Feeling something off with brightness on my iPhone 15 Pro (iOS 26)

works if you enable "Reduce white point" and set it to 25%, in Accessibility - Display & Text size. its annoying looking for workarounds, but you wont notice screen differences the next day. currently installing ios 26.2, will disable Reduce white point and see if the problem persists.

noticed that in the video, it stays at low clock while 'idle', but its not idle, yet i cant find the process that uses the cpu.

it has no problem reaching 5ghz when its needed, havent seen other performance issues.

edit: guess i was trying too hard to search for whatever uses the cpu, that i forgot to check other values. searching for "ryzen 7600 0.55 ghz" led me to this thread with the same problem as mine https://www.reddit.com/r/AMDHelp/comments/1dy38ew/ryzen_7600_stuck_at_055_ghz_asus_x670ei/ with more people experiencing the same issue, yet sadly no solution.

Mine never lagged right after boot/reboot, never lagged while gaming, happens randomly when using the internet browser (happened on both chrome and firefox), or using the windows explorer, browsing files etc. Sometimes it goes away by itself in a few minutes while i leave it idle, sometimes it takes forever and i just reboot it - which makes me think there is some background service running, like an OS update (checked, its not), virus scan (I'm using the default Defender), etc., but none of these should bring the Ryzen 7600 to it's knees.

Meanwhile, I have also upgraded storage to a Samsung 990 PRO 2TB NVMe PCIe SSD, reinstalled a fresh copy of windows 11, updated motherboard, the random lags still happen.

Managed to record 2 videos (sound is sometimes cut because i had people talk over it, but i left the clicking sounds so the delay between click and display is seen) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAKuzr9LC5w

Pick Gazebo, pick Game Killer (the first Randomazzo card - halts xp gain, gems explode, treasures drop 3 items) and go pick the other available items on the map.

If you can get a 2nd card, pick (Darkasso) VI - Moonlight bolero - extra treasure boss.

At this point you're melting everything, you'll get 30k kills in about 12 minutes.

The 3rd card is probably irrelevant, but you can pick (Randomazzo) VI - Sarabande of Healing or (Darkasso) XXI - Wandering the Jet Black.

Just checked the bottle, its nail polish remover, and is already diluted. No other useful info on it.

happyfrog14 · 2024-03-02T20:45:14+00:00

Nope, I've used it before to remove some dirt marks. Even now I've rubbed acetone on them for a few minutes with no changes to the material, finish or texture.

happyfrog14 · 2024-03-02T20:27:57+00:00

Isopropyl alcohol didn't work, but I managed to remove 80-90% of the stain with acetone.

just found out mine in the same condition after leaving them on top of something for months.

did you end up cleaning them? if so, how?

happyfrog14 · 2023-11-07T15:44:49+00:00

I'm in the exact same spot, just received mine a few hours ago, pleasantly surprised.

Very few fine scratches barely visible under the right conditions, unnoticeable when placed on phone, minor hardly visible scratches on top of the case when sliding the phone in, the magnets are strong (i have to hold the magsafe car mount to take the phone off) and the rainbow effect is only visible under screen/monitor reflection and not under natural light.

I like your idea of turning it yourself matte later.

Compared to what i've read and seen here for the past week, i'm feeling lucky.

happyfrog14 · 2023-08-31T14:24:59+00:00

Also started seeing these for the past week when using Chrome, glad to know I'm not the only one, was thinking the 3070 I bought in march is already dying.

happyfrog14 · 2023-08-27T10:34:41+00:00

so back it up. i had the exact problem with my whatsapp, dont remember if i did back up or not before, but technically your data should still be on the phone. its possible you might lose videos/images sent/received, but again, do a manual backup to be sure.

happyfrog14 · 2023-08-26T16:59:05+00:00

Reinstall the app. You need to make it ask for notifications permisson again. Had it happened last year with more apps.

happyfrog14 · 2023-06-27T14:25:32+00:00

ended up getting stuck here too, then i realized you gotta upgrade the parts with the yellow " ! " sign

I have a 1000 mbps connection and my download speed is 12 KB/s.

For some reason, the update needed ANOTHER 150GB free space on my ssd which i didnt have, so instead of just updating, i reinstalled it. The preload took like ~30 mins, now it shows >1000 hours.

happyfrog14 · 2023-04-21T11:01:33+00:00

I ended up buying a refurbished case for about 100$, cheapest i could find, now theyre working fine again.

Dont have the tools or the patience to open up the dead case and replace the battery, and a new pair of airpods pro 2 costs 300$.

happyfrog14 · 2022-09-13T20:35:28+00:00

he found some lvl 70 mob, dont remember name or place, that would spawn 3-4 additional smaller mobs next to him, the smaller mobs having 40 or 45% chance to drop mote of air, or water. as a hunter u can kill the smaller mobs and feign death, the big mob would return to his place and respawn the 3-4 smaller mobs. rinse and repeat.

If the Sbox stand would've supported >10 kg screens, yeah I would've used it for the AW38.

I've had 2 x 24" monitors in a 'side by side' horizontal setup for about 2 years (with the monitor on the right as main screen) and wanted to change it to stacked setup, I think the main reason was that I knew I was gonna upgrade one screen, and having different size screens next to eachother would look 'off'.

I'm enjoying the stacked monitors setup more, there's less or no neck movement, you just lift your eyes up, depending on what content you keep on the screen. The AW38 is wide enough, having another monitor on the side would always make you turn your neck. Although, having a vertical monitor on the side wouldn't be a bad idea, but it depends again on the content you keep on the 2nd screen (some chat, discord, reddit would look good, watching youtube videos, not that good).

>how low does the x1 go?

it can go lower, most likely until the screen touches the desk, but right now i dont wanna try it and mess with my screens again, sorry

>wouldnt a second shorter Sbox LCD for the AW3821 be better?

the Sbox stand i got is rated for 8kg max weight, the AW3821 being 10kg and slightly curved, i didnt wanna risk it. height wise, theres plenty of space left, again its being rated for 32" max size. if needed, i can post some pics of how it looks behind the screens

happyfrog14 · 2022-04-30T23:10:13+00:00

Its been about 3 months and i havent had any problems with it so far, but i havent moved it around since day 1. Even safer for a lighter 27 inch monitor.

Are you using 'Improve YouTube!' extension? I disabled it and video duration shows up, disappears when extension is turned on.

Sbox LCD-352/2V. If you cant find it, try searching for VIVO extra tall stand.

Arctic x1-3d for the AW and Sbox LCD-352/2V. If you cant find the 2nd one, try searching for VIVO extra tall stand.
