This is a regional release from the brand apparently for Nigerian market only which explains the fact that despite having decent specs( things like 90W charging, 8 GB RAM and 144 Hz high PWM dimming display), it is a 4G phone only.
It is a half baked review, IMO. The author says that despite having 45 W charging, the phone takes 75 mins to charge. Samsung really slows down it's charging speeds post 80%, so testing from 0 to 100 is not a good criterion at all.
(when you hit the recents button) I can't believe they actually restored a feature that they'd removed by accident during an update this is wild. how long has it been back? how many years did it take them to accomplish this
I'm looking for a midrange android tablet, exclusively for taking notes with a stylus in Obsidian. It doesn't need to be powerful, but just take good notes. The ideal size is anything 11'' and under. I would also appreciate if it isn't too bloated, and behaves similar to stock android. I have looked mostly into the Pixel Tablet as well as the Lenovo M11, P11 and K11. Other suggestions are welcome.
Hello everyone, some time ago I broke the screen of my Pixel 5. I brought it to a repair store, which replaced it, but apparently they did a bad job because since then the proximity sensor started to misbehave (it was working even with the broken screen, unfortunately they refuse to acknowledge that and won't repair it for free, and it costs too much to repair it again).
Why does Google Play Protect stop me from sideloading apks (from, say, Obtainium) while almost regularly I read reports about malicious apps being available in Google Playstore itself ? Why do they allow those ?
I used to use stocard to store the fidelty cards from several shops in one place, but now it's apparently closing and they want me to download another app which has 700 features I don't care about and that wants me to make an account and accept cookies..
I am increasingly conscious of security and privacy. I don't want my data or telemetry being sent to google or Facebook, and I want to make sure my device is encrypted and not readable by anyone other than me.
In case anyone's interested, I've updated my list of free games. It now includes games from other sources besides the Play Store, FOSS games marked with ✅️, and clearly stated source in brackets (such as F-droid or GitHub, e.g.).
My old Oneplus 3T is still working fine, but the /e/os it's running is no longer being maintained for this phone.
Are there similar alternatives that I can use?
I have a pixel 6a with graphene installed. I want to transfer everything to a second pixel 6a but the digitizer is toast. I tried mouse via usb a to c dongle to get in and back stuff up, but it doesn't work on lock screen presumably until it is unlocked once with the mouse plugged in, as with the new one.
I currently use a normal tablet for watching lectures + taking notes in splitscreen mode, but I've been thinking that this would be the ideal device for my workflow. Essentially a hinged, dual-pane tablet with stylus support – prefarably with Android. Does anyone know if something like this exists, or if there are any tablets that I can buy a second hinged screen for?
It has much less bloatware than the stock Samsung ROM, the thing is that I feel it's unstable. You do get Galaxy AI as well, and the Vulcan Updates app is a bit broken (at least in my case).
Apparently Android apps (even in current Android versions) can check for the presence of other Android apps by listing the apps they want to check for in their manifest file. Nothing stops them from listing dozens or hundreds of other apps, and some do exactly that. Up til Android 11 they didn't even have to list the other apps in the manifest. Then Google "tightened" things to be almost as bad. Dumb move, Android.
I've got some smart home devices that need to be setup by another device on the same WiFi network, but it has to be 2.4ghz network. My modern android phone insists on connecting to the 5ghz network and so can't complete the setup.
I have been using different apps for years to follow my favorite teams and leagues. I used Bleacher Report for a while and then a few others. Problem always is at some point they get enshitified and start covering the pages with ads, sports betting, and send pushy notifcations.
Hello guys. Is their some way to disable the Android Auto VPN warning? I use a VPN quite often and every time I go in to my car this warning comes up. But I can not disable mute or suspend it. I am aware AA doesn't work well with a VPN. But having no way to like accept that is annoying. Now I have to disable the VPN which I don't always want to do. Or unpair and repair AA every time I want to use it.
Hey all,
I've been looking for an app to replace Flatastic as it's a convenient way to track shared expenses, shopping lists, chores and notes. However, it has ads and basic features locked behind a SaaS model. Ideally such a replacement would be free and open source, but as long as it works and doesn't sell my data, I'd buy something for a few euros. Suggestions are appreciated!
I literally just need to access a link to reset my discord password but for whatever reason discords reset link always does this to me on mobile and I'm nowhere near my desktop.
I've been using Samsung Internet for a very long time, knowing it isn't the best one for privacy. However, the user experience with it is, for me, unmatched by any other browser, including Vivaldi, Brave, and any Firefox forks.
At times I need to open the developer console/inspect element panel from my phone. The Kiwi browser allowed you to do that but its development has stopped. Are there any other browsers that have this function? Either chromium or firefox-based is fine. Alternatively, do you know of any other workarounds for this that do not involve a computer?
