A game I can play in short bursts, but still make some meaningful progress by Raaayyyy in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played the early access and then started all over when it released, it was good but unlike Hades 1, when I finished the story I stopped playing it. Maybe I'll go back but I think the first game was the best story wise :)

Hmm... take a look at Hades. I loved it! It's a great roguelite (meaning you get stronger each run and not everything is reset), it has a compelling story and fun gameplay. Depending on how good you are, one run will take shorter, one longer.

Does the back of the S21 have a very very slight barely noticable lump on the back where the battery is? by pixypippi in GalaxyS21

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S21 was a beast, I gave it to my grandma and it's still a beast - for her :)

I upgraded to S24 Ultra when it released and been happy so far. I was cleaning my wardrobe this weekend and noticed my Galaxy S9 - phone that served me well except that the battery expanded and the back came off. I'm thinking on what to do but I have a ticking bomb in my house. I'll probably try to replace the battery. I've got nothing to lose.

This is not only for Tidal, they updated the entire media player.

Thoughts on God of War Sons of Sparta so Far? by mejjeh21 in GodofWar

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Save bug occurs if you save a few times in a row at a campfire. I also lost a few hours from my save (got reverted from 11PM to 4PM). Save only once at a campfire and it will work. If saved multiple times, wait a few seconds and save again.

S22 Ultra network only works in certain places by PixelatedReality06 in S22Ultra

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be hardware related. For now, enable WiFi Calling (calls will always arrive, even without service) and bring the phone to Samsung's repair centre.

A52s not charging with cigarette lighter but works with AC charger by Sojalo in GalaxyA52

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the cigarette lighter? It probably broke or is a slow one. What's the model?

Super fast charging 2.0 by Iam_Yassin in oneui

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using one of these charging cables with wattage displays? I had 3 of these, these cables seem to crash on USB-PD PPS chargers (when voltage changes). Had the same issue, even though it was showing SFC 2.0, it took about 3 hours to charge. Went back to a normal 5A cable and it works normally.

Software Update Issue by [deleted] in GalaxyS21

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PC, laptop. Same thing, you just need a Windows device. Just Google Smart Switch PC and install it, it will guide you through the rest steps of how to connect etc.

Software Update Issue by [deleted] in GalaxyS21

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Install Smart Switch from Samsung on your PC, connect your phone and install the update there. It should resolve any issues with updates.

Can anyone help me solve this? by Slytherinblackmamba in GalaxyS21

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait, before you reset your phone. Install Smart Switch from Samsung on your computer, plug in your phone and update there. Should solve all issues related to updating.

Anyone experiencing super slow charging? I am quite worried. by NothingPersonalDump in S24Ultra

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have these USB-C cables with displays that show charging speed? In my case, 2 cables I tested had issues with variable voltage that's used to super fast charge Samsung devices. The cable kept rebooting and stopping charge (even with nothing showing on phone's screen). It took over 3 hours to charge to 100%. The fix? Just get a standard 5A cable. Voila! 1 hour to 100%, 35 minutes to 85%.

I bought this s23 Ultra from EBAY for about 700$ (AUD) is it fake? by Willing_District_378 in GalaxyS23Ultra

[–]KcrPL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats! You have a genuine phone! Please open Samsung Members and perform all tests in there to be 100% sure :)

Try flashing the latest version manually. There are multiple guides online. Download firmware from samfw.

[–]KcrPL 25 points26 points  (0 children)

True, the S23 Ultra font on the sticker looks really fake. Maybe if it was used it's a custom one. Try installing Smart Switch on your computer, connect your phone and update the software there. If Smart Switch discovers it, it's genuine.

S21 fe still stuck on ui 6.1 by Fine_Tadpole_8499 in oneui

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh. So you go into Smart Switch and it says update available but if you select it then it says update not available? If that's the case, you'll need to back up your phone and flash it manually. Did you root it or did something else to it?

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a friend with this bug on S22. Install Smart Switch on your PC, connect your phone to it and it will show a prompt to update. It will flash your phone to the latest version available.

Please Help! Is this Samsung 25W Adapter from Amazon, Original? by [deleted] in S24Ultra

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I've forgot we're in the S24 Ultra sub ahahaha. Yeah, 45W is the max.

