TWRP Android 10 branch

I just discovered that TWRP recently added a Android 10 branch: https://github.com/TeamWin/android_bootable_recovery/tree/android-10.0

This is good news right? I am not a system programmer, so I have no clue what is going on in the code. Does this mean that TWRP for device preloaded with Android 10 would come relatively soon^TM ?...

What Android phone are you using?

Thought I'd ask this question to spark a discussion. What phone are you using right now, and why? Is there a particular feature you like? Are there any complaints you have about that phone?

I'm using the LG G8. I like it for a few reasons. First is I bought it for a good price (as all LG phones are after a few months, haha). The build quality is amazing and feels great in the hand. Other features I enjoy are the wide-angle camera, quad DAC, sharp display, and also I love LG's skin on Android, w...

General lack of long-term software updates

This is an opinion/rant. I think the lack of software updates on Android phones is the main reason they allways be second to iPhones.

I was updating my phone every 2 years before. Now I doesn't feel tempted. The new phones doesn't offer much new features. Just because it is a little bit faster and it has a better camera and (arguably) better battery life, i won't upgrade. Every phone is almost the same in the last 4-5 years. The second face is that the phones are getting ridiculously expensive...

Am I living in a parallel universe?

SO thats a question im asking myself the last few days while reading about the new IPhone SE everywhere.

All reviews im reading or watching ( LTT , Dave Lee , etc.) are talking about the great value of this new device. But i can not wrap my head around it.

Im one a Samsung Galaxy A51 and fail to see how this new IPhone is even close to being a "value for your money" phone. BUT before everyone is going ahead writing how this phone has the best mobile processor on the market - hear me out first...

Oneplus 8 - USB Tethering benchmarks (latency and bandwidth)

Like an increasing number of others I've 'cut the cord' and only use my mobile for internet access. I use USB tethering to share the data with my other devices. I've done a few benchmarks to determine the USB tethering bandwidth and latency between my recently bought Oneplus 8 and it's tethered device. For testing purposes I connected it directly to my laptop and booted into Windows and Ubuntu. A few issues cropped up that I thought worth highlighting to see if there's anything that can be done...
