This is just a controller that connects to your phone so long as your phone has a USB-C port. It only plays games that you have on your phone. You can also stream games on your phone from Xbox Game Pass and similar services as long as you pay for them and the controller will work for that as well.

@@helphq gamesir g8 plus I placed your order. But can PlayStation games be played on it or do I need to connect to an additional PlayStation to play?thenk you bro

If you pay for their ps plus service you can play ps games.

@@helphq without being Conneected to Any ps game console.the game Can Be played by purchssing

This will not work being connected to any console. It will not work with games you’ve purchased. It will only work with games you can stream from PlayStation plus, Xbox game pass, or games you have on your device already

The controller has a USB-C port and the iPhone 13 has a lightning port therefore the controller is not compatible with the iPhone 13.

I live pretty close to the tower. Without the antenna if I’m using the invisagig modem I get very similar speeds, but the invisagig comes with good antennas out of the box. I do see a dip if using a stock T-Mobile gateway ballpark 150Mbps down 20Mbps up on a good day.

No problem!

@NealLustig Thank you so much!

It doesn’t go directly to the back of the head unit. It plugs into the harness that the canbus is on.

Have you tried the HINT control app? I have a few videos on that. I haven’t been able to get one from T-Mobile. I’ve been trying since it’s release.

@@helphq Thank You and I was able to disable the wifi so I could use my TP-Link Be900 wifi7 router with mine that I just bought a few weeks ago

@@helphq Also is there a way to bridge a connection between the t-mobile router and my be900 router?

You should put your tp link in bridge mode or some companies call it access point mode. This will avoid a double nat.

I can’t speak for the quality control of the battery I used as I bought it on Amazon but I haven’t had any issues with it. Unless you buy an OEM replacement it’s going to be a battery from china. Heck, I think the OEM is also from china.

@@helphq thank you for answering I’m struggling to find a good reliable battery everywhere I go there’s comments about bad batteries I just don’t want to deal with doing it all over again and returning things, mine is a 2014 running Ventura with the patcher but I’m getting the same issue you were having and Apple won’t touch it

Make sure this is the correct battery for your laptop, but ifixit is usually good about not selling junk parts. They have decent customer service as well should you run into any problems. www.ifixit.com/products/macbook-pro-15-retina-late-2013-mid-2014-battery

I'm so glad!

Yeah agreed

Well you don't NEED to do it if the stock gateway is working fine for you. I did this specifically to add a mesh system with a higher (new) WiFi spec so that I had better coverage in my house as well as faster speeds. You definitely don't have to do it though. Plus for my situation specifically the gateway from T-Mobile got the best service in an upstairs bedroom window which meant anyone downstairs or in our finished basement had horrible WiFi signal.... which is why I added the mesh system.

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching the video!

No problem 👍

If you have an iPhone the only buttons you can map are the back two. This is because the controller is mimicking a PlayStation controller in order to work on iOS. So if pressing down on the left analog stick doesn’t work to run then something is setup wrong in the call of duty app or how the phone is recognizing the controller. If you have an android you can use the GameSir app to remap all the buttons. You can see how to map the rear buttons on iOS in the manual here: www.gamesir.hk/pages/manuals-gamesir-g8

Yes you can use this with ATT Internet Air. You will need to disassemble the gateway to hook it up. Installation guide is here: www.waveform.com/a/b/guides/hotspots/att-5g-gateway-cgw450

@@helphq thanks for the quick reply! I am using the business air, its a little bit different. It has two exposed external sma ports for antenna

Sorry for the delay I reached out to my contact at waveform because I didn’t want to provide you with bad information. They said: Quadmini will still work, you will just use ports 1 and 2 or 3 and 4. That being said they recommended the 2x2 lpda for your situation. You can view that here: www.waveform.com/products/mimo-log-periodic-hotspot-external-antennas I hope this helps!

@@helphq Thank you! I already have the 4x4 on the way, it arrives tomorrow. I'm going to see if it can support two 2x2 5G air devices while I'm at it!

I’m interested to hear how that goes!

If you put the Fusion Drive back in and remove the nVme does it boot? The machine should power on even if the hard drive were removed. You’d just get a question mark on the splash screen, but there would be power. You have a different problem. Something isn’t plugged in or something was perhaps inadvertently messed up from static electricity. I’m not sure if you were grounded when you disassembled then machine. I’d double check everything is connected properly. You could try this (typically what you’d do after a power outage): 1) Unplug the iMac power cable from the back of the machine (not from the wall or power strip outlet) 2) Push in and hold the iMac power button for five seconds 3) Release the iMac power button 4) Plug the iMac power cable back into the back of the machine 5) Press the iMac power button normally. The machine will now startup.

@@helphq Previously it was eliminated and merged with the Fusion Drive I just put everything originally, the problem I have is that it does not understand when changing the NVME some configuration that I cannot see

I returned the device because of the lack of support for iPhone.

