Apps and more (sms, wifi networks, bluetooth devices), free and open source: https://github.com/NeoApplications/Neo-Backup

Very impressive, even if broken on high refresh rate devices.

Next time you can save yourself a reset by using adb.

1. connect to watch over adb (usb or wireless)
2. run adb shell "pm clear com.google.android.gms && reboot"
3. wait a few minutes (might not be necessary, but I found it increases success rate)
4. run adb shell "am start -a android.bluetooth.adapter.action.REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE"
5. pair new device in companion app (I reset the app for good measure, don’t know if it’s needed)

Also on my device (oppo watch), play integrity doesn’t seem to matter. Some of the time I’m only passing basic and watch works perfectly.

Awesome files app - Material Files provides a save as share option. GitHub, F-Droid

Also there’s are multiple dedicated save as apps (not in a specific order):

• https://f-droid.org/pl/packages/xyz.myachin.saveto/
• https://f-droid.org/pl/packages/name.lmj001.savetodevice/
• https://f-droid.org/pl/packages/com.mateusrodcosta.apps.share2storage/

Pairdrop is probably a miracle tool for me. Just open the website and send files or text, no configuration, no fuss and it even works outside of the local network.

One day I’ll finally set up my own server, but that’s just for the fun of it. One hosted at https://pairdrop.net is super solid and I can’t remember it failing me.

I think android has this built-in. On mine it’s in Security & Privacy -> More security & privacy -> App pinning

…or maybe it’s just a custom rom thing (crDroid 10.4, Android 14).

Neo-Backup with special backups enabled can do that and much more. Works well with synchronization tools. Root required.

Since you mentioned it, there’s a fork of AntennaPod with a more modern look: https://github.com/XilinJia/Podcini

Oh, that works. Never noticed that.

Neo Backup with special backups (SMS, wifi passwords, wallpaper) enabled. One downside is root requirement.

jtxBoard, open source, syncs over caldav (works great with Zanshin) and has very active developer.

Additional it supports Material You and has included notes and journal support. Oh, did I mention it’s free?

Good to know, but for now it seems like the issue solved itself. Will report later if anything changes.

I don’t know. If I use chrome on the same device there are no issues. You can’t be certain but I think it’s not DNS.

Sorry to hijack, but can anyone help me with my issue?

I’m using librewolf and since about a week or two I noticed a speed issue. Overall my internet is fast, way faster then I need in fact, but websites load at a unreasonably slow speed.

When opening anything librewolf just sits there loading for a few second (probably up to ~10) then page opens fine. Video playback works great too. What could be the issue?

Sorry to hijack, but does someone have a link to the talk? Article mentions it, but link no longer works.

There are already several opinions about rooting, so I’m not entering that discussion, but I can share my view of ACC and AccA.

I’m the kind of person, who charges the phone over the night. My device theoretically supports 33W charging (can’t test this as I don’t have the stock charger), but when charging over the course of several hours I don’t need this speed.

I have the current limit set to 750mA and max charge in range of 90-95%. This works fine for me and in case I need a quick top-up there’s always Charge once to #%, without restrictions option.

I know it’s not your main point, but speed does matter, at least for some users.

It’s not often, but I regularly have to move relatively large amounts of data (20-40GB) between my phone and pc, sometimes (but not always ) in small batches (~4GB) with a ~10min breaks between to check stuff.

With this process already annoying because of MTP and the way windows file transfers work (no resume/retry over MTP, linux handles it way better) having a high speed connection make it a bit more manageable.

It’s a niche use-case, not very important, but it’s something I wanted to share.

3.25TB (2TB+1TB HDD with 256GB NVMe) locally with another 2TB mounted over the network and used as a media server. Games take up a relatively small amount of space in my setup as I try to keep them all on one 1TB drive (and it’s note even full) and I’m not playing much AAA games.

Most of my stuff in multimedia (photos, videos, uncompressed audio recordings) and backups (I had to upgrade it’s drive recently as I went over the 500GB and I didn’t want to store data over multiple drives)
