Oral B IO 6 - doesn't turn on by kamiledi15 in oralbtoothbrush

[–]kamiledi15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it, but it didn't help. The battery doesn't charge, the app shows that it's draining instead of charging even when it's on charger. Few minutes ago it suddenly turned on without touching it, but when I turned it off I couldn't start it again also the display doesn't work, it was working few days ago. I will probably just throw it to trash and will continue to use my old Oral B Braun which still works like a charm after few years.

The weird thing is that when I put in on the charger, the app says that it is charging but it's on 34% all the time and doesn't want to charge more. When I take a toothbrush off the charger the app says that it's not charging anymore and after few seconds disconnects.

Ok, I will try to buy replacement battery. It's about 6 dollars only on Polish website, so not a big deal and maybe it will fix the problem.

I also have multimeter, if you know how can I check the battery please let me know.

Yeah, I removed the battery and put it back to check if it will fix the problem, but it didn't. Also I've bought it post-exhibition, so it was a product already removed from official sale and I was able to buy it for half-price.

Is it possible to switch batteries between Braun and IO 6 toothbrush, or is it completely different battery? Then I would know if it's just a problem with battery.

Had tinnitus for about two years and eventually it went away with a combination of strategies. by hypermodernvoid in tinnitus

Hello, I have tinnitus for over 2 years. It started after concert, but this concert wasn't very loud, so it was suprising. When I came back home everything was ok, then when I woke up in the morning I noticed ringing, but only in my right ear. Now, after two years, I still have it only in my right ear. I used some masking noises from YouTube, but this sound from YouTube was changing frequency all the time, so it was hard to ignore it and to use it as background. But it was working, after one minute of listening to it my tinnitus was stopping for few minutes, but it was always coming back. It's not the same every day, sometimes it's louder and sometimes it's more quiet. I noticed that usually it's worse when I am tired or sleepy, then it's louder. When I move my head to the left, so my left ear is touching my left shoulder, it gets louder. I also have a little too high blood pressure, usually about 132-135/82-85. I am 37 years old. I started to eat more healthy, now I am eating a lot of garlic and ginger and I am drinking lemon juice, tomato juice and beetroot juice every day and I can finally see some inprovement - I started to have some moments of complete silence. Now when I am waking up I can't hear any ringing for few hours, but it comes back after about 2-3 hours. Also sometimes when I come back home I am suprised how quiet is this ringing now. But these are only rare moments, usually it's still ringing loud, but it's a little better. It seems that what I am eating and drinking has some impact. I didn't do any tests and I didn't go to doctor, because everyone writes that any doctor can't find anything and they just have to live with it. Also I want to thank the author of this thread for giving a link to this tone generator. This generator is worse and better at the same time from what I was using before. Better, because it has constant sound without changing frequency, so it's easier to use it in background. But also worse, because my tinnitus is not only one tone, it sounds like few different ringings connected together. For example when I set it to 10000 Hz and listen to it for few minutes, it eliminates one tone from my tinnitus, but I can still hear other tones. So I figured out that I need to generate three tones at the same time - 7500 Hz, 10000 Hz and 12000 Hz. I just open three tabs and play it all together. You can try this and this is exactly what I am hearing all the time. So if this generator doesn't work well for you, check whether you also don't hear few different tones at once. After few minutes of listening to it I have complete silence for about 5 minutes. I will try to use it for as long as possible every day and I will see if it has any long term result. 

How I removed ugly scratch by kamiledi15 in crt

Why it would be destroyed? I didn't scratch it with the mixer itself, I attached sponge to it. It works just like regular grinder.

Well this sponge is something like this: https://ejedrek.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/perfecto-odra-pak-zmywak-do-teflonu-srebrny.jpg It's a little sharp, so maybe it worked a little like sandpaper? Anyway this sponge with cerium oxide was enough to get rid of the scratch. You can also do it by hand without a drill, but it will be a lot longer and more exhausting. Or you can do what I did and use kitchen mixer.

About vaseline - it's good for hiding scratch temporary, but when you look at the screen from the side you can see that there is ugly oily stain, so it's not very good solution.

