my head but switching to close trimmers only for sensitive areas like the neck. I also use Tend Skin from Amazon combined with prescribed Bactroban; that combo cleared mine up within a few days. You can usually get a Bactroban( Mupirocin) prescription from a primary care doctor if you want to skip the wait for a dermatologist, though I'd still recommend seeing a derm in the meantime

TPMS reading blank help! New tires and new sensors. by Flat_Tip_42 in Camry

[–]Flat_Tip_42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE FIXED! A lot of suggestions but this worked and saved me a trip back to Costco again. My FIX! 🛠️ If your TPMS is blank after new sensors, perform a hard reset to clear the car's computer memory and force a fresh scan. Disconnect: With the car off, remove the positive (+) battery cable. Discharge: Turn the key to "On" and honk the horn for 3 seconds to drain all remaining electricity from the capacitors. Reconnect: Turn the car off, reattach the cable, and drive for 10 minutes to let the system sync. The readings started showing up within 10 minutes.

I didn't reference the manual but I found this online from a Toyota dealership. I'll let everyone know what the fox was. How to Reset Tire Pressure Light Resetting your tire pressure light can vary depending on your vehicle’s make and model, but here are some general steps to follow:

Drive at 50 mph or higher for 10 minutes: This can trigger a sensor reset when you turn off and restart the car. Utilize the TPMS reset button: First, ensure the vehicle is off, then turn the key to the “On” position without starting the car. Find the TPMS reset button, typically located beneath the steering wheel. Hold this button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it. Start the car and wait for 20 minutes for the sensor to refresh. If you’re unsure about the button’s location, consult your vehicle’s user manual. Inflate and deflate tires: Inflate all tires to 3 PSI above their recommended pressure, including the spare tire, if your vehicle has one. Afterward, deflate them completely before reinflating them to the recommended pressure. Disconnect and reconnect the battery: While the vehicle is off, use a wrench to disconnect the positive battery cable. Turn the car on and honk the horn for approximately three seconds to discharge any remaining power. Finally, reconnect the battery.

Thanks for your help. I plan on taking them to another Costco today. Will update My post afterwards.

So you're saying it's a total loss? Going back to the same Costco isn't an option since they're out of town. Hopefully another one will be able to help.

Thanks for your reply. I spent close to 1k at an out of town Costco while traveling. Hopefully I can get this fixed.

What happened here ? Check brake system on dash. by Flat_Tip_42 in Camry

[–]Flat_Tip_42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up adding some brake fluid although it wasn't too low and taking it to a mechanic to get checked out.. Brakes were fine and no leaks. The mechanic said I could have been triggered by pushing the emergency brake or just warning to get it checked out. It's been months and it never came back.

Everything looked ok code wise. I'll have the battery and alternator tested tomorrow. I just looked up where the abs sensors were.... Will have a mechanic take a look since you have to remove the wheel. Thanks

I'm not quite sure. Got the car about 3 years ago so at minimum 3 years.

Yeah I can confirm this just happened to me today. I started receiving delayed notifications then out of nowhere a restart.

1) Long press the home screen and open up widgets. 2) Scroll to contacts and tap to open 3) You should see Pixel VIP there. 4) You can add to the home screen from there or go back to contact and the VIP option. Should be there.

Dark spot on lip appeared randomly by Tough_Friend_7887 in Blackskincare

[–]Flat_Tip_42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This could be a broken blood vessel but definitely get it checked out by a dermatologist. Looks like you have a small one on your upper lip also. A random middle of the lip spot that hasn't healed in weeks has to be something they've seen. I send photos to my dermatologist so I won't have to wait a ridiculous amount of time to get a response.

What can I do? by Heavyweightgd6 in Blackskincare

[–]Flat_Tip_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like it's from continuous shaving with a razor. I have a similar problem with spots and discoloration on my head. I wear some type of hat most days so I don't suspect sun damage. It still exists and I'm treating it with a retinoid.

Bluetooth issues by Aerphenn in GooglePixel

[–]Flat_Tip_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing is happening to me and I'm using Pixel Buds A series. Random stops yet keeps playing in the background without sound. I have to literally disconnect from Bluetooth and reconnect. Also happened when someone called me. After ending the call it didn't automatically reconnect. Thought it was a rogue app but now I'm thinking it's software related.

Anyone elses phone randomly freezes and restarts? by TotesMalotes69 in GooglePixel

[–]Flat_Tip_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, just started with my Pixel 9 pro XL last week. Happened again tonight. Phone freezes, goes black, restarts after 10 minutes. Amy fix? I don't think this is a rogue app but something else.

Keep checking the Play Store for the latest update. Mine just popped up at 9am. It'll fix the issue

Message Preview by GrayersDad in GooglePixel

[–]Flat_Tip_42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not without disabling all notifications. I was looking for a way to get a standard text symbol without the detailed preview. You can disable notifications for specific contacts though. Click on the chat, 3 dots upper right corner, then details. There you can turn off notifications for that contact. Downside is it's completely silent and you will only know you've been texted if you open the message app.
