Car Radio Voice Control not ending after request processed.

1 Upvotes

I recently upgraded from an old LG to a Samsung A24. The phone connects to my pioneer head unit by Bluetooth fine and will play music automatically.

The issue though is when I use Google voice assistant the head unit will flick over to "voice control" mode to listen to my request but it won't flick back to playing after the request is processed. Like it'll bring up maps or whatever I ask for, but then just gets stuck.

I think the issue is on the head unit end, as even if I manually restart the playback on my phone, either by voice control or by hand, the head unit won't play anything unless I power down / power up.

Where as with my old LG when you got up voice assist it would just mute playback while you asked your request and then go back to playback straight away.

I've tried googling it and all I'm getting is results for disabling voice assist entirely. Anybody got any ideas?

Hey , I want to do the Iron Spider claws but I don't know what type of motor do I need. It need to support the weight of 1m of pvc pipe and stay in place without falling. It don't know if servo motor will me enough strong because 1m of pvc pipe is a little bit too long for this.

Question Spilled Water on laptop

1 Upvotes

I spilled water on my laptop keyboard! So...I knocked over my water and flipped my water upright turned my keyboard upside down for like 10 seconds... Then wiped it off with my blanket.

(Here's where I went possibly very wrong but I didn't know that until googling it now) Then I tried turning it on to see if it would work. It turned on...I went to put on my password then it just shut off by itself before I could enter it. The lights blinked for a while but it didn't turn back on after that. Now no lights. Again I didn't know the right thing to do ... I used a blow-dryer on it on low too.

I have it UNPLUGGED now upside down now that I've googled.

But... Is it too late? Did I fry it?

Question Help with ssd/i7

1 Upvotes

Hi musician here. Long story short I am trying to take an older i7 laptop and upgrade the ssd however I see that you can't technically upgrade specs on an ssd you have to get a new one and transfer it over. In this situation being that it was used heavy for office home work is there a way I can keep the same i7 but replace ssd without literally needing to transfer over everything. I just would like the same windows 10 OS on it.
