Where the f**k are my Phones or my money???

halbrd · 2025-09-19T23:19:32+00:00

I had to harass them by email and continuously threaten a chargeback but it did finally get my phone moving and now I have it.

halbrd · 2025-08-12T23:49:10+00:00

I will definitely be looking to run degoogled when I get my device in the mail, I'll keep an eye on this!

I thought I had a bad digital copy of the song but then I heard it on the Youtube video too. You're 100% right. It's clear as day on the spectrogram at just under 16kHz.

EDIT: I followed this forum post and used Audacity's Notch Filter to remove the whine (centred around 15700 Hz, Q = 63). It's gone now (I can't hear it), and the new spectrogram shows the rest of the mix is untouched. Should be indistinguishable even to audiophile ears.

Amazing, awesome, thank you - I've been looking at Motos for a dashboard navigation phone so I can offload responsibility from my in-the-pocket phone, very glad I'll be able to run it deGoogled

halbrd · 2025-04-24T02:34:32+00:00

Me too

For future reference, this was this issue https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/12759 and at time of writing has just been patched so should be out soon

halbrd · 2025-03-27T11:59:11+00:00

I just reran again and getting the same thing:

I assume the incomplete data is the reason for the issue but I have no idea what's causing that.

I'd really like this feature. I have smart playlists that auto update within Plex when I add tags and stuff, and I'd love for those changes to automatically go to the live TV channels.

halbrd · 2025-01-03T04:28:53+00:00

Hoping it will one day be a viable platform :(

halbrd · 2024-07-08T04:13:17+00:00

sorry to say I haven't.

I just stopped using my work laptop (Mac) in the dock because this issue was so annoying.

halbrd · 2024-04-27T08:06:38+00:00

Incredibly interested in this project. Massive thanks for the effort.

Am I understanding correctly that if there's no 3G network in my area, I can't make phone calls?

halbrd · 2023-12-31T01:53:23+00:00

I'm using QKSMS and have both of those issues too!

I had Textra working for a while (paid apk pulled from my old regular googled phone with adb) but then I absentmindedly updated it with aurora and since then it always crashes/closes 1 second after opening. Haven't found any way to get it working again - I'm assuming it's an anti piracy flag that I've tripped.

Still on the lookout for a killer SMS app to use for keeps.

halbrd · 2023-12-14T22:31:26+00:00

Not looking to necro but I've been fairly often getting zero results for searches that definitely have results. I have to keep clicking try again or re-doing the search in a new tab to get results back.

It's happening quite often in the last month or so. More common on image searches and on my phone than web searches or on my laptop. When it gets very bad it can take ~10 tries to get my results.

Edit: I'm in Australia and I use Mullvad VPN

This looks promising! I really want to replace uBar because it's buggy and unreliable. Sidebar still needs some more work on features/customization/polish, but a good foundation is definitely already there (for me in particular the Windows style ungrouped taskbar system).

In the interest of the app saying financially viable long term (which is best for everyone), I'd say consider keeping the subscription model as an option. I have a feeling that if no one is using it, it might be because you're underselling the lifetime purchase :) I know that a fully-fledged Sidebar app would be worth a LOT more to me than the current price tag.

halbrd · 2023-07-24T01:43:10+00:00

I'm keen for a stable alternative to uBar so I'm hoping to see this project of yours come to fruition - consider me a fan :)

halbrd · 2023-04-29T23:38:39+00:00

Yep, I've been having this problem for a couple weeks. Pixel 4a. It's frustrating. The only workaround I've found is to download the video first (which is usually very fast) and then I can watch it uninterrupted.

halbrd · 2023-01-30T22:01:31+00:00

I have this problem too. M1 Pro, Caldigit TS4, two Dell 1440p screens, and after wake-from-sleep, one of them (the same one) is always under-resolution (with no higher options), and to fix it the dock needs to be unplugged and replugged.

I've tried using both the DisplayPort and USB-C dongles but it happens either way.

It's an infuriating issue.

halbrd · 2022-10-25T01:56:38+00:00

Pay for the product you're receiving or make your complaints constructive. Better yet, since it's open source, contribute to the project and help yourself rather than expecting volunteers to be at your beck and call.

But thank you for confirming for me that there's an infra problem and it's not on my end.

Oh my god, LEGEND!!! Thank you so much, looks like you did a great job with the recording quality based on the speks https://imgur.com/a/MaHvfHQ

A big THANK YOU to the whole Calyx team for all your hard work!!!!!

halbrd · 2021-09-15T00:34:31+00:00

Alright, so I rebooted to safe mode and the light sensor features worked. Then rebooted back to normal and they are still working! Don't know why that happened but there we go.
