per gli americani che l’avranno proposto il 2% del PIL pare anche poco

I don’t know a single bank that hasn’t reinvented the wheel and is using their app as a glorified authentication app for generating totp codes

And then i complained that my bank blocked access if adb was enabled…

If there’s no loan attached to that account, for me this message reads “sorry, we don’t want you as a customer. Please contact a bank teller to have a full refund, uninstall this app and don’t forget to leave a 1 star review”

I’m not willing to compromise on this shit. My phone is my phone.

Oops, misread the date, I read Published 11/01/2024 and in my locale it means January 😅

This review is almost one year old. (my mistake in understanding the date, I saw a German flag and assumed German date format which is DD.mm.yyyy)

Also, wonderful hardware but android 12 in 2024 for 700 euro?

Moreover, can run only a generic browser and some showelvare. Most apps in the Huawei appgallery are broken and aren’t getting updates from 3-4 years. (I know because I have a Huawei p30)

Bootloader can’t be unlocked so you’re stuck with a useless outdated os that can’t run most apps

Maybe I’d get one for €100 as a smart home display or for light internet browsing…

At least that app was foss so the source and build is still available on GitHub

Probably the dev was annoyed of the forced change for scoped storage which for a syncing app is almost a complete rewrite

the dev has no online presence, but they updated the app one year ago to add android 13 support

it seems the whole dev profile is gone, maybe they felt the new google verification was a hassle

marketing needs new numbers to push new phones. New version at least once a year or there’s no reason to purchase a new phone

but on android < 15 it resets as soon as you plug the charger, so it’s not as useful which app drained the battery during the day. Plus it’s buried in the settings. (with a decent launcher it’s possible to have a shortcut)

On android > 14 is a good enough replacement, though

Update 2: I inserted an European sim card, a few hours later I got the prompt where android asks if I want to replace Google and chrome with a different default search engine or browser (mandatory by law in Europe) and most important I finally got the prompt to update to Android 15 build AP3A.241005.015 which isn’t the Verizon “certified” one from 6 months ago

So at least I got this problem solved, I’m a bit sad that I can’t run lineageos (seller doesn’t give the super secret bootloader unlocking program that nobody ever saw and needs, but says I have to ship to him and pay an extra fee - I’m sure he’s just going to swap the phone with a T-Mobile one)

update: seller (which is a professional refurbisher) says that all his refurbished pixels are american/verizon and he used to flash the global bootloader via JTAG, but since the pixel 6/android 13 (pixel 6 with android < 12 can, then they patched it with some antirollover) it can’t be done anymore. He says that nobody cares about bootloader unlocking and I’m literally the only one out of thousands of customers to have noticed the issue. He says that there’s a way to jtag the global bootloader onto the verizon pixel 7 and allow bootloader unlocking but it will have a permanent “software tampered” warning on boot and it can’t be locked anymore. Don’t know how much true that is.

Peccato che ormai il premio miglior film animazione 2024 è praticamente già assegnato a questo capolavoro che ha avuto quasi 2 milioni di euro in fondi pubblici https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWMrNmFI-mc

TL;DR: app archiving, useless gemini shit, improvement for the 1% that own a foldable

Simply replace localhost:3000 with the original domain https://www.sega60th.com/

It’s incredible that they still have the same bug of last year when it tries to redirect you to localhost:3000 after logging in with steam

In China is easy. Once you give some millions to tencent/Alibaba/Baidu/bytedance (or having the government force them to do so) for porting their apps, it’s all a Chinese citizen needs.

There are many apps that are actually “mini apps” (a WebView inside tencent WeChat)

When you enter China you need to register with the customs using said “mini app” in WeChat

90% of users exclusively use WeChat, alipay, Baidu, taobao, amaps, douyin (TikTok), xiaohongshu.

Maybe some could find useful to also have Weibo and pinduoduo (temu malware) but the “must have” apps are really a handful, it’s not like in the west

I would have never imagined that the SOC of a high end smartphone set to release in 2026 is going to use the same process node of the SOC of a smartphone released in 2024

This is really a scoop

Wow, i tried it, it’s like an Easter egg. Not only this swipe is nowhere mentioned in the UI, but it only works when applied over the digits, anywhere else on the screen makes a button press
