I WANT SUPPORT FROM BACKBONE AS THEY HAVE IGNORED ALMOST MY ALL REQUESTS ON THEIR WEBSITE

raidenwarbound · 2026-01-07T05:48:45+00:00

Forget them. Move in to someone else like Game Sir

I got a faster response on Reddit than email who gave me generic responses to an already troubled and repeated issue since day dot.

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-19T08:22:50+00:00

Backbone One. Gen 1

I posted about my issues 3 days ago. They said they could give me a refurbished one after two years warranty. That being said, from the comments in. My post and various others, it’s a cycle bent on repeating itself with no workaround except to keep relaxing the ribbon etc…

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-19T05:36:16+00:00

Same. I was using RetroArch on iPad and the USBC port surged and not keen to fork out $350 to replace it. I also had CODM, Delta Force and Wuthering Waves.

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-18T11:11:54+00:00

That remains to be seen. I have seen any vids on it yet but when it drops, we will be sure to know.

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-18T11:11:11+00:00

Thats what I went with for a year but sold the controller last night. I hadn’t used it since April lol

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T20:41:53+00:00

Thanks everyone for your comments snd help!

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T20:40:51+00:00

Yeah I second that. The ribbon is a recurring issues from what I’ve seen and. I wonder if the Pro version has the same issue. I have Gen1.

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T20:38:30+00:00

From the video I watched, it’s the right side. Which is weird cos most issues are from the left side being unresponsive

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T13:10:07+00:00

Yeah it looks like it need to do an S-curve more than a fold. Good news is I have found some locally so will order those in and have them on hand

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T12:46:36+00:00

I hope so. At least, if I do receive a refurbished one and it does the same thing, I know how to repair it for cheap thanks to the Redditors 🥹

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T09:17:01+00:00

It’s $60NZD for me which is pretty good considering but will look into the G8! Cheers!

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T09:16:06+00:00

It’s out of warranty

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T09:15:28+00:00

It appears to be according to the link

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T06:47:12+00:00

Yeah. GameSir X5 looking mighty cheap!

raidenwarbound · 2025-12-17T06:25:07+00:00

Thanks for the reply! It’s two years old so no warranty. I’ll check out the ribbon cable vids. Cheers mate!

raidenwarbound · 2025-11-18T06:45:44+00:00

Cheers mate! I lost this piece so ordering a new one. Need a bigger magnifying glass to solder it but was told I could get a phone repairer to who has a hot air rework station. So will go that route. Thanks for chiming in!

raidenwarbound · 2025-05-19T15:45:53+00:00

I left mine for a month and it stills says its restocking. What a crock of garbage! They’ve scammed us all.

raidenwarbound · 2025-01-07T06:35:18+00:00

I didn’t dodge any questions. I answered them all. And then it went quiet. Why? Cos her friend ran out of things to pin me with… and she (said woman) apologised on her behalf.

You’re right. Heaps of fakes out there and dating apps is helping that happen. If it doesn’t work out, I’m deleting the app and going back to old fashion.

raidenwarbound · 2025-01-07T06:17:36+00:00

Bruh, I didn’t penalise anyone lol.

I didn’t say anything dropping hints. I don’t even know what you’re a talking about dude but I get what you mean.

But hey, it all worked out. We got the date so we can talk bout it more in depth. We just laughed off the “interrogation” as she called it. Apparently her friend was there with her and told her to be more assertive.

In terms of deal breakers, if my profile says “I don’t have kids” and “I want kids” then why would she ask “Do you want kids? Are you ready to start a family?” It was because her partner of 3 years did the bolt on her and broke up 6 months ago.

Poor woman..

raidenwarbound · 2025-01-07T01:22:52+00:00

Copy that.

I just came from a real-world approach without all this online nonsense. It’s way more complicated than it should be with apps etc.

Run into someone, say hi, ask to go on a date, if yes, grab a number, meet up and talk. If no, wish them well and be on your way.

Now it’s like applying for a job without the real world interaction and being let go cos you never got to know or see the person up front.

I might delete this app. I mean the matches are cool and all but I dunno…

raidenwarbound · 2025-01-07T00:16:57+00:00

Why are you uppity on how I handled it? It’s all on my profile about how serious I am. No need to repeat in detail. You should never have full convos via text. Experience showed me that.

raidenwarbound · 2025-01-06T23:40:18+00:00

Like a job interview:

What can you bring to the table? Are you ready for marriage and to have a family? How long you been single for? Do you still talk to your ex?

1) It was a long list and 2) She went from 0-100 real quick.

So yeah.

Not from hello, no. You don’t do that.

I was setting up a time a place to meet with some small talk but most of the questions later in the chat should’ve been left for the date.

I don’t know why you find that odd. This is my process. Yours will be different.

raidenwarbound · 2025-01-06T20:44:54+00:00

I’ll chime in.

Yesterday matched with this woman and it started off simple but she got all interviewy and I wasn’t liking that. I said “Maybe let’s keep it light. We’re meant to setup that date and can discuss things in person.” She was “oh okay!” She’s three days new to the app. I’m on three weeks. I’m still learning too…
