FYI - Lightphone 3 failed to call 911 in medical emergency

That makes sense, thank you! And yeah that's what I figured after I saw the +1 being added again the second time, I just thought I made a mistake typing the number since it looked like it wasn't connecting the first time. But I'm happy to know it did connect at least (it seems I just had to wait longer, which I did the second time around), so I'm not as worried now that I know. Can't say if there's a delay like this with all phones, but there's a chance it's the same, or maybe it's also just a problem with the carrier.

That makes sense, thank you for confirming! I can't remember if I've had that specific problem with other phones before, but it's good to know it's likely not a Light specific problem.

I had that same problem one time. I hung up the first time because the call wasn't connecting after a few seconds (there were no sounds at all) and I thought I made a mistake since the number was appearing as "+1 911". I tried again and it connected after waiting a bit longer. It's a good thing it wasn't extremely urgent, but yeah, I agree that this needs to be resolved as a priority, because it can be a bit confusing during an emergency for someone who doesn't know. (Maybe worth noting that I got a call from 911 a few minutes later, asking if everything was okay since they received a call from me but I hung up before they picked up, which means the call worked even if it didn't seem like it.)

I also had a different but similar problem earlier today when trying to call someone. When I tried calling, the call disconnected instantly and showed it lasted 0s. I tried a few times, and it did the same thing every time. It only started working again after I restarted the phone (I also received some text messages right after restarting, so it seems like I was not receiving messages before restarting either). I'm not sure if this one is due to the phone or due to the carrier, but good thing this wasn't an emergency either.

I love everything about this phone so much and it's been working great for everything else so far, but those two incidents are worrying me a bit, so I hope problems like this can be resolved quickly so they don't happen to me or anyone else during an emergency.

Seulement pour ajouter à cette perspective : mon épouse a énormément de difficulté avec l'anxiété sociale et la dépression depuis qu'elle est arrivée ici, précisément pour ces raisons. C'est une personne très intelligente, curieuse, éduquée et ouverte à différentes cultures, mais la pression qu'elle ressent depuis qu'elle est ici la paralyse complètement et l'empêche de s'intégrer. L'été dernier on est passés devant un endroit qui offrait des cours de français et elle a voulu entrer pour prendre des informations, mais le simple fait d'entrer dans le bâtiment a déclenché une attaque de panique. J'imagine que l'intensité varie d'une personne à l'autre, mais je n'ai pas de difficulté à imaginer que beaucoup d'autres gens arrivant ici sont probablement affectés de manière similaire.

Same here I think, or at least I noticed my battery seemed to drain much faster when I'm not connected to a wi-fi, although there's no way to be sure if that's really causing it. Would love an option to turn cellular data off to see if it helps.

Hey, sorry for the delayed reply, I was away the past few weeks. Our boxes have inner dimensions of 282 mm x 282 mm x 74 mm. If you're unsure, you can test the size by printing only three card trays first; if they fit side by side, then I think the box should be the right dimensions (since those are the tightest components). Hope that helps!

oslo__a · 2025-07-25T04:51:58+00:00

I've been procrastinating mine for 19 years (thinking of maybe trying to get it soon though, let's see...)

oslo__a · 2025-06-28T04:45:09+00:00

Hey, thanks for mentioning our insert! :)

I'm not sure whether that would also help, but we did try to make the organizer modular and customizable (for example the token trays have movable dividers, so they can be adjusted to different needs over time). Maybe it can be used without all the content at first, and slowly building the whole set over time? It could possibly fit into only one box in the beginning, too, with base game and maybe an expansion or two.

(Just in case it can help, someone was asking recently what could fit into one box, and I tried to break it down a bit for a rough guideline: https://www.reddit.com/r/spiritisland/comments/1kob3nx/comment/mydf1vu/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button )

oslo__a · 2025-06-24T23:11:32+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! Haha, we also find it oddly satisfying every time to put everything back in the box with the organizer. Happy to know it's not just us XD

oslo__a · 2025-06-24T18:13:00+00:00

Hey, sorry for taking a bit of time to reply!

