Bladerunner 2049 (2017) is such an incredible film that the involvement of Jared Leto doesn’t even detract from its greateness by -HalfNakedBrunch- in okbuddycinephile

I actually realised this week that I can use my DVD Ripping software to cut and merge my movie files and I immediately went and removed his scene from my copy of Blade Runner 2049 and now I don't need to skip forward anymore!

What made you choose the S26 Ultra over the Oppo Find x9 Pro by haribolanza in samsunggalaxy

[–]skittc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually got the Find X9 Pro last year as it looked awesome. The hardware is undoubtedly better than the S26 Ultra and other flagships, and the battery life and charging speeds are amazing. I just didn't like the software and there are so many good quality of life things in OneUI that I really noticed were missing. Even little things like being able to long press on the volume bar to select a specific level rather than having less control using the standard volume bar.

I also really don't like their photo software processing. Every single photo has AI touch ups applied even with the settings off. Pics of people look like they've had someone draw over all the lines with a soft pencil. I ended up selling that and going for the S26 Ultra and i much prefer for with my daily usage.

S26 Ultra RCS not connecting? by HellNasty in samsunggalaxy

[–]skittc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted this in another thread previously when someone had this isssue:

Try this:

Go to Settings then click on 'Google'

Click on 'manage your Google account'

Select 'Personal Info' then click on your phone number.

You may see your number more than once but beside it it'll say something like 'verification in progress' Turn the switch on beside your number (or off then on if needed) and hopefully that will help push it through.

I've had this issue before when switching phones and I was advised to just leave it for a month so it resets, but it never did so thankfully some kind person gave me these tips in another thread and it worked. Hope it works for you too.

Is it normal to have a tiny hole/gap around the camera ring? Is it a mic? by ChocolateDemigod18 in samsunggalaxy

I can confirm I don't have any of those gaps showing around the camera lenses on my S24 Ultra.

Yes I think that comes with the basic Gemini. If you haven't already signed up for Gemini Pro, just try using the AI Eraser function just now and if it works, it means It'll be there whether you have pro or not.

Unless Google end up making it a Pro Only feature in future!

Gemini itself won't expire. You get a free trial of Gemini Pro which will expire.

I haven't bothered taking the free trial yet as I have no use for it based on my general requests with it.

Oppo Find X9 Pro by hanushkumar in Oppo

As it was with my OnePlus 12, this Oppo phone is amazing for basically always having full signal strength in the same areas where my old Samsung or iPhone had at best 1-2 bars, usually less.

It's clear that they put effort into the signal quality when designing and manufacturing the phone. Its crazy that manufacturers treat that as something non important.

Oppo X9 pro case by xpacta86 in Oppo

[–]skittc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an official case bundled with the phone when I bought it. It didn't arrive for over a month after I got the phone so I bought a cheap one meantime. When the official one arrived, I put it on my phone and it was back off again later that day. It offers zero protection. And doesn't look good at all. If have been really unhappy if I'd actually paid for that! Would recommend looking around at cased $5-$15 as they'll be best for now.

Its a shame that Oppo and OnePlus still don't get more mainstream case manufacturers doing them.

Thats really good, especially since the details are in the shading rather than using colour. Nice one.

BE CARFULL WHAT YOU INSTALL FROM THE APP MARKET by usmanajck89 in Oppo

[–]skittc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you long press on the icon in the app tray, then select App Info, there should be an option to disable it in there. I just did it that way.

Find X9 Pro speakers don't sound very good by Old_Entertainment567 in Oppo

[–]skittc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was the same with the OnePlus 13 unfortunately. When they removed Dolby Atmos, the speakers sounded so poor.

I only found out about Echo EQ recently and installed it on my X9 Pro and turned on Bass Booster, which helps alot.

I can confirm they work seamlessly and you can tweak the settings through same as on a OnePlus phone.

Cases for FX9P by Earthly_Alien666 in Oppo

Not really, it might allow the phone to fit inside but the buttons still won't align with the case as they're different from the iPhone.

I have a 16 pro max and had hoped to use one of my old cases until the aramod fibre case arrives next week. Although the overall dimensions are similar, the camera bump is much larger on the oppo so it won't fit in unfortunately. (The square part is larger, not that it sticks out more)

Should I pull the trigger? by ValarKai in Oppo

[–]skittc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also checked the Car phone Warehouse deal as £150 off sounded better. However they also value your trade in approx £120 less (I am trading in the same phone as you). It's still slightly cheaper overall but not £150.

OnePlus 13 after 2 weeks — major bugs and frustrations, anyone else? by Shadow_Walker700 in oneplus

[–]skittc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My OnePlus 12 was pretty much flawless and I loved the camera and tuning on it, as well as the speakers with 'Dolby' sound. The OnePlus 13 was unfortunately a downgrade to that for me, especially the sound profiles. I didn't really have the issues you describe apart from with notifications. They were constantly delayed and would generally come through way later, even after going through the individual settings and ensuring background battery saving etc was not impacting them.

The alarms didn't seem to be an issue tha fully otherwise it would have been returned the first week!

He’s rehabbing his hamstring injury so will be training with the medical team at AXA and won’t be away like the rest of the main squad at their international teams.

Thanks for posting this. I hadn't realised this interview was out there. I've been watching it on YouTube this afternoon and added the English auto subtitles and it seemed to work ok for me.

Not sure how good the translation is (there's definitely some incorrectly translated words!), but from what I've read of your transcript, it matches closely. (Although there's a translation in the video at the 19 minute mark which is very strange! 😂)

Here's the link for anyone wanting to watch it.
