I don’t have many people to celebrate with. Part of getting older is celebrating alone, which is sobering and a change of perception. If you’re reading this, I hope you’re safe. I hope you’re with family that loves you, I got you have a friend....

I’m thinking of using Shizuku to give root access to Automate app. My doubt is will it backfire in some way. I’m trying to automate enabling and disabling of Work Profile based on a schedule which frustratingly is missing on Samsung. I’m trying to run the adb commands “am stop-user -f 10” using privileged user block in...

Chrome keeps reloading anytime I open it, it enters in a loop and emit reloads quicker every time. It does not matter the website, static or dynamic pages have the same issue. I made a video of it:...

I am using an FOSS app called Automation Git repo, it doesn’t allow me to directly open Android Apps except if I use scripts. I don’t know what scripts it’s talking about, but I am trying to learn. Just like there are bash shell scripts, are there android scripts or something of the sort?...

I want to auto start Termux and KDE Connect whenever I reboot. I basically need to launch android applications Termux and KDE connect while my Samsung phone starts and it can’t do it by itself, so, I want a app like MacroDroid which is opensource.

I’m curious as I’ve been running DNS66 on my previous and current phone and whilst it does exactly what it says (blocks all ads across the device) my concern is that the last published update in fdroid sas 2021....

Just received this teaser from the Fairphone newsletter a few minutes ago. A few obvious hints:...

I don’t know if it the better place to ask my question and if it’s not I apologize…...

Curious if any folks here have a Unihertz phone (Jelly/Atom/etc.) and how they’ve been for them. Knowing their constraints, I’ve still been tempted to get one because I think I’d like the more compact sizes, and they’re not super expensive....

Basically, I have an extender for the garden but whenever I go to the garden, my phone remains connected to the extender when I’m back in the house and I can always tell because everything is always slower to load when connecting through it....

So, there’s been ample discussion in the corresponding community threads and Samsung has gotten a lot of hate there....

Will it break any functionality beside android auto?

I’m looking for a simple note taking app for Android, which can sync with a Nextcloud server (or similar decentralyzed software). Thanks in advance!

Hello! I’m actually using a Huawei P30. I love this device because had an amazing camera and spectacular chip. Because I had this good experience with Huawei I’m considering upgrade to a more new Huawei device but I know they don’t have Google services anymore so I’m curious if people who has no Google services can live...

I want an app that only shows me the last line written or that hides words after a few moments of being written....

Hey folks, my wife and I use Pixel phones, but we’re starting to think about a phone for our kid, really just to be able to call 911, probably wouldn’t even get data. We’re looking for cheap and boring, the fewer features, the better. Also open to smart watches, tho we have no experience with them....

I have been loving Native Alpha. Being able to use web versions of apps and not be forced to hand over absurd privacy violating permissions is awesome. My only problem is it appears to run straight off of Chrome’s web engine, and I would rather use Firefox. In large part because of extensions/addons.

My phone is losing regularly GSM network during calls and people are saying that they cannot hear me. Is there any fix of this? I have already tried to disable WiFi Calling, 5G, restart the phone, etc. but those problems persist. I wasn’t able to find reliable information on the internet that could help. If someone is...

What percentage of Android phones are actually running it? I get that it’s brand new and over time more and more phones will report the location of trackers, but are there any metrics on current “market saturation” (for lack of a better word)?...

Hey guys, I’m planning to have a trip to Japan on the 19th....

Will Zygisk + PIF + Shsmiko hide LSPosed?...

I like tasks.org but unfortunately it doesn’t look like this will come any time soon....
