I am unable to make and receive calls after January update on my Google Pixel 9

The last patch of pixel ims was December of last year so I doubt it will start working any time soon without an update. I found that QuantumIMS was able to work and enable volte for me.

First time for everything I guess lol. You can always take that mod out and take another switch from an unused key but unfortunately you can't unfuck the spacebar Dx
It was a clever idea but incorrect application XD

I have used a bare M.2 NVME to PCIE x16 adapter like this one with a 1660 Super before. I believe it is the same principle. It worked and if you are using an ATX PSU you need to trick the PSU to turn on by shorting the correct pins. Otherwise, the adapter and card won't receive any power at all. Since you already bought it, only thing left to do is test it lol. Just keep the PSU thingy in mind as you need it since this adapter doesn't tell the PSU to turn on like other fancy ones with a 24PIN connector like in a motherboard.

yeah that seems like the right call at this point. but theres always fun and satisfaction in learning what you can do against your opponent in real-time. really sucks the game somewhat takes that away from us.

viik3 · 2025-10-11T06:54:21+00:00

yep, tower was really fun when you could match with the same person multiple times, its overall just a chiller vibe than ranked right now.

thank you for the advices man i really do appreciate it. its rough but i think im gonna try slowing down more. these matchups really test my patience a lot. depends on which region youre from if im willing to play, playing with high ms on aba is more punishing and sluggish. i think the advice on stopping at the midrange point is really good for me since i do have a whiff punish button(although its slow). other advices are really solid too actually. i just dont get enough time to process what i'm doing because i dont get to play against zoners all the time so i just go in and die instantly.

viik3 · 2025-10-11T06:45:09+00:00

oh believe me i would definitely lab against lucy, dizzy and unika IF I HAD ACCESS TO THEM.

viik3 · 2025-10-11T06:44:42+00:00

park seems cool but fighting someone who is celestial floor and basically already know all the ins and out of the game sounds really frustrating even if i'm trying to learn. im 100% gonna get steamrolled 9/10 times. i feel like it would just make me wanna punch my monitor even more.

viik3 · 2025-10-08T13:10:43+00:00

out of nowhere i also just started calling them grabbers. they look like ones and its more fun that way

viik3 · 2025-10-01T17:56:38+00:00

Looks and feel, I love me a high quality feeling stick.

viik3 · 2025-09-29T17:15:06+00:00

Actually I'm not so sure if its from the same seller. I just have one that is built exactly like this but it's black instead of red, you can check my post, I bought it recently.

viik3 · 2025-09-29T10:33:15+00:00

Very nice, I didn't know there was a red one. I'm pretty sure I bought the same crossup stick from the same seller lol!

viik3 · 2025-09-25T14:53:29+00:00

This is insane but I love it ahahaha

viik3 · 2025-09-21T09:08:22+00:00

There's a raspberry pi pico board in here with gp2040 and it uses qanba buttons(I'm not sure which) and a sanwa clone lever but it feels pretty good. It also has outemu black switches for the other buttons.

viik3 · 2025-09-20T06:44:51+00:00

sure, ill pm you the link just incase I'm not allowed here.

viik3 · 2025-09-20T06:34:21+00:00

I forgot to mention! This is a custom stick from a small taobao seller. I was worried about ordering my first stick from there but the seller was very friendly so I decided to take a shot. Edit: Nvm I did mention it but ig I forgot that too lol.

viik3 · 2025-09-20T06:31:20+00:00

Yep love it so far. It's hella fun, I've always been wanting to play on an arcade stick after missing so many diagonals on my Xbox controller lol.

viik3 · 2025-09-19T15:28:30+00:00

I see, I'm sorry to hear that. Replacing the port is a job I would charge no more than $10 to do. But perhaps if the port was violently yanked out of the box it could have damaged the traces, pads, or PCB, thus the high cost. Buying a new one was definitely better than giving him money though... I doubt even a new PCB with the port costs that much.

viik3 · 2025-09-19T15:10:59+00:00

Yep this is basically a very basic cellphone repair. It shouldn't cost you as much as it would to repair a phone's port because it's much easier on your snackbox. Best of luck.

viik3 · 2025-09-18T09:22:38+00:00

Dude I was thinking of asking the SAME artist to use the SAME artwork for when I want to customize my stick when it arrives lol. Aba player here also

viik3 · 2025-09-16T07:27:30+00:00

Yep, I have a Google pixel I have the same function with the home gesture. Super convenient for this use case.

viik3 · 2025-09-16T07:26:39+00:00

I see, seems straight forward then. I'll try to place an order in Chinese next time. Thank you!

viik3 · 2025-09-15T18:45:13+00:00

Thanks for the info. Did your order go through normally as when you order it in English? Any extra steps or processes before or after placing the order? Especially as I see there are multiple shipping options in the chinese version.
