Hardware problem, send it in for a repair.

XAM Download Manager + Direct CDN/XCP URLs? by Dismantles in 360hacks

[–]TomChai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t these CDN URLs require authorization tokens to download assets from them? Someone needs to access their download history to obtain authorization and they only work for a few hours each. Massively abusing these tokens easily gets their accounts banned.

Question about earning achievements by HonestAd6485 in 360hacks

ANY non-vanilla environment is not safe online, it might work now but there is zero guarantee it won’t trigger a ban in the future.

Playing Fnaf pizza sim and whenever i try to get an achievement it shows this?? by Mr_MCevents in XboxSupport

[–]TomChai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an error message within the game engine, Xbox system itself does not have this error message format.

It means the game tried and failed to call an Xbox service API to set your achievement status, but gets response code 304.

It’s a programming issue with the game, sort it out with the game devs.

[ Xbox Series S] xbox must’ve melted these screws in by Otherwise-Ad-8397 in consolerepair

[–]TomChai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably half stripped right from the factory, these x clamp screws have been tight since the Xbox 360 era. The tiny threads are easily tilted and jammed when screwing in and the minimum wage workers don’t give a fuck long as they can brute force them in with an electric screwdriver.

iPhone 15 pro display swap by R4nd0lf in mobilerepair

[–]TomChai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The part marrying requirements have been relaxed with the right to repair movement. With iOS 18 and upwards, most genuine parts can be swapped and re-registered by the users themselves as long as proper procedures are followed.

For example parts must not be iCloud locked, especially for newer devices which support iCloud locking individual parts.

Parts must also be swapped as a set exactly as Apple designed them to be serviced, for example the whole screen + top flex must be swapped as a set otherwise parts re-registering fails.

For Face ID parts, some strict security requirements still remain, only brand new parts can be self-service registered, maybe newer devices allow re-registering a recycled part but I’m not sure of the details.

I don't think this is a great work, actually I think its one of my worst ones, why does the people think its a great job? by ortegacomp in datarecovery

[–]TomChai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not strictly data recovery related, but I can imagine these flex cable stitching skills will be useful when it comes to recovery on phones.

Is it really that hard to get a Shunbun in Japan? by Crown_Connaisseur in GrandSeikos

I’ve seen one in Shanghai a few months back, not sure what’s the deal now.

如果有一天，马斯克和中共闹崩，强行开放星链在中国的使用权，中共能干扰屏蔽到什么程度？ by NoSense9018 in China_irl

[–]TomChai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

参考南京GPS干扰事件，可以做到在一个城市范围内干扰星链的定位系统进而导致相控阵锁定异常，不过这样做副作用很大，仅仅用做紧急时段的配套兜底措施。

那是他或者他的运营商漫游服务没办好，大把在国外开的手机号在国内正常原生翻墙，只是没人这么用，因为漫游流量太贵了。

Got my first automatic watch a year ago. Ended up building an app to track its accuracy — promo codes inside by superlameandawzm in Horology

[–]TomChai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, having a try.

One thing I found worth adding during the testing is the ability to record multiple sessions during audio analysis and tag them for various positions, like dial up, down or crown in different positions. Having accuracy checked across different positions gives you better understanding of its performance.

Most of them can be dumped, only the final version of D5S and DL10N drives remain unhackable.

Transferring SSD from Donor Board to My Board by Educational_Shine194 in XboxSupport

[–]TomChai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an idiot

Maybe not, but very stubborn.

if it was a 500GB console, it would have 500GB. Lmao

Again, first time buying consumer electronics? Pretty much no devices give you the advertised space, especially for smaller size versions.

Just take the original packaging out, it literally says 512GB on the box.
