Dev Symfonium 5.0 (Music player and cast) + 1 year anniversary promotion

A year already since the first beta builds of Symfonium.

This sounds like a mall duration and yet thanks to all your support and feature requests, Symfonium is now at a very mature version 5.0.

A lot have happened since the last post here about version 2.0.In no particular order:

Transcoding engine to play most audio format locally but also when casting to Chromecast devices. (UPnP support to come)
Advanced custom tag parser for Android, supporting more file formats, more tags, multi valu...

Is Android's future in trouble?

I have seen a few articles recently that got me thinking about the future of Android and how it seems the iPhone is gaining more momentum. Is the future of the Android's market share and platform in trouble of being overtaken by iOS?

The articles I’m referring to:

1. iPhone ownership among teens hits 87%

“Who cares” you might think? Well, those teenagers are going to be the next generation of smartphone consumers and will ...

What android should borrow from iOS

Yet another iOS vs Android post

Ill just list what's better on iOS and what android should borrow from it imho.

And overall the things i miss lol

What android should have :

-real cloud backup like icloud :all apps, their data , files , settings , and the ability to disable/enable backup for certain apps

-tap the status bar to perform a "home" -going to the top of the page- (maybe is it possible for third party devs to implement that)

-automatic app filtering in app drawer,using app fla...

You can start Shizuku AUTOMATICALLY on boot completely rootless

I made this flow in Automate that does exactly this. I'm sure this could be done in tasker as well, or any app that lets you run wireless adb.

https://llamalab.com/automate/community/flows/44848

This automation will enable wireless debugging if its disabled, find the necessary wireless adb info, and then run the Shizuku startup noscript via wireless adb.


I've got 2 options in my automation, one that starts each time the device boots.

Sensors Off

Recently added the Sensors Off button to my status bar.
I tried rotating my phone to landscape and usually i get the small prompt button in a corner to rotate the screen. I have also recently upgraded to Android 13 and when I saw that the prompt to rotate screen wasn't showing i thought they've removed the feature or maybe it's a bug. So then i decided to just switch on auto rotate from my status bar but I was still unable to get to landscape mode.
After a while i realised this is because of t...
