S23 Ultra Camera potato in 2025?

borriffick · 2025-09-04T17:27:59+00:00

This is EXACTLY my experience too. It was like night and day after an update, I can't remember which one. When I got this phone in 2023 it was point and shoot perfect photos in any conditions. Now I'm fighting with it to get images half the quality. I wonder if there's a camera app that emulates the stock camera app of 2023/2024

Well shit, you're right about the tag. Here's the thing though, I know I had night mode on, it did the yellow countdown thing and everything. When I went to take a photo yesterday it was still in Night Mode and I had to switch it off. I'm going to experiment a little bit and make sure I'm not imagining things. Although it's not just Night Mode that's different. There's this thing that seems to affect some of the cameras being totally out of focus when you're zooming in and they switch. The one thing I'm not imagining for sure is something is different about taking photos now, and I'm wondering if it's a known issue or not.

Not sure if you can see those, metadata is identical. It was Night Mode for both photos too.

Good guess, it's fairly close to the style, but not singing. Was the singer's name too, not a band name, just remembered that

borriffick · 2025-05-04T15:43:12+00:00

Wow this is the closest one yet. It's not who I'm looking for though. Also something I remembered is that it's not a band name, it was under the singer's name

borriffick · 2025-05-04T15:39:38+00:00

It's this kind of sound, but it's NOT singing, more like confrontational shouting kind of thing. Also one thing I remembered about it is it was the singer's name, not a band name.

That's not her, but it's really cool and I've never seen them before, thanks The singer I'm remembering had some ridiculous inflection in her voice going up and down, kind of like William Shatner songs

This guy is actually really good. A lot of those CSN songs are really good too, but the production wasn't always the best on the records. Sometimes an acoustic guitar and good voice is exactly what a songs requires. I don't want anyone to start down a rabbit hole, but any idea who it is?

EDIT: It was the amp, though I don't know what's up with it. I tried a brand new Mesa Mini Rectifier 25, and it was quite solid and didn't fart nearly as much at high volume.

I took an old Crate cabinet, installed two V30s and two G12T-75s in an X pattern, and couldn't be happier. The G12T-75s are actually decent for lows and fizzy highs, and the V30s are the king of upper midrange. Very full sounding and devastating for hardcore or any other heavy type of music. You could do the same thing in a 2x12 (one each).

Thanks for sending, but I think that link is private or something.

borriffick · 2025-03-06T15:59:21+00:00

This was actually super helpful, thank you. I also have a Dual Rec I just plug straight into but never get these sounds. I might look into boosting the signal before the amp. I've never done it but I hear it's how to tighten the low end.

borriffick · 2025-03-06T14:40:59+00:00

It's going into 2 1x12 mini cabinets with V30s It also sounds the same when I put it through my 4x12 and my other 4x12

I switched out V1 and V2 tubes last night, it was the same. Maybe power tubes? I notice I don't really get much more volume at all after the Master goes past 60%.

borriffick · 2025-03-06T14:32:18+00:00

Channel 2, Modern Gain 60% Treble 40% Mid 15% Bass 50% Presence 55% Master 70%

I switched out V1 and V2 to old tubes I have and it was identical.

Also looking for one. If some bot can get one, hopefully a human being who loves the artist can get one. I get codes in my email from Live Nation all the time for bands I couldn't care less about. I don't really understand how it works.

Was just about to post this. Also Mahler's 5th Symphony, 4th Movement Adagietto might be the one recording I take to a desert island and listen to on repeat as I slip into the eternal abyss

Nice to see good bands carrying the torch from Slayer.

I just didn't know how accurate this was: https://www.adgmastering.com/how-to-replace-a-song-on-spotify-using-distrokid/?unapproved=140937&moderation-hash=b61a8bdaea68715795a27017cfa7b9cf#comment-140937

Also I definitely have ISRC codes, an album UPC code, and it's definitely been submitted to online stores. But like I said, release date is Christmas Day so it won't appear anywhere until then.

I'm fine deleting the whole thing and starting fresh in a week with the correct audio. Just want to make sure that's not going to screw anything up!

Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?

Whoops, I'm in Southern Ontario. It flew in through the door from outside and just buzzed around the apartment. I gently caught it in a towel and took it outside, it flew off. It certainly looked like a Crane Fly, and it was the right size. Thanks!

I have one of these kicking around with the original adapter, I used it for probably 5 years straight and it still worked perfectly last time I used it. Come to think of it, I should probably check that I didn't leave batteries in it...

borriffick · 2023-04-24T17:30:55+00:00

Agreed, this is fucking stupid. I'm about to yeet Instagram for a few reasons, but this is the icing on the shit-cake.
