I hate Xiaomi’s bloatware so much
I only buy Xiaomi phones because the bootloader is unlockable. The stock UI is eh.
I thought about it but I have Android 10 , from what I understand, I’ll have to redo it periodically… I also don’t own a computer so far
For the case for my poco x3 I only debloated once when I got my phone and it remain bloatware free ever since.
It’s really getting in the way. I got a Xiaomi’s as a backup phone recently because on paper the specs were good. Well, the phone is fast, but the UI…
I got a Motorola next, probably going to resell the Xiaomi once I’m done migrating
HyperOS?
My phone runs MIUI 11 and I honestly found it very good , I had more problems with MIUI Battery optimization though , and battery draining to some extent
It’s probably the first and the last Xiaomi phone I’ll ever buy though
Is your device supported by DivestOS? https://divestos.org/pages/devices
Why don’t 3rd launchers not support native gestures yet? Why does Google refuse to fix that?
I have a similar question, how is that 3rd party launchers users do not know or not care about this?
I genuinely envy them lol.
So far the only way that this has been fixed is with a custom ROM (using their own custom launcher which is average at best) or using Lawnchair with QuickSwitch (requires root, and it is like the best shot you have to have smooth animations with a more customized launcher).
I’m one such user. I notice the less smooth animations and the lack of App opening animations with them daily.
The reason I still use Smart Launcher is because of its amazing auto app categories, and smart search which is unrivaled by the system launcher.
Not to mention the aesthetics and blurred widgets.
I have been using 3rd party launchers for 5 years now. I can’t stand the jerky animations. I always go back to using navigation buttons.
Because google like all things google does not bother. I mean why would they if things are going just as well. Not like you and I are going to switch to a rival OS without google services.
I’m frustrated with the lack of sdcard options in upper midrange smartphones.
If you get a midrange smartphone you either compromise on processor, ram, storage or a combination of other.
I want a good quality smartphone which has 45w of minimum fast charging, UFS 3.1 256GB of minimum. 12GB ram, snapdragon 7+gen 2, or dimensity 8300 at minimum. And provides an sdcard option.
Is it that hard for brands to do that?
Nothing phone 2 and 2a would’ve been decent. If they had an sdcard option. Alas, they skipped it for some reason…
Nothing skipped on the SD card for no reason. Their cheaper CMF Phone ships with SD card support, though still not with a 3.5mm jack.
I think it is because Nothing has couple of wireless earbuds in the market already and they really want people to purchase them. A 3.5mm jack will stymie that.
Curiously, their Nothing Buds support the LDAC codec(though few phones outside Sony do) but many more expensive wireless versions(looks at Sennheiser) don’t.
Hello,
Could you please maybe pin this thread to keep it visible for the rest of the week?
Thanks!
Seems like as your account is not local, the pin didn’t go through

I love sideloading modded versions of apps with all paid features unlocked
There’s no payment methods or options in where I live , so I relied for a long time on modded apps , until I got to know FOSS softwares which mostly have free good alternatives , since that time, my reliance on modified programs has become almost non-existent
To me , firefox and its android forks have nothing to offer other than ublock and extensions support in general, but only a few of these extensions are reviewed by Mozilla so if I needed another extension that is essential to my browsing but it’s not reviewed… I’ll have to ignore the voice in my mind that asks me " Are you sure the extension you installed can’t see your password while you’re typing it ? " … But I’ll give it another opportunity and try waterfox again
