Why didn't Samsung invest in the 3D depth sensor face unlock? From an S10 5G user (and this feature was recently enabled from update).

I'm just curious here. I bought this phone last August, and overall am very happy with it. I like having the two cameras (standard and wide angle) on the front. But this post speaks about the 3D depth sensor. On the front and back camera arrays. I noticed after an update a few weeks ago that my face unlock was working more like 70% of the time instead of like 40% pre update. I also noticed the dim red light in the array that flickers while it's scanning, similar to how my ipad pro scans via Face...

Geometric Weather: it's beautifully designed, it's free, and you get a choice of widgets in different sizes, with different levels of information attached. They're the sort of widgets that go with whatever wallpaper you happen to have installed, which is helpful.

I don't love Google's lukewarm commitment to unified messaging... but I get it. Maybe.

So Soltero said straight up that part of his job is to provide clarity around how these pieces under his umbrella "fulfill specific Missions." Some variant of that has been Google's talking point for a while, but it really seems like in this case it's an explicit statement that cohesion doesn't mean unification.

I was trying to step outside the debacle of messaging and thought about maps. Specifically, Maps and Earth. In a lot of ways they have similar functionality and overlap, and in fact h...

Reading battery health statistics (actual capacity, cycle count) through ADB

I haven't seen that mentioned around here but you can actually get a reading on various battery stats through ADB.

$ adb shell
coral:/ $ cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/cycle_count
113
coral:/ $ cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_full
3664000

So my Pixel 4 XL still has 3664 mAh after 6 months of use and 113 cycles.

It seems the reading comes from the Maxim fuel gauge chip. Some other devices might have a different sysfs path, like `/sys/class/power_supply/bms`....
