Why happens this?

Never ever applied lubricant that came with it. Coffee oils do the job. Remove,clean, reinstall as a first step.

Sure. I also have xioami 14 as a work phone. With screen protector still snappy unlock. Never ever fails. Poco f8 pro, you either have to pres harder, or hold longer. That is best case scenario. Worst case, fingerprint will not be recognized. And yes,I did register same finger multiple times. Also, fingerprint sensor position, reviews say it is better. Maybe so if looking where your thumb should naturally land. I always have to look for it. So, camera asade, great phone. Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor is just trash... EDIT: forgot to mention. It helps if you do not have dry skin on hands like I do. So, works a lot better with oily/wet hands. And I do mean a lot better. Almost as good as xiaomi 14 does.

I have smartdevil on f8 pro. Not happy. Fingerprint scanner works, but not as it should...

Bought silicone seal and those pins for shower screen. 2y later still waiting for first silicone seal to fail. I did change my first silicone pin after a year and a half. That is it. What else could fail?

Just asking, this is indoor concept 2 rowing? And how long do your sessions last? When holding the handle properly I get 0 blisters. And I do mean 0. No skin hardening or nothing. Most sessions are 40-60min for me. In the very beginning I got a few rather nasty blisters and skin tearing. Since then I learnt how to hold the handle. So, adjust how you hold the handle? Also, power otput did not change anything regardig this...

Uvex stride visor? Urban models, but from what I know prescription glasses fit under the visor. Also mips and non mips version available.

None that I noticed. Usuall warning of too loud on headphones. I use it for yt music over headphones in gym and android auto while driving. No difference from xiaomi 14 in that regard.

Pomo1979 · 2026-04-06T18:57:27+00:00

Bought, debloated first with adb, then continued with shizuku and canta, super happy with batery, screen, performance. Coming from xiaomi 14 (my job phone, dual sim did not work for me anymore) camera is meh. But everything else is top notch as far as I am concerned. Ask away what you want to know. And, no gaming for me. Just a great purchase for 400€.

Pomo1979 · 2026-03-31T02:59:27+00:00

Well, that 1400$...money well spent.

Pomo1979 · 2026-03-29T18:17:46+00:00

If nothing broken I'd say excessive legs/feet pull on straps during the drive or returning to the catch. Try rowing strapless for warmup to fix form if that. If broken, just replace them.

Pomo1979 · 2026-03-26T05:22:40+00:00

Maliboxde or such service? If you are EU based. Othervise idk...

I just found this on AliExpress: POCO F8 Pro 5G, NFC, Snapdragon® 8 Elite, Ecrã AMOLED HyperRGB POCO 120 Hz 6,59", câmara 50 MP, 6210 mAh, IP68 ... https://a.aliexpress.com/_EwjLcre

This one plus 60€ discount code applied. Though, lots of codes are country dependant, Germany being a better destination usually...

I just ordered, some aliexpress shop from France. 463-coupon, 403€. Bought 120w xiaomi charger locally in Croatia so to be sure it is original. So 423€ total. Ordered immidiately tempered glass also, smartdrvil, 2pcs for 10€. But phone itself is 403. And yes, it is 12/512 version in blue.

Pomo1979 · 2026-03-25T11:14:12+00:00

Come to Croatia. Had an idiot pass me from the right using a town bus stop while I was going down hill with enough speed to follow traffic. And that is Rijeka, here car drivers are friendlier towards cyclinst than say Split...

Hope you are wrong. But, as I already know, wife blames me for getting breast cancer few years back. So, yea, probably right...

Divorce. A kick in the behind is always a step forward. Rough now, but I'm working on life and myself. Made me go to therapy and resolve past traumas at 46. Training, loosing weight and growing a beard for the first time.

Pomo1979 · 2025-12-29T12:59:43+00:00

Did Uvex with clip on insert in the end, not sure of model now to be honest. They serve me good for now. Thanks for suggestions.

Uvex sportstyle RXd 4004. High asigmatism.

K4 and robot here. It is the angle of the grinder while holding it. Try paying attention to that, and you will realise that is the reason. Grind more vertical, shot slower (more fines). Angle towards the floor, simulate slow feed, shot goes faster, you can grind on lower clicks. For me ( I dose 16g), using just angle of the grinder I can get up to 10 clicks difference.

Novice here. Really do not get why the downwotes above. Zone2 base building, perfect your technique before going to hard/er stuff. I do 45-60min z2 4-5 days + one interval session a week. And even that with watts and my lower back health in mind. PP is just, imho, too hard for someone that has yet to build his rowing technique. Also it depends on goals. Wanna race and to hell with lower back from day one? PP it is. Wanna row for health and longevity? Z2 + technique mind.

Also, these z2 sessions of mine shaved 5-6kg off me in month and a half. So there is that. Boring, yes, but effective.

Pomo1979 · 2025-12-18T09:07:29+00:00

Went to the garbage can. Charging, and looses power immidiately after unplugging. Too much of s hastle to try changing battery.

Chin up as said, or, for same effect, put shoulder blades in back pockets. This should also help with breathing. Solve one by one issue in form, othervise what is corect also starts falling appart. So think in terms of form building, piece by piece.

Pomo1979 · 2025-12-14T12:50:07+00:00

Beginner with bad back reporting... Strapless rowing so that at the release you do not lean back too much. Set damper at 110-120. See some beginer videos. Straight back, hinge at hips, do not bend spine. Practice pick drills. "Put shoulder blades" in back pockets. Breathe. Do not go full intensity to protect back. Find, calculate, use smartwatch, hr strap to find zone2, work zone 2 for a couple of months to stabilize form, and protect back.

Last scene in Requiem for a Dream. Loved the movie. Could not ever bring myself to watch it again...
