Boiled Water posted:does this also change your volume level or is it made by someone sensible it depends if its a normal person they turn the volume all the way down and nothing happens if its someone who has a vague idea what theyre doing youll get a screenshot with the volume slider obscuring the screen if its a nerd youll get a screenshot btw if you have google on tap enabled you can also longpress the home button and theres an option for a screenshot right there but literally no one knows this

Endless Mike posted:it's 2017 and android still doesn't have a way to backup and restore a phone. only if you view androids across vendors as the same phone as nearly every oem supports moving from one of their older phones to one of their newer ones (except motorola which that person has) i think the only one that even attempts to make it work from any phone (ios included) is the pixel. i wouldnt be surprised if the motorola that user has actaully does bring almost everything over as moto uses the stock google tools mostly but i didnt want to tell them it would and then it not work really in short it all just works unless the oem went out of their way to break it like samsung and lg do

Radio Paranoia posted:samsung has ostensibly the ugliest phone os and this is in a world where ios 10 exists you might think so but no even with an off brand comic sans as a system font and every other thing samsung chose there are worse out there. lg copies samsung and it turns out copies of copies are even worse what i find unbelievable is that samsung themselves believes it looks good. like obv. its common knowledge they copied apples iconography and since that worked theyve tried to stick to the same look because why gently caress up a good thing but no one there could seriously think theyre doing a good job right? its all just an emperors new clothes scenario where no one wants to tell the family oligarch that his taste is trash right?

The Management posted:hey look youtube app got updated out of curiosity i looked at this on my phone and while youtube has all of those permissions listed as things they could request on my device at least not a single one has ever been requested by the app or granted by me most of the permissions are obvious anyway when you realize theyre for live streaming

fartzone_42069 posted:In Chrome when I type the letter "x" it suggests xhamster and xvideos. Obviously, disabling search suggestions is a simple solution. But I like when it suggests my usual (non-porn) sites. I've long pressed to remove xhamster and xvideos. However, the urls to specific videos from removed sites still show up.

Boiled Water posted:how do you design a phone to self-destruct so neatly? I mean sarnsung were forced to replace a lotta lovely phones but this could just be chalked up to "sucks even more to be you anroid user" this falls on qualcomm they made a really lovely soc that had some tremendously bad thermal problems and since they alone p. much dictate what every android device uses every generation welp what i find weird is that its only the lgs and the nexus 6 that had it manifest in bootloops a year later everyone elses phone on the same chipset just thermal throttled itself to uselessness immediately

infernal machines posted:what unreal colours are you finding cars in and how much dmt do you take on a daily basis? as an example here are the colors for americas best selling sports car the miata Machine Gray Metallic Soul Red Metallic Ceramic Metallic Blue Reflex Mica Crystal White Pearl Mica Arctic White Jet Black Mica the blue is actually closer to grey so thats three whites two greys one black and red and the red (and only the red) costs extra you can represent six of the seven colors in greyscale i guess if you want to get crazy theres always the various shades of taupe available at my local toyota dealer

lol go read ron amadeos write up of samsungs voice assistant bixby its loving hilarious heres a taste quote:Like most voice systems, Bixby requires a bit of training when it starts up. First comes the hotword training, which works a lot like Google's. You say "Hi Bixby" a few times, and the app records your voice. So far, so good. with samsung you just never know if the feature was badly implemented or the hardware is broken i guess

Endless Mike posted: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 im not sure i have an accurate read but my quick and dirty assessment is there are three camps technofetishists who only care about anything thats new and shiny (bull, hotsauce, etc). this is a core android constituancy b/c their primary reason for not getting an iphone is that its boring and not cutting edge. they will never not be looking for something else regardless of the quality of the thing they have people in weird places that cant get the pixel which apparently is everywhere or where the price is so crazy that its just not practical. i mean i like the pixel but if it cost what a used car does but has to be imported so no warranty lol i guess the moto g is what im getting poors make up the other big android constituency and can neither afford an $800 phone nor can get financing for $800. they hope against hope there will be some magical way that someone will make something as good as the pixel but at a quarter of the cost because then they could afford it and will have shown us the idiots who spent $800 on a phone how stupid we were  obv. groups 1 and 3 dont care about how good the pixel (or the iphone) is as it has no bearing on their purchasing decision and group 2 has no choice in the matter

Endless Mike posted: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? im sure theyre trying to use mobile data in lieu of home internet and are using it for not only all of their internet but all of their television viewing as well if you tried to replace your car with a pogo stick because youre poor af and the pogo stick company tells you theyre going to start limiting your bounce height youd be pissed too

Endless Mike posted:lol i remember google announcing colored notifications and saying that was going to be abused immediately. glad to see that come to fruition this isnt even the abuse stage this is just the google not thinking things through stage tbf it looks alright in the notification shade itself (at least while other notifications are all white) but all the media stuff looks like the new itunes with the way it colors the controls and notification and when its on the lockscreen and its the cover art welp i hope that cover art is really plain b/c you wont be seeing that notification clearly at all the abuse is going to be obnoxious to deal with tho no doubt

i kinda wish i was more familiar with ios through the years b/c at least on the mac even when apple makes changes i can see what they were trying to accomplish. some things they do arent perfect and some of them are bad but i can see the logic in them (lol remember being able to tweet from the notification center?) google just changes poo poo because its been a year and people learned where things were and how they looked so time to gently caress poo poo up im not sure but im almost certain the lockscreen clock has changed with every android release some years its bold some years its thin some years its an all caps date some years its not and this year its a little smaller than it was before and the date is back to not being all caps but its fixed width because i guess they wanted some ＡＥＳＴＨＥＴＩＣ up in this bitch

Progressive JPEG posted:promotions within the company are given by a committee based on "impact" and it's way easier to sell changing things for no reason or launching a new product that's worse than it's predecessor as "impactful" and promo-worthy. whether the result is successful or even necessary isn't considered. as a result you get poo poo like what you said in android, or e.g. the current years-long sequence of unnecessary chat app rewrites each more irrelevant than the last ive got to ask then how is it that the promotion committee came to value clock size changes? like when youre in front of the career tribunal why arent results or necessity taken into account? my absolute favorite part of this forum is learning the intracacies of the weird dysfunctions in corporate cultures
