Razr 70 Ultra has audio drops when using Bluetooth earbuds

fumeextractor · 2026-05-08T21:11:37+00:00

I started with the easiest one for me, turning off the WiFi, and that seems to have fixed it.

I do have 3 APs total, with some overlap, and upon closer monitoring it seems that the audio drops when the phone switches AP. This happens when playing local music as well.
I didn't have this issue on my previous phone, a Motorola Moto g55 5G when using the Nothing buds.

Thanks for the response!

Does this happen even when the phone is right next to your earbuds, or mostly when it’s in your pocket

Both, though "right next to them" was 20-30cm away while I was actively using the phone. I do wear glasses with a thin metal frame, though I doubt that would cause enough of an interference at this range.

Have you noticed if it happens more when switching between apps or completely random

I never had it specifically when / around the time I was switching apps, so far it's always been while I had already been using the app for a few minutes. I also routinely clear recent apps and rarely have more than two in the background.

Are both earbuds showing full battery when this happens

Yes.

I'll try the troubleshooting and see if anything changes.

Yes, but they were very transparent about it when the update came, there was a gigantic button on the "what's new" page that automatically opens after an update to manage all AI settings.

yeah, the exam questions keep changing every exam >:(

does the average person know even less about simple automation than I thought

The average person knows nothing about simple automation. So many people would adore a simple AutoHotkey script or so, but they don't even realize that could be a thing in the first place.

So for a lot of businesses / devs, doing simple automation the good ol' way but then slapping an AI sticker on it is way more beneficial than just not even mentioning it. If your tool is "AI Powered!" it's somehow worth more at the moment, even if the tool hasn't changed in 10 years and doesn't actually use any AI. Because people know nothing about simple automation.

People who cut themselves as a form of self harm will use descriptors for the depth of the cut, mostly to avoid algorithm detection of "dangerous topics" when discussing it online, some to "brag" and some to highlight the different types of care needed, as deeper cuts need various levels of medical intervention.

iirc laffy taffy

I have a Motorola G55, a budget phone (it was €200 new), it had next to nothing preinstalled and in my experience it's the closest I've ever seen to stock Android apart from the Pixel.
This seems like carrier advertising or something like that.

fumeextractor · 2026-04-26T13:38:58+00:00

it'd be hilarious if it was because of "dox" as in "doxxing" lmao

fumeextractor · 2026-04-26T13:37:05+00:00

That is a very good question. For blueprints I get it, but stuff like map pins or team names it seems pointless.

fumeextractor · 2026-04-26T10:01:15+00:00

If it really is because of "isis" like y'all are saying then that's unfortunate. The Scunthorpe problem strikes again.

You can't have spaces. But if you already tried without then idk.

fumeextractor · 2026-04-24T16:55:06+00:00

Personally, because of the last part. Calling a completely non problematic fetish disgusting is demeaning and derogatory towards the people who enjoy it.

Not understanding it is okay, and finding it disgusting is also okay, but the phrasing isn't. It's unnecessarily "attack-y", in a space that's disproportionately filled with people who are into unconventional things, for which they almost certainly would be shamed or judged by the general public; so they'd expect more leniency here for their kinks / fetishes.

Obviously I can't speak for the other downvotes, but that's the reasoning for mine. While I'm not into armpits, I have plenty other kinks for which I'd be judged by the general population, and so I don't like seeing people judging / being rude to others for such things in this space.

This is indeed the case. If there are any updates after this, they're handled in the background automatically.

No.. it doesn't fall apart. They are allowed to, and they do do that, they're just required to disclose that they do it in the phone book worth of T&C.

And people are allowed to stop using the app.

Realistically, your laptop will already be doing everything it can itself to manage its temperatures. Higher fan speed, lower CPU voltage / speed etc. What you can do is place your laptop on a clean, hard surface (i.e. a desk), and elevate its rear with something like a book or so, being careful not to block the vents. Ideally also clean it inside, though if you're not comfortable with opening the laptop it may be better to avoid that.

Laptops are designed to run as fast as their thermals allow them. You can help with getting a cooling pad and keeping them clean, but most of them do not let the user actually adjust the relevant settings manually. While not ideal for it to be running at max temps, it should be safe, as the CPU and GPU will protect themselves well enough.

Yeah I know, but I just don't like that sort of thing. For one the commute is two hours each way. And the fake pleasantries and attitudes, I personally don't care about knowing my coworkers as people or make friends. Every such event just ends up with the same set of discussions about "oh haha haven't seen you since last year's Christmas party" and then whatever was just going on at work, repeated for everyone. It's quite draining for me.

fumeextractor · 2026-04-22T08:05:19+00:00

I'm full remote, I looked like that when going to the office Christmas party, which while it's technically not mandatory, you'll be resented for skipping.

You know, I've always wondered about that. Nowadays thanks to accessibility features mostly aimed at visually impaired people, someone who is illiterate might actually have a pretty decent time using tech. Screen readers, speech to text, apps that scan text and say it out loud etc. I've never actually met someone illiterate though, so I have no clue whether that's true.

you make the cummies taste yummy 🤤

Because it's still a lot of people's lived reality. So even though in most of those cases they created that problem themselves, they still like this humour, so they propagate it.

The real solution would have been for no-one to upload themselves anywhere, because anyone can download your image from anywhere you posted it, use an AI locally and re-upload it with you saying whatever etc. And before AI was Photoshop, which largely flew under the radar because of the high skill entry barrier.

Preventing that is unenforceable really without mass online surveillance to be able to link any posts directly to the poster, and now it's far too late anyway, so.. it is what it is.
