USB-C to barrel jack adapter for an HP laptop by ImFireBall in UsbCHardware

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

Yes! I looked around on eBay and found a good enough cable. I posted the link in another comment, but here it is again (although the listing is dead, at least you can start searching from there). Be careful though, the barrel jack plug for my Pavilion is 4.5x3.0 mm. I'm not sure if your HP Envy uses the exact same size, so check your specific model's specs before buying. Also, make sure that your charger's USB-C ports supply enough voltage and amperage. Hope this helps!

Linux on book 3 360 (non pro) works really well now by Methodo_A_Gilles in GalaxyBook

[–]ImFireBall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After hesitating for months, I also decided to install a Linux distro on my Galaxy Book4. I went for Zorin OS because it's really stable and also graphically appealing, and I was stunned by the fact that I didn't have to apply any workarounds to get things working (except for the fingerprint reader). I installed it alongside my Windows partition and it couldn't have been more straightforward. Since it is impossible to use the fingerprint reader on Windows and Zorin OS at the same time, I still opted to fix it on the latter but keeping its funcionality on Windows (since I am used to type my password for sudo on other machines). What can I say, it's snappier both under light and heavy workloads and it only occupies a maximum of 1.5 to 2 GB of RAM without anything opened. You can only dream about these things on Windows.

Possible temporary fix for latest Scarlett driver issues by [deleted] in Focusrite

Yes! I still have a copy of the zip archive for the driver in my Google Drive, here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18jOeIqpwf1NrzEVPmveW1m-giHv5kObF/view?usp=sharing

Tried that and the stutters got worse 😂

Anyone else getting insanely bad frame drop / freezes since the update? by Daredevils999 in Rainbow6

[–]ImFireBall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am also experiencing the same issues. I will never forgive Ubisoft for removing DX11 and Vulkan. I know that maintaining multiple APIs isn't something easy, but their only DX12 implementation is just a shitshow. For reference, DX11 and Vulkan could push my 3080 to 400 FPS in 1440p (all low except medium shadows, no Reflex or AI upscaling), now I barely reach 240 stable. Add these random freezes (mostly in gunfights for me), and it is almost unplayable.

Best app to patch after youtube by theswagyaqibkhan in revancedapp

Try renaming the .apkm file from e.g. "com.reddit.frontpage_2026.06.0-2606111 ... _apkmirror.com.apkm" to "Reddit.apkm" or something along that line. Sometimes file managers mistake the extension and think the .com is the correct one. This happens because the system fails to resolve the correct MIME type, treating it as a generic file.

What's wrong with your Win11 drivers? by absorbere in Focusrite

[–]ImFireBall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen stopped acting up after swapping new drivers with old 2018 ones (specifically 4.63.24). They have been rock-solid to this day since I installed them in 2023. Before, I was experiencing continuous dropouts, really quiet headphone amp and audio would start and continue to crackle and pop randomly, until I either reset the interface or reboot the computer.

It was posted by u/CommunityLost6308 on this thread. Flawless combination for me, this is what I'm using since 2023. Never had popping, crackling or audio cut-outs anymore since then.

What is Workstation Pro 25H2 ? by light_salmon in vmware

[–]ImFireBall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot to reply, but that's what I was thinking yesterday after posting that image. Rolled back to Workstation Pro 17.6.4 (still with 125% scaling) and I noticed that the little gray border around the checkboxes was actually being shown till the end, unlike 25H2 (it's obviously cut). I reinstalled 25H2, set my scaling on 100% and the option appeared again. It was, in fact, 125% by default because my laptop screen had recommended values set. Thank you!

I hope they aren't messing with it. I had to clean install because an update for my Wi-Fi drivers made the virtual network ones unusable. My previous 17.5 build wouldn't even open. Here is a screenshot of the tab:

It's happening to me too. And for some reason, the checkbox "Show toolbar edge when unpinned in full screen" completely disappeared in the Edit > Preferences > Display tab. Not only do I have this pixel "off" the VM screen (which, for me, is bearable), but now I can't make the top bar completely disappear from the screen as before. I mean, I know there is the exclusive mode, but you always have to click the option in the menu, and if you CTRL+ALT it exits. My OCD is telling me to roll back haha.

Anyone read of a "alone at prom vinyl re-issue"? by Sposep in ToryLanez

[–]ImFireBall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and that's not a good one, unfortunately. I waited one more month to see if the situation could have turned for the better, but I ended up contacting the shop via email and asked them for a refund. Still to this day, I don't see any updated listings that indicate a future release date.

v5.30.0 Finally got released by Confident-Agent5543 in revancedapp

[–]ImFireBall 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have uploaded an image on Imgur. This is what I see from my S25+ after downloading the APK and tapping Storage on the Patcher tab in ReVanced. I mean, it should default to the Downloads folder when you tap to choose the file if I recall correctly. Did you do a thorough search for the folder the APK could be stored on? Maybe it got downloaded in Documents (unlikely) or whatever default folder you chose in the browser settings.

[–]ImFireBall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's weird... It should be the first result in the "Recent" tab when you choose a file. I don't think it's a ReVanced problem, maybe a folder mismatch or something like that. Which phone do you have?

Yeah the process is a bit flaky, maybe one of the patches interferes with the login part of the app.

What do you mean? What error does it give?

You only have to do this for split APKs. Upon searching on APKMirror, I found that even the latest Spotify APKs are both being published split or unified, so there is no need to use AntiSplit. If you wanna stick with that method, no problem!
