I guess adb backup was before my time. I did use adb to transfer my apps when I last restored a twrp backup. In perhaps a similar manner to what that did, going by the name. But I did use adb root for that.

Otherwise, I use it to set a lot of otherwise inaccessible settings, like making the back gesture a lot thinner than intended because my touchscreen can handle it, or forcing 120Hz everywhere. I can also set my dpi there without anoying apps.

And ofc I use it to uninstall system apps I don’t need.

After initial setup I do all of that in a root bash session in termux admittedly, but if I hadn’t rooted my device I would still want to do most of that using an adb shell, as most of it doesn’t require root (besides maybe the restoring backups part).

I also use shell environment to semi-automatically transfer media files for certain processes, though I’ll probably move that over to syncrhing at some point.

The main remaining advantage is the ability to automate things on my phone from my pc, I don’t see a lot of those as replacable unless my rom installs kde connect as a system app and they add an immense amount of functionality

thx and wtf.
How can people even use android without adb shell?

I cannot open that, it shows a login page. Could you post a screenshot of what this is supposed to contain?

Shame they lost the display, that was the main benefit of the Xperia line for me.
Regular ~400 dpi screens look terrible and pixelated after being used to 650 dpi.

Guess I’ll have to hope another high dpi phone with headphone jack releases before mine dies.

Nice

All oleds do it at lower brightnesses. They can’t dim very far, so they need to flicker to get a usable color-depth

To be able to catch that, you need tracking. Some identifier to determine if you had 1000 authentications from the same source or different ones.

you can physically wire A into C, it’s the same protocol. This won’t be broken like other adapters because neither device even knows about it

Currently the main repo.
Ideally youd take the definitely broken ones into the archive.
But there is always someone still using them just fine, how could you possibly tell when an app isn’t useful anymore?

Archive is for old versions not old apps. As in if you don’t wanna fiddle with versions you have no reason to enable the repo.
It will only cause casual users issues with not finding apps

$9,000 per metric ton. So 9$ per kg.
Copper is $8.3 per kg.

Thank you metric for not being a pain in the ass

USA, Portugal and Austria are ranked between 0.7 and 0.8.
Israel and Greece are between 0.5 and 0.6.

For comparison: France, Germany, Sweden and Estonia are 0.8-0.9, all beating the US

What is the actual plan?

Navalny:

I like the idea of anti-Putin voters going to the polling stations together at 12 noon, at noon against Putin.

Well, what can they do? Will they close the polling stations at 12 noon? Will they organize an action in support of Putin at 10 a.m.? Will they register everyone who came at noon and put them on the list of unreliable people?

It had long been clear the election would be neither free nor fair: Putin would be the only real candidate standing, with all his prominent critics either dead, imprisoned, in exile or struck off the ballot. But by simply showing up at the appointed hour, Russians could voice their disapproval and expose the vote — intended by the Kremlin to deliver the ultimate acclamation of Putin after his assault on Ukraine — as bogus.

Even with OCR, couldn’t your copy at least in theory be laced with strategically placed minor word changes? Say throughout the book you pick 30 spots to change a word without changing the meaning of the text, or you introduce a typo. If every copy gets a different set of those that would be a unique identifier.
I think I have heard that being done with imperceptable changes in films sent for showings in theaters.

In essence, if that where possible someone could build an api and donate his ID into it that answers all the authentication requests for everyone. There needs to be a way to ensure different users use different IDs, which necessitates a bunch of tracking.

And that in the ideal case

There are tvs that wait a month before giving you a big manually dismissed popup about not being connected to the internet.

It’s a user input device, that in an electric circuit can allow power to either pass through it or not.

You can use Simple Play Integrity Checker on IzzyOnDroid (fdroid repo) or the play store. It also checks safetynet.
If gpaywallet works that would indicate 2/3 play integrity if your android is recent I think, so it might be unrelated to the api. 3/3 isn’t enforceable yet afaik, too many legitimate devices can’t pass it.

Apps can still bring their own root checks, but magiskhide should allow you to pass those.
Unless the app is quite nasty and checks for the mere presence of apps that don’t do much without root or xposed, in which case there are also modules that allow you to limit what apps other apps can see being installed (really seeing installed apps should be a permission, but sadly it isn’t on most roms yet)

Indeed. I have found an article which I hope I can simply keep bookmarked to make it a simple task following whatever the next method may be.

But I have also found things calm down considerably over time, google seems to concentrate their resources on recent android versions. Once a15 or a16 are out for a bit, I probably won’t even have to update the module anymore.

All my older rooted phones have access to everything, even after years of not caring at all.
