AMA Announcement: LineageOS team (25th of November, 7 pm UK/2 pm EST/11 am PST/8 pm CEST)

We are happy to announce an AMA with the LineageOS team. [LineageOS](https://lineageos.org/) is one of the [most popular](https://stats.lineageos.org/) custom ROMs available for Android devices with over 1.8 million downloads as of today. LineageOS support might give new life to devices that may have been completely abandoned by their OEMs and official LineageOS support could be a big selling point for a lot of enthusiasts. Moreover the project is open source so anyone can have a look at the sou...

Google snuck some changes in the new Google Pay.

Instant payments now have a 1.5% fee and ACH (bank transfers) take 3-5 days.

Card-to-card payments used to be instant and there was no fee.

Back to Zelle and Venmo....

Some small advanced tips for Chrome

I figured to post some small adjustments for Chrome. If you type chrome://flags in the URL bar then you get a separate settings tab where you can enable/disable certain settings for little bit battery usage improvement and for people who don't like the tab grouping implementation.

1. Throttling Javanoscript timers.

When deactivating the tab window in Chrome, various JavaScript task processes are executed in the background, resulting in unnecessary power consumption. By reducing the task processi...

Discovered that the Galaxy S20's open space inside that creates a resonance chamber on the back panel

I have not seen this mentioned on anything official and I don't think it's actually something intentional, more a by-product of the way the internals are configured, but I recently got an S20 5G which was an upgrade from an S10e (S8+ before that) and noticed that every time I crank the volume up when watching something with action in it that simply by resting my fingers on the back of the phone the whole back panel resonates with the explosions and other action going on as well as resonates with...

Just received this mentioning all new apps from August 2021 must be published as app bundle. Is Google phasing out APK support from Android or am I just being paranoid?

[DISCUSSION] In 2020, is it still a viable strategy to buy a phone with the intention to unlock/root/custom ROM when official software support ends? Especially if you want to keep using banking apps, Netflix, etc.?

This is something I realised while I was trying to choose a replacement phone for my aging OnePlus 3T.

Ever since the first Android phones, it used to be relatively easy to extend your device's useful life after its official software support ended - you could just unlock it, slap a custom ROM on it, and use it for another couple of years.

You could even buy phones on hardware merits alone, and disregard software entirely. No more software updates? Bloatware? Buggy or unstable OS? Not liking t...