@@helphq Same !

@helphq please do a video on the g8 plus ?

Unfortunately not. CCC no longer guarantees being able to make an actual bootable copy on apple silicon Mac’s. Apple has a lot of packages requiring signatures and their security features are becoming strict. Since you’re trying to do this on a MacBook I would make sure your SSD and its enclosure are compatible. If the computer recognized it for your first attempt at cloning the drive then they most likely are. With CCC7 the company has taken an approach that’s similar to using Time Machine, but you could look through this article and see if it will help you get it going: support.bombich.com/hc/en-us/articles/20686422131479-Creating-legacy-bootable-copies-of-macOS

@@helphq Good to know. Thanks for the reply and info. As long as I have several backups from CCC to Time Machine, I should be okay, albeit I won't be able to start/run from the external drive.

Sell them and buy any other brand (except netgear since they own orbi)

@@helphq I bought TP Link Mesh Routers yestery. Took less than 10 minutes to set up and the satellites paired themselves without having to reconfigure anything. Lightyears better than Orbi. I will never make that mistake again. Thanks for the reply and advice!

TP Link is good. Never had a problem with them. Glad you got it going.

@@helphq Me too. The teenagers are especially happy. 😂. Thank you Sir!

Awesome! Hope it works out for you!

Are you asking me if your service provider will swap the device out for you or if the FX2000 would work for you on your current plan? In either case I’m not sure. I would note that going to an actual corporate owned store (at least for T-Mobile) as opposed to a third party store usually yields better results when needing help. Some of the third party store will look like it’s a corporate T-Mobile store, but they’re not. You can see which ones are / are not on their website. You could try to pickup the FX2000 second hand if they won’t help you. Just make sure it’s not locked and there’s no money owed on the device.

Maybe the Inseego has the IMEI number edited and it's like a normal "smartphone" operating inside the network. Don't try switching the sim to another device unless they did something during activation to "mask" the device identification step and be able use the sim in any device (don't ask me I'm not a Tmobile engineer).

What version of CCC are you using and what version of OSX/macOS are you on?

@@helphq I used all the new versions like 5,6, and 7 but nothing changed. i was using catalina then i switched to high Sierra but that too changed nothing.

@@helphq Thank you for your replay.

Really you just have to look at the metrics in the T-Mobile home internet app and make small adjustments to the position of the antenna until it’s good. You might be getting some interference depending on where you mounted it and what’s around you. Did you follow this guide? www.waveform.com/a/b/guides/hotspots/t-mobile-5g-gateway-g4

You could probably download the HINT control app for Android on your chrome book and try it that way. ruclips.net/video/s8O8mGugYKA/видео.htmlsi=loZht4oCo6qDWBQ6

Cheers!

The process should be the same you’re just going to be doing everything on the single drive. The downside here is that if you remove the wrong partitions you will lose everything on your machine and it won’t boot.

Thanks, I hope you get it going!

You’re not late. Sony removed the function due to latency issues. You have to use a dongle in order to get Bluetooth to work on the PS5 now unless you use the remote play app.

No problem!

Nope, personal preference. The IMEI is the only requirement to change in order to make T-Mobile Home Internet work.

Check out my HINT control app video. In my opinion it’s easier to turn the WiFi off that way. I have a video for each platform. After you turn the WiFi off on your T-Mobile gateway you can hook up the ASUS and put the ASUS in bridge mode. Some routers call it access point mode.

@@helphq right on thank u so much.. i finally got the HINT Control on the PC, took some getting mad and about to give up, forgot i changed the admin password, but its done, just waiting til tomarrow for the ASUS AX-57 to get delivered so i can hook it to the sagemcom.. u have been super helpful thus far, and i salute u sir.

Hey glad to hear you got it working! The error in your previous message is usually due to the wrong credentials being inputted and the app can’t successfully connect to the gateway.

@johnbaize6825 - This question depends on quite a few things so I'm going to try to break it down and keep it as simple as possible. If you have a 1Tb 5400 RPM mechanical drive the read / write speed of your drive is at best 100 Mbps. If your external drive is USB 3.0 or Thunderbolt 3 then it would be faster. USB 3.0 is on average 640Mbps for a read / write rate while thunderbolt 3 is over 2,000 Mbps. If you are comfortable with taking the computer apart you could purchase an nvme SSD and an adapter. There's a proprietary SSD port on the backside of the logicboard of this machine. This would yield you much better speeds (closer to thunderbolt 3 speeds) and keep the computer intact. You can see the process here to see if you're comfortable with it: ruclips.net/video/8QaujVUVb_I/видео.htmlsi=S149sovCUOFQi-Sq If you choose to go the external route I would personally get a thunderbolt 3 drive and then clone the internal drive. You could erase the internal drive and use it for storage, but if it were me I'd just change the background on the internal drive to something else so that you'll know it's running on the internal drive instead of the external. This way if something were to happen to the external drive the machine is still working and useable. As long as you select the external drive and set it to the default boot drive in the system settings the internal drive will not boot unless you unplug the external drive. Since you already own the 2TB drive you could test this out before buying a thunderbolt 3 drive. Just know you will lose everything that is currently saved on the drive. You might even be happy with it as is and not need to purchase anything else. If the drive is USB 2.0 though it's not going to be any better than what you already have.

