Theres a few issue raised today on github. For linux and android. I friend also can't send from Molly. One of the commanders suggests it might be due to AWS issue. https://health.aws.amazon.com/health/status Not sure if thats the case but FYI incase anyone Looks here.

I am trying out the "Modes" on my Galaxy Tab S8+ and curious if default browser can be changed depending on the "Mode"? I know that I can have apps be allowed to run, and that the wallpaper can be set to different images for each "Mode". Just not sure if it can switch to a different set of defaults. Thanks in advance to any information.

Enough shit about reddit. Get back to work folk. Tell me a phone with no bloatware at all, or no app pre-installed at all.

What is everyone's daily driver right now? I'm currently rocking a pixel 6a but can't shake an itching desire for an s23

“OnePlus has announced a new system that limits who can unlock the bootloader on their phones. Stating reasons such as “data security” and an enhanced “system stability” […]. OnePlus has introduced a new procedure where anyone wanting to unlock the bootloader on their devices must first fill out an online request form for “Deep Testing””. Even if it is for one region, it is still enshitification preventing phones to have custom ROM 🤦‍♂️

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/52720355 I am using neo backup often I run into storage issues so I am wondering if there is a possibility of backing data with git, root, Termux, Tasker .

Specifically Typewise which is the only keyboard I know of with hex-shaped keys suited to my fat fingers. Unfortunately it's proprietary. Installed it from Aurora, can't seem to downgrade. Any ideas? Have a look at attached screenshot. The bottom of the keyboard disappears off the screen. Update was supposed to fix this but made it worse. 😠 EDIT: In case anyone has the same problem, I found that rolling back to version 3020308 on Aurora solved the issue.

I now reside in Germany and my current employer pays 50% of this so called Deutschland-Job-Ticket. There is no physical card but travel information you download to an android wallet, but apparently google wallet is the only available option. See the picture:  Google is a company I don’t trust with my data, neither do I expect your regular public transportation authority employee to care about his privacy (he looked at me as I was asking if 2 + 2 equal 4). I am not aware of non google based wallets where I can download the travel information. I tried some f-droid and droidify options but it turns out they’re pure crap. The site: https://abo.ride-ticketing.de/app/ I log in with my username and password, get my travel information and on the bottom the picture I uploaded. Any workarounds? This being Germany, shouldn’t there be an alternative to those who refuse google? Don’t I have that right as a consumer? Another question: I screenshot my logged in session on the link I provided where you see my qr code and my billing data. The public transportation employee told me that’s not allowed (wtf?). Can anyone here provide a rationale?

Until recently, when I took a screenshot with my #pixel it showed a direct share target which was usually the most recent person I shared to. Now, it's got no one. How do I fix that? #Android

I'm going on a trip soon and trying to get myself some things to do. What Android games should I play? Obviously not some cash grab games but something proper. My most played games are Kerbal Space Program, Minecraft, Stormworks, Red dead Redemption 2, Forza Horizon 5, Farming Simulator 19 and 22 and BeamNG. I'm thinking of Pokemon Fire Red on some emulator. Other suggestions?

Hi everyone, I have a problem where the alarm on my Google Pixel phone is dismissed after about 10 minutes of ringing, causing me to miss my alarm. Is there a way to make the alarms ring indefinitely, or at least for 1 hour before it's automatically dismissed?

Yes you can monitor which app eats what, and probably circumvent this with a vpn layer, but sometimes I just wish I would be able to pause an app's access to the net

Does anyone else still not have the emoji wallpaper after yesterday's update?

Posting for visibility

Will this effect Graphene? Too bad that Linux phones don't seem to be going anywhere...

(Maybe edit the community name in the mod settings)

Currently using htop on termux but would ideally like something similar to the system monitor on KDE, that can show a graph of individual core usage as well as memory usage. Does anything like that exist that's open source?

Similar to the very random Share suggestions this has been a pet peeve of mine for ever: How in god's name does Android decide which 3 devices to display in this screen? Two of those I have not connected to in ages and one of those only maybe once or twice ever. Is there any way to change this? I would so love to have my most used devices there to save me a click and searching through the long list of saved devices. Any ideas? If not, that's fine as well, I'm also happy to just have ranted a little.

If I connect my laptop to a Wi-Fi hotspot provided by the phone? Is there a way to let me SSH into the laptop via an IP address? Or vice versa, allow the laptop to SSH into the phone (I can already SSH into my phone on my local network by using an app that provides an SSH server on my phone) from the laptop while it's connected to the hotspot.

Replacing Nokia 8.3 5G cuz it's broken

Hi guys given google and samsung are now pushing for 7 year updates what are your thoughts on buying a new flag ship 1 year old. Example buying Pixel 8 pro instead of Pixel 9 pro or S24 instead of S25 etc. Assuming you buy new you wouldn't even really have to worry about battery degredation and processors these days are overspeced for normal day to day tasks. Just curious is this the norm or is their a hidden catch buying a 1 year old flagship?

Basically I want to hide that all info next to that pencil icon. That info is shown only after I enable developers options in settings. Any ADB command or Setting in Android?

This has started showing up for some reason, suggesting that instead of updating my apps in the background, Google Play is waiting until I open an app to check for updates. Is there like a setting somewhere I need to change?

Hello, I bought my first used phone (Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro) and was wondering what are the best practices taken before using it. I've read the reviews of the merchant selling the phone, looked into ratings and asked some questions about the condition of the phone, so I'm sure of my purchase on that end. What about after receiving the phone? I know I would run a factory reset, aside from that, is there anything else to do?

The storage and processing power of modern smartphones are touted to rival those of a typical laptop. Yet, my trash-picked testing system from over a decade ago with a bottom-of-the-barrel SATA SSD can still boot to the Linux desktop faster than all but one of my Android devices. Understandably, this isn't a huge priority since very few people are cold booting their phones every morning. But is it just plain unoptimized? How hard would it be to optimize? Do security features and checks bog it down? Is it that there's many tiny files to load when booting? What gives?

Faster charging, support for Wi-Fi 7, upgraded uwb and the pixel being sold in more countries.

I've been unable to use it for weeks now, anybody knows if there's something wrong? Or is it just on my end?

(Sure would be nice if I could post this on GrapheneOS's unofficial sublem, but anyway . . . ) Using Graphene, I made a local Seedvault backup on my phone that I would like to upload to the cloud, specifically with/to Filen, but I can't seem to do this, and I'm not aware of any of my other files having this issue. Is this a permissions issue with Seedvault, or is there something else going on?
