I'm not sure when this actually started, but it's been mildly annoying. I'm not able to find any results online about what causes it, or how to fix it.

In the case of the screenshot, it appears when I click the "Health" tab of Wintoys. This error also sometimes shows up when opening the Settings app, and every time I launch Forza Horizon 5. The error always shows 3 times, one after another, then as far as I can tell nothing else happens.

From my research it has something to do with updating, but I'm not sure why it tries to load it in Horizon 5.

Steps I've taken (not in this specific order)

• Tried every built in file system/windows error checker (found no errors)

• Tried copying over an "older" version of the DLL from a previous update stack (required SYSTEM permissions, so didn't press further)

• Tried repairing using Windows Installation Media ("couldn't repair")

• Tried updating windows (no luck)

I'm trying here because I'm hoping maybe there are some helpful anecdotes that might be able to fix it! I am using a Ryzen 7 5800X, just in case this is caused by an incompatibility that I don't know about. I can provide more specs/information if needed :)

Edit: reformatted the steps I took, since it looks like it turned into a big wall of text (at least on Sync)

Edit 2: added the edit text 🤫

Is there anyone else that isn't on Samsung or using the Samsung APK of Google Messages that actually HAS customizable bubbles?

I'm on a Pixel 7 Pro and have been waiting for customizable bubbles. I've tried the debug values but I only have "bugle" flags and "device country". I've also tried installing the beta version, uninstalling the beta, and downloading the latest APK and manually installing it.

I personally don't like the massive header added by the Samsung APK so I've stayed with the pixel variant.

Not entirely sure if this fits here, but it's development related

Identified by Google lens, so let me know if it got it wrong 👽

Rest assured, I did a double take, a cartoon eye rub, and yes, my eyes popped out of my head when I saw it

Mostly because I never expected to see one in person or in my city

(I have no idea if you can, or how to cross post on lemmy)

Hey everyone! I thought I'd post this here since the android beta only has 18 subscribers on Lemmy.

I recently downloaded the Android 14 QPR, and in the update message it claimed I could opt out without wiping my phone before "applying" the update. I did opt out, but after beginning the download. After the download and installation, my phone wants to download the stable release of Android 13 and do a full wipe. I assumed "applying" meant actually installing the update rather than downloading.

Is there any way to get around this, or did I just misunderstand the message and opt out in the wrong order and essentially screw myself?

To be clear: I don't mean roll back to stable without wipe, I'm fine with the beta version I have now. I intended to opt out and not get any more updates until release.

Yeah, I asked a really dumb question in hindsight
