he must have some sort of future fettishization for folding slabs because that thing looks barely better than the sony dual screen tablet from years ago



i take that back the sony tablet looks better and intentional and has a durable design. it also had more serviceable parts

did they take a ps3 and cut it in half, scoop out the insides and replace them with something worse?

unlikely, the only thing that would be worse than a ps3 is a ps4

they whine and complain the minute some market segment looks like it's maturing because minor refinements on a robust foundation don't drive clicks

sometimes I get a "data roaming" notification on my phone when I travel. i can't dismiss it, even when I go back to an area with coverage. i can snooze it, but it comes back an hour later, regardless of where I am. the only way to kill it is to reboot

That is more of your carrier loving up(sprint?) and it keeping losing signal and roaming, and you have the data roaming option off.

Actually from what I see sounds like you have a samsung phone lol

How to turn off Verizon's roaming notification
1. Go to "Settings"
2. Tap "Apps & Notifications"
3. Tap "Notifications"
4. Tap "Notifications" (yes, again, it's a new point, on her phone with a bell next to it)
5. Tap the three little dots at the top-right corner of the next screen
6. Tap "Show system" in the little menu that drops down then
7. Scroll way down to the entries called "Phone" (there are three of them on her phone)
8. Tap the third "Phone" entry (on her phone, it has a generic android icon next to it, not a telephone handset)
9. There you'll see "Verizon Roaming Status", but the switch will be grayed out (can't change it)
10. Instead tap the words "Verizon Roaming Status"
11. Tap "Importance"
12. Set it to "Medium" (=no sound anymore, but you'll still see the icon, a triangle in her case, in the status bar indicating that you're roaming) or "Low" (=you won't be notified at all when you're roaming)...we chose "Medium" and enjoyed the ensuing silence.

well, you're the person angry that google is taking away the "cool hacky parts of android" so you probably "hacked" your way into the bootloop

sarnsung is postponing galaxy fold release events for undisclosed reasons. i'm sure it has nothing to do with them breaking after a day of regular use.
