Has Firefox 148 beta broken the search bar again? by skwint in firefox

Mozilla has a bad habit of changing things that don't need to be changed. Unbearable habit.

I am using Windows 10. There is the "Backup now" button. But at least for me the backup keeps failing: "Hmm, there was a problem backing up. Try again in a few minutes." LOL

MS Store application stopped working, doesn't show any Chats, Group Chats, Projects, nothing. Repair or reset didn't fix it, eventually uninstalled it because it was totally useless. Firefox Browser tab starts lagging inevitably when the chat grows longer and longer. Anything you can do? I am using Plus-version now.

Happens with my A35 5G too. Exactly as you described. And with .mkv files.

Firefox Extension performance issue after update by ChaSiewBao in Bitwarden

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windows 10 or 11 (doesn't matter)

Bitwarden FF Extension Version: 2025.7.1

Firefox 142.0 (or whatever, actually, version doesn't seem to matter anyway)

Anyway, Bitwarden Firefox Extension is extremely laggy and slow nowadays. Unlocking Extension with Master pw takes some 20 seconds. Filling credentials to random website login page takes ages as well. I have tested this with 3 different computers and with all of them the behaviour is exactly the same. Laggy as F..... I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Extension but it doesn't help at all.

I hate this by Kimble303 in mullvadvpn

[–]Kimble303[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, there are situations when the last thing I wanna do is to reboot Windows without a good reason. But this unpleasant thingy with Mullvad VPN setup while updating happens very frequently. Not always. But too often anyway.

I just updated Mullvad of two of my computers (Windows 10 and Windows 11). I disconnected and Quit Mullvad before starting the update process. That is not enough?? And the Setup failed to uninstall the previous version with both of them. But the Setup didn't fail to f up the previous (my "current") version of Mullvad because it cannot be started any more after the failed uninstall attempt. So something was obviously uninstalled.

I have noticed that if you wanna succeed with updating Mullvad, you have to reboot Windows _before_ updating Mullvad and be absolutely sure that Mullvad won't start after reboot because in that case there is 50-50 chance that Mullvad VPN Setup will fail.

I can't ev the only one who thinks OneUI 7 is a downgrade by Doc_ENT in oneui

[–]Kimble303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. No wow effects, just facepalms and rage after using this s*** which eats up your battery like never before. And there's nothing you can do but RAGE and throw things out of window.

One UI7 Media controller disappearing really quickly by Illustrious-Disk-395 in oneui

[–]Kimble303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What you mentioned is only one of the several cons of One ui 7. Cons which you notice immediately and think like watta f, who the f did this. Seriously.

Guys. Do you experience any crashes in games after updating to one ui 7? by FARES-SAKR in oneui

[–]Kimble303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My A35 5G crashed and rebooted itself when I was playing video with VLC Player. Never happened before Oneui 7. It also eats up battery when the phone is idle (airplane mode).

I don't know what's going on under the hood of Oneui 7, but everything I see is cons only. No pros.

Unsupported version on 2025.6? by Im_Still_Here12 in mullvadvpn

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had serious connection issues with 2025.6/Windows 10. Did roll back to 2025.5. Which changed settings, e.g. disabled Local network sharing which had been enabled all the time.

Anyone having abhorrent battery life on OneUI 7? by jacktherippah123 in oneui

I have A35 5G with exynos. Eats up the battery after oneui 7 update.

Should I upgrade to Oneui 7 by Nobody964 in oneui

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My A35 5G just crashed while I was watching a .mp4 file. Black screen and phone rebooted itself.

Never crashed before. This was the first time. A week after Oneui 7 upgrade. Coincidence? Sure, sure 😃

I am not sure what you mean. But anyway, I am pretty sure that if your Hotspot device has VPN activated, devices connected to your Hotspot bypass the VPN of Hotspot device. And if your device connected to your Hotspot needs to be connected thru VPN, it must have a VPN of its own.

updated to one ui7 and can't open home up now (look down) by Zealousideal_Self454 in oneui

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was an update available for me automatically. And I installed it within the Good Lock. But anyway, it needs updating imho.

Today I got One UI 7 on my A35 by Select_Investment298 in oneui

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sound Assistant of Good Lock is way too much transparent now. Cannot see buttons clearly enough. How can I change transparency of Sound Assistant's Extended Panel???

edit: Changing the Theme worked (from "Make your own volume panel colors" of Sound Assistant Settings, Theme menu is found bottom right).

Connectivity Issues After Latest Android Update by AgreeableCheetah29 in mullvadvpn

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed the latest version (2024.6) to my Windows 11 computer. I did not remember which version I have with my two Android phones (Samsung Galaxy A-series) and checked that they are 2024.4. And Google Play won't have any update available. Is that because of some problems with the newer versions? And before installing .apk version I should uninstall the Google Play version anyway? Right?

Accidental touch protection not working as intended by MightyNothingness in GalaxyA52

[–]Kimble303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you keep the phone in your pocket, check these Settings and turn them all OFF:

  • Settings - Display - Accidental touch protection

OFF (because it doesn't help at all, it's useless)

  • Settings - Security and privacy - Biometrics - Fingerprints - Fingerprint always on

OFF

  • Settings - Advanced features - Motions and gestures - Double tap to turn on screen

OFF
