    Using my S9+ wireless with LogMeIn

    I am trying to replace my laptop with my S9+ (extra keyboard and ouse) to connect to our corporate windows servers using LogMeIn. Sometimes the display will just go; parts of the screen are like disintegrating progressively as if the resolution was getting worse. I wonder if there are...

    New Google Chromecast 4K, why no LIVE tab?

    I bought it from Google Canada. I expected it to have a tv schedule-like grid. I don't have the LIVE tab as this one. I installed a VPN, switched to servers from USA, no change. Could it be that the Canadian Google Chromecasts with TV don't have them?

    Chromecast hell

    I put it aside for 3 weeks, it took a few reset trials with the button and it finally went through and it is detected by my phone. I think that the firmware update crashed initially - it just froze for a like 45m.

    Chromecast hell

    I just got 2 new google chromecast 4k. Now I am stuck. On the screen, it only asks a password after I chose my network but offers no keyboard!!!! Initially google home on my phone saw it and asked for a QR. Now home can't even detect it. I tried to push and hold the button on the device...

    I actually miss this; I had it on my S10, and it felt just a bit more premium. But true, the screen was more exposed to damage.

    Finally convinced our IT to get me a Samsung S23! I don't need/ want an Ultra as I like them compact. The P7 dropping the signal on a daily basis really got on my nerves. For the record, I found in what context it happens, maybe this will help someone, although if it doesn't solve the issue...

    Google One Back-up

    I backed-up my old phone in the gdrive. I installed Google One on my tablet. I see the back-up I did 5 days ago. There is no Restore option whatsoever. I ckecked in the Settings and found nothing to help. This app is so frustrating...

    How to tell if it is a clone or not

    I see a lot of offers on Marketplace of affordable S23+ or even Ultra. Here, a S23 Ultra will command almost CA$2000 with the taxes. No thanks. But some of them are around CA$800, no tax. Here is an example (as a 512Gb version , would be CA$2175 with taxes)...

    Well I respectfully disagree. Then why don't we just throw away all devices working with wifi 2.4GHz since 5.0GHz is the better thing? My trusty Laserjet printer of 2003 works with whatever USB I plug it in (lucky to have Windows 10 driver)... this example is a stretch, but when bringing...

    My Pixel 7 works hard to make me hate it even more. In Europe for 2 weeks, I thought that I was covered with my faithful 10000 mah battery pack that worked with a dozen devices, never missed a beat. I found the hard way that *NOPE*, not with this princess phone that has special charging...