No, unfortunately it’s not available in my area.

Are you saying you can’t boot into windows from GRUB and therefore you want to remove GRUB? As in the windows drive just doesn’t work or you have access to it? If you use the distros why do you want to remove GRUB?

I’m not tracking that Roku makes a router. Your Roku device should connect to your third party router fine or even the supplied gateway. If it doesn’t then I would check to make sure your router or gateway is broadcasting in mixed mode and if that doesn’t fix it then change the channel your router is broadcasting on for 2.4 and 5Ghz.

I'm not sure what you're asking. If you have the wifi turned off and reset the the device to factory defaults you should be able to follow the video and do it again. In theory as long as you type the admin password correctly in the app it should just take a minute or two to do it again.

Thanks!

I've never tried it but in theory if the sound bar has a Bluetooth feature it should work like a pair of headphones

Good to know!

What does this mean

@@adriansherrod9113 honestly, I don't know

Awesome! Thanks for watching!

Unfortunately not. The G5 is a different type of processor. You’ll need a version of Linux compatible with that. They have some out there but any of the main distributions will be old. Try www.adelielinux.org/ You’ll need the PowerPC (PPC) version.

Yeah a hair dryer would work. It doesn’t have to get super hot. Just enough to help the adhesive release.

Sorry… sadly these orbi models have a lot of issues… to the point I feel like they should’ve been recalled.

@@helphq it's strange cause it's really expensive. The main router works. But the satellites don't sync whatever I tried. But i must say the connection and speed is fast from the main one that works.

I ended up replacing my head unit as well and the speakers really came alive then! Very happy with them.

You're welcome!

Glad it helped!

I use an eero mesh system. The T-Mobile provided gateway itself is both a modem and a router in one. Tmobiles initial 4g gateways had firewall settings you could configure but when they released their 5g gateways they removed these options for two reasons 1) being that they were looking to make this as simplistic as possible so that anyone could set it up and 2) because you’re accessing the internet via a cellular network the firewall resides on the network and T-Mobile is the only one that can configure it. So in theory your everyday person doesn’t need to be able to mess with settings like that because they are already taking care of it in an effort to protect the network as a whole. I haven’t had any issues using the service and I’ve never been hacked or gotten malware.. not that I’m all that important for that to happen anyway 😉. Hope that helps!

@@helphq well explain, brother, thank you so much! From my little research on this matter the addition of cgnat along with what you’re saying, with service side, firewall Ing, in my opinion as much safer than getting a public IP address. And you’re dead honest as far as we are not targets lol

Router is in bridge mode and getting all ip addresses assigned via DHCP from the modem. This modem in particular also has ip pass through which is as close to bridge mode as you can get. If you choose to go that route then the router connected to the modem would assign all the ip addresses.

@@helphq Thanks for the quick reply, you mean you have your modem in pass-though, not your router correct? I have the INSEEGO FX3100 in pass-through mode. My issue is that some of the wired devices are not getting the correct DHCP from my Synology and I didn't know if this was the result of some setting in the INSEEGO or if it is something weird that the Synology is doing, it has never had this issue before and the INSEEGO is the new equipment. But it was the easiest modem that I have ever owner to get bridge mode working.

So I don’t use this modem anymore. I used it for a limited window for the RUclips video. I use an invisagig 5g modem from haven technologies day to day. When I did use this modem I used it normally with no router attached and had no issues, I tried it in ip pass through mode and found that my speeds weren’t as good. I then tried it not in ip pass through mode and instead made my eero mesh system in bridge mode. Doing this will disable the router functionality and basically just use it as an access point. When I did this I also disabled the WiFi on the inseego. It worked fine doing this as well. One thing to note is this modem is not made to handle a household of 50 plus devices so if you’re trying to use it above the cap of I think 30 ish it will bog it down. The only thing I have plugged in via Ethernet is my synology NAS and it worked fine in any of the configurations. Obviously for the way you are setup you want your Ethernet devices plugged into your router and not your modem.

@@helphq I appreciate your comments. I might try putting the INSEEGO back in charge and out of the pass-through mode then put the Synology mesh system in AP mode to see what happens. It could be that the Synology needs reset, I haven't tried that, it might be something weird going on with it hanging on to Frontier DSL settings. I simply have no clue as to where it is picking up this IP for my Apple TV when it is using ethernet, when it is on wifi it pulls an IP in the correct range and subnet.
