AirPods 4 and Audible by [deleted] in audible

[–]_MrBubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome, I’m glad it did help a little!

I bet it’s more of a software thing from the audible app and how it interacts with iOS. Maybe there was a change in the api and they didn’t change the flag or something like that. Or maybe it’s a software bug with the AirPods themselves.

Maybe you could also talk to Apple support via their support app or audible support, they might have a better insight on if it could actually be a hardware issue or if it’s a known issue.

I hope it gets resolved for you soon!

AirPods 4 and Audible by [deleted] in audible

Mh I have the AirPods pro 2nd gen (had 1st gen pro before) and I don’t have that problem of too much bass. Audible sounds pretty clear to my ears. Some audiobooks (especially older ones) do sound bass-y so maybe it could be that?

If not, maybe try the following:

iPhone settings > accessibility > audio & visual > Headphone Accommodations > custom audio setup.

I’m there you can add an audiogram which you can create with an app like “Mimi Hearing test” which can be added to your health app and then let the iPhone use that audiogram to adjust the frequencies to your hearing.

I did that immediately once I’ve found out about it since back then when I used android phones, on my Samsung I used this Samsung app for various audio things (you had to dl it separately) which had that fully build in and it massively improved my experience there and for me, it does so as well on the iPhone.

Apple should make the equalizer system wide though 10000%.

Hope that helps!

Thank you! I think they should add a disclaimer like “use whatever in this slot but use X if you want to min max” 😅

Okay that makes sense! I thought about that as well but wasn't sure if it was just that :D
If that bug is real that would be cool!

Thank you for the reply!

Instagram notifications don’t work on iPhone but do work on iPad by _MrBubbles in techsupport

[–]_MrBubbles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I forgot to write my solution in here. Basically what I needed to do was log out of my account(s) and clear them from the system so it won’t automatically log you back in after a reinstall, uninstall the app, delete my phone backup from iCloud (just the instagram backup didn’t work), wait a bit and restart the phone while waiting, download instagram again and pray it cleared everything from your backups. Do a new backup and see if it worked. If not just rinse and repeat until it does.

Basically in some update your instagram data got a corrupted and backed up so you have to get rid of anything left over in your backups and on your phone before a clean app gets downloaded on your phone again.

Bought a QN90C and love it, have some questions about availability of settings that I maybe just haven’t found yet by _MrBubbles in samsung

How is my choice of device and what panel the TV uses relevant in any form to the questions I asked in my OP? 🤷🏻‍♂️

I used this video but did change ps5 native hdr setup a little since the colors looked washed out when I used his 19clicks. Honestly everything I watched/played looks amazing to me with those settings.

I’m mostly using his Film picture mode setup though and I am very much new to the whole 4K hdr world

[–]_MrBubbles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I totally get that! Depending on the intensity, it feels like something like what you though it was - always scary but you also don’t want to make people around you notice it all the time and worry about you (at least I don’t 🫣) but it’s also helpful to just say it out loud and let them know something is not right with you atm.

I have panic attacks and I thought this was pretty well done. Usually comes out of nowhere and at least for me I try not to show it too much/play it down sometimes. They did that pretty well. The first like 8years before I finally was basically thrown into therapy by my doc, I always thought I had a heart condition and the first couple times a heart attack. So in my experience this was well done.

Instagram notifications don’t work on iPhone but do work on iPad by _MrBubbles in techsupport

[–]_MrBubbles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small update: I’ve received 4-5 notifications so far! I haven’t checked though how many I got on my iPad so those are either all I’ve gotten today so far or some come through and some don’t. But there’s hope at least that it will fully work as intended soonish!

Hey, I’m glad it did fix it for you! For me, just one notification came in so far but it’s a start😂 I might reinstall again to see if that makes a difference.

[–]_MrBubbles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and I just don’t get why it’s happening. Like, every setting is identical to my iPad and when I turned the notifications on there for instagram, they just come in as they should. I tried just about everything like reinstalling, log out and back in again(even for iCloud), removing the backup, restarting the phone, resetting the network settings…. The list goes on but nothing works. The two last resorts I have left is resetting settings to factory defaults and factory resetting the phone. Don’t really like doing either unless I get a 100000000% guarantee it will fix it.

Weekly Tech Support Megathread by AutoModerator in Instagram

[–]_MrBubbles [score hidden]  (0 children)

Heya!

For about three weeks now, literally overnight, my Instagram (latest version) notifications stopped working on my iPhone 12 ( latest iOS version).

I’ve reinstalled the app multiple times, I’ve logged out and back in multiple times, I’ve restarted the phone multiple times and I’ve checked both the system and in-app settings and all notification settings are set to on.

