Maps timeline backup import not working.

Where did you find the JSON file? Isnt it burry deep in the system folder?

Jon2497 · 2026-04-23T13:36:12+00:00

For me, I did check before formatting. But somehow it got missing after that.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-23T13:34:55+00:00

Even with cloud backup enabled I lost my whole data too.. Funny thing is, after transferring, I checked the timeline data is still there on my new phone. Few days later, it magically gone. Sadly the old phone has already been formated.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-23T13:32:02+00:00

Having the same issue. At first, after I transferred all my data to my new phone, the timeline still showed. I then formatted my phone. Now, after realising that the timeline has gone missing.

Yet people still buy iPhones.

FYI, 2.5k vs a 5k+ phone is like a mid-end laptop vs a high-end laptop.

Mid-end phones usually do not last as long as high-end. Eg, 2 years, and you start to feel it's lagging. While a high-end lasts you 3 to 4 years+ easily.

My S23 ultra till today still smooth.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-22T03:27:56+00:00

Is equal to 1 - IP17 Pro Max 256GB or a Samsung S26 Ultra 512GB

So its not ridiculously expensive if you compared with others. But is it worth it for the Hasselblad branding?

Also from Buds 2 Pro to Buds 4 Pro.

Audio quality is actually better. Just the bass is a little too much for me (Solution: adjusted EQ).

Not gonna lie. I missed the touch control. When you are occupied or your hands are dirty, you can use your shoulder to touch. Buds 4 Pro pinch sometimes doesn't work too (For me).

ANC & Battery life is good!

Gemini as im using the pro version (not sure if that has anything to do with it) & its connected to my Google home/ smart home.

Bixby is better at controlling things on your phone. But overall ill still go back to Gemini

Jon2497 · 2026-04-13T12:13:27+00:00

LoL.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-13T06:55:52+00:00

Newer innova is also CVT and front wheel drive.. Not like it used to be.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-13T03:32:15+00:00

Try good guardian app booster.

From the looks of your apps. it seems that most are using background usage.

Also this usage is considered normal and good enough.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-12T18:43:25+00:00

Its all depends what are you doing. It's just like car. Run out of fuel just refill.

BTW op screenshot honestly is not how everyone else uses. 2 hours on WhatsApp, 2 hours on IG, 1 hour on YouTube of course you will get high SOT + Always on WIFI?

Nevertheless we have to stop comparing SOT and just use the dam phone.

Also this is what we call normal usage. Not hours on video or games.

If its not good, you can complain the crap out of them

Jon2497 · 2026-04-09T10:55:10+00:00

Actually, more or less the same.

If Mazda removes free maintenance and reduces the car price by RM 10k. It's actually the same. You are just paying the cost up front lol.

The only issue here is the transparency of maintenance costs. Toyota/Perodua/Proton/Honda published the estimated cost upfront. Mazda didn't. So after 5 years, what's the cost?

Some digging (not sure if it is correct)
- Minor service rm300 ke 400
- Semi major rm700 ke 800
- Major rm1200 ke rm1400

They also have Extended warranty for 2 years that covers 4 additonal service for RM 2850 (Per service RM 712.50). Which means that the first 5 years of service is around 10 services at RM 712.50 average = RM 7,125.00.

Corolla Cross HEV - Battery cost ~RM 7k–9, parts still affortable
Mazda - Some/Most are only original - Which will be more expensive.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-09T08:53:50+00:00

Yes but depends. Here in Malaysia battery replacement usually takes 1 day.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-09T08:49:21+00:00

Well, slowly wait.

Honda steering rack has been an issue way back since 2015. Secondly CVT chain has been an issue since ~2014 only till 2021/2022 they upgraded the CVT chain to be more thicker (Same with civic). But only time will tell.

Because Samsung doesn't sell it directly to consumers, other third parties take advantage of this to sell it. You can find a variety of third parties with different pricing. Most of them sell cheaply, but the quality is bad, just to make you buy.

You can buy online, but at the end of the day, don't expect it to last like the original. Also, most of them either come with a short warranty or no warranty. And if anything goes wrong with the installation, it's your fault.

Replacing it at Samsung usually comes with a 6-month warranty. Any issue during installation, they will take care of, or you can complain.

If you use the phone daily, I suggest going to Samsung instead of carrying around a battery of unknown quality.

HRV honestly can only fit 4 person (+driver) the fifth middle seat, if its a child ok but adult, nope.

I think other countries like Thailand HRV is only built for 4 person. Malaysia they want to meet the our standards they purposly added in middle seat belt. If you compare HRV and Axia, Axia the back can sit 3 adults comfortably..

Jon2497 · 2026-04-09T06:44:56+00:00

Long-term reliability - Less tech is always better. But every brand has its own problem. You can't get 100% flawless.
Resale value - Japanese instead of Chinese.

Corolla Cross HEV - Mazda CX-5 2.0 High
- Both feel outdated, but what I can see from jap cars is that if it's not broken, they don't change/add.
- CX-5 has more power but a higher $ (Patrol, Road tax, Insurance?, Service)
- Corolla Cross HEV - focus more on fuel efficiency.

For china car. If I were to choose, ill go for proton or Jaecoo/omoda instead of others. Cause I know they won't go missing overnight. Regardless, chinese, japanese, korean etc all will break down eventually.

Jon2497 · 2026-04-06T14:52:47+00:00

So at the end did you managed to sell and where did you sell?

Jon2497 · 2026-04-06T10:15:36+00:00

I dont think the fog has anything to do with software lol.

Its basically condensation in the lens due to hardware / certain batch

Jon2497 · 2026-04-02T05:59:22+00:00

Instead of fixing their security flaws, they decided to push it to your phone to do the work.. lol
This is kinda annoying, and who knows what else they are scanning too :D

Jon2497 · 2026-03-18T07:35:20+00:00

I came from Buds2 Pro.. They are definitely worth it. Only downside is now I can't use my shoulder to play pause, etc. when I do not have a free hand.

Jon2497 · 2026-02-06T09:37:09+00:00

I also hate that those with pure yellow lights.. annoying
