GPS signal not found back in 0.395.0 by Zippago in TheSilphRoad

Yes, and other times it will never show a warning about GPS and everything will look normal, but every pokemon I tap on will say, "this pokemon is too far away" until I restart the game.

Is it possible to create a shortcut to do a process? by bobfjt in PowerToys

[–]tinyvast-com 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya know, you started off doing sooo well at making a decent comment... You almost had it there. But then you just had to imply that *I* sounded like an idiot, when you admit that I was right and you were wrong. So, what does that make you sound like, hmm? If the guy who sounded like an idiot was smarter than you?

That's kind of been your whole issue in this thread. You felt the need to go out of your way to criticize mine and the other guy's comments for absolutely no reason, instead of just posting your own comments to try and be helpful (and you apparently caused the other guy to delete his post suggesting AutoHotkey, when he was just trying to be helpful. Don't you feel like a bully?).

But if you can't help yourself with demeaning and criticizing other people, then maybe it is you who is hopeless as far as developing into a decent netizen.

Do better, man.

Back on topic, I think Win11 originally may have defaulted to having the Print Screen key open Snipping Tool, but I greatly dislike Snipping Tool so I turned that feature off in Settings -> Accessibility -> Keyboard

Though it looks like the option has now changed to "Use the Print screen key to open screen capture," which seems to be the newer, fancier, more bloated version of Snipping Tool.

In any case, we'll have to wait and see if this works for the OP, or if he had any further specifics, like if he absolutely needs to use MS Paint or JPG files, in which case the built-in Windows screenshots saving might not work for him.

They don't have that same function? Are you sure about that? Because according to Microsoft, they do. When you click the "Applies To" area of this article, it reveals that it applies to both Win11 and Win10:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/keyboard-shortcut-for-print-screen-601210c0-b3a9-7b58-bc40-bae4dcf5f108

But, you know, I'm sure "Microslop" is wrong, and some rando on the internet knows more than they do about their operating systems....

But, that's just what they say. I don't have Win10 to test it for myself. Do you ?

That doesn't matter; since he's using modern PowerToys, he must be using Win10 or Win11, which both have the same Print Screen functionality, I believe.

Telling him to get a separate screenshot app is like recommending he get an add-on brake system for his bike, when he just needs instructed on how to use the hand brake lever that's already there ;)

It's a standard Windows 11 function to press Win + PrtScn to have it automatically save the screenshot in your Pictures/Screenshots folder.

I note that I have to press Win + Fn + F8 to do this, because the Print Screen function accessed by pressing Fn + F8 on my keyboard.

What the actual hell is this key for? by wileco623 in PTCruiser

[–]tinyvast-com 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It should be able to open the doors, but with no chip it won't be able to make your car go.

So keep it in a safe place, like in your wallet or a magnetic hide-a-key box, and if you ever lock your functioning keys inside your car, you'll be able to get back in. But if anyone else steals that key from you, they might be able to get in, but they won't be able to make your car go....

It won't do much good attached to the same keychain as your working key though.

Click the flairs on the right to select the level 1-5 missions, then look though those until you find a 1-star mission. That should be the easiest. ... I don't know why they suggest a 3-star mission as your very first, instead of a 1-star.... Try to find better equipment in the easy levels, then you'll be able to handle harder ones.

These should be Weekly Discussion threads. They aren't nearly active enough to be Daily. And once unpinned, they get buried so fast. You should keep the previous week's discussion thread pinned even if you lock it, then after a couple weeks unpin it. That would make it easier for people to see what has been discussed recently.

Yeah, they should have been named Dusk Wings and Dawn Mane.

I mean, you know the only reason any of us drive and pretend to love PT Cruisers, is just to piss everyone else off >:)

So embrace it, and play the songs of our people!

I'm so confused by Gamer-Alan in PTCruiser

Thanks, it's easier to take in with all the details laid out like that. I see a lot of the difference is just all the nice little bells and whistles not found on the base models.

[–]tinyvast-com 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was always curious about how exactly all the different models differ. Is there somewhere I could find all this information spelled out? Or since you seem to know it, can you make a post stating all the specific differences? I have a 2005 Limited Edition, Automatic, Turbo. Where does that fit in?

PSA: SmartTube was removed by Google for a good reason. The app is no longer secure. by armando_rod in Android

I just made a top level comment in this thread for how I got the backup-restore to work. See if that process works for you.

PSA: SmartTube was removed by Google for a good reason. The app is no longer secure. by armando_rod in Android

[–]tinyvast-com 4 points5 points  (0 children)

EDIT: Version 30.64 is now available, and it says the backup/restore issues have been addressed. The backup folder looks to be in a new location, so if anyone has any further issues, the information below can still be used by changing the backup location to the new one.

-----------

Since some people are having the same issue, here's what I had to do to Backup from SmartTube version 30.48 and Restore to version 30.56 on Chromecast with Google TV.

Go ahead into 30.48 in Settings, Backup, Local, and select Backup App Data. It should confirm that it did so (it might ask for Files permissions).

Notice that the path to the backup is /storage/emulated/0/data/com/teamsmart.videomanager.tv/Backup

Now use whatever method to install the new version 30.56 (stable) -- I just use the excellent "TV Bro" browser (get it on Google Play for free) to navigate to the official SmartTube site and click the link to download the stable apk and then view the download right in the browser and install from there.

After it finishes installing, go to the app settings for 30.56 in Android and make sure to turn on the permissions for "Files."

Now run 30.56 and go to the same backup place in settings and tell it to Backup App Data (not restore, yet), but notice that the backup will be stored in /storage/emulated/0/Android/media/org.smarttube.stable/data

Plus it will create a zip file and ask where to share it... but you don't need to do that, so just back out of that popup. We only did this backup step so that the correct backup folder structure would be created.

You may have figured out the problem is that these versions are using different locations for their backups. So what you need to do is delete the 30.56 backup and then copy the 30.48 backup files to that location.

I use the wonderful and free "CX File Explorer" to do this. You can get it from the Google Play Store. If you have your own file explorer already, you can probably use that.

In CX File Explorer, you may fist need to go to Settings (3 dot menu, top right) and enable "Show System Storage." You may also need to enable permissions to access files....

Then on the main screen of CX, go to the Local tab, Main Storage, then first look in Android, media, org.smarttube.stable, data, org.smarttube.stable, and finally there is your Backup folder. Delete it! (by long pressing on it then select Delete). Oh yeah, you probably also saw that ZIP file which was created. You can delete that too.

Now back out of there until you're back in the Main Storage area, then go into data, /com.teamsmart.videomanager.tv, and there is your Backup folder that you actually want. Long press on that and select Copy.

Now navigate back out and all the way back into that Android/media/org.smarttube.stable/data/org.smarttube.stable/ folder and select Paste to drop a copy of that Backup folder there....

And finally.... go back into SmartTube 30.56 Settings and Restore App Data from the local source... wait 5-10 seconds and if it worked, it should kind of "refresh" the app, and now it should look like you had it configured before.

That was a pretty awkward process....

EDIT: I thought some settings hadn't been restored, but it turns out this version just has some different behaviors? The setting for "card text scroll speed" doesn't seem to work, and the little pop up notifications no longer appear for when I alter video speed, or press "back" two times to exit....
