| Xiaomi's New Year gift to Mi A3 users: A software update that bricks their phone Posted: 31 Dec 2020 05:22 AM PST Users of Xiaomi's Mi A3 (its last Android One smartphone) recieved an update for Android 11 today — on New Year's eve — that has ended up hard bricking their phones! Those who were fortunate enough (like myself) were able to pause the update after seeing what happened to others who took the bullet and reported their frustration on the MiA3 subreddit! This isn't the first time Xiaomi has messed up its android software updates. On this very same phone — they once screwed up the fingerprint scanner, broke Dual Sim functionality; all in addition to delivering several other bugs. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Absurd amount of ads in YouTube app Posted: 31 Dec 2020 04:35 AM PST Just now I did a search in the YouTube app, only to be treated by an entire page full of ads before you see a single search result. This is new to me, what the hell? Are they actively trying to drive people to third party apps? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Nova Launcher rebased on the latest Launcher3 Posted: 31 Dec 2020 05:59 AM PST Nova 7 Beta (Available to download from official nova discord) Nova has been rebased on the latest Launcher3 offering from the Android Open Source Project. This means updated visuals and animations and just about every part of Nova's code has changed. Nearly all of Nova's extensive customization has been brought along for the ride and updated to match, enjoy the new folder opening animation with any of Nova's folder customziation options such as immersive windows or different icon layouts. Some configuration options have been dropped such as the card background and horizontal app drawer styles. Feedback is welcome on this.

| Protip: press and hold in Google camera to activate lens. Posted: 31 Dec 2020 09:16 AM PST Discovered on Pixel 5. If you press and hold like you would tap to focus in Google camera., you will activate Google lens. Works well to save a few clicks. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Why don't more brands use stock Android? Posted: 31 Dec 2020 06:42 AM PST Why does almost every single company feel the need to develop their own skin on top of Google's AOSP releases? It's been clear for a few years now that phones with stock Android consistently get atleast 1 if not 2 years of updates while most phones with proprietary skins (Samsung's touch wiz, or one ui, MiUI, and others) are almost never updated. So if it is indeed cheaper to just use stock Android in terms of updates etc, why are companies going out of their way to development their own skins at their own expense? [link] [comments]  |
