I got a Xiaomi note 5 on Saturday. It is very good, great battery. Set up was so easy, I just held it next to my old phone and it cloned it! |

I took the opportunity to not put all the same crap on this phone, but it's more moving shit around, changing settings the way I like it, setting up the android wear watch again etc... It's definitely better than it used to be as every app seemed to know me already, but you still have to open every app to give it permissions and the like. |

Is there a way I can change the default volume controller? The one on the phone doesn't have separate media and ringtone(!) and the do not disturb doesn't work properly. |

The oneplus 6 is lovely, having had it for a day now. I do have one issue though... ... how am I supposed to keep hold of it? It's remarkably slippy. I've had to order a screen protector for the back glass, to see if that gives me a bit more purchase. |

I recently got a Koolnee K1. What a phone !. There are a few small issues with Android, but for the cash it was awesome. Oh and I use a case, given the whole phone is glass. It's also rather large, so needs protection if you lob it in a rucksack for example. |

The vinyl wrap/screen protector for the back of the phone was absolute shite. Might have been ok if phones were still flat surfaces, but all the curved edges and shit these days makes it feel shite in the hand when you hold it, as the vinyl doesn't sit very well on the corners and edges. I've resorted to using the free clear plastic case that came with the phone, like some kind of gumbi-handed peasant. What's wrong with a textured back on a phone? Surely being able to hold onto a phone is a key design criteria? In other news, the facial recognition unlock is voodoo. I turned it off on the Note 3, as it took bloody ages to respond. On this thing I spent a few minutes trying to work out why my phone didn't lock and what was broken, but realised the face unlock was working so fast, that it just seemed like the phone wasn't locked when I picked it up. I was impressed. I'm off to go find a nice case to use, spend a load of money on it, then realise after I get it that the free case is the best after all, and switch back to that. |

I already have a bath and covered pipes and tiles but the taps are shite, the bath is too small, and whoever did the silicone sealant stuff around the bath/shower was an idiot.

I did something with Mrs Hearthly's contract renewal after all. Not even sure why, to be honest. New shinies innit. Five fucking authenticators to migrate over. I'll have a play about with it later on. (Currently I'm still using my S7.) It's pretty bastard big though and the camera sticks out of the back. Probably full of Chinese hackers and spyware. Also USB-C, no wireless charging, and no headphone jack. Attachment: Screenshot 2018-09-06 at 13.46.33.png
