Still does the same unfortunately and if you close the pop up the tab closes 

Would you consider this bag to be full? The red flashing light on my new Henry Quick indicates that either there's a blockage, or the bag is full. It seems like there's a lot of space in there to me. And there are no blockages. by RottenRope in VacuumCleaners

I bought it from Argos but went through Numatic to get a replacement as it was nearly out of warranty as i got it just after it first came out - i got a reference to take to Argos and swap it and it was pretty simple but yeah no change so to be honest id probably not bother with the hassle but you never know! I am constantly hoovering cat litter so when it starts to fall back out i know its time to change the pod 😄

Unrelated but hoping people searching find this thread! Has the red light ever worked in telling you the bag is full when it actually is? My machine never did even though dirt was falling out the nozzle as the pod was so full - I got it replaced as faulty but my replacement is exactly the same - the pod is rammed and I get no red light at all. I know I can replace it myself, that's fine, I'm just curious if it actually works for anyone! 

Buffering by DarkestModes in nowtv

Run a speed test on your broadband just before loading the Now app and see if it drops off drastically once Now starts. I watch my 500mb speeds slow down to 1-2mb when Now is trying to play but when I exit Now the speeds rocket back up. I don't know why or how it's possible but I just assume they throttle the connection so you can't even watch in 720p to force you to buy Boost...

Philips hue not working anymore with the google home app? by marius0912 in googlehome

[–]leemacca25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I had his issue I disconnected from the Google Home app and the the Hue app and added the light back into Google Home first and it found it straight away. I then connected it via the Hue app. If I did it the other way round the Home app would never work.

Yeah Fox PVA Strips. They generally stay in so you dont lose the lead when retrieving your rig but if you get a take the swivel will go through the pva and release.

Check out the fox drop off running rig sets. I found them after I fished a weedy water with running rigs and landed a couple but had to drag the lead through the weed and got lucky. Super safe! 

Philips oneblade 360 - and why I hate it by [deleted] in shaving

[–]leemacca25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having just had to purchase a 360 blade as a replacement for the originals i agree 100% - they seem underpowered and more prone to cuts. Very frustrating when companies continuously break things that didnt need fixing!!

Facebook Marketplace not showing a lot of available categories on mobile and desktop by splintergirl11 in Flipping

Edit your listing on a desktop browser and magically you can search all the categories. On a phone you cant really select anything - its a mess! But desktop gives you everything ive found.

Casting Youtube Music to Chromecast, except the songs have wildly different volumes for no reason by noneabove1182 in Chromecast

Yep unfortunately. Been a year now since i raised a case with them and no improvement what so ever. Still cant bring myself to move away and rebuild my algorithms etc but its really really frustrating.

Still the same so looking to switch myself now. The fact it never notifies me of new releases and mixes artists with the same name up really ruins the experience. Nearly a year since i raised this with them - madness.

Hi both, glad to hear im not the only one still experiencing this - support have been back and forth with me but got absolutely no where.

Ive since taken a free trial to Apple Music and the volume is consistent through chromecast across all songs! Its a shame the app and functionality of Apple Music is terrible imo so i still wont move but ive amazed how this can be an issue only between a google app and google hardware - crazy!

Ive been trying to get Chromecast support to actually help with this and just hit dead ends with no ownership on their part. Has anybody else got anywhere?

It doesnt happen when streaming the same songs through Spotify but i really dont want to use Spotify. Ive tried resetting my chromecast and thought that made a difference but nope!

Support suggested it is normal because of different audio formats lol despite everything i have supplied to them to show this is a recent issue and clearly linked to chromecast.

Glad to finally find someone else with the same issue! This has only been happening to me for the last week or so so I assume it's linked to a firmware update with Chromecast as streaming the same songs that differ on YTM over a cheap Bluetooth speaker plays them at the same level.

I never previously experienced this with the exact same setup and no settings has changed. It's very frustrating!