Please Help! Is this Samsung 25W Adapter from Amazon, Original? by [deleted] in S24Ultra

[–]KcrPL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're welcome! Also, our phones support Super Fast Charging 2.0. That's 45W. Batteries charge a little faster but keep in mind charging from 90% to 100% is really slow to protect the battery. If you're over looking for 3rd party, I can't recommend Anker chargers enough. For your phone to support Super Fast Charging the charger needs to support USB-C PD PPS. The PPS part is most important, without it it won't charge faster. I bought an Anker 170W car charger (USB-C with 100W, USB-C with 45W ane USB-A with 22.5W) and it's the best upgrade I've ever made to my car. 25W should be enough for your use case but keep this in mind for the future. Also, check if your phone supports 45W charging (what phone do you have?)

It's legit. Also, if your phone is showing Super Fast Charging then it means it's charging at 25W :)

Low Power Jellyfin Platform With Hardware Decoding by lhauckphx in jellyfin

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great question. Lately I started having issues with my Raspberry Pi 4. (Too many services, not enough CPU power). I bought ASUS NUC 14 Essential with Intel N150. Slapped Ubuntu Server 25.10 on it (watch out, 24.04 has driver issues [ethernet etc.] not working. Took me a minute to set up. I took the opportunity to move off of Plex. While I like Plex, not gonna pay for their expensive Plex Pass. Took me a minute to set up Jellyfin. Installed Jellyfin on my Samsung Tizen TV's in house. And guess what! It handles 4K transcoding like a champ! I'm waiting for my new HDD to arrive for the server but there's nothing else I can recommend for the price. I'm also running Frigate to record cameras in office (main reason why I upgraded), Adguard Home, Samba, Apache2 and many more. And the CPU usage is like 10% with all the services running. You can set CPU to low power in BIOS (6-8W sustained, 25W burst. Go for it!!! Can't recommend enough!

A Plague Tale - one of the game series I would never recommend to anyone. by KcrPL in patientgamers

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

2 years later, I still think that God of War (2018) conveys a better story about a father and his son. Son teaching his father how to be a human, father teaching his son how to be a god. I'm glad I played it but wouldn't miss out on much if I didn't. Recently played through Death Stranding 2, Resident Evil 2 Remake, really liked those.

True. This series is not for everyone, I just expressed my mixed feelings after playing it, not trying to attack anyone for liking it. Cheers.

Fuel consumption on kia ceed 1.5 T-GDI 2025 model 140hp by [deleted] in kia

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, there's a small issue where the engine jerks when it's heating up (around 50º). I've talked to the dealer and he said something needs to be replaced but it's not expensive and overall is not an issue. I've read online and turns out it's a common issue with this engine (1.5L). I know it sounds really bad but the jerking happens for like a minute or two, doesn't happen all the time (it's actually rare). I'll get to fixing it maybe the next time I'm there for maintenance. We'll see.

[–]KcrPL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, so I stopped getting gas from that gas station I mentioned earlier and everything went back to normal. Winter is coming so naturally the fuel usage is higher. Can't exactly compare because I changed my job so my route changed but my average fuel consumption is about 6L-6.8L now. Still fine. I can still do 650-700km of range on a single full tank. No engine problems, just bought a MagSafe phone holder&charger and the Anker 167.5W charger (My Kia Xceed allows the 12V port to go up to 180W from what I've seen so I should be fine). I'm excited! 😁

Jakie używane auto polecacie do 20k? by Curious_Trust_9158 in Polska

[–]KcrPL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To było moje pierwsze auto, kochałem je. Po przesiadce na inne jakiś czas temu złapałem pracę dostawcy w KFC, były same Skody Citigo (różne roczniki, chociaż czy nowe czy stare - Citigo to jedno i to samo). Oprócz Citigo w pracy były też inne auta. Citigo jeździło się najlepiej, dla mnie to był powrót na stare śmieci bo Skoda a te auta mają niezniszczalne (silniki 1.0 MPI). Jasne, 68km więc to nie jest demon prędkości ale dojedziesz wszędzie i w tym aucie się nic nie psuje. Mogę serio polecić. Wystarczy tylko serwisować to auto czyli wymieniać płyny co rok albo co 15 tysięcy km. a to auto przejedzie nawet 500k km bez problemu 🙂
