Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
Mine can be flaky with the phone bluetooth...they get a bit upset when there are multiple things which want to use the phone audio, e.g. if someone calls me when music is playing. Sometimes they get stuck in a kind of 'on hold' quiet mode rather than playing properly.
Try re-pairing them with the phone, or changing the bluetooth codec on your phone etc.
P.S. I've found the Planet Rock app is a bit crap too, I gave up on it 'cause it wouldn't work with bluetooth properly on various headphones and it won't stream properly at high quality.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
It's a new Samsung S20. How do I change?
And the app plays great on the Marshall and Wonderboom speakers.
I need to use them on daily 2 hour walk.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
i deliberately didn't say how to change 'cause it will depend on your phone and I don't really know how to do it on the different kinds
I've got an S9 and they work brilliantly with it generally, they just have a bit of a wobble when multiple things try to get involved as above. I think that's the phone though, not the headphones.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
They play a bit better through the laptop.
Played with the on-board buttons. One said 'optimising' or summat and that took the bassiness off the PR app.
Will try the missus' phone as she has Spotify on hers. Maybe use that for morning walks.

From the company with a heritage dating back to last November, Eklentson, I give you fleece-lined, waterproof technical walking trousers:
In fairness, just over thirty sheets and they're warm, fit well, have zip up pockets and when held under a running tap the water just beads off. If I were hiking up Kilimanjaro I might have second thoughts, but for walking the hound through the woods in the pissing rain, they'll do.
Even bland can be a type of character

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
Play much better on her phone from Spotify Some songs much better than others.
Much clearer sound, maybe needs more bass. On PR it was very bassy and mushy.
I think they'll be OK and trying to download the Sony app to improve things.
And Mrs Y says they are good and she's a proper musician and singer, so maybe it's me

Report please!
Does it work, and if so to what level?
Was it very spendy?

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
Should be generic, like this?
OBD is supposed to be generic so that manufacturers can't have a monopoly on the kit.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
Cheeky.
AFAIK they're not allowed to do that precisely because it forces you to buy Yamaha kit. Maybe its not the same for bikes.
My 1997 Triumph has the big fat plug under the seat.

£240 - does all major manufacturers- all service stuff - injector coding etc - general faults and resets, live telemetry.
Found the problem on my Land Rover - well it found three as it goes. One was a cracked inter cooler pipe “low boost error” issues with hill descent - the one stopping it working, and I was able to reset the diff from when I had that swapped - clearly the garage didn’t
And I also found a leaky leak off pipe

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
A man with an Irish accent knocked on the door and asked if we wanted to sell our motorhome.
It's already got a Milenco wheel clamp and the top of the range Vodafone tracker, but the MK7 Transit is so ridiculously easy to steal I thought it could do with even more physical security.
That's the ebay pic, I'd never let Jeanie the LMH get in that condition.

Already sorted for the Berghaus walking boots and waterproof coat, so I reckon that would finish the look nice.Asian Boss wrote: ↑Fri Feb 05, 2021 7:19 pmYou could get a walking stick with metal badges attached showing which areas of the Yorkshire Dales you've rambled, to go with them.gremlin wrote: ↑Tue Jan 26, 2021 9:20 am Trousers, but not just any type of trousers, I have technical trousers.

That, a Barbour flat cap and an ever-present bubbling resentment of foreigners would get me lifetime membership of the National Trust I reckon.
