This is a new battery drain for me. Any thoughts?

I've got an LG G2 on T-Mobile, and just yesterday it asked me if I wanted to enable fast charging. Like an idiot, I figured it was something T-Mobile had just added as an update, but after charging for a little while, it didn't seem like it was going faster at all. Did I just give myself a virus? I can't find it in my apps menu, so I don't have a name to search for.

Do you use ES File Explorer? It asked me about fast charging the other day. You can disable it in that app's settings if that's what triggered it.

Yeah, so I just uninstalled that. The app is so weirdly full of adware now. Is there a go-to file explorer that supports SFTP/SMB etc?

The only thing I've not been able to use FX for was some weird glitch where the phone forgot about the custom /ringtones and /notifications folders. ES could do a "force this as default notification" command which I haven't found in FX. Otherwise, FX works perfectly and has some great design+interface to boot.

Was wondering where it came from. Uninstalled ES. It has become nothing but a bloatware ridden POS these days anyways. It has enough feature creep at this point it could just about be its own smartphone OS.

Desk Lamp posted:Out of curiosity, what do people use file explorers for nowadays? I still download mp3s of padcasts occasionally like a chump and use a file explorer to delete them. I also end up downloading random PDFs fairly often and need to delete those. I navigate to a hidden folder of ... Transformers videos. A recent development: I found I can use a micro-USB adapter to plug my camera's SD card into my phone or tablet and use that to quickly share photos on social media. On my tablet, I use it to get to and/or delete comic books.

I was mostly just curious of the advantages over using them over something like Airdroid or the built in file manager if your oem has one.

Oh, mainly because I've been using it since before Android got a native one, so, entropy.

I'm looking for a mail app, that I can disable to not start on startup. I'm currently using Aquamail, but even with a rooted bootloader I can't prevent it from starting up. As I'm notoriously low on RAM, that kind of sucks.

Are they just adware shady, or check to see if that fast-charge thing also installed Spyware shady? I removed the app. I've also been meaning to ask what flashlight app I should get. I had one that came with the phone, but a couple of weeks ago my phone was doing a bunch of stuff while sitting in my pocket, and when I looked the flashlight app was gone from my home screen and I don't see it in the app list, although I think it might have been a widget?

My phone's default flashlight app is crap. It goes On/SOS/Off. Bleh. I now use Flashlight. Tap to turn on, tap to turn off. No ads or anything. It's perfect.

Wow, I lost hope that it would ever happen, but Dark Sky for android is out. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.darksky.darksky I wonder how it compares to weather timeline at this point.

Weather Timeline has some really weird issues. If there is even a 1% chance of rain it will show that its going to rain for the day.

The Ferret King posted:Weather Timeline doesn't seem to know what a thunderstorm is. I get the National Weather Service warnings, but it'll say "Light rain" on my app when we have hail and tornadoes everywhere. That might be due to whatever weather provider the app's pulling information from. It can only be as good as the service, after all.
