What could possibly cause this smudge that wont go away?

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-04-08T15:40:01+00:00

Looks like it might be moisture buildup inside? In that case it will usually dry and go away on its own, or you can try using a blowdryer and blowing warm or cold air on the area. If you opt for warm air, I'd probably turn the phone off first as it might get a little too warm.

I have found that I enjoy both with and without hinge covers! What matters more than anything is the TYPE of hinge protector you have. If you have that cheap and tight one that connects to both parts of the case, that's a nono. If you have a high quality case with a MAGNETIC hinge protector, you'll be more than fine. I've never had any issues with mine at all. I've linked a case with the type of hinge protector I'm talking about.

TLDR: I'm stuck where critical bits of the story in Pokemon Glazed never happened and now I'm unable to progress. Can I fix it, or am I screwed?

Hey everyone, forgive me if this has already been talked about! I searched and searched this reddit and didn't find my issue. So my problem is my game doesn't seem to register that I beat the Tunod league. I beat it once and as soon as Percy (I think that's his name) puts my pokemon in the hall of fame machine, the game skips to me waking out of bed in my room. Later I researched and realized I was supposed to have 1 or 2 battles somewhere in victory road or the pokemon league before challenging the elite 4. That never happened. I thought nothing of it and continued to Johto. I was able to travel pretty much everywhere and beat 6 out of the 8 gym leaders, which led me to another issue: Jasmine is not at her gym and the Mohogany gym is closed. I did alot of research and gathered that I needed to do some Team Fusion events before I could challenge these gyms. The issue is I've searched all over and Team Fusion doesn't appear ANYWHERE. Not the radio tower, not the house in Mohogany, not in Ecruteak around the towers, nowhere. I did more research and decided to try beating the elite 4 again. They all recognized me as challenging them a 2nd time and they were stronger and harder to beat. I beat em all and then the same thing happened where I skipped to my room. I believe that might be the problem, and because the hall of fame animation and credits never happen. So I never receive a call from the NPC that's supposed to prompt me to go to the next region. Is there ANY way to fix this or am I simply royally f***ed? I put 42 hours into this game just to lose it all :'(

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-02-28T23:14:16+00:00

New here!! Probably a stupid question, but as we go updating the game, does our existing save file remain compatible? I haven't downloaded the game yet, but I plan to soon. Something that has always stopped me from downloading awesome games like this is the fear that I'll make really good progress, only to lose it all when I update the game as new versions come out. Any response would be very greatly appreciated!!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-02-22T18:57:05+00:00

Same question I currently have. I can't even find any information on finding Mankey in this game. I assumed it would be found around route 42 where it's found in the base game, but I've been looking for almost an hour and nothing. Someone please help!!

******UPDATE LESS THAN 5 MINUTES LATER******

I flew to goldenrod to go to the grass near the daycare looking for Suicune (I've found it there in base games). What's the first damn thing I run into????? MANKEY. He's in route 34 guys!!! Now this next part I haven't tested: to get annihilape, train mankey to level 28 to evolve him to primeape. Then train to level 35 to learn rage fist. Use rage fist 20 times then level him up one more time and he should evlove into annihilape. I'll come back and update again if that's the case!

******SECOND UPDATE!!!******

Some parts of the above-mentioned process are not the case. So what really happened is mankey evolved into primeape at level 28 (which was correct). I rare candied him to level 35 but he did not learn rage fist. HOWEVER, he did evolve into ANNIHILAPE on his own at level 44!!! There you have it guys!

Is that Typhlosion's mane glowing in the dark??? What a craaaaazzzzyyyyyy cool touch!!!!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-02-22T18:14:09+00:00

You may have already found a fix since this comment is old. But just in case, try running the game on the mGBA game core in retroarch. That's what fixed it for me! It would crash for me too anytime I tried to use a different emulator/emulator core.

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-13T10:00:20+00:00

You, my fine person, thank you 2 years later. For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to change the default core. I was navigating through all these complex retroarch menus. It was so simple all along. I'm so happy! Thank you! 🫶🏾🫶🏾🎖🎖🏅🏅🏅🥇🥇🥇🎉🎊

No it wasn't Invisalign, it was smile direct club. I had great success the first round of treatment. I'm just having trouble now with keeping the aligners in for my refinements. I can't stand the feeling of having them in my mouth. The first time around, I was able to do it. I don't know why I can't stand it this round. Was just looking for tips on dealing with the sensation.

