    HTC's US Social Media Team has been cut.

    Posted: 21 Feb 2018 10:46 AM PST

    From a post in HTC Elevate: (https://elevate.htc.com/blogs/2eaa43dc-794e-4c15-bcb2-420b475bb298/post/c5031a91-cd22-4483-be7e-aba4b5678fc5)

    "Squad,

    Effective immediately, our US social team has been cut, which includes yours truly.

    Ya'll have been more than gracious during the transition in Aaron's wake. I know many of you have been here through the good and bad times, and having your insight was incredibly helpful. I'll still be active on my personal Twitter, but I can't speak to the future of the Elevate social channels.

    Hit me up on LinkedIn if you ever know someone looking for a remote Community Manager or Copywriter. ;)

    Cheers!"

    I don't know what purpose this serves, the bandwidth will remain the same as the 835.

    Android vs iOS from the layman perspective

    Posted: 21 Feb 2018 07:30 PM PST

    OK so I'll go into the history of my phones and then I'll compare them. I've bounced quite a bit between the 2 and have quite a bit of experience with both but little technical knowledge of either and don't really have any loyalty to any specific system

    I will admit I switched phones frequently but it just happens, I have a lot of friends who give me their hand-me-down phones. I do not have a large amount of disposable income no matter how much it seems lol

    2013 June is when I got my first smartphone-Galaxy S4. Then after it was, Galaxy Nexus, iPhone 5, Nexus 5, iPhone 5C, Oneplus One, Xperia Z3, Nexus 6, Oneplus 3T, iPhone 6s+, and now the iPhone 7 plus.

    Quite a few carrier and phone switches lol. My observations over time?

    Android and iOS both offer their own features but share a lot in common. They're packaged differently, look different but share a lot of features. I feel that for the average user, iPhone used to be simpler but my latest use of android (The Onplus 3T) was quite simple when compared to earlier versions of Android.

    A lot of my current friends who have iPhones, when asked why, told me about their poor experiences with android but they tried Android in the early days, Galaxy S3/S4, HTC G1, LG Optimus, point is the phones they used were all non-stock android phones with horrible skins and shitty UIs. Truth is, a lot of apple converts, if they saw the modern Android would probably switch back. Having said that, I liked Android and that, I felt that as a student whose school is heavily integrated with Google Apps, it was nice to have a phone where google products really worked well, I mean every google product was the default which was nice, Gmail, Google docs for essays, Google Photos with its automatic backup, it was nice. I also liked the play store, it was simple, easy to navigate and make purchases, cameras has cool extras, settings weren't impossible to navigate. But I did dislike that, there were times even the mighty Oneplus 3T with its 6 gb ram and snapdragon processor would overheat, freeze, crash, lose battery overnight, lag when switching between apps. I used Android all the way from Kit kat to oreo, and I can say there were massive improvements but there's much to be done. But if your business, school or reason for using Android is because of the Google ecosystem, as long as you get a stock android phone, like Motorola, Google Pixels, or Oneplus (although I hear they spy) you will be pleased and have a good experience. With iOS, I've used it since iOS 3 when I had an iPod Touch and have been with it since then, it's simple. The UI is simple, no app drawer, it's all right there. Can't really customize like, placing apps in random areas, they're all together but, it's simple. Easy to use, navigate. Camera is nicely optimized, battery goes down maybe 1% overnight but I'll still wake up getting all my notifications, emails and texts as I would with android which would lose like 5%. Not a huge difference I know. I like that iOS apps are simple, they don't look much different from android apps, they have less ram but seem to be quite zippy. I switch between apps nicely, nice battery life, and google apps work as nicely tbh although I wish I could have gmail open when I click an email, or for google maps to launch when I click an address, but these are small issues. I do like that iOS, with handoff/continuity/whichever can let me connect to my iMac at school and get Messages while I work, so it saves time, I can have my phone charging and answer texts while I'm dong work, I do hate that Android doesn't have that. I have a Asus Chromebook Flip with the hybrid Android/ChromeOS with the latest update but no way for me to get notifications or texts from my phone or answer. But I think it'll happen eventually.

    Sorry for my grammar and format, if you want any specifics please ask and I'll answer. Thank You

    Google Drive does not let you access apks of apps that get blocked by play protect

    Posted: 21 Feb 2018 06:19 AM PST

    Lucky patcher is one such app. When you install it with Android's package installer, play protect will prompt you with the risks and a button saying, "install anyway" which, if you click, will install the app and put a permanent notification.

    Upload Lucky patcher apk to your Google drive and try opening or downloading it. It will fail.

    Open the file with browser. It will open with Google drive app by default. Go to its app info > defaults and tap on clear defaults. If you're on nougat (of course you are), you'll have to select "don't allow" for "open supported links in app". Now the download button on the site won't work.

    Make the file public and open the file link, it will warn you about the file being "infected"(yeah Google totally found the right word to describe it). Click Download anyway and it will download successfully. Now if try making the file private, Google will show an error "This item may violate our Terms of Service" and a button, "Request review". Now you can either let the link be public or delete the file from Drive.

    Edit: I'm okay with them scanning shit that I make public. Why prevent me from accessing the ones I had stored private?! I was under the impression it was my storage.
