Yeah that's what I had installed

My tenure of using an iPhone as my primary phone concludes this Tuesday. Went up and bought a OnePlus 5T and I'm looking forward to setting it up!

I'm guessing you didn't go for the 6/6T because of the notch? xD

At any case, welcome to te 5T club!! I'm at least using mine until the OP7 or the Pixel 4 releases.

Yeah, the notch was one thing that turned me down. :p However, price point on the 5T (under $500!), plus storage size and RAM were enough for me to settle on the 5T.

I'll be honest, the notch on my phone doesn't really bother me. I'm not constantly looking at it so it's not really bothering me. Besides, it's only using the space that's reserved for the notification bar, so it's not like there's anything important there to begin with.

I just think it's a boring design choice when every other phone in 2018 has a notch. It makes the phone itself feel... less unique.

Gotta say, only the OnePlus 6T so far did the notch right.

Yeah, the OnePlus 6T's looks to be the best one I've seen to date. However, that still does not change my opinion on the notch.

My iPhone 6s Plus is dead, lol. I was trying to repair it and poof came flames and smoke.

colours November 13th, 2018 1:11 AM

oof. RIP.

Still considering what other phone I would even want at this point. I might just wait until 2019 because I'm not a huge fan of the notch craze going on.

Even if I'm going to get used to it eventually, I'd much rather just not have the notch there tbh.

Tsutarja November 14th, 2018 2:04 AM

I agree, I want the notch gone too.

Speaking of which, I got a new phone as the birthday present from my parents. Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) looks good so far c:

I feel like I need a new phone by end of next year because my phone has issues charging (and it's not the charger because it works on other stuff), and I feel like it's going to end up going to the crapper soon. :\

I really thought you just got a OnePlus phone like a few months ago around when Zach did. #oops

Nah, I was late to that party.

I might actually go for the OP7 when that's a thing. Kinda curious to see what it'll be like.

i really feel that the whole notch thing is really just a gimmick for this year and it might not be a thing by next year.

.... Of course, that's just me either being optimistic and probably naive, but still.

Any ideas why my browser (Vivaldi) opens on start-up of my computer, even though it doesn't have an option for that in settings, and it's not listed in the list of programs that start on start up?

colours February 7th, 2019 7:28 AM

my Vivaldi doesn't really do that. o.o;

... but it's not on the list of startup apps on Windows 10, so that make sense why it wouldn't....

EC February 7th, 2019 8:45 AM

What's also bizarre about it is the fact that it loads with the pages I was last on before I turned the computer off, instead of the pages I have selected as my start pages.

If you are on Windows 10, and shut down or rebooted with Vivaldi open, it's programmed to open up any programs upon startup that you had open when shutting down. I'm not sure if there's a way to disable this, but thankfully Microsoft didn't fully get rid of their old shut down procedures.

If you hold down Alt+F4 on your desktop with all programs minimized, a window will come up to prompt you for shut down, sleep, restart, etc. Doing this method will close all of your programs.

I close Vivaldi fully before shutting down, and it doesn't do this with any other programs.

Hey folks, how's things? Hit a bit of a snag recently. I'm trying to save photos from my dad's iPhone 7 (front screen is a total write-off, but touch functions mostlyyyy still work), but it's been tricky. For one, when I copy photos onto my PC, half of them show up as 0 bytes in size, but they display fine on the phone. Any idea what's going on? I was speculating if this is a sign some files are corrupted maybe? 🤔 This is probably the first and last time I am going to be using an iPhone too, so 'free' solutions would be preferred! (I'm waryyyy of d/wing iTunes -- might put it on my old comp when I get the chance)

Also I can't believe Apple is really charging €1 per month for 50GB of cloud storage? It's gross how they advertise it in your face when your standard 5GB cloud is nearly full
