    Windows 10 1803 “Isn’t Ready for Prime Time”

    From what I've gathered, a combination of both (the 1803 update really messed up registry permissions for a lot of people). I was more getting at that some of the more stable (and most popular) applications have started having issues. Even their own applications were having problems... Issues...

    Windows 10 1803 “Isn’t Ready for Prime Time”

    My Chrome is still jacked even after the update to "fix" Chrome-freezing issues that came from 1803. Only way I can use Chrome is by turning off 'Direct Composition' ( '--disable-direct-composition' in target field of shortcut for those needing it) If I don't use that, watching just a few quick...

    Destiny 2

    Looks like Bungie is flying out the big streamers, YouTubers, and 'stats guys' to help improve the game with feedback and playtesting much like what Massive did with 'The Division.' This gives me some hope for this game as Massive made huge improvements and in short time from these "sessions"...

    Dell H625 Color Laser AIO $175, your inbox may have -30/100 or -50/200 today

    Received mine today also (ordered on 3/12). I was downstairs working and the dog started acting up so I went upstairs and the FedEx driver already left it at my door. He was driving just a standard FedEx truck (not a freight truck). I received the similar email stating that I will need to take...

    Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+

    Looks like we may want to wait to see if the retail units are any different/better (in we are talking the Exynos version). From the AnandTech article: Doubtful of major improvements, but it wouldn't surprise me the issues are purely firmware related, or a good portion atleast.

    Circuit City to Relaunch Feb. 15

    This is what I use to do until BB finally started matching Amazon prices (if sold/shipped by Amazon). I have noticed my Amazon shopping has decreased quite a bit in terms of electronics when Best Buy finally go their collective heads out their behinds in terms of price matching. There are a few...

    WiFi Enabled Light Bulbs and other household stuff

    My only issue with LIFX bulbs is that they essentially require an internet connection to fully function (in terms of brightness adjustments, color, etc; they can still be turn on/off via wall switch) since they are cloud based. I originally had LIFX bulbs but switched to Philips Hue bulbs due to...

    Why so excited for the iPhone X ? It's the same old thing running boring iOS

    Have a Caudabe Lucid Clear and also a Caudabe Sheath. The clear looks great but is pretty slippery. The Caudabe Sheath is still my go-to iPhone case (had it on other iPhones) as it is very thin with what I've seen and experienced as great drop protection along with a big upgrade in grip. I will...

    iPhone 7

    My first one's hiss could be heard from around 10 inches away if I was playing a game. I could also hear it in phone calls. I could hear it very faintly just using browsing on Safari. And much like everyone else having this issue, you could definitely hear it when recording video This new one I...

    iPhone 7

    Had my 7+ for a few weeks now and pretty much love it. I was an Android user for about 5-6 years and finally switched (work provided the upgrade). The only downside is my 1st phone had pretty loud hissing/coil whine under load and basically when using any application. I got it exchanged...

    iPhone 7

    The 7 and 7+ are trickling into people in our department and every one that I have seen has a yellow'ish tint to it when comparing it to old iphones. I am trying to get the phone held up to our of our studio calibrated displays to see what the phone's "white" looks like in comparison. I have a...

    iPhone 7

    The screen itself is closer to 6500k-6800k rather than 7200k (iphone 6s/6s+), so will appear warmer in general if you're comparing. If it really bothers you, you can adjust the color hue (Yellow Screen on iPhone 7? Here’s the Fix!) and "fix" it. Supposedly this could also be a software issue...

    Sorry, Fiber Cloth for the Jet Black is a $25 accessory at the Apple Store... In all seriousness, I am an Android fan but I cannot wait to get my iPhone 7+ in at the end of the month (was not able to preorder on launch day, so my delivery date is end of the month). I may hit up a Verizon store...

    HTC 10

    This phone just keeps getting better and better through updates (and ROM updates). They have basically fixed all the issues with the camera. No more lens flare (due to smudges on camera lens), the low-light is greatly improved, and it focuses blisteringly fast now. Basically the perfect phone

    HTC 10

    This was a known issue with the last update (documented on their XDA thread). Their brand-new full-rom 1.4 should have it fixed. LeeDroid and ViperTeam make updates constantly it seems, I am very impressed. I switched to LeeDroid yesterday, but getting same battery-life as Viper, so may switch...

    HTC 10

    Basically, there is a reason that there is not a separate T-Mobile HTC 10 forum on XDA (there is one for Verizon and Sprint since they lock their crap down) since it is basically the unlocked variant.

    HTC 10

    Thought the t-mobile HTC 10 was basically the equivalent to the Unlocked version (t-mobile doesn't lock anything down). If you can unlock the bootloader, you should be able to fastboot the TWRP recovery (in download mode: 'fastboot flash recovery twrp-file-path-here'). You MUST be on TWRP...

    HTC 10

    The only one I am seeing getting good reviews is the Verizon Wireless one you can get in store/online. It doesn't cover the whole screen, but people say it is the only one that not only doesn't give a halo, but one that really sticks to the screen well (someone said you're likely to break the...

    HTC 10

    I'm on Viper now but thinking of switching to LeeDroid. I like Viper, but it is like they are getting rid of bloat and then adding 20x more bloat of there own (in terms of customization, but getting excessive with some of them). Seems people are getting the best battery life with LeeDroid right...

    S7 edge or HTC 10

    HTC 10 all the way. Great dev support already (easy to root and unlock bootloader for the numerous ROMS/kernels already available). S7 is likely to never get an unlocked bootloader due to Qualcomm's secure-boot function that all US carriers are using. Perm root will also be tough to accomplish...

    Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge

    Just wait until the Dev community really kicks into gear for this phone. Once root is achieved, aggressive doze can be used. Battery draining services (that are not actively being used) can be disabled. Uninstalling a lot of bloat. I expect around 9hr SoT once root is achieved being the norm...

    Cancelled my 6P Graphite and ordered an Aluminum at the wee-hours this morning. Shipped 2 hours ago... If you want the phone soon, get the aluminum in other words. Won't show fingerprints or scratches as easily too (but that's what a case is for)

    Nexus M ( 2015 ) Smartphone

    Can't say he did the same test to the iPhone 6S. He used a razorblade and sandpaper, never used a glass cutter/picks. The overall components are a lot different also (AMOLED being full plastic compared to a standard LCD; neither will ever be subjected to flame). He also conveniently has never...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    So... I was using the new Prime95 that looks to be eating Haswell processors alive (according to a lot of places online). I switched to the Prime95 26.6 version that everyone says to run and I am at a cool & crisp 55-60 degrees Celsius.

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    What are some of the best CPU air coolers for a 4790k that I can replace my Corsair h100i with? I think I am just going to give up on trying to use the h100i as I cannot get great load temps. Which begs the question still, what are people getting temp-wise on a 4690k or 4790k using an air cooler...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    I have a PSU for my current PC but that would be a major PITA trying to disconnect it to test. I will try the jumper method and connect a basic fan first, then if it works, I'll have to man-up and dissemble my current PC to test the ASUS motherboard (and be frustrated doing it).
