So I recently bought a new honor magic 5 pro. My last phone the Huawei p20 pro was around 5 years old and started to show significantly less battery life. So I want to use this phone again for 5 years. But now I wonder should I keep the battery around 50% (65-35) and charge twice as often or should I 80-20 and charge once every...

Foxconn subsidiary FIH, the owner of about 15% of HMD bonds, has published its financial report for 2022....

I’m starting to see not as many newer mobiles in the Lineage OS list as I used to. The US is a lost cause with companies not allowing their bootloader to be unlocked, but even the Chinese companies like OPPO, Vivo, OnePlus etc don’t seem to have their recent devices on the Lineage OS supported list. Am I imagining this, or...

It’s open source and I’d like some feedbacks, as you can see I such at designing mobile apps....

I normally use the Aurora frontend, but I used Google’s app to check something. I couldn’t help but notice that when I swiped and then let go, the page would barely move past the point I had let go. It had no momentum whatsoever. As soon as I got past the ads, scrolling was back to normal and the exact same flinging motion...

Hi, I’m wondering myself is root useful or not ? In which case it can be useful ? And Root with magisk is unsecure ?

I’ve been proudly using Lineage OS with microg on my phone for a while now, and while it wasn’t ideal, it was good for my daily use....

… & video showing how it works

While the Pixel 6 ushered in three years of major Android OS version updates and an additional two for security patches, that’s still nowhere near the longevity of the iPhone. Google hopes to change that on the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro with noticeably more OS updates.

I’ve been trying on and off for the past few months but it seems like they don’t actually drop them. I’ve fought so many of them that I’ve already gotten at least three skeletal bat pet drops, which is supposed to be rarer than cursed staves. I had a similar issue with ice staves where the wiki stated that snow bats drop...

i apologize for how niche this question is cuz im not sure where else to post this i’m currently running microg lineage with verizon, but i’m soon switching to a google fi plan. will the service work fine in this rom ?

You cant. They just shut down the server and removed the unlocker app from their site. Maybe, just maybe, they will release a “rewritten version” in the coming months according to some guy on xda who asked them....

The Google Pixel 8 and 8 Pro have leaked extensively in the last few months. These phones should officially debut in just over a month since Google typically announces new Pixels in early October. Leaked renders and hands-on images have already given us a good look at the Pixel 8’s design. Now, Google itself has accidentally...

Google has really tried to go all in on automation since the rollout of its redesigned Home app in May. There’s been the introduction of a new script editor, Nest Cam Indoor integration and, now, a whole slew of new routines to use. The company has announced 18 new routines — half starters and half actions — immediately...

As a reminder, the PlayStation Portal, or Project Q, is (according to leaks) based on Android. It doesn’t run the games itself, it merely streams them from your PS5 and your handheld then serves as a controller with its own display....

Is there any app that stops certain social media apps from been installed on your phone

I have been dealing with stuttering apps whenever the app is built using flutter, I can’t really explain this given no one else seems to have this issue. Is it that the pixel 6 is weak sauce, graphineOS or something else?

Hey guys, Im trying to get rid of google apps so I have installed GCAM port MGC_8.9.097_A11_V4_ENG and simple gallery pro from fdroid. They are both amazing, but when Im in camera app and I want to use thumbnail to open last picture in gallery, it does open but then after 2 sec screen refreshes like I reopened the app. And even...

There’s also a new Bing widget that lets you access the chat from the homepage....
