For the first time in many years I have not rooted my new phone.

It feels a little strange, especially considering I was quite involved in the development of #Magisk a few years ago. And I was also a forum moderator on #XDADevelopers.

Haven't been active in that community in some time, but it still feels like the end of something. Maybe a hint of sorrow, maybe relief?

Oh well... Don't need it anymore and if I ever do I have a bunch of knowledge and expertise to fall back on.

Kaum zu glauben, aber wir nutzen #Skype tatsächlich noch täglich – vor allem für unseren Redaktions-Chat. Bisher gab es keinen Grund, die Plattform zu wechseln, sei es aus Bequemlichkeit oder einfach, weil es schon immer so war. Doch schon bald könnten wir dazu gezwungen sein, auf andere Dienste umzusteigen. Laut der Webseite #XDADevelopers steht die Abschaltung von Skype offenbar kurz bevor.

Reading the #lineageos #blog post about version 22, my impression is that the list of officially supported devices (either 21 or 22) once again became much shorter.

e.g., almost all #samung #smartphones form their main line got dropped.

Interestingly, stable builds on #xdadevelopers seem to flourish.

As all my devices I run are older than 4-5 years, none of them has #lineageos support anymore, although all of them once had it.

Is #lineageos heading towards support of modern devices only?

Project Elixir робить цеглу піратам

"Відкрита" прошивка на базі AOSP нещодавно зробила так, щоб якщо прошивка зрозуміє, що ви неофіційно отримали доступ до ПЛАТНИХ функцій - робить вайп системи разом з eSIM!

Англомовний форум XDA вже видаляють усі пости з Project Elixir тому що вважають це зловмисним ПЗ.

I just realized that I've had my @xdadevelopers account for almost 18 years!

I originally registered an account on #XDADevelopers because it was the go-to forum for #hacking & #modding 1st gen #smartphones like the #HTCBlueAngel (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Blue) and #HTCWizard (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Wiza), which were my 1st and 2nd smartphones respectively, back in the early-mid #noughties.

They ran #WindowsMobile, and they featured a slide-out #QWERTY keyboard for relatively fast and precise thumb-typing, a #ResistiveTouchscreen w/ built-in #stylus for taking handwritten notes and drawing pictures, and a rear-facing camera for shooting digital photos on the go. They even came with a mobile version of the #MicrosoftOffice suite, and you could synchronize your documents, spreadsheets, calendar, and contacts with your laptop or desktop by simply dropping the phone into its #USB cradle.

This was all several years before #iPhone and #Android came along. Dang, now I feel even older than usual. 😅

Screenshot of the XDA Developers website. It says: We value your privacy. Next to this message is a button that they want me to click, for permission to share my data with 1498 partners: Then I would be allowed to read an article on their site that I might find interesting. I think I'll pass.

Long live tbe ROMs. I don't root or install replacement ROM anymore but it is what brought me to and still keeps me enthusiastic about Android. From adding things, to breathing new life into abandoned hardware ROMs are a great thing to have around.

@sleepybisexual OFC that makes sense and I'm shure that you would've already gotten yourself a @Raspberry_Pi #Pi0W if that was within budget...

I'd recommend checking out forums like #xdaDevelopers for #HowTos and #CustomROMs on how to get that done with your #A51...

But be cautious and make backups first and don't do it on a device you can't afford to brick...

For anyone into #GoogleCamera ports ánd owning a #Samsung #Galaxy #S21FE: if you run the #Snapdragon version ánd recently got a firmware update of over 1GB, than you may notice the viewfinder freezing issue finally being fixed... 😜

I'm on #XDAdevelopers since the times you needed to have at least 10 posts in other forums, before even technically able to post in developer forums threads.

And now I look at a new post in a dev forum thread, from a freshly registered user, randomly giving people advice on how/what flashables to install and what to do in case of problem x.

No one asked for this.
Did you ask the OP if third party install instructions are wanted?
What's the purpose of this post?

Please, just don't do this 🙄
