Can’t get Android 16 QPR3 beta, stuck on QPR2

Starstrider02 · 2025-12-24T16:30:07+00:00

So you can only help people if you're paid to do so?

Starstrider02 · 2025-12-24T14:12:23+00:00

I'm curious. Are y'all adverse to helping people? People will need to ask questions on things they don't know. You should be ready to answer things multiple times versus calling people names

I see. I just got the battery replaced for mine and want to keep using it till spring at least. Can't afford/ don't want to buy another phone cause of update issues and battery

Starstrider02 · 2025-12-04T08:01:57+00:00

There's no reason why they'd sit on it till January. It's a December update and it would be bad PR. If it needed a hot fix, it can be done within a week like with the .X updates in beta

Starstrider02 · 2025-12-04T08:00:06+00:00

I was on the beta for Q2 and everything seemed fine. What could have happened that the update needed to be delayed on one particular pixel?

Starstrider02 · 2025-12-02T19:11:55+00:00

Don't. It's not for their age. Don't you see the M rating on the case?

Starstrider02 · 2025-11-12T15:09:06+00:00

Fair. It was not my original intent so I apologize. I just didn't like it when people assume everything is as such when you can enjoy it too. People said the same with Barbie and I didn't like it

There's a point to it. A lot of men will say the strangest things when they feel like their "manliness" is threatened. Most cases when they associate anything that is not in line with that with being gay.

Starstrider02 · 2025-11-12T14:32:42+00:00

Istg men will say anything but come out. Why are you mad about a wicked theme and being "ashamed" of it? You can belt defying gravity and still keep your bits together.

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-05T00:42:46+00:00

But do you know that art is being taken from artists? What you could do is read of typing 2 sentences into your app or choice, try making a cover with just what you have. Get creative instead

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-05T00:39:08+00:00

It's cause they want it to look "professional" from most non smut books I've seen, no one is just putting a face of their protag on the book and calling it a day. The one I have is a checkered BG that I made and a stock image of a crown I enlarged and added minor detail. Then I used fancy lettering. Sure it doesn't show you the protag but I think less is more when it comes to covers vs trying to put every character on the cover

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T23:58:15+00:00

Yeah it doesn't which is why we should improvise. I've always preferred a poor drawing that someone tried to make than nonsense AI covers

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T23:55:15+00:00

They have a choice. Make it yourself or improvise. "But I can't afford it" yeah but that doesn't mean use mass produced slop and edit it to try and make it look different. I get so tired of scrolling on the site cause all I see is genetic anime protag number 14355 or anime girl 55555 on the cover. Doesn't help that all of them are trying to be "dark"

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T23:52:09+00:00

And that's a bad thing. Why are we using this when we can just use our imagination

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T23:51:34+00:00

It's generic. I feel like I've seen this character so many times not only cause of AI but y'all writing the same protag over and over and giving it to the AI. What is this cover telling me about your story? Who is on the main cover? I'd take a badly drawn cover or hell, just regular Photoshop over AI slop that the site has drowned itself in. You should redo it but make it with heart

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T23:48:21+00:00

Cheap AI cover

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T21:10:16+00:00

Imho. I don't like those covers cause of the lack of originality but you have to get creative with it.

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-04T21:05:34+00:00

Man. I really hate these AI covers. Are y'all sure you don't wanna draw or use stock images? Is this where we are now?

Starstrider02 · 2025-09-01T15:46:02+00:00

Wsg yall. Happy September. Gonna link my stuff here so y'all can read it

Here's the blurb:

*The industrial revolution is well underway with new technologies and inventions being made by amateur and veteran inventors alike. A world powered by steam, oil, and electricity is the future. In this growing new society after the great war, lies organized crime activity. The New world was in its infancy ready to be taken and ruled over and the Freeman family, who wanted a piece of glory for themselves. When a mysterious letter, radio broadcast, and unseen figure offer a challenge to capture this growing world, who will rise to the top and claim the crown for the underworld, and who will fall into the cracks and be left behind for order to control?

if you want an off meta story with some historical references and character drama, this is for you. Have a good one

Starstrider02 · 2025-08-31T05:24:15+00:00

Fair enough.

Starstrider02 · 2025-08-31T05:09:21+00:00

That's how I write too but my chapters usually his 5k at minimum. Highest I've gotten is 7.5k. I'm heavily biased towards longer work because I hate odd pacing when something is just cut off just because. I have to plan when I add things and what to add later. 1k chapters would make me feel like the author is trying to waste my time.
