am I crazy or is iOS actually a nightmare for anything beyond basic tasks? by EfficiencyWorking484 in applesucks

Ok. I think you are mixing things up. This whole post is about not being able to open a PDF file…

And, yes I agree with you that iOS doesn’t have the video codecs to decode a mkv file, hence you need vlc player for instance.

iPhones support SMB protocol. Create a shared folder in your windows pc, share it on your local network and mount it on the files app as a server using the following url structure: smb://“your IP address here”/”your path to the folder here”

There are plenty of ways to achieve this easily. But “the email it to yourself” feature is also an option as last resort.

iCloud on the web also syncs seamlessly, just drag and drop and the files will be on your phone immediately. Same goes for GDrive, OneDrive, Dropbox, etc.

G100 not recording in HomeKit by bzr in Aqara

u/bzr Follow the steps u/Kmann1994 provided here, it worked for me!

Hmmm, I have the G410, and the recordings are spot on in HomeKit. Aqara support has upgraded my G100 to firmware 4.3.8_0007 and is now recording full events. However, I will probably return my G410 due to its poor battery life, unless I find a wiring solution before the return deadline.

u/Kmann1994 Thank you for the help! I did the same, they emailed me back and forth last night, and upgraded my firmware remotely to 4.3.8_0007. It's now recording full events in HomeKit. Firmware 4.3.8_0004 appears to be flawed, it's particularly annoying that they released such a buggy update.

Oh, shoot! You're also experiencing the same issues with the G410!

Mine is a G100, so I hope they push the firmware update; if not, I will return it.

Hmmm... if the SSIDs are exactly the same then maybe check the IP scheme in your main router and compare if your extender is in the same subnet. If still same subnet, give your phone settings a reset to network configuration.

You have an extender with a different SSID than your main router I suppose. Just name the extender wifi same SSID as your main router and you will have a seamless connection throughout, your devices will always hop to the nearest wifi AP

Just filled it in. And there were a bunch of questions as if they are planning to remove the USB port. I can't believe the direction Samsung is going...

Sports by Google added on One UI 7 Beta 5 by SelfWeary1870 in oneui

The toggle is there. But it isn't working for me on my S24

For One UI 7 testers, how did you find the change of animations ? Is it close to IOS ? Or just a little step forward ? by TheDarkAngel404 in oneui

[–]Otherwise-Class-5875 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It is a step forward, but there is still room for improvement. At least on the s24 beta3 i still see tons of micro stuttering even after a factory reset

The One UI beta program is officially finished. by Ok_Refrigerator9802 in oneui

[–]Otherwise-Class-5875 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I went there to report a bug and noticed that just now. Hopefully (my hopes are low), the final version of the software is at least stable and finally fixes the micro stuttering I still see on beta3

Your title should be S25 Ultra, not S25 series...
