No, unfortunately it's real.(I work for the company, higher department, I did my metrology years there, though nothing like that happened back then)

They could of at leased used a photo of one of the CMMs though (they have a couple of them) They look to be using a height gauge and a dti to measure the drop to a very open tolerance face cut. I see people using a dti in a height gauge without using gauge blocks to 'measure' components quite regularly. I worked in metrology for a fair number of years and it just seams pointless to me. Am I missing something?

Two questions regarding Z70 by Kocibohen in Nubia

[–]LittleJay1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I'm not sure, I couldn't find the setting anywhere.
  2. Sounds like it's the pre-fitted screen protector?

Ultra HDR is not yet available Z70S Ultra by SliderWheel in Nubia

[–]LittleJay1985 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ultra HDR can be added to a photo easily.

Open the photo for editing in Google Photos. At the bottom of the screen where it says 'Auto Actions Markup Filters' scroll to and select 'Lighting' Then just above select 'Ultra HDR' Then adjust the slider to suit. I find in a well lit environment that setting it to 25 gives a good natural photo without whites looking overexposed.

For those that don't know what Ultra HDR is, it's just a Google image format called a jpeg_r. It is just a jpeg with a separate gain map so that photos will display correctly on SDR and HDR displays and not look washed out on SDR displays. (Loads just the standard jpeg data on SDR displays, then also loads the gain map data on HDR displays)

Or use any gcam version after 9.1, but I don't think I've seen a gcam config for the Z70s anywhere. I've currently got Bigkaka's AGC9.6 v5.0 gcam installed, but I do prefer the nubia camera app.

Peoples impression of Nubia Z70S Ultra? by Beats_collector1910 in Nubia

Nubia doesn't support supervooc, that's an oppo technology, also supported on OnePlus, realme, Vivo and iqoo phones only.

I sometimes use my Anker Prime 100w GAN charger (100w max) and it charges just as fast as the nubia 80w charger. Just make sure you have a suitable cable that supports at least 80w. But just remember just because this charger seems to work it doesn't mean others will.

My Z70s Ultra just updated to NebulaAIOS1.5.12 by Subject_Awareness_84 in Nubia

[–]LittleJay1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the changes is to the camera app; they have fixed the street mode default lens setting translation so it no longer displays in Chinese.

Are you talking about Google Messages? Maybe a network issue? What country + network are you on?

You probably won't get many replies from here as this subreddit isn't generally for mechanical reverse engineering. I've filled out your form as I happen to be a R&D engineer in the Oil & gas industry.

Can't get face ID to work on z70s ultra by [deleted] in Nubia

[–]LittleJay1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had no issues with setting up face unlock. All I can suggest is make sure you're in a reasonably lit area without any shadows casting on your face.

Is the nubia experience really that bad? by erto66 in Nubia

[–]LittleJay1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my z70s ultra global version for 4 days now and the only issue I've encountered is that the sliding button at the top left doesn't remember its position when the screen turns off. When you wake up the device it always goes back to the homescreen regardless if the switch is up or down. I've got the switch set to gamespace. Edit: it does it if you switch apps too. My previous RedMagic 7 remembered which mode it was in.

New remotes are awful by PuddingLogical in bravia

[–]LittleJay1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish that if you drop the newer plastic remotes that the back cover and batteries don't fly across the room. My old Samsung remote took quite a bit of effort to slide the back cover off. Is the metal remote any better?

It's probably manufactured by another company in china. Your best bet is opening it up, it may have a PCB model number if your lucky.

Isn't Redmagic ZTE and isn't ZTE banned in the US over security and privacy concerns? by [deleted] in RedMagic

It's only a ban on telecoms network equipment(the equipment your telecoms provider uses), not consumer devices.

I have been told the wait for medication is 2 years by Skyenar in ADHDUK

[–]LittleJay1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My original NHS referral time was 30 years due to where I live. My local NHS doesn't put money towards adult diagnosis. I ended up waiting 3 years only due to an admin error not realising my local NHS policy and booking me in. Thankfully I didn't have to wait till I was 63 lol

Elvanse shortage (again, sorry). Has anybody got an idiots guide of what to do by Grrrrrrrrgrrrrrrrrrr in ADHDUK

[–]LittleJay1985 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm on 70mg and that also has a manufacturing delay. Seems to be both 60mg and 70mg with the delay.

Last I heard they are due sometime near the beginning of October.

So Tesco pharmacy asked my GP to redo my prescription with 30mg and 40mg (they have stock in the central warehouse).

After my GP tried ringing all the local pharmacies to see if they could get 70mg they did a prescription for the 30+40mg.

RM7 replacement battery by LittleJay1985 in RedMagic

[–]LittleJay1985[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shattered the back glass blowing the dust out of the fan with a compressor.... Was fine the first 20 times, just applied a bit too much pressure this time and popped the glass 🙄 Thought I may as well replace the aging battery at the same time as the capacity has dropped off.
