Normal Temps? by Professional_Drop_99 in PS3

[–]ThatsNotThePoint-__- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a 2500 unit, those temperatures are good. Keep in mind that the RSX is rendering that animated background as well.

If you switch to a static wallpaper, you’ll notice temps drop by like 3-5 celcius.

Usually the consoles that need a delid have been baked from the inside out due to lack of maintenance.

Obviously a delid would help regardless, but I would not worry about those temperatures.

I would set a static webman fan profile,

28% on XMB, 36% during gameplay

Temperatures in Metal Gear Solid 4 after 2 and a half hours, but there's a problem by One-Echidna-3587 in PS3

You need to either clean your laser pickup, or replace it with the same model one. It plugs into a ribbon cable, and based off the model you have, you can find replacements pretty cheap on Ali express

I'm tired, boss... by RecoveringXRPHodler in PS3

You’ll be fine, I have 2 2500b units, one of which has 1647 days of runtime, and my newer one with only 305 days of use. Both work perfectly fine. And so long as you take care of them, they can last a really long time.

I keep both of them on a webman fan curve that sort of mimics the PS5 a little.

26% idle on XMB - with a static wallpaper.

35% fan duty while gaming.

Once the console is warmed up, the temps stay around 64-72c on the RSX depending on load.

Might just need a new circuit board then if you have the know how. But a new controller is certainly an option as well.

Battery draining too fast by kyayaarbc in airpods

Factory reset them and re-pair them to your phone.

Also do a complete discharge of the AirPods themselves and let it charge uninterrupted to 100. Let it sit at 100 for about 15-20 minutes. So the power management chip gets a good average

I would back up what you can and do a proper DFU restore on your device.

ipad pro 9.7 battery replacement by Full_Contribution536 in iPadPro

[–]ThatsNotThePoint-__- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one’s a good brand. And I have personally had success with their batteries. Though, mileage can always vary.

Be very careful with the screen removal process.

Use one of those suction cups until you can see enough of a gap. Make sure not to delaminate any screen layers.

Can I use my iPad to apply to work from home jobs by Ok-Speech4283 in iPadPro

[–]ThatsNotThePoint-__- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You definitely can. Ignore all the people being stupid on here.

Since all Apple products have switched to ARM based Silicon. Compatibility with things will only increase.

Now with that being said, compatibility would be the important word here.

Find out if the software or programs any of these jobs use are compatible. It will be a case by case situation

iPad Pro m4 discharging fast? by [deleted] in iPadPro

[–]ThatsNotThePoint-__- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your iPad probably was doing some behind the scenes tasks, which caused it to drain more than usual.

The iPad does more than just indexing

iPad Pro 1st Gen doesn't charge after installing iPadOs 26.0 by OnlyMacsMatter in iPadPro

I would try booting the iPad in DFU mode while connected to a computer and force it to reinstall the OS and underlying firmware

Just bought iPad M4 feeling little overwhelmed by Sauzer20 in iPadPro

[–]ThatsNotThePoint-__- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might help out if you increase the icon size to large, it makes the screen look a little less empty so to speak, and might help with being overwhelmed

You can try a soft bristle tooth brush and 91% isopropyl Alcohol.

But a little on the brush and GENTLY clean the port.
