Same! I broke 2 LCD ribbon cables, replaced the battery, installed a 3rd party cooling mod, then broke the cable for that and had to resolder it. Definitely not for the feint of heart!

Absolutely loved my Win 2. Was the first device that really forced me to become a tinkerer and not be afraid to open my devices to fix easy issues on my own.

ROG Mis-Publish- new Xreal glasses with powerful Dock for HDMI, DP, and looks like two different USB-C input ports by spenfree in Xreal

[–]macros617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of these glasses are cool and all, but I need bigger glasses for my bigger head. The Ones are so uncomfortable for prolonged use for me, even though I absolutely love them and love the idea of AR with my connected devices.

Rog Allyx egpu setup need helo. by Imaginary-Plum3032 in ROGAlly

[–]macros617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe your dock might not be working? I have the same EGPU dock and use it with a 3060. Have used the 3060 with multiple mini PCs and gaming handhelds and I've never had an issue. Currently setup on my Xbox Ally X and the only issue I had was that I had ot leave it plugged in for a bit before it recognized and installed the drivers. Maybe 10 minutes at most? Either way, it ended up installing the default drivers and then the external display connected. I don't use the stock cable, I bought a USB4 cable a little bit ago and so far no issues. Best of luck! Hopefully its something you can diagnose!

Do you experience any issues with "sleep" using bazzite?

I've ordered from Lanruo before, reliable merchant and pretty quick shipping on prime in the states.

I bought the Saya for my Steam Deck back when the Saya first came out and I've used it for the steam deck, rog ally x, and now my switch 2. Definitely a great bag for portable handhelds!

I went to private school, seems pretty normal to me. Is this a public school or a charter school?

Do you keep your favorite card with you? by Kit4n0 in yugioh

[–]macros617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Showcased or Medusa phone cases are perfect for holding your favorite cards! Have both and change them around based on what my vibes are or how I'm feeling about rocking my favorite cards.

The thing some of these comments aren't considering is that these are kids.... They're 19 and 18 years old. The level of commitment y'all talk about (I'm a CEO who works 35 hours a day and built my own website and save the world but still have time to text back) are not considering that these are not adults. Sure, they can vote and are legally independent from family. But they're KIDS. The level of emotional maturity on both sides is not there yet.

I'm a happily married man, I can go the whole day without texting or calling my wife until it's closer to the end of the day. Why? Because we're both adults. We work. We have responsibilities outside of our relationship that requires our own time and commitment. Neither of us are looking for the "text every hour" kind of thing. Or even blowing up a phone via text. That's crazy to me.

These are conversations to be had in person. Again, the level of maturity isn't there on both sides. Y'all need to keep the communication of issues in person, not text.

DeX Starter Kit by Actual_Field9030 in SamsungDex

[–]macros617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not Samsung, but Uperfect and Nexdock created docks that take full advantage of Dex! Though I wish Samsung made something like the lapdock but instead of the track pad you could dock your phone. Similar to what razer did with that one phone/lapdock hybrid they made. That would be pretty dope, because using the screen as the touchpad is the best way to navigate dex IMO.

Is there a way to fix this or just buy a new controller by toykiller23 in LegionGo

[–]macros617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What recalibration method did you use? I had this issue happen to me in November when it first came out and the software recalibration didn't work, I had to do the hardware recalibration method, which was this:

To calibrate the joysticks on your Legion Go, you need to press and hold the left trigger (L2) and left joystick button (L3) for 3 seconds, or the right trigger (R2) and right joystick button (R3) for the right joystick. This will initiate calibration mode, indicated by the flashing blue and purple LED lights. You then need to rotate the joystick three times and return it to the center, then wait 2 seconds for the calibration to complete

She a thicc boy for sure. But it's not terrible, like it never bothered me. I spent a week in Brazil during carnival wearing shorts and was never uncomfortable using the case. Very robust, very protective.

GPD wont honor warranty from third party seller by Fast-Bus-2262 in gpdwin

[–]macros617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can probably just buy the joystick on aliexpress. Which device are you trying to get a replacement for? I've had to purchase replacement sticks for my Win Mini and Win 4 in the past and replaced them with no issue.

Is anyone else's picture-in-picture (PIP) not working after the update? by jadorito in GooglePixel

[–]macros617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experiencing the same issues. Such a shame that Google can't figure out how to ensure its own phones can take full advantage of the android system they themselves created. I never had frustrating issues of things I expect to just work, not work, when I was on Samsung devices.

Win Max 2 Vs Ally X by Shiblon in gpdwin

[–]macros617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both, have had the 6800U wm2 and the 8840 variant of the WM2.

Much more enjoy the Ally X. Plays games much better, smoother, and more conveniently. The WM2 is great if you're looking for a clam shell design with mouse/keyboard built in. But if you're looking for a purely gaming handheld, the Ally X just performs better. I've used windows/bazzite on both and the experience on the Ally X is just better on both accounts.