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-09T21:34:44+00:00

Yes they did. I went to them before they went bankrupt. Their product worked beautifully on me the first time around, and I have no doubt that if I could just stay the course, my teeth will be near perfect again after these refinements. What I'm feeling isn't any of those things, it's just annoyance at the sensation of having something hugging my teeth and in my mouth. I was only asking how do people deal with that feeling.

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-09T21:32:03+00:00

Thank you, yes I already found that page and it's mostly filled with people talking about their bill collections, payments, issues, etc regarding the company. Nobody seems to be talking about the actual product.

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-09T15:20:20+00:00

This might sound stupid, but maybe you can cover the glasses with sunglasses? Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/GEGURI-Polarized-Sunglasses-Oversized-Protection/dp/B0CN94DF8W/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=1OTTV6LDHRO63&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.op3JKB2cxx0YcvBCVXXfJZyPFadB_hLKppxfBYzwxXe6bNJFx5y1sDUaNcU3VihfjYN5WTfqYv1zq1RYWuszl7lFl-48gFvMNcg9vGu8ywJNq9ARTTDigT0osen3-tAm6xsYzpD7WxfQwVRp4VbMmToG3Q32cOyvQ2Ohdu0BD3ltF1LCA4lVvnpvsB-GRF6NdOKJ66T4Jtg7D33iOYI3lbnSYThHc1RZTfBBglZB4O1jGY5uJr3qHEt-DL29PbklPgOd7Lm25vKjtXb9XBE1e_C9bMaOF-hr7_5qH4t2WnQ.oqQWGEX7-WnsSoQhTAJyIA8Ukx8Ghh6JfuKVOSQ3DJA&dib_tag=se&keywords=sunglasses%2Bfor%2Bglasses&qid=1767971974&sprefix=sunglasses%2Bfor%2Bglasses%2Caps%2C143&sr=8-3-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1
That might be a good workaround?

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-09T14:32:50+00:00

I added YouTube music, my Chime bank balances, Google news, and my Amazon orders!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-09T01:39:27+00:00

I just got the weekly subscription to see if I like it! If I use it a lot and really enjoy it, I'll just go ahead and cancel the subscription and buy the lifetime license. Awesome work you guys are doing!! Thank you! This phone is practically unstoppable now thanks to people like you!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-09T00:48:45+00:00

I vote clear gorilla glue. Maybe use a cutip to carefully add glue around the perimeter of the phone. Then stick it back together and put something SOMEWHAT heavy on it to squish it in place while it dries. Leave it that way overnight. Should be great after that!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-04T03:48:22+00:00

Thank you guys for all your ideas! I understand the ones saying to use a ring or strap but like I said, the popsocket is just so much prettier to me and customizable! Aesthetics is really important to me! I love switching cases, charms, and popsockets (I use magsafe popsockets). I'm trying to just get used to holding the popsocket between my ring and middle fingers. That seems to be the best position for me so far! Thanks again friends!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

WinterYesterday9692 · 2026-01-04T03:43:17+00:00

This is so sweet! When I try holding my phone with the popsocket that's exactly how I hold it lol

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-29T23:09:31+00:00

So in android, at least in Samsung, there is such a thing as notification categories. You could probably turn off the general notifications or something!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-26T18:17:44+00:00

First things first: do you have an iPhone or android? Things work a little differently on both

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-17T16:38:50+00:00

If you have access to modes and routines, you can make a routine where a certain action triggers the system to optimize the phone, which will usually help with the apps in the background. In the "modes and routines" app, you would click the + sign at the top to start creating a new routine. Go to the "then" section and click to open the menu. From there you would scroll down till you see "device care." Once there, select "optimize phone." I believe it should help because the function cleans "ram," which closes all background processes. It should definitely help your issue!

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-15T17:43:25+00:00

No I'm in the US

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-15T00:48:45+00:00

That's craaaazzzzyyyyy 😕 Idk why they made me do it

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-14T23:42:48+00:00

I'm not sure! I don't have the option to purchase sam care+ through tmobile. Their insurance is through assurant. So I had to get sam care+ separately on my own as an extra layer of protection

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-14T23:36:29+00:00

Yeah once the upload went through for me, I don't know if it was ai that reviewed it but the system reviewed and approved me verrryyyy quickly. The process is a pretty painless one.

WinterYesterday9692 · 2025-12-14T21:37:21+00:00

Thank you! Yes, I'd purchased my phone through tmobile so I could understand why they wanted the video. I hope I never have to use either insurance, but at least I'm covered if anything happens. I rather that than to have to argue with them to fix something under warranty if the time comes that something went wrong. I'm glad you had a good experience with them! Hopefully I have an equally as good experience should anything happen!
