Does LC's enamel wear out? Why does it take so much effort to get my Flame pan clean?

edit: the concensus seems to be that once a LC pot can't be cleaned with warm water and dish soap, or boiling with some baking soda, that the enamel has failed and the pan is irreparably damaged.

Does the enamel wear out? Seems like everytime i use this smaller Flame i have to clean it in this order:

  1. LC's cleaner/protectant

  2. Hot soapy water

  3. Barkeepers friend

  4. 2 cups hydrogen peroxide boiled, mixed with baking soda, then boiled for 5 minutes, then srubbed while boiling with a blue scotch-brite pad at the end of a bamboo scraper.

  5. Repeat peroxide/baking soda until clean.

  6. Wash with soap and treat with LC cleaner/protectant before putting away.

As you can imagine, that's a lot i have to do to keep my Flame DO looking the way my Caribbean Blue DO does. Has the enamel failed on this pan, allowing bits of carbon to get stuck in the pits of the enamel? Is it warranty-able?

P2JB + Y2JB really buggy? Anyone else?

Anybody else with issues? Here's just a few that i've seen so far.

  1. Jailbreak completes but autoloader fails to run.

  2. Pop-ups that are supposed to be disabled clearly aren't.

  3. Any other combo besides y2jb 1.5 + p2jb 2.3 pretty much never works (the 5/26/2026 build).

I just wonder if im doing something wrong here. I get it its not gonna be perfect so its not a complaint. But the 7.61 jailbreak was sooo much smoother.

Samsung QN65Q80A, boot loop, backlight test passes ONLY when ribbon cable disconnected.

hey all, i have a QN65Q80A that im trying to get fixed. I followed the information floating around the internet, which revolves mostly around process of elimination. its generally understood that if you disconnect power from the Power Supply Board to the mainboard that the TV will power on its backlights and they'll stay on.

i've noticed that:

if the mainboard is powered and the backlight ribbon and the backlight ribbon cable is plugged in, i'll get no response from the backlights.

If the mainboard is powered and the ribbon cable is disconnected, the backlights will blink around 10 times and stay running until the TV clicks back off. (perhaps an indication of a signal failure?) If the mainboard is not powered and the backlight ribbon cable is disconnected, the backlights will blink around 10 times and stay on indefinately.

so my question:

what's the next test to determine whether to replace the mainboard or the backlight controller board? can we assume that the backlight controller board is working OK if the backlights will blink and stay on indefinately?
