Kennt jemand das #CustomROM#LMODroid bzw #LibreMobileOS?
Anscheinend basiert das auf #LineageOS und bietet Updates für Geräte, welche bei LOS gar nicht mehr gelistet sind.
Hat das jemand in Verwendung oder kann mehr dazu sagen?
I just updated my old (backup) OnePlus 5 from Android 13 (Lineage 20) to Android 14 (Lineage 21). Everything went smoothly. Nice work, #lineageos developers!
Then I opened an app and discover Ingress no longer works. Not the fault of Lineage, just Niantic being Niantic.
my #iphone6 smashed on the floor. touchscreen is slowly degrading; some letters impossible to type; and some buttons impossible to click...
Starting to think i have reached my limit... (cc @limitesnumeriques )
@marieverdeil i'd look for something like a oneplus 6 or oneplus 6t. you should be able to find it used for an ok price, it has quite decent hardware, and was / is widely used, so there's a bit of momentum around it regarding driver support and stuff like that.
also, it's common to need to ask for vendor-approval to unlock your phone when installing other operating systems. this can get icky and annoying for various reasons. that's not the case with these models, you can just unlock it yourself.
Got this message from #slack:
> Our records indicate that your mobile device uses a mobile OS version that Slack will stop supporting after September. For the best experience and to continue receiving regular updates [..], we strongly recommend updating your mobile OS as soon as possible.
@ian ehehe, I would happily upgrade to PHP v8.x from 5.6 😂
Yes, I got confirmation from the maintainer and other people using the latest releases about that the new A11 is heavier on that phone.
I might test the A12 and A13 tho, maybe those will get more stable by September 🤞
I came across this charming car with a cherry blossom design in the heart of Carroll Gardens in Brooklyn, New York CIty. The find was fitting since there were many cherry blossom trees in the area when I stumbled upon the car on April 23, 2024.
📲 Müssen unter Android Standortdienste aktiviert sein, um sich automatisch mit dem WLAN zu verbinden?
...anscheinend ja: mir ist aufgefallen, dass nach dem Hochfahren des Geräts immer mobile Daten aktiv sind und das WLAN immer händisch aktiviert werden muss.
In den Einstellungen des Netzwerks (unser Wlan) ist "automatische Verbindung" aktiviert, in den allgemeinen Netzwerkeinstellungen lässt sich "WLAN automatisch aktivieren" jedoch nicht einstellen, es ist "nicht verfügbar, weil die Einstellung Standort deaktiviert ist. Aktiviere die Einstellung Standort."
"Auf Wunsch lässt sich WLAN automatisch aktivieren, sobald wird in Reichweite des Routers kommen. Das ganze funktioniert aber nicht durch das Scannen nach WLAN-Netzwerken, sondern über die Standortdienste. Für jede WLAN-Verbindung wird auch der dazugehörige Standort gespeichert. Befinden wir uns im Radius eines Standortes, wird WLAN automatisch aktiviert, sofern die Signalstärke des WLANs ausreichend ist.
Damit die Option "WLAN automatisch aktivieren" genutzt werden kann, muss auch die Standort-Funktion aktiv sein."
Gibt es da wirklich keine Option, sich automatisch mit seinem WLAN zu verbinden, ohne die Standortdienste zu aktivieren? (die ich aus #Privacy -Gründen möglichst nicht aktivieren möchte und ansonsten auch nicht brauche)
@wolf ja, danke, muss ich mir mal genauer anschauen, hatte es aber so verstanden, dass die auch über die Standortdienste funktionieren (wobei zumindest WifiAutomatic keine Berechtigung für den Standort erfordert (Wifi Manager schon) @kuketzblog@datenschutz
@kuketzblog danke @wolf , also mit WifiAutomatic scheint es zu funktionieren
Zwar sind die Optionen etwas begrenzt und auch etwas seltsam (warum sollte etwa beim Laden das Wlan eingeschaltet werden? 🤔 oder alle 2 Stunden? )
... aber wenn ich das Wlan ausschalte, dann auf Standby und dann entsperre, wird es wieder eingeschaltet. Scheint also soweit zu funktionieren.
