@android Any browser with working notifications (through unified push)

Do you know any FOSS browser for android with unified push support?

@android How to replace location services provided by google without root?
I want to disable google play services for obvious reasons. Ntfy is working fine for me so no issue with push notifications. But GPS is incredibly slow how to replace location functions provided by google (without root)?

Do you keep lists of your favorite things, such as movies, books, recipes, or music albums? You might keep list(s) that looks like this:

• Network (1976)
• Lone Star (1996)
• Devils (1971)
• The Seventh Seal (1957)
• ... Many more films

But how do you rank these?

You might be tempted to order them by preference, but this could quickly get overwhelming for long lists.

A much easier method is to use pairwise comparisons, which shows you single head-to-head pairs, and has you choose which one you like best.

After doing a small number of these matchups, Rank-My-Favs can confidently create a ranked list for you.

Under the hood, Rank-My-Favs uses the advanced Glicko rating system, to determine how many matches are necessary, and for ranking.

• Import your existing lists quickly.

Android 15 Beta 4 is available today as the preview cycle nears its end.

Hey all, so I used Blokada (5, I think) for a long time but then when they forced an upgrade I moved on to AdAway. AdAway is great, it's not perfect, but it gets the job done.

I decided to give ProtonVPN a try, due to recent state legislative website laws. I like it, it's cool but it doesn't block ads in the free version and AdAway can't run at the same time, afaik.

I've heard lots of people talking about how great FF with ublock is and I only recently switched back to Firefox so I'm considering giving that a try but I'm getting overwhelmed.

What is the right combination to block most ads as well pretending to be from another state?

Tested and it works well so far.

I have a Pixel 6 Pro (fully stock) who's wallpaper was migrated from an old S series Samsung. The wallpaper is a photo I took many years ago that I can't seem to find, so the wallpaper is the last remaining copy that I have. Where can I find the photo and/or how can I extract it so that I cam back it up?

Simple Xposed module to support the Belfius app on Rooted devices!

Source
https://github.com/Rikj000/Belfius-Root#belfius-root

License GPLv3

Motivation
Belfius bank was pretty cool about having a rooted device in the past,
they just threw a dismissible warning about security risks of using a rooted device,
and then allowed you to keep using their app.

However on 2024-07-01 this changed.
Nowadays they assume that you're an idiot that will not be able to keep your own device safe if you have root.

I do not agree with that assumption, and likely neither do you.
Only power users that have a good idea of what they're doing tend to root their own devices.

After only a hand full of transactions, done through the tedious browser process,
I grew agitated enough to do the research to write this module.

Hope you'll enjoy this module and the ability to stay rooted!

...so that the browser will open the desktop version of that particular site?

If there is a way of doing this in some other browser, I'd also be interested.

Samsung’s One UI Watch 6 beta is now available for the Galaxy Watch 5 and 4 series, moving beyond sole availability for the Watch 6.

I'm not seeing much on F-Droid, Play Store is... a mess of bullshit, as always.

on my last post I wrote device is a redmi 9c. Turns out it's a redmi 10c and the custom ROM I wanted to install https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-13-unofficial-lineageos-20-0-unified-for-redmi-9a-9c-10a-blossom.4609367/ won't work.

Anyhow, to unlock the device the official way I have to identify to their services through a phone line, not internet, and purchase a sim card, which I'm not going to do to experiment with this device.

I have no use for the stock software in the device and I'd rather have anything foss that works or kinda works.

If you ever experimented with this particular model or know what could work, feel free to post an answer.

A good video to share with those who refuse to leave their bubble.

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?

I want to start learning android dev and I understand that I’ll need the android sdk and cli tools. I want to try it in a kvm because even though it is open source, I would like to keep it separate from my main system. Which distro and vm settings do you suggest I use? Any other tips or your experience with android development on linux would be helpful as well.

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?

Awesome Android Apps

AAA

Hi all,

for 2 years, sporadically, I've been adding awesome FOSS apps with the following:

Rules

• Open Sourced
• Free of charge (on F-Droid and source code repository releases)
• Free as in Freedom
• Ad-free
• Installed and tested by me or by contributor
• Privacy-friendly aware
• Easy to use
• Still in development or polished experience
• Does not lack features compared to proprietary app
• Does not need an account (the only exceptions are self-hosted) apps)
• Has dark theme

...tested by my and then later by contributors. I think many of you will appreciate this simple README.md repo, and I would love some help with it.

🏔️ Codeberg version

I hope you will find it useful! 🤩

I really love solitaire, and I'm looking for a good looking FOSS app. Ideally it should have Klondlike and Napoleon's Tomb. I currently am using the Simple Solitaire Collection( link found here ), which is good but doesn't look very modern.

From Theft Detection Lock to casting on Rivian to Wear OS 5 updates, here’s what’s coming to Android 15 and its device ecosystem.

Hi, I recently experiment by installing vscode and nix on an Android tablet. What do you think about it ? Have you used an android tablet to create a simple development environment?

Another weather app for android. Modern design, take a look. 👀

Back in 2007-ish I told my Mum all about how you could jailbreak iphones and unlock them to make the phone with other carriers. I helped alleviate any concerns by convincing her and myself that if there are any problems after the procedure, nothing physically has been changed on the phone and as long as I made a backup first, we could always switch back.

I jailbroke the iphone 3g she had and it didn't take long before she began to notice a lot of problems, it got hot all the time, the battery drained way fast and animations were juddery and slow and sometimes apps crashed. I restored the backedup image of the phone from before thinking I'd fix everything, but although it improved the situation somewhat, the heat and battery dissipation remained permanent and the phone became useless. Ever since then I've been pretty scared of doing anything of that nature to any phone.

I really want to install Graphene OS on a pixel phone but... well, I also want to be sure I can go back if I change my mind, especially as the phone is expensive. Any risks associated with doing this? Is there any way to screw it up so bad that you permanently brick the phone? If the USB cable breaks or gets yanked in the middle of it or something like that can I always get back to square 1? Is there any known way for things done in the installation of Graphene OS to somehow survive having stock android flashed on to it?

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?
