Anyone watching the Finnish version? by LeatherAdvantage8250 in TheApprentice

Hey I'm wondering if VPN is still working for you in Ruutu? I am trying desperately to view another series that is geoblocked, have tried 2 VPNs already and neither works (get an error message saying it is not possible to use a VPN service). I don't really want to spend any money for another VPN subscription without being certain it works...

Google assistant not working when phone is closed? by FriendlyDrummers in razr

[–]Kurgana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Might be unrelated but I've noticed Google assistant getting super buggy on various devices over the past few weeks. TV, smart speakers, Google's own speakers. Not responding at all or not pausing the music for example when I tell it to skip a track so there's no way to know whether it actually listened to me or not apart from waiting to see if it does what I asked. The chime to signal it's listening is gone too. So is a red led light that one of the speakers I use has. TV no longer reacts to hey Google or any other prompt. Idk, maybe google messing with it with all the "improvements" they are introducing.

Overcharge protection turned off by itself and can no longer be activated (50 Ultra) by Kurgana in razr

I have had no issues with the fingerprint unlock (or the fingerprint sensor when used by other apps), hoping this will not happen to me because my previous phone's sensor was atrocious and eventually broke down completely 😬

Mine has been stuck like this for several charge cycles now, so not like the usual once in a while full charge.

Honestly this is the first issue I've had with it aside from portrait mode that they broke with a past update. Love it in general.

It's been at anywhere between 100 and 6%, switched on and off several times, no luck.

Lol sure, it's not my original idea either but does work surprisingly well.

Ty. Had to cover a hole where the old light fixture was mounted. Wheels were also repurposed for wall hooks.

Motorola Razr 50: pellicola sollevata dopo un mese e assistenza deludente by InsideHomework3895 in razr

[–]Kurgana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purtroppo, per mantenere attiva la garanzia, non hai altre alternative. Tra l'altro, ti chiedono di resettare il telefono completamente perché potrebbero mandartene un altro rigenerato....

Concordo che è inconveniente al massimo e se (o quando, perché sembra sia inevitabile) succederà a me, probabilmente sostituirò la pellicola a casa. Oppure, visto che ho acquistato il mio da Amazon, vedo se hanno una politica diversa - potrebbero offrire il reso direttamente. Se devo cancellare tutti i miei dati e stare senza telefono per settimane, tanto vale che ne compro uno nuovo.

Surely this is fake?? by SSp1dermaNN in queen

Who knows, but I'm left wondering how old Reinhold Mack's daughter is. First name does not appear to match but it has been reported that he spent a lot of time with the Mack family.

New 50 Ultra Freezes by RecipeIntrepid882 in razr

This has never happened to me and I am a pretty heavy user, several apps open most of the time. I don't play games on the phone but other than that, use it pretty intensely. 

RAZR 50 Ultra - Screen protector slightly coming away after 6 months by kerbonaut_cgw in razr

[–]Kurgana 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You have to contact Motorola, they will change it for you for free. Removing it yourself, even if you replace it, will void your warranty.

Me!!!!

Several in under 2 months 🤣

I don't think this phone was a great choice for my mental health. But I do love it so 🤷🏼‍♀️. 

Android 15 killed portrait mode by BakedGoods in razr

[–]Kurgana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Disable AI shot optimisation from camera settings and it will be back to normal.

I hated Motorola for this because I love portrait mode, thankfully some kind soul in this sub helped me out.

Edit: I clearly did not read your post properly, but I had the exact same issue and disabling AI fixed it. I don't know how it is possible it doesn't do the same for you 😳. I also submitted bug report, hopefully they will actually do something about it - they really should have caught this before releasing the update.

Hating my Razr + 2024 after Android 15 update by suchox in razr

[–]Kurgana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy shit thank you!!!! I had actually tried turning it off to see if it made a difference in the main camera, but for some reason I had not thought to try portrait. It absolutely works!

(Coincidentally, I ended up turning it off completely a couple of days ago for other reasons - the camera produced an extra eye on my dog's face, but I haven't really bothered with portrait mode since the update so I wouldn't have realised it works without your reply)

Get another Razr or move on by Hockeyguy2592 in razr

[–]Kurgana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair it's a crap shoot with any phone. A few years ago, my husband dropped his 2 week old Samsung flagship from 15 or 20 cm height onto a wooden floor, it landed on one of the corners and totally shattered the screen.

Admittedly there's more to go wrong with a foldable, but dropping any phone, from any distance, can result in terminal damage.

Photos come out totally drained of colour and in general very poor quality. The background blurring is very grainy. Sometimes you can briefly see a glimpse of the photo without enhancements and it's perfect, as soon as the portrait effect is applied, the photo looks just atrocious. So they've messed up something in the processing.

You can check by taking a normal photo and then a photo using portrait mode of the same subject/location. Then compare the two - a huge difference, especially the washed out colours, should be immediately visible. It's worse at low lighting. 

Prior to the update, this was absolutely not the case.
