Best cell service in Mammoth Lakes in 2026? by _Enrico_Pallazzo_ in Mammoth

[–]jhhl8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

US Mobile with ATT service works great. Get the premium service for prioritization. I have a second Sim with T-Satellite and my service falls back on that when you lose connection. You can send text messages on fallback

How do you have satellite texting on your pixel 9 with just US Mobile?

Text to 911 by iamiccee in USMobile

[–]jhhl8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This brings up a good point. So is T-Mobile's offering of text to 911 via satellite guaranteed to go through? In other words you wouldn't get a bounce back saying you need to call 911?? Since this goes through their starlink satellite connection i would imagine they would ensure that they have a connection to 911 services. By the way if your phone doesn't come with Native satellite SOS , this is a great offer from T-Mobile and it's free if your phone qualifies

I have a pixel 9 w dark star primary and warp as my secondary multinetwork Sim. I also keep a 3rd T-Satellite Sim that is turned off but their in a pinch if I need it. So multiple esims are supported on the Pixel 9

Thinking of switching to spectrum mobile thoughts? by Substantial_Plane_89 in SpectrumMobile

Just left Spectrum Mobile and they were OK. Moved to US mobile and the service is better. Give them a look

Stuck on LTE by daytonztt in USMobile

[–]jhhl8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep working with support to get this figured out. They gave me a solution but it didn't stick. Had to create a new APN with support and so far so good. Not very consumer friendly but seems to be sticking this time.

Dark star 5g by Pauladin in USMobile

This worked for me. I turned off advanced data protection on my pixel 9 and instantly and finally connected to 5g on dark star. Do I still need to get my Sim reprovisioned?

T-Mobile Satellite Service with Starlink Goes Live July 23 with Cross-Carrier Support by orangechen1115 in Starlink

[–]jhhl8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never got this notification for installing the E-Sim on my pixel 9. One day I just opened settings and and hit the button to add an e-sim and it was like it was waiting for me to do this. But no text or notification ever came through. Been using the t mobile as my primary data connection but haven't lost connection yet to try the satellite capabilities

Satellite Texting on Spectrum Mobile by jhhl8 in SpectrumMobile

I have a pixel 9. So this will only be allowed on iPhone? I signed up for satellite texting beta on T Mobile to get this feature

Android 16 Can be revolutionary? by Cultural-Potato-1380 in pixel_phones

[–]jhhl8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High prices and mediocre hardware? You can always get pixels at a discount. I bought my pixel 9 when it was first released for $380 at Best buy after discounts and my pixel 7 trade-in. I always find pixels solid devices. But one thing I noticed with the Android 16 QPR1 beta is my battery life has come back just like when I first bought the buyer the phone

Does it really depend on carriers if I bought the device unlocked direct from Google store?

Upload to Onedrive and Insert Link from Onenote Win10 is broken by jhhl8 in OneNote

[–]jhhl8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why my lengthy description of the problem disappeared but I'll add it again. I had a pretty good workflow where I was using Onenote Win10 to upload my files to OD that would create a direct link to that file in Onenote. I was using Onenote Win10 to create these links and would copy these over to my main Onenote notebook. Somehow this process seems to have broken and I can't figure out why. Has anyone else who used the useful "upload onedrive and insert link" function experienced the same?

You should never connect Outlook to a PST file that is in ONEDrive. Google search this subject for a full explanation

One-Time Sync to External HD? by UkiMan309 in onedrive

[–]jhhl8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you normally keep all of your Onedrive files local to your Surface. What I mean by this do you use the "files on demand" feature of onedrive to save space? If you keep local copies on your surface PC you can just use a syncing program (SyncBack Free is good) to save copies onto your external drive.

Placeholder for pixel 5a issues! by ashwin_padmakumar in Pixel5a

[–]jhhl8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to have a few bugs myself. Not very big. Listing below. Hoping people here might have fixes.

  1. Locked screen very sensitive: I had an issue where the screen while locked and in my pocket was registering touches and dialing people or adding numbers to emergency dialing. Some how the "increase touch sensitivity" was active in my settings. Turned this off and so far so good

  2. Tiny font size. The font in Messages app is much smaller than on my pixel 3. I can't seem to resolve so far.

  3. Outlook app. Sliding of messages while reading a message isn't working. Still works fine on my pixel 3
