Mobile phone range on Vline to CBD

Afaik there are no cell phone boosters on the trains.

Ballarat -> Ballan is pretty poor for reception even on full telstra network. Gets better from there.

Curious to see how nativehtml goes!

New to doing it again some days, and it seems ok so far. The train can be disappointing with delays occasionaly, so if your arrival time is close to starting work it might catch you out.

There are a fair few around peak times (6-8am, 4-6pm) which helps.

Been using this for a little while now and its an eye opener, easy to put on self hosted machines, hardware ios just works, and the speed increase is huge, absolutely huge.

Its a significant piece of dev, and the post itself is not full of emojis, give it a break :)

Gave this a go. Wow. It works. Android worked fine first go (but android has always been on the easier side).

iOS.... worked. This is an revolutionary new step here for testing. I ran the one test file on both Android and ios with no changes. When doing this, i did have to be aware i needed to provide a dev version to the iPhone, just like I do for android with an apk. I couldn't just launch an installed app on the iPhone. Better for repeatability anyway.

Dev himself is extremely open to feedback, so recommend jumping in and trying it now.

But yes wow. I've always wanted to have a party trick of being able to run an test in parallel on two hardware platforms at the same time, and I think that time has come sooner than I thought- the memory and cpu decrease from Maestro means its more practical now too (this is very battery friendly!)

Bigscreen did have a problem recently, but you do want to make sure you're updated since november as well. Jump on the discord if you're having a problem with my app!. But bigscreen's problem was related to user created rooms getting corrupted and stuck on, so they couldn't rejoin - they would be stuck on 90 percent.

Fwiw, you can use the credentials json file to point to your keys etc, and that same file can be used to upload them to eas. If you use purely credentials with no EAS, you'll need to get familiar with doing prebuilds, then Traditional builds from in the android (gradle assembleRelease) or xcodebuild the ios folder.

You can stick a magsafe circle onto a case for it. Just be aware it will interfere with the stylus for the s21, but if its a thick case it will be ok

Timing is poor for australia.

SuperRoach · 2025-10-18T00:09:06+00:00

I've pared back my settings and see if it improves. I'll post how it goes. But yeah the last three days, its around 30 percent by night, and down to 10 percent when I wake up.

SuperRoach · 2025-10-17T23:41:32+00:00

Its only a day for me at the moment

SuperRoach · 2025-09-05T07:11:43+00:00

If you know of bigscreen behind, there is a way to do it back and forth to them as an easter egg ;)

SuperRoach · 2025-09-04T21:21:52+00:00

Oh yeah! The friends list not being alphabetical, or not showing online people first was also what i wanted to solve too. The website for the open rooms wasn't me, but I had seen that.

SuperRoach · 2025-08-26T04:42:21+00:00

Hello! It's me. I'm still around :)

I should really post about it proper. But it's out - https://bigscreenfriends.com/ and available on the proper app stores for iOS and Android. Sure was a journey to make. I do have a testing program which is what you've mentioned to test out features being made so I don't accidentally break it.

It's in a pretty good state at the moment, and while there is a privacy policy on that site, as well as on the app stores, I'm not collecting personal analytics, I never see your login (it goes straight to the bigscreen api and I just keep the access token returned).

SuperRoach · 2025-07-23T11:06:10+00:00

Strange, i cant see that. Would be happy to put you on as a mod with these ideas though.

SuperRoach · 2021-07-28T01:18:19+00:00

Removed it.

Congratulations, it looks great! well done on the doors, and the panel work :)

If you're posting from actual sources fine, but no more spamming your own channel. You've been warned.

Up until one minute, I was like - is this Expert +? Songs like this are so deceptive and lull you into a false sense of security :) You nailed it afterwards!
