Did the guy with the RayBans ordered through WhatsApp return?
Also, anyone else having the 'missing calls while in standby mode' bug on their RN3Pro?
Parker Sanders
>bug on their RN3Pro? next time buy a Samsung
Nathan Perry
>Samsung not a chance
Hunter Reyes
I don't get called or texted at all so I can't respond to that ;_;
Kayden Robinson
The news which have been the same for like 3 threads now.
Ryan Long
chinkman arduino seems to work fine with the official software winblows seemed to install all necessary drivers by itself, decent buy for ~$5
Ryder Carter
You get directly an sms that you've just missed a call, there's a fix but then you get 50% of your battery life. It seems that just a handful of us have this problem.
GAYBEAST told me to do a factory reset.
Dylan Brown
Post it into the MIUI forums, the Pajeets over there will help you
Caleb Bennett
already did, there are a lot of threads and apparently the pajeet developers are working on a fix, but with the last couple of OTAs didn't fix shit.
I've heard that this bug is there even on AOSP
Daniel Anderson
Any place to get cheap and playable guitar strings?
Camden Cook
Got mine from gearbest too. Did you flash the ROM to the global version? Gearbest put on a weird version of MiUI on mine
Blake Foster
Got one of those cheap lapel mics today. Voice quality is so so. Heaps of distortion when amping it up even a little. This is labelled as 'base' volume on my xfce volume manager: vocaroo.com/i/s0xd8s5XrgCJ
Brayden Wood
mine came with a funny version like 7.1.99.99 = non existent. I flashed iirc 7.1.8.0, got an OTA week later, and another to 7.2.5.0 couple of days ago. which version do you have ?
i might try xiaomi.eu's rom these days
Alexander Ward
Xiaomi.eu roms are good, can confirm. They have a few fixes and generally felt a bit more stable. There are pre rooted ones in MIUI and XDA forums too.
Ryder Carter
Yeah you seem to be on the right version. Haven't updated mine yet
Mason Campbell
I still haven't rooted mine, just want the incoming calls to funcion
Brody Evans
Hmm yeah their changelog seems to show a fix to the problem you're having so I guess they're probably aware of the problem
Carson Robinson
shoooo shooooo
Henry Hernandez
yupe, that gave me hope.
they might be under a lot of stress before the event tomorrow
Asher Baker
aaaand btw, the nilkin frostedshit case is pretty nice, the back is matt and rubbery.
Oliver Allen
OP of last thread here, it did get updated. I'll update it again next thread.
They're decent toys but last minutes and are very unstable in flight, as with all small quadcopters
Carter Foster
Get the JJRC H22 instead. It was posted some threads earlier, same price on Gearbest and has good reviews. Get some extra props and maybe extra batteries and you're golden.
Brayden Davis
Strings aren't that expensive as it is. I'd just stick to name brands.
Asher Lopez
Recommendations for a cheap but ok box cutter familia?
Julian White
...
Colton Wood
Looks good.
Jeremiah Campbell
yeah, thx, and finally i'll sort through the charger/adapter mess I have underneath
Kayden Stewart
You might want to delete your number...
Lincoln Price
It's not my number :^)
Carter Baker
Same here. It's some bootleg custom miui rom when I got it. I applied for unlock and flashed AOSP. No need for any of those chink spyware crap that uses up your data.
If you want just a traditional box cutter / x-acto knife I can't help you besides saying that there's some on ali.
Carter Lopez
TFW a phone is so chink that pajeets ignore it and the only roms are from russians
Alexander Wright
which phone is that?
Julian Turner
Probably an oukitel
Connor Martin
Thanks user, first knife looks really nice.
Luis Parker
What differentiates it? Any better looking but similar quality you can recommend?
Owen Turner
sounds more like you're breathing on it than actual distortion
John Peterson
I had it on a low input volume that time. If I made it higher I could hear crackling. But I think my technique isn't that good for sure.
Samuel Jenkins
Hey, having a small LAN with some mates, looking for a cheap ethernet switch to use, looking for the cheapest shit to use, anyone got any suggestions?
John Martin
If your LAN is soon just buy a second hand one near your and don't roll the dice with shipping
Jace Powell
I live in a rural Australian country town, shipping is the same to Perth though.
LAN is like in a month.
Charles Carter
Gearbest sent me a tracking number but it doesn't work. Should I wait?
Adam Thomas
Pretty sure chink post offices allow people to generate tracking numbers online and slap them on a package to make it quicker. Basically just wait, get worried in a week.
New to this thing though so can someone correct me if I'm wrong?
Caleb Peterson
It's fine, just wait a while.
