| penguin42 | hmm, the house alarm clock has fixed itself, I'm fairly sure it was still wrong when I went to bed after the flip; but then I seem to have had to do the heating clock which I thought did it automatically; sigh | 11:50 |
|---|---|---|
| zxmpi | changed my dumb nokia. should be it | 12:10 |
| daftykins | i do enjoy having something 'dumb' that serves as a reference point :D | 20:19 |
| zxmpi | sadly with the switching off of 3g network my dumb nokia no longer has a web browser. so no more rss or browsing. i got a new 4g nokia dumb phone but seems since 2020 they no longer run unapproved java apps. only the ones nokia allows | 20:24 |
| daftykins | :( that's a shame | 20:25 |
| zxmpi | so looking for a new dumb phone with java support and 4g and internet browser | 20:25 |
| daftykins | i understand that such a model would only be useful if a network supports VoLTE, which i don't think they do over here | 20:25 |
| daftykins | i've always seen handsets drop data from LTE to HSPA/UMTS (3G tiers) when a voice call is in progress | 20:25 |
| zxmpi | it's bloody infuriating as there are java apps installed and you can download a few from store but not the ones i want | 20:26 |
| penguin42 | zxmpi: Maybe https://www.doro.com/en-gb/shop/mobile-devices/easy-phones/doro-6820/ ? | 20:26 |
| zxmpi | so no ereader, micro spreadsheet, memo pad, games | 20:26 |
| penguin42 | oh, no browser etc on it | 20:27 |
| zxmpi | i did look at a few dors and left a question on their site asking. but looking at the manual for that there is no mention of a web browser which is kinda a blue m&m for a good dumb phone | 20:28 |
| zxmpi | *few doros | 20:28 |
| penguin42 | there's not many, otherwise you could look at a few Doros more... | 20:29 |
| zxmpi | can do quite a bit on a 3310 https://mastodon.ie/@zxm/111008086805290628 | 20:31 |
