I can't wait for details to start leaking about the Pixel 2. I was definitely hating on the Pixel when it came out, but the universal praise has me itching to upgrade my 5x.

A friend called me yesterday and asked if I was going to meet them somewhere, and that it was the thing they had sent me a txt about. Of course I hadn't ever received that text message. I have no idea how many other messages I'm missing, but is there anything that can be done to avoid this in the future? Why is SMS such loving garbage lossy protocol, and has not improved in 30years or however long it's been. e: it's 5x on project Fi fwiw peepsalot fucked around with this message at 20:00 on Feb 5, 2017 |

hooah posted:I thought it just works better with root? The app description says it requires root. If you aren't rooted you have to use ADB to grant permission on a per-session basis. Given that level of difficulty it's safe to call it "root only" for 99% of users. peepsalot posted:A friend called me yesterday and asked if I was going to meet them somewhere, and that it was the thing they had sent me a txt about. Of course I hadn't ever received that text message. I guess the answer you're looking for isn't "Tell your friends to use a better messaging protocol." I guarantee your friends use some IM client, even if all your friends aren't using the same one. Edit: Just saw your edit. The problem is you're on Fi and as such you need to avoid SMS/MMS. It works perfectly (and has for 20 years) for everyone on a real carrier but let's be real, the way Fi works pretty much ensures that SMS isn't going to be reliable. That's just reality.

Telling the average smartphone user to not use SMS and get a different messaging program to reach you is a good way to have people laugh at you. I've told people I've used X and Y but they usually always ask what's wrong with texting? This is the US btw

This is the US btw I'm not saying you're wrong but if SMS doesn't work reliably for him what alternative is there? Also I'm not saying he needs to get them to use a different messaging program, I'm saying he should ask what they're already using and use that.

I didn't say it was too complex to implement, I said it was a fairly simple thing and not including it is dumb. There are grades of privacy between everything and nothing. Not thinking of that is dumb. I'm sorry this upset you

What is the best phone for around €300? I have a Moto G (2nd or 3rd gen, I don't even know anymore) that is starting to show it's age. My girlfriend recently got a Huawei P9 Lite and she seems happy with it. It seems a bit big to me, but looking around, nearly every phone these days is that size. I did see a HTC One mini 2 in a store this weekend, it seemed like a perfect size, but I looked it up and it seems dated, so I didn't buy it.

If you're not too over the top about phones, stick with the Motos and get a Moto G4, it's a little less than what you want to spend but it's a great phone. Use the savings to upgrade to the Moto G6 a little sooner than you would've otherwise. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 08:48 on Feb 6, 2017 |

Yeah, I don't know what your moon dollars convert to in real money but a g4 or g4 plus is probably well within your budget. I really like my axon 7, but that might be out of your budget.
