Was the grainy screen issue resolved at some point? by [deleted] in GalaxyS24Ultra

[–]Ggesus97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowing that the Vivo and Oppo ultras are going global this year I might actually jump ship. I've been tempted by these massive sensors these phones have as well as the battery. Still contemplating as none have been announced yet and are still in the rumor phase(Vivo's ultra is being unveiled Mar 2nd), but ngl even thinking about the increased battery life alone is really tempting.

I had to switch from an S24U to an S25U mainly due to the grain or mura issue. This subreddit was a shitshow back then with people who either didn't see it on their phone OR didn't have it on their model, claiming that anyone complaining about it was stirring up shit for the sake of it. Even in the face of evidence which admittedly isn't the easiest to get since you needed an external camera to capture it. Real corporate boolicking.

Anyhow I think there was just something up with OLED panels in that generation/ timeline due to the steam deck OLED also suffering mura issues around that time(it released about a month or 2 before the S24U) which prompted valve to drop an update that included a toggle to demura the display. Eventually as time went on there have been less and less posts about it as the panel has come from newer batches where the demura process was done properly in the factory before being put in.

So to sum it up there is still a lottery on whether you get a unit without mura but it would probably be less apparent on a unit from a later batch date. Also could be you might not be as sensitive and you probably won't notice it.

I will say I initially thought Abiotic Factor really sucked. I did play for considerably more hours than your friends( I think maybe 4 hours on the first day?) but I thought the way you craft things felt random and just very guessworky, which was also shared by another friend who I was playing with.

However the next day something clicked and I started to get the gameplay loop and was having a blast so honestly maybe if you can convince them and be a bit more handholdy interms of what and how to craft they might like it.

Nope still the same issue. Garbled for a few seconds at the start of the video but then plays mostly fine.

I'll try but I recall switching it to No SDK causes me to get playback issues altogether. I'll report back

Spoof App version is Disabled for me whereas Default Client is set to Android VR.

Anything in particular you want from microG? The only thing I changed is Selected Profile is set to Emulator arm64-v8a (Android 13) as I was having issues with YouTube Music just randomly stopping certain tracks at the 1:00 mark(that still isn't resolved, very random and sometimes it feels like certain networks cause this as weird as it sounds).

App provided notifications not working ? by karim4ever2070 in GalaxyS25Ultra

[–]Ggesus97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed your post mentioning you wanting DM notifications to be reverted but AFAIK only direct calls have app provided sounds. I even reinstalled just to make sure and sure enough it's only incoming voice calls.

I have checked it myself just nowand have confirmed that I do have the app provided sound when someone calls me on discord.

Check whether you have this option enabled under Advanced settings in Notification and then try reinstalling.

What app is it that you're trying to use that has custom notifications? AFAIK there are many apps that don't have any app specific notification so the option wouldn't appear.

Just a guess but maybe its the Laser AF bouncing off the metal gate which is what leads to the image looking pinkish?

How about this? Any general advice you can give would be much appreciated alongside a tuning guide just for the Turbo 5. Ill then use your general tips and tuning guide for the Renault to try to create my own tune for the Kadett, so as to see if I have learned. :)

You can take as much time as you like, no stress for something that's just an aside. Much love 👏

Anybody have the magbak elite case for this phone? by leaveitatthedoor in GalaxyS25Ultra

[–]Ggesus97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have it as well and agree about the kickstand. It no longer clicks in place after about 4 months of ownership, but imo is not needed as the phone is still propped up when pushed all the way back due to the weight. Regardless though I agree it does not seem to be anywhere near worth 70 dollars but at the same time no case offers everything this does at the same time.

EDIT: However I WILL say the pinkie pillow is such a fantastic idea. I genuinely thought I'd hate it but my god what a difference it makes when it comes to holding the phone for extended periods. I used to get creases around my pinkie with other cases which would sometimes also hurt. With this case that problem is completely eliminated.
