    Android TV needs better standards for long-term updates and support

    Inbox by Gmail is finally dead. F

    Posted: 29 Aug 2019 01:25 AM PDT

    The message "Unfortunately, this version of Inbox is no longer supported. Please upgrade your app." comes up on version 1.72, 1.77, 1.78 and probably all the others. It was great while it lasted.

    PSA: dns.adguard.com or other DNS over TLS adblockers may block your Play Store app updates

    Posted: 29 Aug 2019 08:51 PM PDT

    I was unable to update any of the installed apps for a long time (also, didn't install anything new for long). Checked the my apps section on the play store one day and it reporting some 90 apps need to be updated. Started the process but things got stuck at downloading screen.

    Tried restarting, clearing cache etc. but nothing changed until got off the dns.adguard.com private DNS setting from the phone.

    I think this also affected the automated WhatsApp backup but need to verify.

    Clicker trojan infected s8+ via Insights app

    Posted: 29 Aug 2019 04:24 PM PDT

    I just got an alarm notification from my calendar that iPhones were going on sale. I knew I didn't set the reminder so was really confused why my Android was sending me a notification to buy an iphone.

    I ran Malwarebytes and it said my Insights app was infected with a clicker trojan. Googled it and realized how extensive the issue is and how many people are being affected through different apps; wanted to add this one to the list.

    Google Store does have access to your IMEI number

    Posted: 29 Aug 2019 06:44 PM PDT

    As many of you probably already know, there is a class action lawsuit for the Pixel 1 if you had a defective microphone. I had gotten rid of both Pixels and did not have access to the IMEI numbers. However, I did have my order numbers from the Google store.

    If you've purchased a Pixel 1 phone from the Google store directly, they do have access to the IMEI if you provide the order number. I had to ask their chat bot for it 3 different ways, and this seemed to work for me:

    "I am looking for the IMEI number of a device I no longer own. I purchased it for Project Fi from the Google store Order #GS.xxxxx. Can you look up the IMEI for that device?"

    I hope this helps anyone else that wants to file a claim before the Oct 7 deadline.

    Google Home 2.13.50 preps Nest device setup, hints at new 'Mini'

    Why we don't get to see new smartphones with last year processors?

    Posted: 29 Aug 2019 06:14 AM PDT

    I was thinking this morning about the mi 9t and the snapdragon 730 it carries, people compare the power of the 730 with the 845 from last year, just a little bit less power but better battery life (10 nm vs 8 nm).

    So I started wondering, what happend with all the 845 chips that didn't sell? Why we don't get to see mid-range phones with last year flagship processor? I'm kinda curious about that, why there has to be mid range processors for mid range phones, why qualcomm doesn't sell those chip at reduced price? Ik chips innovate every year, but I would gladly pay the price of a mid-range phone for a last year flagship.

    I hope my doubt its well explained, thanks to anybody that can shine some light on it.
