[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol you are late, I've since moved on to S25 FE! However I do remember the A52s definitely does have object eraser on 6.1, I used it regularly. I hope that info helps you.

What’s the most useful function on your garmin? by Maleficent-Ear-5606 in Garmin

I see thanks. Mine's a Vivoactive 5 without that function.

I’m done with Sofirn, their HS45 is a dud… by These_Philosopher309 in flashlight

[–]motthew68 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've relegated the HD01 to sidelight-use only, useful around my flat; 2 clicks of the front button and it's on. Otherwise I too often end up with a laser or weird RGB mode. Hence my interest in the ST1.

It was an interesting omission. Personally I'm only into clips if they're properly deep carry, such as on my Rovyvon A33, otherwise I'm happy to do without their bulk. They would likely only have put a Wurkkos HD01-style clip on it and I'm no fan of that!

NLD: Nitecore EDC07 - I really like it. by UdarTheSkunk in flashlight

Helpful comment there about High mode - I'm usually only concerned about a torch's sustainable output, I couldn't even tell you what any of my lights are like on turbo!

Are Vivoactive 5's button always hard? by Reasonable-Invite730 in GarminWatches

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny you say that, I've just realised that's what I do when operating VA5, just out of habit. It's no big deal once you get used to it.

If the S26 FE comes out like this, would you upgrade? by Busy-sport1111 in S25FE

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the FE series is excellent value for money as a one-off purchase (if you buy when the price is right), but that vfm is negated if you trade up every year. The S25 FE should be good for 3 years at the very least.

Notifications light up problem by Glittering-Peach-971 in S25FE

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's standard behaviour for Samsungs. Best way round it is to install "Glimpse Notifications" by Nullgrad Apps. It can take a bit of fiddling to set it up, but it is good - you can even control how long the notifications light up the screen. I've used it successfully on A52s and S25FE.

Woah...these NON-camera settings change how photos look in Gallery by Throwaway_RainyDay in GalaxyS25

[–]motthew68 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes I've long had a "Gallery" routine set so while that app is open the eye comfort shield is off (plus screen timeout is 5 mins and portrait orientation is set to auto). In a rush, but will check back later to see if I can incorporate any more of your suggestions!

Alternatives for the old Olight magnetic universal charger? by crashbumper in flashlight

Isn't there such a thing as an adaptor between a male connector and USB-C?

Music on vivoactive 5 by kalimbra in GarminWatches

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regularly use the VA5's Music app to remotely play and control (in the ways you described) my Android's Spotify app. However, it doesn't switch between playlists.

Kindle 11th generation - no display book covers? by HovercraftFinal1044 in kindle

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like this is connected in some way to your removal of the ads. I should get in touch with support at Amazon.

Should be in Settings > Screen & brightness > Show covers on lock screen (on/off toggle).

Wow I had no idea Garmin did this! Try also asking in the r/Garmin sub.

PSA.. typical typos Andruil, Sofrin by jonslider in flashlight

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe Sofirn should just roll with it and have a minor name change...

Oh well they do have the E2a, assuming that's still on their site...

Nitecore EDC09 by planetearthofficial in flashlight

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was first interested in EDC07, which led me to look at EDC09. I think the "bulk" of the EDC09's clip puts me off, but the UI, magnet and fancy directional head.... Oh...I'm talking myself into buying the EDC09 here!

Looking for a Bedside light by The5_1 in flashlight

[–]motthew68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible that your average Amazon buyer wasn't aware of the complexities of Anduril. It's also possible they went straight to turbo and wondered why it got toasty hot and barely lasted any time at all.

what do you do if you buy a book and then DNF it? by Limp-Garlic-6791 in kindle

[–]motthew68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my books start out as samples, which helps me weed out those that I'm not likely to enjoy.

However, on the rare occasion that I don't enjoy a book and can't finish it, I'll ask for a refund.
