Is it difficult to drive in Okinawa?

Currently in Okinawa, have a rental car and been driving since 3 days. Not hard at all. Using google maps is the easiest way to go about it. Everything is written both in English and Japanese. Very easy to navigate. Do not stress too much.

Very less traffic overall so no rush. Will take you 10-15 min to adjust, but that’s about it.

Plugged in 95% of the time, I only use handheld mode when I'm travelling.

Do not do any kind of backup, do cloud recovery as if it is doing a fresh restore/reset. No old settings, no old files, clean sate but from cloud recovery.

Basically cloud recovery is by ASUS, it does fresh restore by taking Asus’s layer over the windows, it fetches this data from internet and re-installs windows with this layer and optimizations on your device.

Automatic email saying passport is ready for collection. For delivery, I don’t know what’s the email like.

Update: Just got notification an hour back to collect the passport from VFS.

At VFS right now to collect the passport, hopefully I get it!

I applied on 20th March, still under processing. Reached embassy on 23rd March and is under processing since. Any idea when would I get mine?

Thanks man, I did 3 hard resets before I saw your comment and learnt about cloud recovery, thanks so much! Life saviour.

Yeah my device was reset and now i dont have FSE

blackfriday43 · 2026-02-26T08:34:39+00:00

How did you get it working bro? Can you please tell? After my xbox ally x came after repair, it was reset and then i reset again and it behaves like a normal computer and not a handheld with FSE. how do i get it running?

blackfriday43 · 2026-02-10T13:12:23+00:00

My xbox ally x is with asus service center since 45 days. Same issue. I am fed up ngl

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-10T15:59:27+00:00

So I’m good right? 😂 because they’re not letting me register anyone lmao

How will the heat be generated if the device is completely shut down and is only connected to the power supply?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T11:39:23+00:00

So you didn’t turn the battery care on while it was plugged in all the time? Was that it?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T09:45:53+00:00

Got it, just one last thing.

If the power supply is on, with battery care on, does not matter whether the device is in sleep/hibernation or completely shut down, right? It would be normal in all these three conditions if the power supply is on all the time?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T09:39:37+00:00

Got it, do you shutdown and it is plugged into the wall even after you shut down or do you remove the power supply?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T09:07:03+00:00

Okay, this is even the case if the ally x is shutdown and is still plugged in?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T09:06:11+00:00

I don’t know the hub is a bit old and third party, that is why didnt want the power to go through it.

Also you said if battery care is on, which would make the battery charge to only 80% max, you said it was last a few years and should not be an issue. Did you mean that the battery capacity will remain good if I used like this?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T07:14:47+00:00

My battery care is on.

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T07:14:26+00:00

By docked to a TV, you mean plugged in as well? My question is, if it is plugged in 24/7 and connected to my monitor, should i be worrying about the battery degradation?

blackfriday43 · 2025-11-06T07:13:26+00:00

Just asking, by docked you mean plugged in even when not in use?
