I couldn't find a solution on the internet when I had this problem, so I thought I might share this with other people who run into it.

Enough shit about reddit. Get back to work folk. Tell me a phone with no bloatware at all, or no app pre-installed at all.

Imo all apps like facebook, twitter, Instagram, reddit, imdb, or anything else that requires network and gives almost no benefits are pointless (and always were).

I see most people are finally getting it and there are less useless rest clients nowadays.

There few use cases for such apps - if you are bad at webdesign and have lots of free time. And second thing - theoretically app requires less bandwidth for requesting only JSON.

Hi there, do you know about any Custom ROM communities here apart from LineageOS? I do really miss iodé OS for example. I am also curious: Would you like to have a general Custom ROM community or special custom ROM communities?

I'm trying to lean away from big tech these days so I'd rather avoid having a vanilla android phone that's Google focused with lots of bloat ware. Any recommendations on what to consider?

What routines do you all use that you've found to be helpful? I'm looking to utilize routines more.

A useful one I use is assigning the side button to activate and deactivate the flashlight.

Hey y'all. Like the title says, I'm looking for an android sms app. I used to use signal, but they removed support for it in October last year. I switched over to qksms which has been great, except it doesn't support video, only pictures for MMS. The default app that came with my phone doesnt support group chat titles, and sms messenger from f-droid says it supports video mms, but it keeps failing to send video (despite the size being 1.4Mb). Y'all got any other suggestions?

For a while now I have had this problem that everytime I used a voice command for Google Assistant that a few minutes after the command got executed I get the sound of Google Assistant activating and waiting for input for like 2 seconds or so (also with the green microphone activated icon in the corner).

Does anyone else experience the same problem or has an idea how I can get rid of this?

Anyone got a modern guide to getting NFC payments working with the latest version of Lineage?

I've got a OnePlus 5T (dumpling) running LOS 20.

Got some of my banking apps working - but Google Wallet just won't work.

Is there any apps that can record calls these days? I've been using cube acr until they stopped working due to the accessibility loophole being closed. I'm looking to avoid downloading outside of the Google app store - it's a work phone and I'm not entirely sure if I'd get in trouble or not. Doesn't even need to be great quality.

I am looking for an alternative to Airtags and really want to invest into the Android ecosystem. I am not really fond on the pre-ordering thing of it until I get some real reviews. Any thoughts on the subject? It would be really useful to put one on my bike. TIA 😊
