| Sunday Rant/Rage (Jun 30 2019) - Your weekly complaint thread! Posted: 30 Jun 2019 04:14 AM PDT Note 1. Join our Discord, IRC, and Telegram chat-rooms! Please see our wiki for instructions. This weekly Sunday thread is for you to let off some steam and speak out about whatever complaint you might have about:
Rules 1) Please do not target any individuals or try to name/shame any individual. If you hate Google/Samsung/HTC etc. for one thing that is fine, but do not be rude to an individual app developer. 2) If you have a suggestion to solve another user's issue, please leave a comment but be sure it's constructive! We do not want any flame-wars. 3) Be respectful of other's opinions. Even if you feel that somebody is "wrong" you don't have to go out of your way to prove them wrong. Disagree politely, and move on. [link] [comments]  | ||

| [DEV] DarQ - Per-app selectable force dark option for Android Q (Root required) Posted: 30 Jun 2019 12:28 PM PDT Since running Android Q on my daily device (perhaps foolishly), something I've wanted is a way to apply force dark to just some apps, as it breaks many apps, such as Facebook and Messenger. DarQ provides this. It uses an accessibility service, and - regrettably - root, to turn on and off the system wide force dark toggle (that's broken in the settings too) as an app opens and closes respectively. Unfortunately, due to the toggle now only being writable with root on beta 4 (it was possible with ADB before), the app does need root. However, that does mean it can apply the main system dark theme too, allowing for an automatic sunset / sunrise application, using the same methods. I think this option was in the system in earlier betas, but has disappeared, so this brings it back. DarQ is totally ad free, doesn't even have the internet permission, and is open source, so you can see exactly what it's doing with that accessibility service and location permission (spoiler: location is for the sunset/sunrise calculation). You can download DarQ from XDA Labs here(why not the Play Store? Accessibility service.) I've written a short FAQ here (also available in the app), on what DarQ can and can't do, as well as some flaws in the system. One thing to take out of that, though, is that force dark is meant as a developer option. Please do not pester app developers asking them to "fix it" with force dark enabled. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Oppo Reno 10x: A Layman's Review Posted: 30 Jun 2019 08:57 AM PDT I have had the phone for a few days now and wanted to give a very basic pros and cons of this phone to those thinking of getting it. The good:
The bad:
Number 3 and 4 of "The bad" are the only real shitty things about this phone. After replacing the home launcher, I barely interact with the system's UI, so it doesnt bother me. But having to turn the phone on, sliding from bottom-right to the left to launch the camera as the only quick camera launch option sucks. I had 3 different options to quickly launch the camera with my previous phone, I have 0 with this phone. If you know how to fix ANY of the bad, please let me know. Otherwise, I would totally recommend it if you are okay with said bad. [link] [comments]  | ||
| How do you organize your phone's apps? (Android) Posted: 30 Jun 2019 12:32 AM PDT I've been using Android for almost 6 years now but I still haven't figured out what the best way to organize myriad of apps I installed. Every time I change my device, once every 2 years, I try to organize all apps folder by folder and customize my home screen to best fit my everyday usage. To be specific, I first organize all my apps and selectively add some folders & individual apps onto my home screen. However as time goes by, this method stumbles upon 2 major problems:
A practical example for 2. is when I only need a subset of the apps that belong to the same category on the home screen. If I have app A, B, C, D in 'tools' folder but only mainly use app A and B, I usually add 'tools' folder on the home screen and remove C, D from the folder. But it is very easy to fail to sync between the two especially when I add a new app E that belongs to 'tools'. What do you guys do to dynamically organize Android apps constantly being added and removed? This has been a hassle for way too long and I wanna find a way to manage things before I move on to Galaxy Note 10. (from Note 8) [link] [comments]  | ||
