I’m looking for a good profile manager for my Android phone. I started using Llama to silence my phone when I’m in specific buildings using Llama’s cell tower locator. Worked great, was free and was light on battery usage. Did I mention it was FREE! Then I got my new smartphone with Nougat and my beloved Llama was not as dependable. I started using MyProfiles which I do like very much. Instead of using which cell tower I was being fed off I started using the WiFi in the building as the trigger. To save on battery life I also used the Bluetooth connections in my vehicles as triggers to turn off WiFi while in the vehicle. That is when I discovered that MyProfiles limited me to three trigger events unless I pay to get MyProfiles+. Being the cheapskate I am, and not wanting to give my financial info to Google, I started looking for a free profile manager. That led me to Sfen which so far seems to work but has limited Icons to tell what state my phone is in and I can’t get the cell tower locator to work yet. Any good profile manager advice from my fellow PhatWalleter’s?

The problem I found with sites that do have robust banter is that the shills outnumber the real people.
Come to think of it, that’s exactly the same reason I left $0.42 in my Wells Fargo brokerage account after my “advisor” tried to convince me that liquidating some equities and re-investing in funds with a 5.25% front load was a good idea. Took them 3 statement cycles to catch it and liquidate my account.
True. But at least sometimes you get information not commonly available. Just as anything in life you have pick thru the junk to find treasures.

MiniDisc Deck Disk Eject Fix
My minidisc deck MDS-JB940 quit ejecting discs a couple years ago. Turns out a small rubber belt got old and stretched out and was failing to turn the small ejection pulley. A new belt is hard to find and is expensive. In desperation I took a rubber band from a bag of rubber bands I bought from the dollar store and used it as a replacement belt. Yesterday my other minidisc deck (MDS JE470) failed to eject. Once again because the ejection belt was old and stretched out. A rubber band fixed it. So instead of searching for a “official” Sony belt just use a rubber band. What do you have to loose? It worked for me, twice.

I checked and I have been a member there for 4 years but rarely visit anymore. I don’t know why I quit visiting. The site seems to have good general information. I think it’s because I’m looking for site that has robust banter on individual stocks and I found myself spending too much time there without learning much about the specific stocks I’m tracking. I will start revisiting again.

I recently joined https://seekingalpha.com/
It’s not a forum exactly, but they appear to allow commenting on the articles. It’s seems like an active place. The site came up quite often when I’d do a Google search. You have to sign up to read entire articles, but it’s free.
I’ll check it out. Thanks.

Have you looked into fool.com?
I did a long time ago and from what I remember; that site became annoying, almost boarding on stalking. Ever since then I avoid anything to do with that site. Things may have changed but I don’t want to chance going back to find out.