Christopher Watson
Sometimes it's just less infuriating to not check and think you've got a parcel coming at some point, so yeah just wait like he said before it gets in their system
Isaac Cox
Any europoors ever buy anything from GearBest's EU warehouse? Trying to avoid customs like the plague, but I really want a RN3P.
Jacob Baker
The fuck is up with gearbest. I ordered something on friday when it said 4 pieces left in stock, so I expected it to get send this afternoon. But today it still says 4 pieces left in stock and "dispatch: ships between may 27 - june 5th". Should I be worried?
rn3pro and a chuwi ilife v5pro, no customs from EU warehouse
Jayden Wilson
>snapdragon 410 1ghz no
Charles Ramirez
Is there a reputable seller for the RN3Pro in the UK? I know I can get it from gearbest or ebay but I'd rather not wait 3 weeks with GB or get fucked over via ebay
Ayden Williams
Ali has them, got one a week ago shipped from an EU warehouse so no customs.
Caleb Ross
Me too, phone. Me too.
Thomas Mitchell
If that's your budget, get an oukitel k4000 pro instead for 90usd, or get a redmi 3 for 130 usd.
The black one has a super cool awesome rad flame and black finish that'll fade as soon as you scrape it against something harsher than your skin. Stainless one is a great knife.
Levi Foster
ctrl+v on the quick reply form :^)
Jayden Gonzalez
Apart from every program that runs on GNU+Linux.
Nathaniel Ramirez
Just wait, it'll probably get sent today or tomorrow. If not then contact support and they'll give you a more accurate estimate.
Thomas Harris
And how fun is that gonna be with a tablet/phone. To get anything to work in Linux you need to type 288506348x commands in the terminal, yippee have gun with that on a touch device.
Jack Carter
It better. I'm willing to take a risk on the vernee since it's pretty cheap and I'm not a power user at all, but if I seriosuly have to wait until next month for them to send it, then wait another month for it to get here, I might as well shell out an extra 50 euro and get a redmi by the end of the month.
Noah Cooper
Thanks, I'll order from them then.
Angel White
>dude so many commands gtfo my Sup Forums with your nonsense
Eli Sanders
Best 5.5-6" smart phones? Few requirements 1080P screen minimum 4000 mah+ battery Marshmallow
It'll be used in Australia
Jonathan Gutierrez
sudo apt-get install my-faggot-program is one command. This is Ubuntu, not Arch.
The more valid objection is that the GUIs for 99% of programs are going to suck ass until they are redesigned for touch, and 99% of that 99% won't ever bother redesigning their interface
Gabriel Sullivan
I bought it, the battery died after 2 days. Gaybeast told me to send it back to china if I want my money back. cunts desu
Kayden Anderson
guys post some chink memes/artwork to put on my ONE DOLLAH mousepad

Luke Fisher
Need help with ordering a cx-20. They are 200 near me in chicago suburbs but not the open source. And I will want to get this thing on a computer controlled patrol eventually.
Also what should I be looking at for the gimbal? People recommended the xiaomi yi camera. There there some gimbal out there Ill be able to control remotely after figuring everything out? Im looking to make small videos for local family business. And would like to eventually get the thing to follow a path for some shots. The coding wont be a problem.
Also been looking at youtube and all the little upgrades that can be done including getting the phantom parts like blades and blade guards.

Thomas Green
I plan on installing OpenSSH server for the scripting, then just having launchers for scripts. Might try some remote desktop servers as well.
William Murphy
Where do you guys buy your xiameme phones on ali? The search bar shows me exactly 0 xiamo smartphones being sold, which can't be right.
Carson Diaz
Which one user?
Luke Wilson
And more delays for my Wintel Pro CX-W8 package, now it's sorted on wrong side of Finland
At least it didn't stop at customs.
Thomas Cruz
Can I expect something on banggood to not be a scam? How is shipping to the us we arent getting taxed yet are we?
Liam Anderson
I've ordered piston 3s from them and it's been fine, no we aren't.
Jace Harris
I have a similar setup but no controllable gimbal, its great.
Josiah Powell
Which 2 in 1 Device/Tablets you guys fell to advise?
Jayden Johnson
Nah, I find it way better than GB
Justin Watson
how do you go about installing google play on a vernee thor?
Nolan Carter
Did you already get yours? How are your first impressions?
Brody Baker
smells like ass :(
Jayden Campbell
cuz its a shit phone lolol
Landon Rodriguez
Should have bought an oukitel 2bh
Isaiah Diaz
no just wondering how to install it before i buy it as i don't want to be left with getting applications from APKmirror.
Nathaniel Ward
Does anyone have experience buying garmin or similar cycling computers from china?
Adrian Cooper
Thinking about this. $7. My tower is under my desk so USB 3.0 is a pain to access and I have my backups done automatically when I connect my USB 3.0 external HDD so the switches could make that whole process a lot easier.
