[PSA] Found a workaround for Audiobooks skipping the first word(s) on Bluetooth

Disclaimer! I do not own or have any relationship with the dev(s) behind Relaxio. I just found it perfect for my needs and wanted to share this easy solution.

Long Story Short: Quiet white noise generator while audiobook is playing so speaker doesn't go to sleep

App I used: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.relaxio.relaxio

(Was the first one I found that had the noise volumes separated from the system media volume)

My setup: https://imgur.com/a/0Ik9BIb

Can the technology behind the 'Next Gen Google Assistant' be applied to apps or the Android OS?

Few quotes about the tech:

> Today, we’ve reached a new milestone. Building upon advancements in recurrent neural networks, we developed completely new speech recognition and language understanding models, bringing 100GB of models in the cloud down to less than half a gigabyte. With these new models, the AI that powers the Assistant can now run locally on your phone. This breakthrough enabled us to create a next generation Assistant that processes speech on-device at nearly zero latency, with t...

PSA: Huawei will allow Bootloader Unlocking on the Mate 30/Pro - you can literally flash Gapps to solve the Google problem

> Huawei here is likely to resist as little as possible in terms of limitations as to what users will be able to do with their phones, and he also confirmed that users will be able to unlock the bootloaders for the Mate 30 and 30 Pro.

From the recent [Anandtech article](https://www.anandtech.com/show/14887/huawei-launches-mate-30-mate-30-pro)....

PSA: If you've been getting random pop up ads or Chrome opening randomly with strange websites, check if you have the app "APK Extractor Lite" installed and immediately uninstall it if you do.

TL;DR: App seems to be the cause of this, removed from play store.

A few weeks ago after I updated all of my apps Chrome randomly started opening with strange news sites. I tried apps to track pop ups but they were meant for app based pop ups vs open in browser pop ups. All of the times Chrome was opened, the app in question wasn't being used at all. No prompt to open in Chrome, just opened instantly.

I frantically started searching for solutions until I decided to go through my apps for bad r...

Fairphone 3: ethical, fixable smartphone

I don't think most of you know what this phone is. I saw it in a YouTube video the other day and thought it was amazing. Nobody knows this phones exists so I'm trying to talk about it (I'm not sponsoring or advertising, just thought it was a cool product.)

It has:
removable battery (~3000 mAh)
completely user replaceable parts (camera module, headphone jack module, usb C module, speaker module, etc)
midrange specs (Snapdragon 600 series) + 4GB of RAM
they include all you need - a single screwdr...

Game Progress - backup to Google Play Games

Why do so few games on the Play store utilise the available backup progress to cloud through play games??

Restoring app data is a general nightmare on android/ arc on chromeos

But it there is something there that could make life so much easier for users & it seems to be down to whether devs can be bothered to implement it or not

Think over time I've installed 15 games on my phone and literally about 2 of those are able to save progress to Play Games

Would be good if Play Store made this comp...

The share menu is still bad

Not trying to make this sound like a rant but the share menu still worships googles text messages app above all other apps. If you have ever used messages one time be prepared for google messages to be your only direct share option. I just do not understand why manual control of the share menu is still not an option. Whatever state the share menu is in can stay default but I just want the option to choose which ones come up at the top. Sharing from youtube I can be assured signal messages is at ...

Android 10 on Pixel 2 looks like an intern made the layouts

[Pixel 3a and Pixel 2 side by side](https://imgur.com/a/lxttdlr)

Just upgraded my Pixel and it looked.. wrong. Thought it was Android 10 issue, but it seems that the layout just didn't make the cut this time. In any case it looks horrid.

I hope this isn't some new strategy to make the product obsolete....
