any tips n tricks for 9 , what is appure , heard it helped update android apps and helped with crashes in a pure android 9 phone by updating the apps or something ) Im coming from android 4 and 5 so be gentle Wink

One thing i learned fast on older cheaper phones was to turn off auto updates immediatly as that just fills ur ram with shit real fast and return apps u dont use to factory so they take up as little space as possible (never unlocked or rooted , didnt want to mess with that)

Any apps u always have on ur android phones these days ? All i use my phone for is youtube, movies n whatsap/snap lol

really would like to get rid of chrome and use google as little as possible this time around. alternatives? also an integrated pop up blocker would be swell,duckduck go has mobile ?

Also one of these translate what u see app sounds usefull if free


Not unlocking or any of this fancy stuff.

finally upgrading my phones from android 4 and 5 to 9 and 10 , only reason im upgrading is cause my 4 had a cracked screen now ( still works perfectly after 5 years and very decent battery life, just snapchat that wanted v5 and stopped supporting v4 ) and my 5 that i bought to replace the cracked screen one, its internal storage corrupted and couldnt reflash to factory anymore after doing it succesfull a couple times when it started completely crashing or not loading its settings page anymore, but now it tells me permission denied in fastboot ... ) so im stuck with a perfectly fine screen and battery , cause of some corrupted storage or connection of storage , i think only one of the three partitions (the recovery one, system one seem to work fine and is flashable) is dead, the recovery menu is completely gone and bootloops the phone when trying to enter it, only have fastboot left and well trying to delete or write certain partitions gives me permission denied this time after flashing it succesfully before. something finally gave out.

got me the first generation for 100 eur to try out the brand so i always have a backup phone in case my android 4 finally decides to quit on me.

Had a Mi9 and the phone hardware was fantastic. The software lets it down a lot though, I couldn't live with the rough around the edges software. I downgraded to a Samsung Galaxy S10 5G for twice the price Laughing

A phone like the one you're getting should probably be rooted, depending on any quirky things the manufacturer decides should affect you after rooting. Not rooting my Samsung because I don't want to trigger Knox. Rooting just for Adaway is enough of a reason.

No, I'm saying what I'm saying.

I don't know if it is typical or atypical of a desktop user but I don't care much about my phone other than: does it get updates, does it do what I want it to do. I spent between 0 and 5 hours a week on it. For the rest I have my other (superior) devices to gobble up content.

I wouldn't have commented but you questioned if the lack of attention was '@pple fanboi'ism'. So I wanted to give you another reason. Razz

Do continue your thread, just don't expect everyone to be interested in it for various reasons.

what do u use in stead then that works on all phones ? the facebook infiltrated whatsap ?

oh look a prima donna with fake glas diamonds in his case, cause he likes how it glitters and sparkles like his stunning personality ( COMPENSATING )

real men dont piss on their hands nor drop their phones, never needed a case , never will get one either, only reason i cracked a screen is cause my fucking leg with the side wjhere my phone was in my pants hit a retard pedestrian protector, straight impact right onto the screen with my hip crusing it against the pole :/

50/50 leg gamble and 50/50 which side of the phone was pointed outwards, double fucked

Just use a custom rom like lineageos so your device is debloated. In case you need google crap, install minimal gapps. And do turn on automatic lineageos updates or at least manually verify each month to update and have all latest security patches. Go lineageos and never look back to icrap and vendor android roms Wink

In fact, when aiming to use android, you should first verify the official lineage supported devices. Select the device you like the most, buy it and flash custom rom upon opening the box so you can be liberated of all crap. Do not listen to the many clueless iderps in this topic Wink

holy fuck, the standard android 9 install takes up 6.5 gig on its own .... , my 2014 phone with android 4 was like 600 megs when i got it... and adroid 5 was like 900 meg? including bloatware

hundreds of ring tones, call tones, wallpapers, dafuck is wrong with these developers, did they think like shit we cant sell ringtones anymore, no idiots buying them anymore, just dump em all on the phone so people buy phones with more space

what a load of shit this industry

how much space does lineage take up ?
