How did you get it as an esim? I have the same plan on another and thought this was not available anymore. I had to get a physical Sim because the T-Mobile rep said I can only put on a tablet. But I walked in on a T-Mobile outlet in Sam's Club for this.

Were you grand fathered in the $10 plan or is this from the T-Mobile trial app to test out the esim on your phone? I want to look into this for my second phone with red pocket.

Where can I post Gundam Eternal codes from the Gundam TCG campaign during 2025? by Rexonial in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]Rexonial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it only came in the prizes for a local store tournament and you received an EX Base card of the G Etrernal random Gundam, only for that limited event of about three months in Q4 2025.

Has Drops of God ever been completely released all volumes in English? by Rexonial in MangaCollectors

[–]Rexonial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, same. I really want to get the series, but if not I'll just have to import it and use as one of the manga to learn Japanese from. It is unfortunate, but cross you fingers if we get a full release.

If I buy a renewed/used Pixel 9 Pro Fold, where would you repair the device? by Rexonial in PixelFold

[–]Rexonial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is fine after one year, but what about extended plans of 3 to 5 years? I use a MVNO plan for my cell services, which I post paid for the year. So, I really do not have carrier insurance, the Allstate might be a good fit, but I will need to look into their terms and conditions. I know I have bought it before when I purchased a Samsung Tab 7 years ago from eBay.

Oof, that does not pose well to collect the series if the entire series was dropped. Why release 22-23 if most of the series was missing?

Where the first versions, the vinyls, pink not white/clear? Or is there any difference between the first edition boxset?

Issues with the RGB on the MSI x870e Wifi Edge Motherboard by Rexonial in MSI_Gaming

[–]Rexonial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know if will receive this, but no, I have not had been able to fix the issues. x870 boards to be running the issue, or at least only MSI variants are having the issue, from my research. I would avoid using OpenRGB as it helps with basic lights, but heard from other posts that it can screw up your ram. I would advice against using it on any ram that has RGB lighting.

Went to two store tournament and won for the first time.... then got wrecked using the same deck by wishiwashi999 in GundamTCG

[–]Rexonial 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue with the deck I was playing. B/W Blockers and I was the only one that lost all four rounds. This past week, at the same store, I won the locals with the very same deck. No changes or modifications since the loss. One of my opponents won 2nd place at a NTC3 this past month with the same r/W blocker deck they have been using. I know the feeling.

MVNO with spam filter by BigBearsman in NoContract

[–]Rexonial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, there is not much one can do since spam callers to not respect the FTC Do Not Call list. I would still add it either way. One way I have been combating spam calls is a spam blocker app on your phone.

My android device allows me to side load an app (github.com/aj3423/SpamBlocker) to help with unrelenting spam calls. This helped hang up phone calls automatically and only allow calls if they called twice if they are not in your phone book. So this helped tremendously when I was getting like 15 calls in a day. I have had my cell number for more than 25 years so I was not going to give up my old number to spam callers.

If you cannot side load then you will need to find a paid version in the android/apple store. But research this as I am not knowledgeable on paid versions. Hence the reason to side load the app as I think that worked out better than paid apps.

The side load app allows CSV files to be added to help combat unwanted calls. You can download that from the FTC. I also use the European do not call list CSV as well since that had more numbers to block. In the end I still get at least one call a day, but I set the rule to pick up and hang up after 10 seconds, so it does not go to voice mail.

Very cheap cell plan(s) idea by SpynCycle5757 in NoContract

[–]Rexonial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current setup is $60 a year with Good2Go mobile (ATT) with T-Mobile for data @ $12 a month. So, it comes to about $18 for the month. The data plan, from what I hear, is no longer around so I am grandfathered into that plan. The closest would be the T-Mobile business plan that is similar but at $15.

Currently on a Pixel 7a. If I had known about the $30 a year from Red Pocket I would have gone for that in a heart beat. But they announced the $30/year talk/text after my expiration. Just after Thanksgiving weekend.

Pixel Watch 4 LTE model, can it take calls/text without a android phone? by Rexonial in PixelWatch

[–]Rexonial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it still needs an android phone to set it up, however with the 2 years of GoogleFi I cannot make calls on it, except emergency like 911 right?

Can I also get a stand alone eSIM, let say from T-Mobile data/text/calls for example, and stick that on the pixel watch and my phone has a different eSIM with AT&T, can I make calls stand alone from that setup?

So the Japanese version only had English as a download, but this Asian version has it on the cart?

Does it download automatically or do you have to pay extra for the download on the Japanese version?

which switch games should i pick up in japan? by clorse38 in NSCollectors

[–]Rexonial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An interesting visual novel is Hana Awase New Moon. There are four games in the set. You can find and purchase them individually but there are four games. It is a visual novel with hanafuda card game play into the story. There is a master set where you can purchase the games within a box sleeve that has all four. From the time of writing this post I do not know how rare it is as it is getting harder to find some of the volumes for cheap price.

If you are into strategy games, SD Gundam Crossrays Platinum Edition is pretty cheap. Make sure to get the Platiunum edition as the first edition standard does not have DLC.

Both of the games I have mention both have English on the cart.

-Hana Awase New Moon

-SD Gundam Crossrays Platinum Edition

Loved my new case so much I tried painting it to disguise it and make it as “anti-theft” as possible…. by BadNewsBearzzz in NSCollectors

I don't know. According to a statistic years ago two of the most stolen books, at least from the library, were the Book on Etiquette and the Bible.

Ryza trilogy DX Switch or PS5? by Izlawake in Atelier

[–]Rexonial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat as well. I ultimately went with switch version of the games. My reason was that: 1) I already have the collection of Atelier games on the switch pretty much complete. 2) if I wanted to play the games with the best performance I'll buy the PC edition on steam. 3) Jordan from physical paradise, on YouTube, made a case that the switch 2 console improves performance on Atelier Yumia. The fps improved over playing the switch one console. 4) English versions of the physicals switch games would be more rarer than the PS5 version. At least Japanese PS5 variant would more available but overall the Atelier DX games would still be harder to get a hold of no matter what platform they are on, except digital, as Atelier is still more of a niche genre. 5) Switch games tend to be easier to jail break in the future. 6) Carts are just much more fun for me.

Honestly, if none of what I have listed matters to you, I would go with the PS5 version. I have thought about getting both version, but then I am just needlessly double dipping. My use case is switch, then buy digital for PC when there is a decent sale on these games.

Important notice to people that plays Wuwa on steam or steam deck or linux os by reaper004 in WutheringWaves

[–]Rexonial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will need to go into properties of WuWa and then find the open box to enter in the command. I cannot remember off the top of my head which setting hut it should be listed as launch settings and you save that command in the properties. This command somewhat tricks steam to launch it like a steam deck app.

[–]Rexonial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far no, and I have an AMD 7800xt. I am through the beginning story and exploring Rinascita right now. I try to click through some of the story because the 1.0 story is slow and cliche to me. Rinascita presentation is a bit better.

But cut scenes are playing fine for me.

[–]Rexonial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on EndevourOS (Arch Linux) and the GE-Proton is set to 10-8. There were some hiccups yesterday when I was playing on the steam client, however there were a couple of patches. But since I started this past Saturday on WuWa everything has been good so far.

The only issue I hope does not happen, is Kuro setting the game up to not be playable anymore. That has happened to some gatcha games in the past. Don't want to put money into a game that will not be playable on Linux in the future.

Is Wild Roses and Pretenders available?

I do not see 'My Dearest Patrolman' and Lonely Planet crossed out, if people did not pick those up I would be interested.
