I got this BOOX Go 7 color (gen 2) literally yesterday and I was using it in the morning just fine. I left it for 6 hours and came back to a rectangle on the side (Only when the backlight is on). Read that this was a thing on this model.
Do I refund/exchange, or is it not worth the hassle? Does it spread over time?

(Also I havent dropped it or anything I actually just left for a bit and it started doing that.)

I'm looking at buying a BOOX go 7 color (gen 2), should I be getting a screen protector?

If so, do I get a paper like one?

How has it not been done.

The prescript device is very flipper shaped. Im surprised nobodies made an app for it (at least to my knowledge)

Can i even use the 8bitdo retro numpad on SteamOS?

Ive been looking for ways to configure it but none of them seem to work. Ive tried bottles, python, couldnt get input remapper to install.
Im this close to returning it cuz now its a $45 calculator.

For those who own the amiibo, are they worth the purchase?

I was going to grab a couple for me and my friend, but $50 is like 2.5 copies of silksong.

Are there any mods that allow you to play salmon run solo?

I thought it would be funny to play splatoon (legally acquired) on my steam deck, and I remembered how fun salmon run was. Do there exist any mods that can let me do this?

Also I know Raiders exists, but I'm stuck with a switch 1, so womp womp.

Every time I shut down my steam deck, my SD card path to my roms disappears from Ryujinx.

I formatted it on windows to exFAT, could that be the issue?

Which DLCs are worth getting?

I know theres the bundle (which is a good price) but i didnt know if maybe some are better than others? And I figured i can save a bit buying separately (and without the ost)

What should I buy to start felting?

I didn't want to get a full kit off Amazon because they seem low quality and cheap. Should I buy everything separately? If so, what do I grab?

There's also my local craft store I could check, but I don't recall seeing any felting items

My Steam controller refuses to connect via bluetooth to my Steam Deck

For context, it connects to my PC and Steam Deck through the wireless puck just fine. And last I checked the bluetooth mode worked on my laptop. When I turn on bluetooth on my SD and put the controller into pairing, it doesnt show up.
I tried connecting a dualsense controller to test, and that worked just fine.

Strange?

My left trigger makes a small "tink" sound when i push down halfway

I know its not from haptics cuz it does the same while its powered off. Its not a hard tink, and I dont feel any resistance or really any difference when pushing it down. Its not too loud, but its enough to notice it (and it makes me paranoid).
I tried playing risk of rain 2 today and you cant hear it over all the other buttons getting pressed, which is nice at least.

Is this a problem that could get worse?

Finally got EmuDeck working, but controls just dont work.

Im trying to play Pokemon Platinum with MelonDS, but when i go into the game controls just dont do anything. Trackpads move around and I see a cursor.
One tiny thing, when I hold Start or Select for a second, I feel a little mini rumble. I havent changed any of the steam input controls, but it looks like EmuDeck set some up.

Any help?

How do I uninstall EmuDeck off my deck?

I installed it, then tried opening it again, and it prompted to install again. It already downloaded all the emulators and now it made a big mess. Even deleting it in software didnt get rid of it.

Wasnt there a way to cheese age verification via Gmod?

I would rather not turn over my ID or pics to ANY company. I used to see people use gmod, but im not exactly sure how they did it, maybe i need to keep the camera steadier?

Steam Deck OLED 1Tb vs Xbox ROG Ally X (running Steam OS), is there any difference?

I was this close to buying a steam deck oled at these current prices, but I saw a video by Tech Fowler and kind of made made consider the ROG Ally.

Is the Ally just better than the deck while also having Steam OS?

At the same time though, I feel like im just immediately agreeing with his video, and he kinda over hated on the price. I still like the overall look of the SD, the trackpads are also nice. The ROG just looks sort of strange, and also has the xbox oriented joysticks (Thats just me tho)
