• Pixel 7 fills the gap, barely

    I like my Pixel 7. I just really miss my Duo 2 and can’t wrap my head around not having still. It’s a waiting game to see if I can get another and one issue is clear that make having the Pixel 7 as my phone, and a Duo for my wi-fi reader, and lots…

  • Pixel 7 oakxco Case – White

    Pixel 7 oakxco Case – White

    I like this case, it has decent protection of all sides … it’s sufficient for normal use. Way better than using the Pixel 7 naked. I have Theme Icons turned on. My Emby app icon stands out because of that. Hmmm.

  • Charging a Pixel 7

    “Charging Wirelessly” “Charging Slowly” “Charging Rapidly” Pixel 7. On Samsung Wireless Charger, just Charging Wirelessly. Very slowly too, while Samsung devices say Fast Charging Wirelessly. I connected Pixel 7 to my USB-C cord that is plugged into my PC USB-C power port, Instant “Charging Slowly” message, then a couple of seconds later “Charging Rapidly” OK.…

  • Pixel 7 on AT&T Trouble with Data initially

    My phone arrived today, out of the box, then activated online, no data. Only phone calls and text. What a headache. Eventually I tried adding other APN’s. Didn’t work, not the ENHANCEDPHONE (which is what was in the box on the device as it came to me today) nor was it NXTGENPHONE. Both of those…

  • Upgrading on AT&T to Pixel 7

    Upgrading on AT&T to Pixel 7

    I miss my Duo 2 soooo much. Like a runaway cat that got out. My Surface Duo 2 is in for warranty exchange but languishing in the system. Not knowing whether or not I’ll get one back ever is up in the air. (Not secretly wishing I do get one, I am open about the…

  • Day after day no email from Microsoft

    1/1/2023 I got a delay sort of message via email from Microsoft about my Duo 2 warranty service. We continue to anticipate a longer than normal fulfilment time for your service order, as a result you may experience a delay. You will receive a notification to inform you of any updates. We apologize for any…

  • N920p on AT&T

    Today is the 13th day I have had without my Surface Duo 2. Two days ago, desperate, I got out the old Galaxy Note 5 (N920p) which no one was using for anything. Was able to get it UNLOCKED yesterday, and put in my AT&T sim, it didn’t work, tried all sorts of things, eventually…

  • No Christmas Photos Because …

    Many weeks ago I got my now very difficult to charge Handycam out (2008 Christmas present) to get using it again and set it up on my tripod on Christmas morning. Plans go awry. Charging, on my desk, it fell off suddenly and there it goes. Plans scrapped. It won’t focus making it a worthless…

  • Duo 2 on journey to TX

    Edited December 24, 2022 6:28 am Estimated delivery Tuesday, December 27 by 9:00 P.M. 2-day Air is a 4 1/2 Business day trip this year. Add in weekend, nearly a week, but quibble on how many business days are in Christmas week, that doesn’t change the outcome of the entire days process so who cares it…

  • My Duo 2 has to be replaced

    Barely to 7 mo. with this device, and the right screen suddenly started showing a line on everything but solid black. Like a translucent line, softer at the edges, not thin, thicker with the soft edges. It was even more obvious when I put just a single color on the screens. The right screen was…
