PSA: If you have a Huawei phone and notifications icons aren't showing in the status bar or lock screen, disable Smart Notifications.

I've had this problem for a really long time and I finally figured how to fix it. For some reason it treats almost all non-stock app as Low-importance regardless if you set the app to high priority notifications in the settings.

You can disable it in:
Settings>Apps&Notifications>Notification&StatusBar>Smart Notification

Hope this can help a few fellow Huawei phone owners, as this bugged me for quite a while now.

EDIT: Here is screenshot of what to disable

This is how to turn off "___ is typing" notifications in Snapchat, Android only.

This only works for Android, and i assume only Android Oreo and later. So you can look for it otherwise, but i assume it won't work for every other Android user.

So basically, go to:
Settings → notifications→snapchat
After that, turn off "audible notifications," under "general" off.

You should be good to go then! ...

After 6 months, I finally finished my space sandbox MMO for on the go

I finally finished my space sandbox MMO for on the go. It took great inspiration from games like EVE Online and Elite Dangerous. It features things like Exploration, Mining, Trading, PvP and PvE. Its also a bit more text based and thus consumes less battery than 3D Games. Its also a 100% free to play and 100% community driven.

​

Would appreciate some feedback on it!

Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 vs Samsung Exynos 9820 Early Performance Comparison & Analysis

These are two unreleased SOCs, with probably a bunch of tuning to do, but I have found some Geekbench results and with the help of /u/CatMerc, analyzed why the results are displaying as they are. Geekbench isn't the best benchmark, and someone like /u/andreif of Anandtech could explain why, and has in the past in his articles, but it is what we have to work with. He will surely do much more detailed testing with more complete hardware/software which gives a better look. This is just a basic prev...
