FYI: You can disable all device sensors, including cameras and microphones, on Android 10 via Dev options for better privacy

Like the noscript says, it can be enabled from the developer options, and by enabling "sensors off", it'll add a quick toggle in the drop down shade for quick access.

After enabling it, zero device sensors will be operational, and trying to launch the camera app will result in a black screen and an error/security policy message - or it'll simply just crash. Note that every single sensor, including the proximity/light sensor, will...

[Discussion] UI lag in recent phones. What's your experience?

I would like to open a discussion about your experience regarding any type of UI lag or strange slowdowns on your phone.

Let me make it clear, that this does not include slower loading times for various applications because of lower-spec hardware. I am only talking about issues that have either appeared a while after using your phone (so not there from the start) or they have been there from the start but are disruptive enough for day-to-day use that you think they should be included here.

I got my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 yesterday. AMA about the device

Hey!

I got my Fold2 yesterday. I know when these things come out people have questions. If you have any about the device post it here and I'll come back and answer as best I can in an hour or so.

Notes: I've had the device about 14 hours. I spent 5 of those sleeping and 2 at the gym. It also took almost 2 to copy things over from my OnePlus 6T....

PSA: Your 2FA methods may be restricted after you change your Google password.

I recently changed my password, and when I tried to login again, it asked me to enter an 8 digit backup code. I've always used my phone and/or the Authenticator app for 6 digit code, so I was fucked. My only other option was to go through the Account Recovery, which didn't work.

So, [get your backup codes](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1187538?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en#:~:text=Sign%20in%20with%20a%20backup%20code&text=Enter%20your%20username%20and%20password,Enter%20your%2...

Sony's innovation to Android ecosystem is so underrated..

When Apple introduced the new iPad Air with the fingerprint sensor embedded at the power button, [CNET](https://www.cnet.com/news/apple-integrates-touch-id-fingerprint-unlock-into-top-button-on-new-ipad-air/) said the following:

"Android device makers, like Samsung, have included fingerprint unlocking technology in buttons on the sides of their phones for years"

It's kinda unfortunate that Samsung got mentioned first but it was Sony who popularized the side-mounted fingerprint reader in [2015]...

Will Surface Duo and Z Fold 2 compel developers to fix the Android tablet problem?

We all know the problem I'm talking about, and as I write this on a Tab S6 using the reddit app I'm acutely aware. Do you think putting devices like the Surface Duo and Z Fold 2 in people's pockets will finally convince developers that Android tablets are worth their time? Or are we still a ways off (esp. considering current price points)?...