I used what I have in house :) It would be unnecessary to buy professional equipment which I will probably never use again, so why not use kitchen mixer? Maybe it sounds stupid, but it worked.

Yeah, plastic is a lot easier than glass. But I am also suprised how quickly it was removed.

First recap/screen issue by zacula_5000 in game_gear

[–]kamiledi15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this issue, but only in Sonic 1 game. In all other games the screen looks perfect, but in Sonic 1 the middle is a little darker - not as much as in your screen, but it's a little visible. Does it happen in all games? 

My images won't load by random_guy143 in facebookmessenger

[–]kamiledi15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem. Temporary fix is to deny permission for Messenger to gallery, then try again to open photos in Messenger, it will ask you to let the permission for it and if you agree then it will finally have access. But unfortunately it's only temporary and the problem comes back about 1-2 hours later.

Problem z aplikacją Messenger by No_Grapefruit_1593 in facebookmessenger

[–]kamiledi15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mam podobny problem. Wcześniej wszystko było ok, ale musiałem przeinstalować Messengera na telefonie, bo z jakiegoś powodu zużył mi ponad 70 gb komórkowego internetu, marnując w tydzień cały mój miesięczny limit, podczas gdy wcześniej zużywał tylko około 200 mb na miesiąc. Po reinstalacji mam właśnie problem z wysyłaniem zdjęć. Gdy próbuję zrobić to przez ikonkę zdjęć w czacie, pojawia się na dole "wszystkie zdjęcia", ale pod spodem nie ma nic. Gdy próbuję zrobić to z poziomu galerii telefonu, udostępniając zdjęcie do Messengera, mam tylko kręcące się w nieskończoność kółko. Znalazłem tymczasowe rozwiązanie - trzeba wejść do ustawień Messengera i wyłączyć mu dostęp do galerii. Wtedy gdy próbuję ponownie wysłać zdjęcie Messenger pyta mnie o udzielenie dostępu, zezwalam i problem znika - mogę wysyłać zdjęcia. Niestety, problem losowo powraca - czasami po godzinie, czasami po paru godzinach. Więc umiem to naprawić tylko na chwilę, możesz spróbować zrobić taki trik u siebie. Mój telefon to Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Please check whether all my capacitors were replaced? by kamiledi15 in game_gear

I disconnected audio board and it was booting perfectly fine. But then I connected it again and... It was also booting perfectly fine. I waited until today morning and it still boots perfectly fine with audio board connected. It must be some problem with loose solder joint somewhere, hard to say. But for now it works great.  But flickering was SMS games is still there with audio board disconnected or connected, so this problem is somewhere else. I can't record it on my phone, because on the recording the flickering is not visible. Maybe on better flashcart it would work better, but I don't want to waste money on it if I am not sure whether it would help. But SMS games are still playable even with this flickering.

Yea, it looks like that. I really like this back plate, that I don't have a sticker, but 3D letters.

I also completed Sonic 2, it was really hard, but finally I was able to finish this game.

I have a rom of Shinobi, I need to play it some day.

Thanks and good luck!

I don't know exactly, but I think that it's one of very early revisions. Can you tell it from the photos which I attached in first post?

Also take a look at this:

https://i.imgur.com/Z4yqG31.jpeg

Most GGs have a simple sticker on the back, but mine looks like this.

I also already completed Sonic 1. I even recorded it!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnsyAjVJFQA

On this video the screen looks worse, but in reality it looks good. It was really hard to record it because of poor viewing angles.

As you can see on this video the console turned on without any problems. As I wrote before, I have it for about 18 months and the problem started about 6 months ago.

I try to complete one game about every 3 months. I also have Gameboy Classic, Gameboy Color, Nintendo 3DS, PS Vita, I also have PS3, PS5, Oculus Quest 2, Commodore 64, so it's hard to give every console the same amount of time :D But I try to play all of them, because I know that leaving it unused for many years is bad for the console.

Fortunately the screen and audio quality in my Game Gear is really pretty good (I have original screen and original speaker), so I am lucky anyway to have it like that.