Den "Smarter Wifi Manager" konnte ich nicht installieren. (edit: konnte ihn dann doch installieren, aber sofort kam die Meldung "Diese App möchte Zugriff auf deinen Standort haben" > wieder deinstalliert)
Es gab auch mal wifi Manager, mit denen man genauer einstellen konnte, z.B. bestimmte Netzwerke whitelisten. Aber die Apps aus diesem Bereich in #Fdroid sind zum Großteil nicht gerade aktuell: android.izzysoft.de/applists/c… @datenschutz
I've wondered for years why I couldn't send emoji in text messages (MMS).
Quite by accident, I've discovered that, all this time, I could. All I had to do was press, and hold, the enter button on the AOSP keyboard. This raises the emoji selector.
I've been meaning to cut down my power usage without disrupting my lifestyle too much, the first thought is for me to "decommission" my HTPC which I keep running all day, asleep at best, just so it's ready for me when I want to sleep and need it to watch #YouTube (so I can get to sleep lol).
The "easiest" replacement is get an #ARM based computer to take over its job. My first thought it should run on #Linux just bcos I'm most familiar with it and it's an open ecosystem so I should be able to do a ton of things w it - but I only have a Pi 4 and that thing honestly sucks at streaming so nope. Tried #LineageOS on it to get it running #Android TV and while at first it seemed great, it ended up being quite a hassle and a mess so I ditched that.
Then my dad asked me to get an Android TV box/stick for his TV, and I got him the #Xiaomi Mi Box S (2nd gen). After I set it up and used it for a bit, I honestly kinda liked it. Tried #Plex, #Netflix, #PrimeVideo, etc. and they all ran great. The only downside I thought to this option is that I won't be able to watch YouTube with adblockers like I could with something like #Firefox on a desktop.
THEN I quickly discovered the existence of #SmartTube and GOD what a lifesaver it's been. It works just like the official YouTube client with all the pages and algos you're familiar with when you've authenticated, it blocks YouTube ads, but also it supports #SponsorBlock right out of the box without needing to self-host or wtv so it could even block sponsor segments in video if you want. Even has some nice accessibility options too like changing the subtitle colours, size, and positioning which is great for me who watches vids in bed w no audio.
This rant ended up being very long unnecessarily lol but all in all, that removed the only dealbreaker for me on getting and using said TV box for myself - so I did and have been using for abt a week now. The box turns itself and my TV off automatically after 30 mins of inactivity and I can easily turn the box and the TV back on using just my remote which is nice. Idek what'd I need the HTPC for anymore honestly since I already have a #SteamDeck to take over its job gaming wise much, much earlier.
We already knew that the $199 Rabbit R1 had the specs of a budget Android smartphone and ran a basic version of Android (with a custom Launcher that mostly interacts with Rabbit's cloud services). Now someone has ported LineageOS to run near-stock Android on the R1. https://buff.ly/4b8gbUn#RabbitR1#Android#LineageOS#CouldHaveBeenAnApp
I'm sad, my phone isn't supported anymore by #LineageOs, it's a #OnePlus3T 2016. The provided drivers for Linux are for 3.8 kernels and Lineage 19 only support > 4.x branch. I'm using the #MicroG build, I have just seen that even the archives has been dropped. I might build 18.1 my self to update, the other solution is to used /E/ which have community build for this device. Anyway we really need to force manufacturer to release sources and documentation for hardware ...
i am using #Osmand for #navigation. the #f-droid version. i was so lucky with it, a long while it ran great on my old #samsung#galaxy#s5 on #lineageOS but now the crashes are back and its unusable again which it was several (partly very long) periods in the past. i don't know what they are doing that its such a pain in the ass; maybe they have problems to do a good memory management. i am very sad, because i love that app and its plugins. it nearly is able to do everything you would like to do with such an app. when it runs. now i'll try it with #organicmaps. seems to be spartan but stable. and it has no trackers. if you have any further ideas, you are welcome.
[#android] I was looking for a way to sandbox a proprietary app on Android/LineageOS, and prevent it from running when I'm not actively using it. I found this one: Shelter https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.typeblog.shelter/ It abuses Work Profiles to stash the designated apps and run them only when desired. Nice when #GrapheneOS is not an option
OK, have to admit, switching to nationwide is quite a bit more hassle than switching to other banks.
I have modified the CSS for online banking with nationwide to make it better on my poor eyes. And yes, the look of the site is also how it looks behind the scenes. The code is a disaster.
Logging in is SO much simpler than Halifax, and the phone app is awesome and not randomly blocked because of #lineageos. Really liking it so far.
