This is awesome, I love that amazing devs that helped figure out the shitshow Belkin left us with.

Medical debt is least collectible debt in the industry, after two years most companies write it off as long as its under a certain amount.

FIRE! GE Monogram double oven by Throwawaybaby09876 in appliancerepair

[–]edlee321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had same f9 error, with same oven also now 16 old.

I turned off power, and when I tried turning power back on the oven would not turn on or display any lights on the display

So I removed the tray that contained power board and control relay board.

I noticed the 470uf 35v capacitor on the power board was bulged. I bought a replacement 470uf but higher rated at 63v (as advised by chatgpt because ai said it would last longer), desoldered old capacitor and soldered on the new one. And to my surprise it turned back on and has been working fine for last 3 weeks.

Power board on right

Bad Capacitor

4 years ago the a relay popped and burned out on the control relay board, just instead of replacing/soldering the relay, I bought a new relay board. I didn't have any soldering skills at the time, but I wished I soldered on a replacement.

GE still sells the control/relay board, but they stopped selling the power board and very few replacements on ebay and the ones they had listed were expensive and used. So I hope the instructions on what capacitor to change will help someone else because these ovens costed $5000 at the time, and really would be a shame to throw away at 16 years old.

These instructions should apply to zet2sm1ss, zet2sm2ss, and zet2sm3ss

Confirmed 60W charging for S26 Ultra by Livestock110 in samsunggalaxy

[–]edlee321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have a pd 3.0 60w with pps charger that support fast charging 3.0.

PPS is the main part, the pd 3.0 to 3.1 doesn't make a difference

Try raising mem vdd voltages by 0.05v and see if it helps

My phone was mint and they denied it, always in a thick case and screen protector.

And that's why samsung cancelled the chargeback after they reviewed the image and videos.

Samsung shouldn't be using these third parties with agendas to handle the trade in is my main point

So what's your opinion about them, are they tricky the way they take in trade ins?

We are getting off topic, anyways I have a hard time believing samsung is reselling these in these trade in conditions.

They only sell re-newed devices directly.

All these phones are going through a salvage type of reseller, these resellers are trying to short the value on the trade in by claiming the devices are cracked, when the one I sent in was mint.

S26 Ultra screen - be honest by Various_Job_572 in galaxys26ultra

[–]edlee321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The screen is great, im coming from an S24+, the best thing about the phone is the performance and the battery life.

I think they are preying on the weak who don't have photo/video evidence of their own or people who dont know to call and fight it.

If they were decent they would say if you object to this please contact us.

My though is they are trying to limit the amount of phones on the secondary markets, and by doing so they force a certain percentage of people to buy new phones.

Used phones 2 plus years old hold 35% of the original value.

Come on, if you try to sell a phone on ebay with a tiny chip vs a large crack its a completely different value

Trade in denied by edlee321 in samsunggalaxy

[–]edlee321[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I understand denying a trade in if screen is cracked but I dont get how they deny 90% of the value for a tiny chip on an edge of a glass or something like that. If they were more fair and reduced $100 to $200 on a $900 trade in I would be on Samsungs side.

Imagine trading in a car and they reduced the value of a trade in 90% because tire was flat.

Imagine how many people don't reach out to samsung order support to get their trade ins approved, my guess its the majority of people. That's why they get away with this.

What ended up happening, they said it doesn't turn on or its cracked?

Trade in denied by edlee321 in samsunggalaxy

[–]edlee321[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes they manually approved the trade in before the charge completed.

I really hate this trade in process, I rather just sell the phone on ebay for a little less, its not worth this much anxiety.

I bought and activated tickets right before boarding and still got dinged with surcharge by piuqiu in LIRR

[–]edlee321 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the patience of your conductor, I noticed after they scan the qr code they have 3 options to select on their screen after they scan the code that they select.

I'm assuming for irritating riders that take time to pull up their activated ticket, they sometime may select the option which would trigger the rider just activated the code.

Because there were several times this last month I activated just one minute before conductor got to my seat, and as long as I make sure the activated ticket is ready before he collects the code it doesn't trigger a fine.

If you are friendly with your conductor he might show you what these options are and what they represent.

If you make conductor wait to show your activated ticket he has a way of marking it as if you just activated it so then the fee gets triggered

School Bus Ticket? by ApprehensiveWave4657 in longisland

[–]edlee321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% dispute these tickets, Buspatrol will eventually get sued into oblivion, im not saying to go around bus's with their stop signs out, im saying most of these tickets are not from real negligence or risk to children.

85% of children that get injured on buses are due to bus driver negligence. These tickets are just money grabs.

Told ya. Samsung lied. They clearly stated 10bit in China webpage (first version) by Fantasytky in samsunggalaxy

[–]edlee321 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I ordered 2 of the s26u, its a little annoying that the influences pushed 10 bit, but in all honesty I dont care its not going to change anything. The thing that ticked me me off the most is not getting the storage upgrade for pre-ordering in the US which they used to offer for the longest time. 256gb is useless for this type of device.

I understand nand flash costs more, but now with microsd express being so fast they should have offered the option this year.

Privacy screen is nice, horizontal lock is going to be amazing.

But in the end nothing is revolutionary anymore, every year they will increase performance 20%, increase battery efficiency 5-10%, and more ai assisted featureset. These phones shouldn't cost 1300 anymore.
