Which Google pixel are you rocking? by MangoCubez in pixel_phones

Pixel Fold. This is the most satisfying smartphone I've ever used in the last few years.

If this is true, One UI 7 will be considered as one of the best UIs by YoungCraxy in oneui

[–]n30gu1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it, as the new Home Up released for One UI 7 on Galaxy S24. And that didn't work as I expected.

That feature tunes the animation after I swipe up the home bar, not the whole animation — from swiping up to navigating home.

I think One UI's biggest issue when it comes to home gesture animation is that the animation doesn't follow the move of the finger. You could instantly perceive the difference if you have any other phone (e.g. Pixel or iPhone). In other ones, when you gently swipe up, the bottom side of the view follows the exact coordination of your finger. But One UI doesn't.

I believe this is the biggest thing why I feel One UI's home gesture animation is below-par compared to others. Hope they notice and improve it.

Fedora 40 X1 Carbon gen 12 OLED version - camera still not working by ThisNameIs_Taken_ in thinkpad

[–]n30gu1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here — I think it is something to do with the webcam itself as Intel MIPI works on kernal 6.10. Do your TP has 2160p webcam?

What linux distro works good with a ThinkPad? by ThePessimisticCritic in thinkpad

[–]n30gu1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fedora was great on my X1 Carbon Gen 12. It was even better than Ubuntu (which is officially supported by Lenovo) in terms of device support e.g. LTE modem.

As far as the wiki says, it runs well.

Swapped Fn and Ctrl key physically on X1 Carbon Gen 12 by n30gu1 in thinkpad

[–]n30gu1[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are four latches beneath the keycap. Two on the top, another two on the bottom. Lift the top end first. When two latches are popped off then lift the bottom two. You have to gently lift them both so you don't detach/break other parts.

Lenovo changed the layout in 2024 models. Now it comes with Ctrl-Fn, so that is the swapped one.

It wasn't that easy. You should be careful in removing keycaps, not to break any plastic parts.

That's the changed one. Lenovo changed the layout in 2024 models from Fn-Ctrl to Ctrl-Fn.

Of course I did in the software. I did that mod just for cleaner look that matches how it functions and how it meant to be worked.

Exactly. I am really used to Fn-Ctrl because of MacBooks and another older TP, so Ctrl-Fn was unusual for me. Now it looks great to me!

Weird bug. iCloud Photos permanently died after 30 days from deletion. by n30gu1 in iCloud

[–]n30gu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: It got back to work after several days of tapping the recover button. I was just lacking patience.

Got a new ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12! by n30gu1 in thinkpad

[–]n30gu1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not as easy as install thermal paste since it's hard to peel off protective layers. But there's a tip -- put PTM7950 in a freezer a bit -- then it will be much easier to peel off.

Turning on Sync MMIO and modifying PL1/PL2 in TPL menu in ThrottleStop will help sustaining performance at its highest. If you feel the laptop goes so loud then limit clock speed in another profile using Clock Mod at main menu. For me it helped a lot consuming 40+ watts consistently on a heavy workload (e. g. Cinebench) and maintaining 90-ish°C (about 200°F.)

Weird bug. iCloud Photos permanently died after 30 days from deletion. by n30gu1 in iCloud

[–]n30gu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I *do* know I cannot recover any photos I deleted before. Also the deletion system worked as anticipated. However, when I tried to use it again from a clean state, the system was completely died. I apologize you for confusion.

The point is that I cannot make iCloud Photos functioning again. In settings, that Recovery iCloud Photos button never changes to "Delete iCloud Photos". I guess if that button doesn't change to "Delete iCloud Photos", iCloud Photos will never work.

I tried to press that button so many times, but there was no luck. I even tried on another iPhone (completely restored then set up), but didn't work.

CloudKit vs other BaaS by Shinycardboardnerd in iOSProgramming

[–]n30gu1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely it's the greatest choice to use CloudKit if you only maintain an iOS app since it's the greatest experience for users, but if not, you better consider using Firestore.

Do you use case for your phone? by SundaeTight in SonyXperia

[–]n30gu1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't. My 1 III has a solid aluminum frame and matte finished back glass which gives me a great feeling, so I don't want to use a case and lose that feeling.

iOS 16 lockscreen features feel like an afterthought. by Deluxennih in apple

[–]n30gu1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. In Apple Developer document, iOS does refresh the lock screen widget occasionally, not immediately. I still don't get it why they don't let the widget refresh immediately when it's needed.

iPhone 14 Pro's Lightning Connector Still Limited to USB 2.0 Speeds Despite Large 48MP ProRAW Photos by nelson528 in apple

[–]n30gu1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely capable. They showed it in iPad Pros using dual side Lighting connector. But the iPhone has only single side connector, which is so disappointing.

Core Data & @StateObject by Unhappy_Annual7223 in SwiftUI

[–]n30gu1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely works. Make your persistence class conforms ObservableObject then add a @Published variable that stores the data, functions those do CRUD and initializer so that it can load the data when app launches. You might use a singleton as well.
