limerod,

I did try bangle.js gadgetbridge from play store and it showed the fit 3 as incompatible.

limerod,

Bummer. Thanks for helping, anyway.

limerod,

If it does, start a new car printing business.

Is Android increasingly inconsistent?

I feel like I’m encountering weird little tics and problems with my android devices, and those of family and friends. Just simple things where settings don’t seem to be consistently applied, or the os switches something back repeatedly. For example, my apps are set to auto update, to use data as well as WiFi, etc, but every...

limerod,

Depends. If you use heavily customized android ROMs with aggressive battery saving measures like colorOS, hyperOS/miui, etc. Things may be a tad rough.

limerod,

The camera should be better. But, what midrange smartphones still provide a headphone Jack? I have all but seen it disappear alongside fading sdcard support.

limerod,

Sony sells their smartphones in limited markets only. Mine is not one.

limerod,

By midrange I meant Something more like A35/A55/M55, etc. So upper midrange hardware. Moto doesn’t include a jack or even expandable storage on edge 40 Neo, edge 40, edge 50 pro.

As for Chinese phones the most prominent even Xiaomi has stopped including them in some of their phones. Not that I want to buy them. My software experience has not been great with Chinese OEMs.

So, if I want good software(Oneui, NothingOS, Moto HelloUI, etc) support and quality my choices are slim to zero.

I have made my peace with wireless unfortunately I don’t want to do the same with micro sdcard. But, even that’s fading in so many phones…

Pixel 3a was so long ago. That was one of the last pixels to include it. They removed the 3.5mm jack after 4a series.

limerod,

Android will continue to support RISC-V. Due to the rapid rate of iteration, we are not ready to provide a single supported image for all vendors. This particular series of patches removes RISC-V support from the Android Generic Kernel Image (GKI).

Basically, they still support it. But, won’t provide a GKI. So, vendors will need to do more work if they intend to run android on a RISC-v CPU.

limerod,

They always remained in the phone business in limited capacity.
