The Moto G7 Plus is currently in violation of the "Android Enterprise Recommended" requisites

As much as I love the phones that Moto makes, this sucks. The G7 Plus is supposedly in the list of [android enterprise recommended](https://androidenterprisepartners.withgoogle.com/device/#!/4898556297084928) devices, which means it must get security patches within 90 days of their release for 5 years.

However, the G7 Plus is [currently sitting with the January 2019 security patch](https://i.imgur.com/Rs8xslW.png). This means it's in violation of these requisites already, super soon after laun...

What happened to the interest in rooting from developers?

Is it because every phone has its own security systems that need seperate exploits? Did the interest fade? Or does a rooted OS simply not give you anything worthwhile anymore?


I have seen that the recent huawei p30 cannot be rooted yet. So did i find the oppo find X of a year old cant be rooted. What happened in the scene of custom roms, hacking and tweaking these phones? Why are they pretty much abandoned?

I'd love to sniff around in these chinese phones and spot spyware or chinese apps to...

Did anyone get to actually pay using Google pay on WearOS watch successfully in the Netherlands?

The Google pay app just got enabled on my Fossil Sport in the settings. However when I try to add my debit card I am getting the below message.

This card can't be set up to pay in stores.
This feature isn't supported by your bank for this card yet. You can try adding another card for in-store use....

PSA: WhatsApp delayed notifications and missed calls fix.

Even after setting selecting "Don't Optimize" for WhatsApp in Battery Optimization (Doze), this issue persisted. I seem to have finally found a solution:

>**Delayed Incoming Messages** mostly happened for some users especially for WhatsApp app, there are few workarounds to fix it. Go through **/data/data/com.whatsapp** and search for **gms**, it will showed 3 files there. **Delete** it, **Force Stop** the app, **Reboot** (optional), then try to **Re-Open** the app.

People are telling me an e/mobile wallet is all that. Is It?

Some say it is the best thing since sliced bread. I don't have one is it because I'm old (47) or am I right this thing is gonna pass by like many of these failed attempts at taking over a normal boarding pass/festival ticket etc.

I'm in the coupon/loyalty card business. Do we need to create those for these mobile wallet things or are we fine without It?

What say you my fellow Redditers?...

My experience: Android One vs Custom Roms in Xiaomi device

In the last few weeks, I've been flashing different Roms in my device (Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite, Android One, 9.0 with April patch). After trying CrDroid, Lineage OS, and Resurrection Remix (official builds, with little to no bugs), I must say...

That I've just come back to stock and am much happier. Yes, Roms offer more personalization, visually they are much better with their dark themes and accent colors, kernel speeds are adjustable and so on, but no one compares with stock rom when referring to s...
