A Working Android Messages Desktop Client

A while ago an unofficial android messaging client was posted here. I began to use it but a few months ago it stopped working. After opening an issue on the Github with no response I decided to fork it and fix it myself.


A download link: [https://github.com/OrangeDrangon/android-messages-desktop/releases/latest](https://github.com/OrangeDrangon/android-messages-desktop/releases/latest)


For those of you who care it is a direct wrapper around the official website using electron. It overrides ...

Motorola Atrix 4G - Looking Back at How Far We've Come!

I found my old Motorola Atrix 4G today, and decided I'd write my thoughts from a 2020 perspective. My current DD is a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra, it's my first time back to Android since my Samsung Galaxy Note LTE (SGH-i717)

Back in 2011, the phone was introduced at CES. As a burgeoning Android fan, and an AT&T subscriber, I knew I had to have it! The ability to do whatever I wanted with Android (more on that later!), the availability of all the docks (I eventually purchased the lapdock, HD Mu...

Is the Samsung Galaxy S21 being released in January, and why?

Rumours from old hands in leaks such as Onleaks and IceUniverse have strongly pointed to a January launch of the latest incarnation of Samsung's flagship phones - the Galaxy S21 series.

Whilst it may seem puzzling why they would do this, I have a few theories if these rumours come true.

Having the latest version of Android only on your flagship, then rolling out the update to previous years phones increases the perceived exclusivity of the phone.

With people updating from the S20/S10 or sim...

I wish phone reviewers demoed the NFC readers on phones with passive tags

With COVID-19 both QR codes and NFC tags have become more of thing that I'm seeing at restaurants and retail. My OnePlus 5 is great overall but it has a pretty weak NFC reader when it comes to reading tags. I know phones like the galaxy s20 and pixel 4 have fantastic tag readers but I don't really know how they are on other phones.

So just some food for thought for any reviewers that happen to be perusing this subreddit....

What is your favorite gimmick on an Android phone?

Over the years, many manufacturers have introduced new features that many have called gimmicks. Many of these are done on a few phones, and just as quickly as they appear, they disappear. However, many of us absolutely love some of the gimmicks that have come out, despite them not catching on in the general market.

Personally, I have had an HTC Evo 3D, which featured a 3D camera, and glasses-free 3D screen. I currently own an LG G8X with a dual screen. While LG is pushing their dual screen phon...

Which company has the best RAM Management?

Depending on your experience, are you happy with your ram management?

Do you have missing notifications, apps getting killed in background all the time etc.?

I want to hear your real world experiences to see what the current state is because https://dontkillmyapp.com/ doesn't seem up to date anymore.

Claims:

OnePlus had a major rework of Oxygen OS but the reviews of OnePlus 8 Pro even said that why have a 12 gb ram if you are not allowed to use it. Is this still the case? If so this means O...

Pixel RMA policy change - no more RMA devices under standard warranty.

I've had to RMA almost every Google device I've owned (my Pixel 3 was RMA'd 3 times for repeat issues). In the past, Google would just swap my device with a refurbished unit.

I guess their poor quality control has caught up with them, as they changed their policy back during the 3A. I have to swap my 4 XL (hardware related issue again), and Google just told me my options are to send in the device for them to repair (being without a phone for weeks), or to go to one of their "certified repair ...
