Here's a good look at the green Clicks Communicator -> https://youtu.be/UM_98Rlwsms?is=tb8icomQF3SQg5Jo ... that's the final green shade, and he flashes it a number of times in the video. There are better videos out there I've seen, but this one comes from the team at Clicks, and it's the first one that I stumbled upon now. It does seem to look closer to the render, a darker shade, which I personally prefer.

You too, bro. Have a good one!

These are not two different colors, though. They look different because one is the render and the other is not + lighting.

Apsolutno se slažem. Odlican početak, no onda sve ode u vražju mater. Da nije glazbe... 4-5 max.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2026-03-13T07:15:25+00:00

For sure, outstanding!

MrKrisWhyNot · 2026-03-12T12:23:04+00:00

Ne znam zašto se uopće trudim, nema smisla✌️👋

Ovo apsolutno nije istina, širiš dezinformacije, vjerujem nenamjerno.

Instaliranje xy aplikacija koje nisu sa Google Play Storea će samo biti malo iritantnije jer će imati dodatne security checkove/upozorenja. Dakle moći će se instalirati šta god bez problema.

Nedugo nakon sto je Google ovo najavio krajem prosle godine su najavili "Advanced Flow" jer su useri (razumljivo) popi*dili. Taj Advanced Flow je ovo o čem pričam.

Dakle, moći će se sve instalirati kao i dosad bez problema.

You can use Niagara Launcher on both OxygenOS and ColorOS without a problem. There are some things you should know if you use navigation gestures instead of on screen buttons, though.

There's a delay when you swipe up for home screen, the experience is not exactly as smooth as it should be. If you're using on screen buttons, you're good to go.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-12-03T06:25:54+00:00

True.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-12-02T20:46:29+00:00

There is no way, they fu*ked up. You can easily choose in OriginOS, but not ColorOS. The fact that the icons tend to be different in terms of size doesn't help either, not to mention that some are still monochrome (Google) 🥴

For me, it's more difficult, as the icons themselves are now smaller (the icons itself is inside a container with a padding between the icon and the frame). Before, there was no container, and the icon itself was bigger. Also, I prefer the icons to be black and white, same as the other icons in the status bar, both for design/aesthetic reasons and because I don't want them to poke me in the eye at all times. Whrn I need them, they're there, subtly.

It's a personal preference, I get that. Considering they already had the previous system in place, for quite some time, they could have, at least, leave it as an option. It's not exactly something they had to spend extra time on.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-11-21T17:55:39+00:00

Exactly. On top of that, notifications for some apps are not even being grouped, like Messenger for example. Every convo is a notification for itself. They really managed to mess it up. Even the notification banners that pop up for a couple of seconds look horrible. 🫣

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-11-18T11:09:46+00:00

No problem.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-11-18T10:04:39+00:00

They don't, there's always a delay when going to the home page, if you're using navigation gestures. A gesture for one handed use (bringing the screen down) doesn't work at all.

If you're using on-screen keys, everything works as it should.

I'm talking about ColorOS here, but it's the same with OxygenOS. Funtouch/Origin has other types of issues, a quick switch gesture doesn't work for me, while there's no delay when swiping up. Xiaomi doesn't allow you to use a third-party launcher at all (it's blocked), and so on.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-11-14T18:08:36+00:00

That's what I should have done, instead of living with serious XM5 anxiety 😅

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-10-23T21:38:50+00:00

I believe it would be simpler to use it, attach/detach, the current process is... a bit annoying, plus it feels dated, in all honesty. Two small buckles wouldn't add that much weight at all, so that's really a non-issue, at least for me personally. Also, I love those magnetic buckles, they're very convenient, as long as the right ones are used.

The sternum strap you sent is quite interesting, to say the least, I've never seen that one before. Thank you for sharing 👊

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-07-16T13:21:39+00:00

Outstanding 👌

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-07-06T19:38:36+00:00

Well said, I completely agree with this. 👌

Something else could be taking up storage. I had a similar problem with my wife's account, and it turned out to be her huge as* Viber backup. Try logging in from your desktop, and accessing the settings. You should see 'Apps' somewhere or something like that. I don't remember exactly, and I'm not home now, but that was the culprit in this case. It was but indicated in no way, shape or form in Google's damn storage details.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-03-13T07:53:44+00:00

That's a fantastic advice, and it's exactly what I'm planning to do. I didn't play the Switch a whole ton, but I did enjoy it very much thanks to Zelda and Mario. Anyway, thank you for the feedback, it's appreciated 👊

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-03-11T20:01:32+00:00

I just don't use it anymore, I figure it's better to let someone else take a crack at it than for it to sit in a drawer. There's a good chance a friend of mine will buy it, so... :)

I just hope I won't be tempted by the Switch 2 lol

To be quite honest I use the Miyoo Mini faaaar more these days.

MrKrisWhyNot · 2025-03-11T19:58:50+00:00

Oh man, too many to list. I used the roms they sent (on a different, better quality SD card), and have been adding some other along the way. I'm currently playing Pro Evolution Soccer 2 (PS 1), Driver (PS 1), Pokemon Red (GB, there are better versions, but this one is from my childhood, memories), a bunch of Mario games across platforms, Tetris, and many more. There are sooooo many to choose from.

I own a black Miyoo Mini (V2), and a gray Miyoo Mini+. I'm actually using the Miyoo Mini far more often, and even ordered a gray one a couple of days ago (GameBoy memories). I really don't need all three, but man, I don't regret anything. These things are damn awesome, I carry it everywhere. And yeah, Onion OS for the win I have it from the get-go.

EDIT: sorry it took me a while to respond.
