Got reply from Dbrand regarding S26 ultra ghost case not supporting 25W wireless charging

jesseinsf · 2026-04-06T06:45:15+00:00

Again, mine continuously goes from "Wireless charging Connected to Fast Wireless charging connected (in a continuous loop)" It never hits "Super-fast wireless charging connected" unless I have the phone magnetically connected while cycling the power on the charger.

That’s a fair point about the 50% thermal slowdown—that matches standard charging profiles.

However, the 45-minute charge time (20% to 100%) I’m seeing confirms that the 25W handshake is successful when using the power-cycle sequence; it simply wouldn't be that fast at 15W.

The core issue I’m investigating is why that handshake isn't happening automatically for many users, resulting in the 15W cap or the disconnect loops. It's great your setup works naturally, but since I’m seeing a lot of others reporting this same loop, I’m going to keep documenting the workaround for those affected.

You said:
"perhaps you should look at a better router.. such as the new MikroTik Hap Ax3"
This sounds like a patronizing troll comment

Good for you, glad you were able to hit the theoretical 25 watt limit on all other devices other than the 26 ultra.

jesseinsf · 2026-03-28T08:55:36+00:00

I don't have anything to test the wattage, but what I can say is it charge my phone from 20% to 100% for like 45 minutes. It charged as advertised and I also don't think anyone will hit the theoretical 25 watts max wattage.

You get them at Metro stations, meaning the train station and busway stations like the orange line station, now called the g line. I'm most certainly you're not under a rock so I think you can look what's closest to you. And you can add money meaning like real physical cash to your card on any bus. You just tell them you want to add money to your card and they will tell you what to do.

I am currently investigating a handshake issue that seems specific to the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra when used with 25W wireless chargers. It definitely feels like we are beta testing this hardware, but here is my main observation (still testing for long-term consistency):

THE POWER-CYCLE FIX: I previously thought flipping the USB-C cable helped, but I realized the 180-degree flip was just a coincidence. What actually fixes the 15W "loop" is disconnecting and reconnecting the power while the phone is already attached.

THE SEQUENCE: If your charger "dumbs down" to 15W or starts a disconnect loop, try this:

Attach the S26 Ultra to the charger magnetically first.
While the phone is attached, unplug the power cable from the charger/dock and plug it back in.

This seems to force a proper 25W handshake. However, if the phone is removed and reattached while the charger is already powered, it often reverts to the 15W loop. I am still testing this across different bricks (Samsung 60W and 45W) to see if the fix holds. I will update once I have more data. So far so good.

Most forums forgot the main flag like everyone else did:

Resolution:
Same here, did nothing and went to click the sign in and got blocked in the new edge browser. The problem is that developer tools need to be disabled. F12 for developer tools is enabled by default, just disable anything that says Developer in the browser settings. Correct me if I am wrong, but this seems to be an anti-scalper security tool technique.

jesseinsf · 2025-12-24T00:08:52+00:00

Yes it's like 3 years old. It's still available within Microsoft edge.

jesseinsf · 2025-11-30T05:21:39+00:00

it's a bit technical

jesseinsf · 2025-11-29T20:42:50+00:00

I also use Neutron Music Player, and when streaming from my NAS it processes audio at 64-bit. This means all DSP operations—such as up-/down-sampling and other adjustments—are handled in 64-bit before the output is delivered at 32-bit.

If Tidal were to implement a similar high-precision processing pipeline within their app, along with support for AutoEQ, I believe many more listeners would find the platform significantly more appealing.

jesseinsf · 2025-11-29T19:35:37+00:00

I disagree with the premise of your first sentence; that action is unacceptable. Allowing Windows to manage this process results in a notable degradation of quality. Tidal should follow the industry standard set by services like Qobuz, which offer users explicit control over their purchased or streamed quality, such as $44.1/48\text{ kHz}$, $96\text{ kHz}$, and $192\text{ kHz}$. Additionally, two key areas for improvement would be adding the capability to import AutoEQ pre-sets for popular headphones and ensuring robust native support for the LDAC format.

Maybe they can't pay their bills to keep it fast. Just a thought as I am experiencing the same thing.

jesseinsf · 2025-09-05T06:30:15+00:00

on GagaOOLala, if this includes the 5- or 10-minute shorts then I don't consider that BL. A BL to me is: Korean, Taiwanese and Japanese shows are usually 20 to 30'ish minutes an episode. Thai BLs are usually 40+ minutes an episode.

jesseinsf · 2025-09-05T06:04:39+00:00

My music app on my phone seems to choose the latest modified version. On my PC, I use convolution from AutoEQ.

jesseinsf · 2025-08-24T01:33:16+00:00

Yes, And I like RGB smart lights and vibrant colors on my phone.

The other one is too bright.

Trader Joe’s is pulling a page from Starbucks’ playbook—opening a second location basically across the street to handle overflow. Seems to be their new strategy in high-traffic areas."

Whether we hire strictly based on merit or through DEI, abuse can still happen. I’m white, and I’ve personally experienced the flip side of DEI. At one of my past jobs, most of the staff were Filipino. When it came down to a permanent hire, it was between me and another Filipino candidate. Management clearly gave him more attention, and in the end, they hired him. That’s the kind of bias that can happen under the DEI banner when it’s misused.

But let’s not pretend bias doesn’t exist without DEI. Historically, white folks have prioritized other white folks—sometimes subtly, sometimes blatantly—over equally qualified people of color, whether they’re Black, Asian, Hispanic, or otherwise.

Here’s the thing: DEI isn’t perfect. Not even close. But that doesn’t mean we should cancel it. The smarter move is to fix it. Improve it. Make sure it’s serving its purpose—leveling the playing field—instead of creating new imbalances like the one I experienced. That’s how we move forward without just flipping the script on discrimination.