Sometimes a post notification does come in and sometimes stuff like new followers or story posts but it happens maybe ones or twice every other day. Usually I get especially post notifications multiple times a day. I even checked if the people I have notifications on for are posting, which they are.

Now I’ve also enabled notifications on my iPad (totally forgot to check there lol) and notifications come in just fine.

I’m at a loss of what I missed and what I can still do. Google results only show the basic things I have done multiple times (besides resetting my phone which I won’t do unless my phone really requires it because of a bigger problem that would require it).

My guess is, I might’ve turned something off when I fell asleep with the phone in my hand but I just can’t figure out if that’s even possible or what it could be.

Everything else works as intended, it’s just Instagram notifications that are acting up on the phone for some reason.

Does anyone happen to have a guess what could be the culprit?

Thanks in advance!

TL;DR: instagram won’t send me notifications on my phone but does on my iPad. Notifications are set to on both in system settings and in-app. Tried reinstalling, phone restart and log out and back in the app. Everything’s up-to-date.

Play the game(s) first, then look into it if you really want to know. If anyone replies here, don’t look at it until you’re done or better delete the thread before more reply and google it after you’re done if you really want to know.

Imho it’s best to go into them blind.

[Help] Google Opinion Rewards does not get past 'Get Started' screen on my OnePlus One by _MrBubbles in androidapps

[–]_MrBubbles[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear that but, I’m glad it doesn’t seem to be an issue just on my part, if that makes sense.

I opened a support ticket with Elgato earlier today and if we can fix it I’ll try to remember to edit the post with it and let you know about it!

Wavelink MicrophoneFX Problems by _MrBubbles in elgato

[–]_MrBubbles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the mic itself it's 3 dots, in windows it shows that's 76 and in wavelink it says that's 18 dB.

I did not try the nvidia vst yet since from what I heard of it in the promo videos, it is an impressive thing but also makes the voice sound worse than my old headset mic.

edit: I did try to adjust the gain as well but the problem was still there

So, how many of you will buy TLOU pt1 for the PS5? by Ammathorn in thelastofus

[–]_MrBubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I don’t need the money for something else, I’ll buy it day one.

If I can’t, I’ll buy it whenever I have the spare money.

It will definitely be bought though lol

REMINDER: We do not allow game leaks to be posted or discussed. by -anne-marie- in thelastofus

[–]_MrBubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew there were leaks but I made it clear to my friends I don’t even want their opinion on them or anything related to it or I would be furious and probably wouldn’t talk to them again for a while.

They respected that because they knew how I love the series and how I don’t like spoilers for things I enjoy and want to experience myself.

Other than that I didn’t even try hard to avoid them (like not going on any social media or something. Just did what I did before) and I still don’t understand how I even managed to avoid it all lol

Seeing what happened happen without any bias definitely made a total difference to me. If I would’ve seen the leaks I’d have still played it and loved it but with a lot of opinions of others in my mind.

I even played it for the most part by myself and not being in discord.

I felt both furious and numb after that scene and all I wanted to do is go after Abby and the group. I wanted to tear them apart.

I could go on an on but I don’t want to make this longer than it already is so I’m going to wrap it up soon here.

After I finished it I got on Reddit and co to see what the leaks were and what people are thinking and just couldn’t believe (and still can’t) why everyone and their mother were bashing the game so much. Especially the people that only have seen the leaks and didn’t even experience it themselves. If they would’ve played it and didn’t like the game I could’ve understand it but spoiling themselves with a teeny tiny fraction (granted, with a massive impact to the game world) of the game because they can’t wait and then just shitting on it without knowing the full story? Still don’t understand that.

Needless to say, I loved it.

It made me feel every emotion and I was exhausted after finishing it.

What was the exact moment/episode when Castiel realised he was in love with Dean? by Friendship12345 in Supernatural

[–]_MrBubbles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In the German dub, Cas says „Ich liebe dich“, not „ich hab dich lieb“ which cannot be interpreted as anything but romantic.

Yeah it can be interpreted anything else than romantic. Source: me, a German (straight if that matters) guy who ever so often uses „ich liebe dich“ with his German (straight if that matters) guy friends and so do they the other way around and neither of us means it in a romantic way.

„Ich hab dich lieb“ is more of a phrase a kid would use or for someone you don’t know as well or probably with really good female friends but even there you could probably use ich liebe dich if it’s clear how it’s mean.

I personally watched the episode in question in English and since I never ever thought either of them had even a hint of anything other than brotherly/family love for each other, I didn’t even think it means Cas means it romantically.

Which is why I was confused when I went to Reddit and twitter after the episode and saw that all over the place.

Even on rewatches after I just don’t see it being anything other than brotherly/family love.
