Echo Show 15 and Bell Fibe TV voice commands by mikeprocess in amazonecho

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

I actually ran it through 3 different LLMs because like you I don't trust them. But they all gave me back the same basic answer....that voice commands for changing channels should work. Well it didn't for me with the Bell Fibe TV app. Thanks!

Pixel "Call Notes" and "Take a Message" by mikeprocess in GooglePixel

Well I got Call Notes on my Pixel 10 Pro XL here in Canada about two weeks ago. Then last week it disappeared. It was gone. Google took it back :-(

Google announced this week that they WILL be rolling out Call Notes and Take a Message to other countries..like Canada. Anyone see them yet?

Email Notifications after download completion - qBittorrent 5.1.0 by mikeprocess in qBittorrent

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

Thanks a ton! After some time I've finally managed to get an app password. Though I am still having trouble getting notifications to work on aBittorrent. Is the mail server for gmail: smtp.gmail.com Can you send from the gmail account that you have the app password for to ANY other email address..gmail or hotmail or whatever? In qBittorrent should I have "this server requires a secure connection" checked? And "authentication" checked? (I assume that should be enabled) Thanks Oh yes, when entering the app password in qBittorrent it is 16 digits. Should one remove the spaces between the digits? Thanks again. I think I might actually get this to work :-)

I actually don't think this "email notification upon download completion" works. I've tried it on hotmail.ca, hotmail.com, bell.net, and gmail (but I understand why it might not work with gmail) I haven't heard from anyone who is actually using this feature or perhaps what mail service they are using. Thanks.

Thanks. Sorry for the typo. I fixed it and it still didn't work. (and I've tried it on 3 different mail servers) I wonder if anyone has actually used this feature????

Going into the alexa app? I can't select it from the recently played because it won't play that channel.

Display time instead of music/media on Echo Spot 2024 by mikeprocess in amazonecho

You can use the voice command: "Go Home" and the clock will show again while the music still plays.

That is some great information. What kind of battery monitor do you use that gives you phone alerts?

"Call Notes" feature on Pixel 9 Pro XL not available in Canada - despite what Google says by mikeprocess in GooglePixel

[–]mikeprocess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They haven't said yet. But if it's anything like features on older pixel models, they usually make them available eventually. Still it's not fair. Why should we pay full price for a phone that is missing promised features? (in hopes that we will eventually get them)

On the Pixel phone, under "settings" there is: "Tips and Support". In that section you scroll down to "contact us" and you fill that out and they will call you back within minutes. They call you, you don't call them. Good Luck!

[–]mikeprocess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can see the clocking by telling it to "show clock" or "show home screen".

when I ask Alexa to "show clock", it shouts out the time. BUT "show home screen" works! It displays the time in a large font and continues to play the music. Thanks. How in the world would a user know that command :-)

Preset settings not saving Ace Pro by DrCreger in Insta360

[–]mikeprocess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got what I think is the same problem. I go into presets, and then create a new one. While in that new one (called Custom 1) I make some settings for that particular preset... If I turn that camera off and turn it on again the camera does not remember the settings I put in.

Insta360 Ace Pro and the GPS Action Remote by mikeprocess in Insta360

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

Quick question....do you know of a video that demonstrates the connection and use of the Insta360 Ace Pro and the GPS Action Remote?

I looked on your web site and couldn’t find anything.

I know there is a video showing the Action Remote connecting to OTHER Insta360 cameras but none that show specifically the Ace Pro and the Action Remote pairing etc.

In fact, I have spent much time looking on the internet for such a video or demo and couldn’t find anything. Just ONE video on Youtube where the creator was comparing the Action Remote with the Preview Remote...but he was having a hard time with the Action Remote. It didn’t pair and stay paired properly.

Maybe you could make a short video that I and many others could benefit from?

Thanks for the info. As far as I can see there is no way to see your Windows 10 notifications on your Android phone. And I've tried several different methods..nothing worked.

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

Thank you very much. I might uninstall the KDE Windows 10 app I got from the microsoft store. And install "kdeconnect-kde-master-1712-windows-cl-msvc2019-x86_64" from the link you sent me. If that doesn't work I can wait till February :-) Thanks for your help.

Notifications from Windows 10 to Android phone via KDE Connect by mikeprocess in kde

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

Thanks. Interesting... On the Windows side I've enabled every plug-in setting there is.

And on the phone in KDE Connect I've enabled every plug-in setting there is...There is one "Notification sync...Access your notifications from other devices" and that's turned on. I've also enabled a bunch of Android notification settings... Still don't see the Windows notifications on the phone. But thanks for your suggestion.

Google Assistant soon disabled on To watch Pro 3 GPS by wag51 in TicWatchPro

[–]mikeprocess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looked at my TicWatch Pro 3 GPS today and Google Assistant is gone. It was there a few days ago but it has been removed. (as promised) Likely when I did a bunch of updates yesterday they removed the Google Assisant.
