I seriously didn't know "DIN" was a friggin' measurement

my 08 xB toastermobile has a double DIN receiver (probably?) so not a problem for me, but I need to get rid of that heap in the next year-ish

if you're talking about the pioneer with the 30-pin connector, you can get a lightning to 30-pin cable adapter and it works on all modern iOS devices, but won't charge anything beyond a fukken classic iPod nano.

only downside is it autoplays the Music app no matter what you do when the iPod is selected unless you're using jailbreak shite

Yes, Apple making retarded poo poo that isn't compatible with the rest of the country & world is good, but only in that it makes people like you spend more money on dongles for your $2000 laptop that is about as usable and feature complete as a $400 Windows shitbox. But at least it has a magnesium case. Lol.

the same is true for any high-end laptop, monitor or video card maker then. Lenovo makes pricey laptops with display port only as well.

it seems like they choose the I/O based on what is technically superior, not which port is on the highest number of budget brand monitors sold over the past decade.

this past saturday i did something that a year ago i thought impossible, and got a brand-new smartphone from a carrier

my wife wanted to trade in her 6s for a SE, and i wanted to get something slightly newer than the 5 i had, so we can give my mom that 5 and get her on our plan instead of using the terrible android tracphone she has, so i got a SE also

not really any different, i dont use many apps and never browsed the internet on my 5, but i have been starting to use safari a little bit more since it is now actually usable -- safari on the iphone 5 shows ads on a lot of sites and has no way to block them

good phone in general :)

hey that's my dashboard and radio

it actually works surprisingly well with bluetooth and i don't drive terribly much, so i haven't really put too much thought into gettnig a carplay receiver.

yeah same. I like having physical buttons/knobs for seek/skip and they all work over BT for me

got one of these a few years ago, puts phone in perfect spot provided you aren't wanting to use the CD player frequently. downside is phone will partially block the vents above radio

i'll have to admit it was a canny move by tim to go through a third party to both comply with the order and save face

Can you guys help me with buying the SE?

The phone looks great and all, but i need

1) SE with TSMC CPU. Well I know there aren't that much differences between Samsung and TSMC, but I usually use the same phone for years to come. I just wont feel good knowing that I have a slightly worse CPU and I don't think I can love it fully.

Which leads to

2) Carrier upgrade. I want to buy the SE from a small carrier store that can't be bought from Apple store, but only the official Apple store allowed me to do things such as exchanging eight 6S+ just to get one with TSMC. I only wish my carrier had similar exchange policy.

Thanks guys.

Buy SIM free from a retail store, abuse 14 day return policy until you get a TSMC iPhone.

Seriously though the TSMC/Samsung issues are virtually nonexistent. I have a N66AP 6s Plus and have no issues with the battery.

nah it's actually translated from someone's post on a taiwanese site


there's another original thread i translated before where they try to identify the cpu of 6s/6s+ with first and last few number of serial

someone in there also mentioned that they've exchanged up to 10 iphone 6s+ but they are still getting samsung chips

and they have a huge excel sheet somewhere apparently

in this photo, the highlighted serials were tsmc, so they wre recommending people to buy iphone 6s+ with serial starting with C34QR in order to get a tsmc part

also

"someone posted:

Started the preorder at Oct 9th for 6S+
Finally got a TSMC version on the 6th phone

C39QK***GRX5 Samsung
C39QK***GRXL Samsung
C38QJ***GRX5 Samsung
C39QJ***GRXL Samsung
C39QJ***GRXH Samsung

C38QH***GRX2 TSMC

Currently keeping both
C39QK***GRX5
C38QH***GRX2
I'm a heavy user, I'm going to PK those phones and see if there's a difference

and the thread for the 6s/6s+ is still going

I had a little fun with the title, and the Pun is somewhat intended. I have about 40gb of really personal content (i.e. porn) on my iPP that I moved from my Samsung tab.

Problem: Everyone who sees or knows that I got a new iPP 9.7 wants to touch it, play with it, and basically try it out. But I don't want them to see all my personal content. I can go into iTunes and remove those folders, and then re-sync later, but these requests have been random and ongoing since the launch. It seems rude to say "Why not go to the Apple Store and try one there?"

Two questions: How do you treat others who want to go through your iPP - do you allow it or is it your private world?

If you do allow it, how do you treat sensitive content?
