High Midrange or old Top Range. £450 - £850 ish....

Hi all! I’m needing to replace my aging Razer Phone 2 (I know lol) and I want to wean off of Google a bit. I’m hoping to buy a mid range phone, no more than 500 Eur and install a custom rom (preferably Lineage). The officially supported phones on the Lineage page are a bit on the older side, but do you guys have any...

I used to use iOS, and there was a great emulator called “Delta”. It was open source and free, and it was so easy to add games to it’s library. Is there such an app for Android? I would very much like it if the app was open source and free.

Whenever I search for questions I have about Android system apps, ADB, flashing, etc. I noticed all the search results are really scammy-looking websites with instructions that sound like they were translated from Chinese by an AI....

Does anyone know of a good privacy respecting (preferably FOSS) parental control app for Android? I’m trying to convince a friend to get a Pixel with GrapheneOS as their kids next phone but they won’t do it unless it let’s them control certain things....

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...

Things like the cool new lemmy apps and the fold phones like the Galaxy Z Flip make me really want to change but it’s tough....

I hope it’s ok to post this here. The Androidbeta community doesn’t seem to have much activity, and while i don’t miss Reddit that much, I’m a bit sad there’s not much beta news over here…

Newpipe hasn’t worked on my Android for several days now. Has YouTube blocked the app, or did an update break it?

A Google spokesperson explains:...

Google appears to have quietly rolled out a feature to the Play Store that allows users to remotely uninstall apps from other devices.

Well it was a fun few days but beeper mini is down. Someone supposedly affiliated with the project said on reddit it was on Beeper’s end but people testing it say Apple has blocked something.

I do not plan to purchase it from a carrier. Yes, I’m in the US. Is this even possible?

Hi friends. I’m looking to replace as many Google services as I can from my life and I am currently looking for a Google Keep alternative....

I am not sure where I land on this issue, I am not entirely sold that it should have been filled to the brim and packed tightly but it does seem like they could have done better either for repairability or at least having things like a headphone jack and maybe better speakers (I have read that speakers can do better with more...

Yeah…...

I’m looking to buy an iPhone 15 when it comes out. For those that also have a Pixel, what are some things that each phone does completely better than the other?...

I broke my Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and can get some from Costco for $160. What else should I be considering in that price range? What do you like?

Hey everyone,...

Hi all, through my experience, the third party apps that are supposed to do this a pure trash. I mean true caller was pretty decent, but it was packed with ads and trackers of course and the overbearing permissions that constantly tries hijacking my set SMS and dialer apps… I don’t think using a third party app is the right...
