State of FM radios in phones now

In their infinite greed, manufacturers blocked the FM radio for years, even though it's such a useful emergency feature.

And now, with the removal of the jack, the antenna is gone too

I know that the recent Snapdragon phones have FM radios enabled now but as more and more OEMs ( let's face it - Samsung) removing the jack. How would it work?

Does the note 10 radio work with the 3.5mm dongle connected?...

Would You Pay for System Updates Rather then Upgrading Every Year?

Hear me out for a minute.

From the past 2 years or so the hardware of Mobile phones (specifically flagships) hasn't improved drastically. I'm still using my 3T from 3 years ago and except the battery, it's running very well, which brings me to my question:

Would you rather that manufacturers introduce annual programs, where instead of the user buying a 1000$ phone each year, pay a small amount (say 100-300$) and get

1. A free battery replacement each year.
2. Get software support for their de...

Enable Android 10 Rules/Routines on any Rooted Pixel Phone

I was able to manually enable rules in my Pixel 3 running Android 10. Not sure if this would work on other Pixel Phones(Ideally it should). You have to be rooted in order for this to work. Don't edit these if you have never edited data files below as you might end up doing something else. Below are the steps:

1. Using any file explorer(which supports navigation in rooted folders), go to /data/data/com.google.android.settings.intelligence/shared_prefs folder.

Opinion: screen ratios should stay below 18:9

I have a OnePlus 7T, and as much as I like the performance of the phone, I constantly wonder why anyone needs or would actually want a 20x9 display. This screen layout (the height being more than double it's width) makes one hand use a pain (literally) without much benefit. Plus YouTube videos and many tv shows look atrocious (you get 0.5" of black bars on each side.)

The few times I do enjoy the 20x9 is when watching feature films, but phones are obviously not the go-to method for watching mo...
