    I just found my Gear 360 camera after several years and I decided to play around with it again just to find out the app (which i surprisingly still had from older phone transfers) it is no longer being supported...the app opens and everything but the moment i go to connect the gear to the app, the app will crash and theres nothing that can fix it. Sad to say it's going back in its box back to where it came from

    It almost sounds like your timing is a touch too far advanced. Definitely could cause a hard start condition. If you can borrow or rent a timing light id recommend checking that. I think orderzone will loan one. Pretty easy to adjust timing.

    Wouldn't have bothered lowering the jack any further then when the weight was transferred to the jack stands. Going to have to lift it back up when you are done anyway and having a third support below never hurts for safety. I ended up putting eibach springs on mine and poly bump cushions in my struts. No way ever can bottom again.

    I feel you about not caring much about vehicles other than the Kei trucks. I was only riding a bicycle everywhere because I didn't have any love for the vehicles in the US. Best to order all the parts you need all in one if you can help it due to the shipping cost. What made you go with Honda on the Kei trucks? I believe I'm going with the Subaru at this point since I'm going to only use it on the road mostly, I've heard that Honda is also a good one on the road. I see a lot of people going Honda more than I would have thought. I haven't decided if I want a Suzuki but now I wonder why people like the Honda so much Let me know why you picked Honda, I would love to know.

  • @JulesMariani
    @JulesMarianiАй бұрын

    Hi picked Honda because of brand recognition, reliability, engine placement, maintenance, and price. I didn’t want a kei truck with an engine in the cab. I could find the most content and tutorials on the Honda Acty so I felt confident I could take on a majority of the maintenance that would be required. Also, at the time, the Honda was one of the cheapest Kei trucks I could find. If I could go back, I wouldn’t pick the truck I have, but rather a Honda in decent shape or maybe Subaru. But without seeing the truck in person I landed bit of a dud.

  • @dlmurray55

    @@JulesMariani yeah I went to a dealer and wanted a Honda but my legs were too long. I felt like my feet were cramped against the pedals so I didn't have room to quickly move them on and off of the pedals, felt pretty unsafe for me. I ended up going with a Suzuki which was actually my second pick after more research. Luckily the Suzuki I picked was hard to turn down, It had only 12,000 mi and barely any scratches or rust. It was practically a brand new vehicle from the looks of it and the way it ran, probably didn't help the Honda that I tried that was a little bit worn out so when switching gears it felt very bad in the Honda and very smooth in the Suzuki. My guess that would have been fixed with changing parts though, in the end I'm happy with what I got just got to wait for it to get ship back to me. I never drove a stick shift before so that was a very new experience, honestly I thought it would be easier hahaha. I got the hang of it enough but I didn't feel safe driving at the back roads 2 hours from there to my house with the little experience I had and by myself

    I bought the Gear 360 2017 from Amazon UK for £27 in April 2023 knowing about the lack of software support. I also purchased a used Samsung S7 phone and the camera and software works ok with the phone. Another working method is to have a Windows 7 installation which also allows the Gear 360 software to work as intended. For the price paid and a bit of hassle getting the essential software to work I can't complain, it was a great bargain entry into 360 filming. I have multiple short 360 clips made with it on my YT channel including many from Rome, Italy at the Colosseum, also Pompeii and elsewhere!