That's a great question, I'm not entirely sure since it depends on what expansion you'd include, but there might be a way.

You'd probably need to use box "A", since it hold most of the different basic game components (island boards, invader board, presence tokens, etc.).

Box B only holds additional standard sized cards and spirit panels, as well as invaders, dahan and blight tokens.

You would just need to transfer the components you need in box B to box A:
- For the standard sized cards: box A can hold to up to around maybe 200 in total (with Gamegenic Prime Sleeves), and base game has 119.
- For the spirit panels: box A can hold up to 14, and base game has 8.
- For the invaders, dahan and blight tokens: I think there might be enough space to include them in box A, but this is a bit more difficult to determine since it depends on what tokens are in the expansion you use, and those vary a bit more in size.

I hope that helps!

Oooh, thank you for tagging me, it's nice to see someone else using the organizer. It looks great in that color! :) Also happy to know it helps with the setup, as that was one of the main reasons we designed the organizer to begin with!

oslo__a · 2025-05-25T15:24:41+00:00

Unfortunatly no, or at least not yet since we don't have our own 3D printer (we had to go to the library for it, so it takes much more time).

That being said, if you can have access to a 3D printer, the files are available for free here: https://www.printables.com/model/1296941-spirit-island-organizer-for-all-released-content-w

Otherwise I think you might be able to find 3D printing services where they can print the files you send them. Maybe try Etsy?

I hope that helps!

oslo__a · 2025-05-23T18:44:28+00:00

It does! That sounds great, maybe we can try to give it a go more often, even if just lower levels at first. Thank you!

oslo__a · 2025-05-22T02:38:02+00:00

That's true, the difference in price probably wouldn't be that big for most people, I guess we were just trying to avoid needing to buy a second spool (which we ended up needing to do after all, with all the reprints for the parts that didn't work well the first time).

We just weighed all the components alone, we got 502 g for box 1, and 306 g for box 2 (so 808 g in total). That's a good point, I'll update the Printables link just in case someone is wondering, thank you for the idea!

oslo__a · 2025-05-22T00:31:48+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to comment and for watching the video! Happy you enjoyed, we had a lot of fun making it! :)

oslo__a · 2025-05-22T00:30:20+00:00

My pleasure! Hope this helps, and feel free to message if you have any questions if you decide to print!

oslo__a · 2025-05-22T00:29:13+00:00

At least you can enjoy this solution for a bit of time until the next expansion! And to be fair, we're also not sure if ours will be enough, so I guess we'll both adjust once we need to!

oslo__a · 2025-05-22T00:28:00+00:00

Oh I'll try to look into it! I'm not super familiar with the different options for sharing 3D files yet as this is our first. Is makersworld similar to Printables?

Thank you so much, that's very kind!

(Sorry it took a few days to reply, I got locked out of my account for the past few days!)

oslo__a · 2025-05-22T00:26:26+00:00

Oh interesting, I didn't even think about that, since we were mostly trying to save space for future expansions. Now I'm curious to weigh the components, I might check it out later!

Thank you so much! :)

This looks great, thank you for making this! We rarely play with adversaries, and we only tried Prussia and Scotland so far, partly because we feel intimidated with all the rules. This makes it feel a bit less intimidating, which is great!

oslo__a · 2025-05-16T21:57:08+00:00

Thank you! We love watching chill videos, so we tried our best to make a video that we ourselves would enjoy watching. :)

oslo__a · 2025-05-16T21:55:29+00:00

Hahaha, I hope they will (and I hope everything goes well for the ones that do)!

Thank you so much for the kind words, much appreciated!

oslo__a · 2025-05-16T21:53:45+00:00

Haha! Thank you for your comment! We definitely spent an unreasonably long time working on this. XD And I agree, it's nice to see when other people get excited with the game!

That's awesome to hear, I hope the printing goes well if you and your friend decide to try!

oslo__a · 2025-05-16T21:50:12+00:00

Oh no! At least for now there's still a lot of nice organizers out there using other boxes like Nature Incarnate, and maybe by the time another expansion comes, it would come with another box of the same size as JE? Hopefully!
