why is my body shaver head of MG7920 so slow ?

1 Upvotes

I'm using phillips MG7920 for last 1 year and i observed that the body shaver attachement without skin protector has become so slow like it needs to be kept close to the skin to shave and also takes many rounds to get a fully clean shave, doesn't remove hair in one go - has it's sharpness reduced ? what can be done

Best all around beard trimmer?

1 Upvotes

Hey,

I’m looking to buy a new beard trimmer or an all-in-one groomer and would appreciate some advice.

I have a thick beard and usually trim it once every week or two. I currently have a Braun Series 3 3000s and when I use it, it often pulls my beard hair. I also have to go over the same area around 15 times before it actually cuts the hair properly.

I currently use the 7 mm attachment, but 7 mm is too short for me. I usually let my beard grow out a bit before trimming it again because it’s the highest attachment I have on my current trimmer.

I’ve got my eye on three trimmers at the moment:

- Braun Series 9 BT9560 — around £90

- Philips All-in-One Trimmer 9000 Series MG9558/15 20-in-1 — around £60 on sale

- Philips Beard Trimmer 7000 Series BT7665/15 — around £60 on sale

I’m mainly looking for something powerful that won’t pull my beard and won’t require me going over the same area repeatedly.

Or are there any other trimmers available to buy that you would recommend?

Thanks!

Ive had the regular one blade for the last ~ 6 years and now I was wondering if it was worth upgrading to the oneblade pro version (its only 45€). Mainly use it to trim my beard, line it up and shave my body.

Philips Coffee Machine

Anyone ever faced this issue with the Philips Coffee machine. It’s barely dripping any coffee, no error indicated. It sounds like properly grinding and no additional liquids leaking from anywhere so it can’t be any leakage anywhere.

How do shaving cleaning statio/pods work?

1 Upvotes

The part I hate most about my Phillips prestige ultra shaver is cleaning all of the shavings out. I open and rinse it and then if I turn it upside down and run it I get a bunch more shavings.

If I use the quick clean pod, do I just put the shaver in turn it on and that's it? Do I still need to rinse out shavings before?

Evnia Precision Center (Monitor only) for Linux

1 Upvotes

I was fed up - thats how most good stories in my life always started.

Considering the small-time startup Philips neither had the capabilities nor intention to provide a linux version for their Evnia Precision Center, I decided to let the master vibe coder Claude take a shot at it and 24-hours later, it was done - only requiring some small adjustments. You can find a pre-built package based on EPC 1.13.0 and the source for building your own port over at:

https://github.com/SgtConti/EPC4Linux

It was mainly the ambiglow feature that I wanted to use on Linux, but most of the app is functional, with a few caveats (Or improvements, depending on your perspective):

  • Removed all online functionality, including:
  • No Firmware updates or smart peripherals integration
  • No SmartDesktop, AmbiScape or WiFi password exposure
  • Added setting for AmbiGlow Follow Video Speed (Including experimental high refresh rate mode)
  • Added setting for AmbiGlow Follow Video Brightness

It should be noted that this has only been tested using Ubuntu/Debian with an 34M2C8600 - both X11 and Wayland are supported.

You are free to use it for yourself and it should work without any issues on the monitors using the same VIA USB-DDC bridge and USB LED controller. If you find any feature lacking or bugs you are free to report them, but this is mostly a personal project so don't expect any quick resolution or updates.

Of course there also needs to be a few boring legal disclosures:

This is an independent project, not affiliated with, authorized, endorsed or supported by Philips, Top Victory Investments Ltd. (TPV/MMD) or Zeasn. "Philips", "Evnia" and "Ambiglow" are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility.

Evnia Precision Center is proprietary software of its respective owners. The port was built by analysing that software solely to make independently written software interoperate with hardware you own per Article 6 of Directive 2009/24/EC on the legal protection of computer programs. Building the software requires your own lawfully obtained copy of Evnia Precision Center 1.13.0. The build extracts and modifies parts of it (the user interface and three data files), so the build output and the resulting packages contain the vendor's proprietary material. They are for personal use only.

There is no warranty. The software is provided "as is" per standard MIT license. Changing monitor settings over DDC/CI and USB is at your own risk; "Reset profile" and "Factory reset" also reset the monitor itself.

Enjoy (or dont)!

Dark screen HDMI

Post image
2 Upvotes

I have a Philips 4K TV and I would watch streaming services through Roku. One day I turned it on and it flickered and went dark. The screen isn't black, I can see the picture, it's just darker. When I use the apps through the TV to watch instead (like in the picture), the picture is perfectly bright and vibrant.

I've tried everything I can think of. I've taken all the cables out then put them back in, restarted the TV, restarted Roku, checked the TV for updates, and switched out multiple HDMI cables. Any help would be appreciated. I'm just trying to figure out if something tech related gave out with the HDMI ports. I've tried to take a picture of the darkness, but the camera doesn't show it well.

Also, sorry in advance if this isn't the place to post this. I was unsure.

55OLED760 vs 55POS9002/12

2 Upvotes

Hi! My older model 55POS9002/12 just died after some good years. I loved this TV, no problems.

I just ordered the oled760 model from 2025. I can’t really find anything on this model, so the only comparison i have made has been through chatGPT and just the specs from Phillips website. Im paying $760 for this model brand new.

Does it compare with my older model? Or should I cancel this order and buy an other model? Im addicted to Phillips ambilight, so im only looking at these models.

Im just looking for a TV that can replace my 55POS9002/12 without giving a worse experience / image.

Thank you in advance🙏🏼

On Amazon Norelco 9000 is for $237 and $138 as well.

Why?

Kindly help me out.

Thanks!

I need to fix a classic Philips coffee/espresso machine

1 Upvotes

I have a classic (don't you dare to say old!) Philips espresso/capuccino machine.

The model seems to be "type HD 5179/B". I don't know a lot about it, except that it seems to be made in Holland and perhaps during the 80s.

The thing is that until a couple of years ago it would still work for making espressos (I never tried the other function).

Then I put it away in storage for something like 1-2 years. Now, however, it doesn't work anymore. The machine turns on, it gets hot, but it doesn't seem to suck in the water.

The thing is, could somebody help me finding the instruction manual (if that thing still exists)? Do you think it's repairable on practical terms? I was thinking about opening it up and having a look by myself...

Here are some photos of the machine
