  1. @XboxDynasty warum sollte man?
    Ich nutze jetzt seit 2015 erst eine #xboxone und zuletzt eine #xboxones und bin zufrieden.
    Dieses wirre #bashing von #fanboys beeindruckt mich nicht. Ich finde die Strategie von #Xbox / #microsoft auch sinnvoll #XboxGaming auf sämtliche Geräte zu erweitern und weiteren Nutzern zugänglich zu machen. Ob die aktuelle Preispolitik dabei hilft sei mal dahin gestellt. Aber #PlayAnywhere und #xboxgamepass sind zwei absolut geniale Features 🙂👍

  2. Xbox One S with a "bad HDMI port" arrived today. It's been painted a rather dark purple-ish color, fairly well done, actually. Still had a warranty sticker on it and from what I saw inside, yeah I think it hadn't been opened before. Most of the intakes were clogged with dust etc. Hooked up and powered on. Fired up and.. displayed. Ok.. reached back and wiggled the cord.. blink. Aight, might need to reflow the port.

    Disassembled, cleaning along the way. Thermal paste was more cement than paste. Checked the port and thought "you know, this is solid on the board, the pins are fine... say what's this?" Turns out the outside frame of the port was bent a bit so it was wiggly. So I went at it with a pry tool and pliers and bent it back into place to where it barely moved any more.

    New paste on the APU, put the bits back together enough to hook it back up and test. Fired up, displayed, and this time when I wiggled the cord.. no blinks. Put it back together all the way and brought it in to do more testing. Updated, logged in my profile, DLd the Doom collection, installed fine. Played for an hour and no issues at all. Still sitting there running right now.

    Yeah '94 Doom isn't the most demanding game, but I literally don't have any Xbox One discs, lol. Never bought any physical games for the One I had or the Series X I have now, just use em for Game Pass. I did stick a 360 game in it and it read it and knew what it was and initiated the file DL from M$ servers so that's promising, I think. .. Yeah I really should drop by Game Stop and get the cheapest Xbone game I can find so I at least have one to test with.

    Now I have 2 Xbones I can sell, a One X and this One S. I should prob get on with that heh.

  4. So, my yesterday was.. fun? After walking neighbor's dog, my back seized in the 100 yards from his place to mine. Old injury shit. Stretched, laid on the floor, etc. An Xbone S was delivered at 1pm, so I hobbled to the mailboxes and got it. eBay listing just said "not working". Got a cord, plugged it in, hooked to monitor. Powered on... No display. Cracked it open, obviously not for the first time (it was fairly beat up) and got down to the Mobo. The size of the solder blobs, lol. Very amateur repair attempt, looked like no flux was used.

    Waited till after 5pm so the shed was mostly in the shade (it's been +100°F for 2 weeks and I'm not stupid), shuffled out and set up my table and soldering kit. And fans. Again, not stupid.

    Got the port off, cleaned up the board. Checked for damage, couple scrapes and such but mostly in the ground plane and no cut traces or ripped pads. Checked the port, looked ok. Cleaned it up, tinned the pads, set the port in place and hot air gunned the pins till I saw solder melt. Waited a couple seconds, checked the port, solid in place. Since the thru holes didn't have the copper "seats" or rings anymore, solder wasn't gonna hold the legs to the board real well. So flipped the board and ran a bunch of solder through till there were blobs on the top side to hopefully wedge the port in place, more or less. Tested and it felt solid as hell.

    Cleaned up the board and let it cool off as much as it could. Put fresh thermal paste on the chip. Assembled it enough to take inside and test again. Powered on.. and we have a display! As well as an auto login to somebody's MS account. This is why you shouldn't do that on your devices. I'm a good person (ok sometimes) and reset the console after testing functionality. Cleaned up the shell and fully assembled it.

    By now it's 930 PM. Hobbled up to only neighbor left in here I like, whose One S broke months ago. He says ".. Is that mine from the garbage?" "Nope, but it is yours. Happy b-day dude." "Oh shit!"

  11. Buenos días #mastodoners, este finde he tenido bastate lío y a penas he cogido el móvil. Sí, uso mastodon principalmente con el móvil.

    Me regalaron la #XboxSeriesS y tuve que cambiar la cuenta de la #XboxOneS a la nueva y poner a descargar los 20.000 juegos pendientes que tengo XD.
    ¿Lo bueno de esto? Ahora sí puedo jugar al #APlageTaleRequiem del #GamePass :anime_fairy4:

    También seguí un poco con el #GodofWarRagnarok , llevo casi la mitad ya (según vi la lista de misiones que tiene) y ahora parece que está empezando a arrancar.
    Mira que en su día me gustaban los anteriores pero no sé que tiene éste que es decir, voy a jugar y me da una pereza... que luego lo pongo y las horas se pasan volando, pero como que no es como otros juegos que paro de jugar y pienso, que ganas volver a jugar. XD
    No se si alguien le pasa eso con algún juego.

  12. Sharing a pic of my consoles I own. I have a ps2 that my friend gave me as well, but I need to get the HDMI adapter for it. #playstation5 #XboxoneS #Nintendoswitch #Gamer

    I overpaid on Amazon for what I thought was the Xbox One S that I then cancelled and ordered from Microsoft; I learned that this was the new Xbox Series S.

    It is a little confusing, but there are a few consoles out there Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, and
