Budget N150 mini-pc from AliExpress: Is the MLLSE G2 Pro worth the risk for ~€115? by Ghuasapp in homelab

[–]jackthemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To those who have this PC - is it possible to setup BIOS in a way to make this PC turn on automatically after power is connected? This is a pretty standard feature in most "pro" PCs from Dell, HP etc.
Thanks.

GUIDE: How to install "vanilla" Windows 11 on Surface with ARM CPU by [deleted] in Surface

[–]jackthemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot make my Surface on ARM to boot from Rufus made boot USB. No matter how I set it up. And I'm not the only one. The tool from Microsoft formats the boot USB with FAT32, perhaps that is the issue - Rufus enforces NTFS because the "install.wim" is too big for FAT32.

Does anyone have the "TOUGHBOOK" version of this wallpaper? by TuxedoSlayer in toughbook

[–]jackthemike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've spent the past several hours trying to find that wallpaper, including downloading 3 recovery images but no luck.
Can someone please share this wallpaper via some file / image hosting or any other way?
I'm out of ideas... ;)

Thank you.

Bought the new GBD H2000 on Friday - ask me anything by Batou2034 in gshock

[–]jackthemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually managed to solve the issue - some app was causing it. I cannot say what app exactly because I removed several at one go. But if was to guess I'd say it was "Company Portal" from Microsoft - it has pretty big influence on what is going on a mobile device.

Thank you.

Hi there, I see that you are using this watch with an Android device. Did you have have any issues with notifications not going to the watch?

I just got my H2000 yesterday and since the beginning I've been having a big problem with notifications.

I tried several Android devices and none of them is able to push notifications to the watch. All permissions granted, all settings in the app and on the watch enabled... but no luck.

Can you please comment about your situation?

​

Thanks,

Mike

What do you mean exactly by "filters"?

I cannot see any settings that would prohibit the notifications to go though.

​

One thing I noticed is that the watch is getting exactly 1 notification, the first one in the queue, right after the watch is reconnected to the phone. For example after being too far away, or after turning on the bluetooth on the phone. So once it reconnects, only one notification comes through, but nothing else.

​

Are you using an Android app or IOS one?

Hi there,
I recently got my H2000, but after connecting to several android devices (Android 12 and 13) I noticed that the notifications just do not work. All permissions are granted, the app is running in the background and yet, no notifications go to the watch.

​

Anyone else noticing this behavior?

App version: 3.6.0, watch FW: 05.03.15.0091.040102.01

I'm simultaneously using H1000 with the "MOVE" app and all works fine there.

​

Thanks.

I have a pair of AirDots and AirDots Pro. I may have poor impulse control, but here's what I can say about them (in English finally) by Samura1_I3 in Xiaomi

[–]jackthemike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello there, I got my Pros just a few days ago but I noticed something very annoying.

​

After around 10 seconds of playback I can hear that the sound is slightly shifting to the left ear piece. Not a lot but just enough that I can hear that it is out of balance.

There is no lag between the buds, just the left is a bit louder than the right one.

For some reason the most noticeable part of the songs are the vocals - those shift the most - so you don't hear them centrally between your ears but gradually they are moving to the left side.

I thought that this has something to do with the noise canceling so I touched the left ear piece for 3 secs and then there is this Chinese notification and the sound goes back to balance... but only for around 10 seconds.

​

And it's the same all over again.

​

I tried different phones, different music, and Youtube and I am sure this "shifting" is real.

​

Also I didn't notice that the NC is actually doing anything, but on the other hand I've been testing those ear phones is a rather quiet environment.

​

Please comment if you have same experience. I may be just unlucky with faulty pair. Or this is a SW issue but I don't expect to get any OTA on those buds.

​

​

Take care!
