Yeah I can’t go back to normal style launchers. Niagara is great

For me its 250-350. I can usually get a 1 or 2 generation older flagship device at that price, refurbished.

Unfortunately even if you could distribute them here last I checked they don’t have the US band support and going through FCC certification process takes time and money

You can customize the colors I believe? At least I can on my s21fe. I like it, gives my a phone a nice refresh every once in a while

My guess is people weren’t buying large phones anymore. Those that want them are getting foldables. That being said you could get the Galaxy Tab A7, I think there is a version with a 4g modem. Also there are iPad mini models with 5g iirc.

same here.

I’ve used nextradio in the past. It does both streaming and broadcast fm radio iirc. Samsung had a radio app bundled on some of their older phones. I wanna say Note 9 maybe or maybe the previous gen. You could look for the apk and try it

You could cut the chassis open and use thermal glue to attach a heatsink+fan combo directly to the main CPU on the chassis. Wouldn’t look pretty but would probably bring temps to a more manageable point

Mine was the T-Mobile G1. Slide out keyboard and track ball. I remember being underwhelmed by Android at the time so I switched to the Nokia N900 for a while which comparitively was more mature than android and iOS at the time.

You might still be within the return period!

No popup camera, but Samsung Xcover6 Pro might be your jam: https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_xcover6_pro-11600.php

6gb ram, 120hz display, Android 13, Snapdragon 778, SD slot, removeable battery, 3.5mm jack, USB 3.2 w/dex support.

Unfortunately it works. Consumers are dumb. The HBO show The Wire covered this, the drug dealers were losing customers because of low quality product. They rebranded so they could continue selling the same crap. This tactic works. Comcast did a real life version of this in the US, year after year they were rated as one of the worst ISPs, they rebranded as Xfinity and people seemed to stop complaining.

Thank you! I guess I should have mentioned I’m on mobile. But it was pretty easy to add manually once I read the directions

I’d love to try using it more. How do you add it to Firefox?

Yeah for sure, using proper test gear is necessary. But sometimes I’m just trying to do something quick and dirty and injecting tone from my phone is good enough. I also do some audio gear restoration at home and it helps there. Did a big work over of an old Teac reel to reel deck and being able to inject tone was so handy (without stealing gear from work)

I use an app called Signal Generator to diagnose analog audio issues (I work in broadcasting)

That’s because the FM signal needs an antenna that’s longer than you can fit in your phone

I know I’m a minority opinion but I like having the option. It’s like IR blasters, SD cards, removable batteries… things I didn’t use all the time but sometimes come very much in handy.

But why? Gmail (and email in general) is, to me, for long form communication and professional communication. Emoji are the opposite of that

I wish there were better alternatives. I really dislike what maps has become. It used to be streamlined. Now in most views i get so many POI listings (ads) on the map its cluttered and confusing. There’s that weird bottom shelf thing that pops up that I have to swipe down… I tried using Here Maps but it once let me to a dead end thinking it was a road and it has this weird bug in navigation mode where it blurs half of display. I opened a ticket with them months ago and they never solved it.
