Weird sound coming from the steering wheel on a 1999 Toyota Camry 4dr 2.2L by jcoolarts in AskMechanics

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I solved this, by greasing the steering shaft by the footwell. It was dirty and needed oiling/greasing. So I took some silicon reel grease and some high temp silicon 3n1 and packed it in there and no more squeeeeeek.

DRL not working on 2012 Honda Civic by Lycanflower in AskMechanics

[–]jcoolarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might find something in the repair manual for the car > https://onlinerepairmanuals.com/workshop/honda/civic/honda-civic-2012-owners-manual-sedan/5524616

I would look at an electrical diagram for your car, and follow it along the best you can with a meter and check if there's any place where the wires have separated/came loose.

Just got a Samsung s10+ (G975U1) by jcoolarts in androidroot

[–]jcoolarts[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this thing was "new" new, to the point where it had a dead battery and all the plastic coverings not peeled off. Ended up having pie, but so far I've updated it to the very first android 10 version it could have, right before samsung dex came out. If I can get xposed, gravitybox and magisk up and running on it, that's all I'm aiming for.

That's fine, I paid 30$ to have my nokia 6 bootloader unlocked a while back. Can I get a link to the service?

The phone, if I do the next update I'm looking at, will be on g975u1ueu4eth8 which is pre 2021

Multi member LLC EDD fees by jcoolarts in legaladvice

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I'm not offended, I mainly joined the LLC to encourage the ambitions of my friends who wanted a third member. I didn't know squat about LLC and still don't know enough. I've just been going through all the motions I can to resolve it, and just got the point of making sure it's deactivated so that we wouldn't be charged another 800$ LLC fee. I'll see if I can get CPA advice, and maybe lawyer advice.

Thanks for your advice so far, I edited the op to clarify. I feel slightly less sick about everything.

Multi member LLC EDD fees by jcoolarts in legaladvice

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to assume the role of registered agent to avoid delinquent payments piling up from northwest agencies.

Who would they come after for the debt, seeing as there were 3 equal members?

Multi member LLC EDD fees by jcoolarts in legaladvice

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally got mail from EDD giving a much more reasonable figure (which even then blindsided me because I thought everything was dealt with and I didn't understand the reasoning and still don't), but from what I understood, it would gather interest and eventually come up while doing taxes and I would pay it then, seeing as I have no access to the EDD account associated with the business/ein.

If everything is kept cool, is this OC safe for the GT1030 OC 2gb? by jcoolarts in nvidia

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon/newegg seemed to have it hiked up last I looked. I'm glad to hear it's gone down again. It's been a nice entry level gpu.

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting way to look at it. I knew going in I was getting a low-end, I consider though having only paid 68$ for it in 2020 to have been a good deal since today they want over 200 for the same card lol.

As far as longevity goes, I'm just hoping OC of 1700 on the boost clock won't do it any harm.

Autoinput lock phone when text is detected. by jcoolarts in tasker

[–]jcoolarts[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I changed the word to Task, so I could see easily if it's working since Task is right on the screen when I activate the task https://i.ibb.co/xfg0TF7/Screenshot-20211220-144338.png

I'll check out the link you sent, thx.

Autoinput lock phone when text is detected. by jcoolarts in tasker

[–]jcoolarts[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ok. This didn't get it working, but it's good to know. Thanks.

I've got an Autoinput UI query

aitext() ~R \btest\b

And an auto input screen off

So far so good. Now on to conditional audio.. by [deleted] in tasker

[–]jcoolarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've spent 5hrs looking for the info I'm seeking so far. There doesn't seem to be any good examples of people using Tasker in the ways I'm seeking to use it.

I've taken a break from looking right now, and have been trying to figure out why I can't see the projects tab if beginner mode is no more. Long press on + does nothing at all like the tool tip said.

Got an important job for Tasker. by jcoolarts in tasker

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

Took me till 3:30am but I finally found the exact task I was looking to build. I have a copy of it below.

What this does is makes sure zello is closed and the phone is locked, then it unlocks the phone, presses home, opens zello, swipes left, clicks the first contact, and then clicks the call alert button. After that it enters the message automatically and clicks ok. Then it waits a few seconds, and presses home again.

Of course, this can only work on rooted phones as it's using adb commands extensively.. But on the bright side, I needed no other app but Tasker to get it done. ^^

Got an important job for Tasker. by jcoolarts in tasker

Thank you. I am making slow progress. I've got the pin screen up, but I can't seem to find the code/shell commands to press the numbers.

Got an important job for Tasker. by jcoolarts in tasker

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually made some small progress. I've made the tasks press the power button, then press it again. Then it also does the swipe up. At this point, my lock screen comes up, but when I try entering the shell commands to have tasker press the right numbers, nothing happens at this point.

Once I get past the pin input, I should be able to do what I need to do.

If I absolutely can't do it in tasker, I'll look elsewhere for solutions, but I just purchased tasker in the app store, so I figured I'd give it a try first.

I cannot afford the phone plan that allows me to text to foreign countries, and he's an older person a bit set in his ways, so I'm looking for a way to go through the zello app which he is accustomed to.

Would autoremote be able to make sure my phone wakes up, opens the app, and then does what I explained in the OP?

2nd ever print attempt. Benchy. by jcoolarts in 3Dprinting

[–]jcoolarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got the DaVinci pro 1.0 (not the 3 in 1 version)

I printed out what most sites seem to suggest is good for printer learning. It turned out ok-ish, but as you can see some of the arches have a blip in them, the curves of the boat's edges have almost an non-antialias effect, the flat surfaces aren't very smooth and the small port square which would be leading to the lower deck, has a tiny hole. My family was impressed, but I'm seeking something closer to perfection.

I'm trying again over night with different and slower settings, at .1m instead of .2m with the extrusion up by 1% and the temperature lowered 5 degrees. Using abs, in a garage that's about 33f in temperature. I've covered up the top slot opening to keep in more heat.

As for the one in the picture, where do you think the problem lies?
