My OnePlus 1 running paranoid Android 6.0.1. let's share tips and tricks to save battery, I'm also not sure why the fuck WiFi was using so much battery, it says it was active for 11hrs

Hello, /g/. What is the best, cheap option for playing SACD's? I was doing some research and many people are saying that the Sony SCD-CE595 is the way to go. Is this true?
>>55331751
1. Buy a CD drive
2. Rip to FLAC
3. Convert to Opus
4. Listen on your phone
5. ????
6. Profit
>>55331773
Come back when you've got something relevant to the thread
if you can find a used 1st generation ps3 that actually can be a viable option as they had SACD support
these are the ps2 backward compatible ones

Hey faggots,
I am looking for a power bank. Not just any power bank though, I am looking for one that has a USB port with an output of ideally 15w+ and one that has a thinner profile so I could store it in a backpack
Will appreciate any help
>>55331727
Read the sticky, retard
>>55331764
Ok, fair enough. Lets prompt a discussion. Is it even possible to have a usb based power bank above like 12W? Also what is your favorite power bank. Personally I like the smaller ones as I typically only charge phones but I want to see if I can find one that can charge a laptop through just usb (and my 3ds).

Blu R1 HD or Moto G4 at reduced prices if you allow them to put ads on your lockscreen
Considering the low prices, and how hard/easy it would be to uninstall their shitware and root/unlock the phones for total freedom
>>55331684
>total freedom
>mobile phone
Pick one
>>55331705
Well yeah, but you know what I mean. At least get rid of the adware and shitware they put on the phone.
I believe that if it can be done you'll end up with a decently powered phone at a good price
>>55331684
if it has an unlocked bootloader there's pretty much no reason for someone tech-competent to spend the extra $50 when they could either flash a clone of the stock moto g rom or an entirely new one
I have a 1080P super small TV and a monitor that supports 1080p but its not with HDMI, it's with a thunderbolt to VCA converter.
I wanna just get a monitor that has HDMI instead, so I can play my games and use it for my computer
Should I buy this for my Nintendo Wii?

Does this kind of thing cause lag? I am really into Melee and hate any lag but I tolerate the very small amount of lag that I currently have on my (obviously) not CRT. Will this bump up the lag considerably?

Is this scenario possible? A home network that relies on a mobile hotspot for its internet access.
Obviously it's not ideal, but in the countryside the choice for internet is between: 4G mobile hotspot, satellite, and dial-up.

>>55331207
Yeah, my 4g is my main ISP. I pay $65 after tax for true unlim 4g from simple mobile. I don't notice any speed difference after 23 gb softcap. I just pirated the easy tether pro program and tether it to my custom rasbpi router. I suppose you could also tether it to a computer then bridge it to the ethernet port or something.

So it's cheaper than any other mid range GPU.
Has better performance than any other mid range GPU.
Is more power efficient than other other mid range GPU.
Is VR ready.
So I guess the hundreds of anti-amd nvidia shill threads the last week were for nothing?
Topkek
I seriously wonder how much they are being paid
>So it's cheaper than any other mid range GPU.
In some places. Currently it's $320 online in the US since scalpers and early birds have bought out all the reference cards, who knows how much in Europoor Monopoly money and gook coins but it's always absurd over there.
>Has better performance than any other mid range GPU.
Trades blows depending on the application.

Whoops, I guess I forgot this one. GTX 970 is more power efficient thanks to the RX 480 consistently performing almost 25W out of spec under load.
We have a lot of old smartphones in my house. What can I do with them?
I have an Arduino Uno 3. I was planning on buying a raspberry pi 2 to connect it and a sensor kit to mess around with.
Someone once said to me the RBP2 was a phone with a screen. If that is true, can I use these old cell phones instead of buying raspberry pi 2s?
How would i be able to interface withe phones, or do I need to rip them out of their case and screens. Is there a tutorial?
Is there another use to old cell phones?
>>55330947
RBP2 was a phone *wthout* a screen.
>>55330947
Did you try turning it off and back on again?
>>55330947
I mean, rpi and arduinio are designed to fuck around with. GPIO pins, ethernet and USB and power connectors, endless online tutorials.
Old android phones are designed for consumer electronics. No GPIO, no custom software support normally, no ethernet or power cord, USB is a bitch, etc.
I don't what you think you'll accomplish using an old phone as a rpi. Just because they both have ARM doesn't mean that they're interchangeable
I'm a complete noob when it comes to phones but there's something puzzling me about the one I just got hold of. On the network icon it always shows H or H+. As far as I know my phone supports 4G and LTE so is my provider just dicking me off?
>>55330897
why not just speed test it ?
www.speedtest.net
and then actually google your stuff so i dont have to.
>>55330897
Have you set it to 4G and are you in an area with 4G/LTE connection? Is 4G part of your plan/whatever?
Also, yeah, speed test it.
>>55331157
Yeah I have speedtested it, also have another phone to compare to. There was about half mbps difference but the speed was what it is supposed to be. It's dogshit slow in the day time though. When I try the other phone with the same sim it shows 4G. I'm a bit confused about the differences between them all though, could my phone support LTE but not 4G and LTE is just not in my area/plan? It is currently set to auto but only ever shows H+.
Recently, I got a new phone (Galaxy Amp Prime). Since getting it, I've been looking for a way to root it. As far as I know, there is no way to root it. Anyone know some way?
>>55330884
>not getting a flagship
>expecting root, much less custom rom or recovery
Shouldve saved your money a little bit more and get a flagship. Enjoy your bloated sluggish touchwiz
Best mod phone galaxy s3 user here
>>55330884
A used flagship is a better way to go. Galaxy S3s are cheaper than dirt and have a lot of roms.
Any Nexus is a better option than the Galaxy Amp Prime.
>>55330884
Well you've bought the phone so you're already fucked I guess. Either take that Samsung dildo up your ass, bloatware and all, or try Kingroot. Google it. If all goes well you'll download the apk and have root in under 5 minutes.

That's why I use a tiling window manager

maybe if you didnt have stupidly oversized monitors for your desk it wouldnt be such a task
