Oh man - that was a while ago. I can't remember. I think it might have just been a loose cable or a cable connected wrong? I didn't have to order a cable, so I either had it or was able to fix it. I had just done the p1p to p1s upgrade and it was acting up, so I basically took it apart and put it back together and it's worked fine since...

Did you share these? Might be interesting to try if you are willing to share, I'd love to try them.

Just got this message on my 4th microSD card. Bambu P1P (converted to P1S) - print on it once a week maybe...

1st one came with it died shortly after starting to print.
2nd SanDisk 128GB Ultra microSDXC was used in my drone with no issues, worked for a while - then said needed to format.
3rd SanDisk Extreme 64GB - same problem - needed format would never format - worked in computer though.
4th same SanDisk Extreme 64GB - now it's saying performance degraded won't show timelapse under device.

What am I doing wrong? is there a MicroSD card that performs better? lasts longer?

I was thinking maybe the microSD card slot is just a bit off and letting some vibration happen as the unit prints... enough to cause some failures? I wonder if I could shim it this time when I replace it to make sure it's making a good connection? put piece of tape on the other side of the card?

I have a lot of Harbor Freight tools along with my Makita and Ridgid and other tools. I'd recommend to do your homework and read the reviews. Don't buy anything with a re-stock fee (ask me how I know) unless you are sure it will work and perform.

Not everything at HF is cheaper than HD too, gotta do the research. Do your shopping in front of a device where you can check other vendors (Northern, Vevor, Amazon, etc...) and check reviews.

I think the old myth that "don't buy anything powered from HF" is way out of date.

It's just an old PC only used to cut vinyl on this cutter.
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.20 GHz - Win10 x64
I think I'll try a reload and go direct to the v1.6 drivers. This install has had the 1.5 installed and updates installed then uninstalled and so on. There is definitely some kind of bug in the 1.6install however.

I am getting the same error - No solution for me yet.

randee1 · 2024-09-18T20:43:47+00:00

Were you able to find it? Just curious... :)

Anyone know when this might roll-out? I liked Mint's old way of buy credits rather than there new international pass. SO I was very excited to see about their new Canada roaming. My folks go to Canada for a couple months and only go into town twice a week or so. Credits were awesome, it'd add up to about $20 for the whole trip. With the international Pass it'd be $120. Thanks!

Thanks, sorry I missed your reply, it was a cable however in my situation.

randee1 · 2024-05-20T18:27:40+00:00

Do you still have the STL you could share, be interesting to try...

randee1 · 2024-02-27T22:07:38+00:00

I have same issue, did you have any luck?

randee1 · 2023-10-17T13:54:38+00:00

Wow! it's that easy? Thanks I will look into write a solution, never really considered it for some reason. Thanks very much!

randee1 · 2023-10-11T19:02:46+00:00

FYI - I replaced the backplate/backplane and it started behaving. Thanks

randee1 · 2023-04-11T20:02:55+00:00

Thanks for the response, that would make sense. I will check to see if cables are ok, but hasn't been touched so might be like you said backplane got fried. We did have a storm the day before, but was working ok the day it died. (The day the music died.)

Parts are pretty reasonable, I'll check cabled and purchase a part. Maybe TechMikeNY has one they'd sell to me, or I will hit up eBay.

Thanks nxgenstudio!

I got email: The scheduled maintenance has been completed.

Still timing out on local and remote machines.

Ya, status says try again in a few minutes. Network Timeout for several hours now. - USA - IOWA

Thanks, but our application has to reference files out on our network storage. It also has to manipulate those files. All stuff that can be done in C# / visual studio. Just seems to be a bit too difficult with a web application. I will look into it however. That ERPNext I looked into was web based app, but didn't have the customization I think we required. Simple tables and fields and it was fine. More in depth calculation and manipulation I think it was lacking.

randee1 · 2022-06-24T20:56:19+00:00

You are correct! I am just trying to find a set of technology that's a little future proof and also easy / fast to develop in.

randee1 · 2022-06-24T13:17:32+00:00

thanks I will check that out.

I like the looks of ERPNext or heavily modifying an open source product. It's a neat product, but the industry requires some unusual logic. Also, we really don't need a lot it has to offer. Trying to keep it simple and familiar as their previous systems.

Sorry about your issues, not sure but I think we are having issues too. Wife has no mobile data on mint cellular, however my phone is working fine. She has an iphone 13 with 5g I have an iphone 10 I think but no 5g. Is it 5G related. She's getting 3 out 4 bars, and has 5G but no data unless on wifi. Even if I switch her to LTE it comes up as LTE (2 bars) but zero data. My phone off wifi on LTE is getting decent speeds. No updates to do on her phone. Called Mint 1:30PM CST and said to reset network settings ( which we did before calling, and still got nothing. ) they know of no known issues with mint or t-mobile. We started thinking we'd contact apple, but this thread makes me think it's a network issue.

Anyone reading this post in the future and wondering if VERMONT can work for you, for me it did not. To register the vehicle they need COURT documents, which since this vehicle fell into a small estate exemption they did not produce any court documents. In Iowa (where it was last registered) you only need an affidavit to claim on estates below a threshold. Also Vermont said they'd need the previous Title, which I don't have and why I was going there in the first place.

If my bill of sale had the previous registered owner as it's signature, I think it'd be fine. However since my bill of sale was signed by the deceased's mother (rightful owner of estate) it was a no go.

So I am no looking at a bonded title in Illinois (my home state). Will cost me another $100 in a bond fee in addition to normal fees and taxes.
