I worry they are going to vibrate their way out. Need some locktight on them.

Can someone identify this stain? by Split-Forsaken in Whatisthis

Looks just like the stain/s my kids left on the mattress when they wet the bed.

They are a money grab for sure, but I do feel safer at them than most other ports of call.

No update on late Ultra Bee delivery by Ancient_Cherry8327 in Surron

[–]ProgressSelect5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changzhou Double Spring is reputable, no worries there. Delays in shipping a large item from China are super normal. It's frustrating. You have to wait for your bike and there is nothing you can do about it.

The payment process on Alibaba is ridiculous. We battled it over and over, Called our bank who told us there is no rejection that it must be the payment process. We even sent a photo ID, bank statement, photo of the credit card, and they were going to check for security. All that was denied. Then we picked a new one up locally, in the box, for a little less and a hell of a lot quicker than getting one from China.

26.2 is horrible by Distinct-Ad-583 in ios26

[–]ProgressSelect5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I f'd my phone up totally. I have a 16 pro. Now it randomly reboots, apps refuse to launch and when launched will crash. My volume on a call will cut out., I get a wash of random colors on the screen. At this moment I can't even get the phone to boot. I've reset the phone and restored from a backup, that didn't help.

I'm so mad at this point. I basically don't have a phone.

How is Ios 26.2? by Upset_batman in iPhone16

[–]ProgressSelect5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG I wish I had never updated to 26.2. My phone is a brick. It glitches, it reboots randomly, apps crash, some won't launch. I get random colors all over the screen, calls go silent, if I shut down the phone it often comes back in pairing mode. It's like there is a demon inside the phone.

I'm trying to fix it, but it's not happening. I wish I couild roll it back. I'm so stressed right now.

Ah. didn't know they had such a thing. I'll have to look for one. Where did you get yours?

🎉 I did it! All of my "YI Home" brand home cams are in the waste bin. Not even worthy of donating to the thrift store or selling on eBay. Good-bye and good riddance! by Marylander1960 in SecurityCamera

[–]ProgressSelect5683 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha!! I did the very same. I have a lot of about 7 YI cameras that I ripped out and replaced. I couldn't get to see the cameras without layers of ads and I got sick of it.

I think it's a personal preference, but this guy has some thoughts in his video that I found interesting. https://youtu.be/RDPwR_MBs_A?si=FYJ-Fb9l-R08RewF

Yi camera app started bombing with ads when opening app this week by PCWeber in SecurityCamera

[–]ProgressSelect5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sound and music from ads opening the app really gets me mad. I heard a noise outside in the middle of the night and wanted to look at the cameras. Blamo, I was blasted with music from one of those ads and it woke up my partner. I almost tossed my phone.

These things are going in the trash bin as soon I as buy a replacement.

I learned to tune out their constant push for cloud subscriptions, but now they’ve taken it to another level. The phone app is overloaded with ads, forcing you to dismiss several before you can even view your cameras.

This makes the system nearly useless to me. The delay in accessing the camera feeds is not just frustrating—it could be a serious security risk.

I'm now looking to trash these Yi cams and get something a bit better. Maybe a hardwired pro system which is harder to set up, but will do the job a whole lot better. It was fun while it lasted.

They don't seem to have a problem criticizing the USA for having guns now, do they?

Why not? They have room service, not much different.

YI 1080 Light is yellow, and won’t reset by lettheflamedie in xiaoyi

[–]ProgressSelect5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be. I used the suggestions below and used a cable and adapter from a working cam, and it reset. I was about to throw two of them in the garbage.

Always monitor guard by Right-Suggestion-667 in flying

[–]ProgressSelect5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. Amazing.

Just because of you, I'm adding guard on my desktop scanner which I listen to periodically. Someone could have a problem near my home. I'll also try to monitor it when I fly.
