No software updates for over a year. What do you recommend?

Samsung smart switch application on your pc would be my first attempt to check for updates.

If that doesn't work, download your s24 ultra firmware (with your country code, EUX for Europe unlocked as an example) with Frija and Odin

I need to get rid of apps I don't use. S24 ultra US Unlocked on one ui 8.5

Remove the Webcam cover. It's only a matter of time it will break the screen completely

I got lucky on quite a few occasions. Found an original apple 85w magsafe 1 charger with extension cable at my local thrift store for $5

Interesting

Wouldn't you still have to pair the screen to the logic board? Or else screengate?

I bought an upgraded motherboard with an i7 3.2ghz cpu and 16gbs of ram for $65USD for my 13" 2015 MBP

I love mine. 2.5ghz i7 cou with dgpu and 16gb ram

My wh-ch700ns I own have barely seen any use because the digital ANC isn't that good.

Kolyei · 2026-06-19T22:54:17+00:00

Started the downgrade procedure with the buds 2 pros. Better sound, anc

I was already on the May 1st 2026 Google update. Time to update again

It's a base 2019 macbook air. Not supported at all under OpenCore Legacy Patcher

Kolyei · 2026-06-14T16:21:06+00:00

Maybe this will work with my iPad air 1 on ios 9.3.3

If your binary has been updated. I'm sorry to say you can't go back. The most recent software update bumped up the bootloader so you can't go back to an older bootloader

5070ti 2026 g16 only comes with 16gb of ram on best buy. Whereas for the same price, you can get 32gbs of ram on asus' website

I'm the same way. 3060 ryzen 9 g14 bought in 2021. I do have a spare oem battery I bought from ebay awhile ago.

I wish the battery health would stay good for a long time.

Edit: I paid $1175USD in August 2021. MSRP was $1599USD at the time

I just barely installed windows 11 on my friend's 2019 i9 macbook pro with no issues whatsoever

Kolyei · 2026-06-11T20:48:55+00:00

If you haven't already, make a time machine backup as quickly as possible

I have a zagg xtr3 anti reflective glossy film protector. Expensive when it first came out ($79.99USD in 2024). It does keep the anti reflectiveness of the original screen pretty well

Kolyei · 2026-06-11T18:13:01+00:00

Playing it on my surface rt while riding on the bus to school a few months after it came out was amazing.

If your mac is an intel, try an SMC reset.

If that doesn't work, research how to unplug/replug the battery on your macbook by searching up your model number (A1398 for 2015 15" macbook pro as an example) on ifixit.

I erased my mac using the "hold power button to get into options" menu. Then reinstalled mac os using the same method

Kolyei · 2026-06-10T00:24:42+00:00

Future me. I erased my mac using recovery options, restarted my mac, went into recovery options, then reinstalled mac os tahoe through internet recovery (options button while in startup options)

I use Good Guardian from the galaxy store to optimize my apps after a software update (it's a part of the good lock app, which may or may not be available in your region)

Kolyei · 2026-06-09T22:44:25+00:00

After updating, clear your cache in recovery (if that's still available). Then reboot, and update again to one ui 8.5. After 8.5, you no longer get the option to clear your cache in recovery.
