mishaq posted:the ribbon cable or whatever that connects the screen to the motherboard isn't gonna have enough play to allow a screen to be mounted in more than one orientation either the short version is that it's not that some are leaving the factory with a panel in one orientation while others are 180 degrees from that, it's that they sources the same panels as the previous phone but designed the phone such that the panel is 180 degrees from that.

oh wow it gets better so, htc doesn't actually develop their own keyboard, and instead include third-party keyboard touchpal. apparently touchpal "accidentally" sent an update to include ads that "mistakenly" went to htc phones which are supposed to have the ad-free version

Larry Parrish posted:My S3 died randomly yesterday so I went and bought a Samsung J3 because it was the cheapest phone available that wasn't used or a flip phone. I see that Samsung realized their default apps are loving trash and now its mostly Google stuff. they don't do this on their flagship phones. they probably only do it on their cheap ones since they literally only put them out to sell mroe units

yo lastinline what is with dyp constantly trying to find the next big thing that's not a nexus/pixel? they keep talking about the essential phone which costs just as much and has a stupid modular gimmick

google launched a new version of android today, oreo. by "launched" i of course mean, it's technically available if you want to janitor your phone by installing it via a computer and it's one the phones no one actually buys, which aren't even getting it ota yet. otherwise, it's not actually out.

the number of dypers freaking out about verizon throttling video quality is incredible. i get the idea that the principle of the thing is bad, but they are making it sound like their life is over. do people really spend so much time streaming video over mobile data that this is a major negative in their lives?
