| Why has Google not implemented a backup solution like Titanium Backup or Nandroid? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 10:19 PM PDT It seems like it would be a good feature, backing up snapshots of your phone's data and OS on local storage or the cloud. Maybe the more problematic options could be hidden behind a dev menu... [link] [comments] | ||

| What happened to keyboard inserts in Android 11? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 03:50 PM PDT The single time I have seen them used is in a demo for a new version of flutter. Even Android Messages doesn't support. What's going on? Have any of you guys had a single app support it yet? Quick reminder for those that forgot, keyboard inserts allowed apps to use a new way to have the system virtual keyboard to pop up in your app. The new way added a smooth animation. You can view the animation here. [link] [comments] | ||
| Which phone has a great camera "if you know how to use it"? Posted: 09 Oct 2020 04:46 PM PDT I dusted off my old LG G4 recently and decided to play with its camera a bit. I am still amazed by how good G4's interface is. Manual controls are excellent! And give you control over pretty much anything you would need. There is no HDR or any unnatural processing on the phone. I love that it lets you pick white balance; I like to make images a bit warmer looking. And what's amazing is that all of these changes are real time so you can see what you are changing exactly. It does not have any intelligent bracketing or AI tricks; with night shots and long exposure you will need a tripod. The sensor is very good though and with full manual controls, if you know how to use them, you will get an output of very nice, pleasant images that will easily rival and even beat modern smartphones. I compared it to my Pixel and while Pixel tries to get the most mathematically correct images and tries to destroy shadows and bring light where it's not supposed to be, even at the expense of lots of noise and grain, LG G4 clips and crashes shadows, but produces more "photographic" images. If you give to a person who has no clue how to use it and does not put in the effort, Pixel will absolutely "autoperform" it. But otherwise, LG G4 will easily give modern smartphones a run for their money. What other camerasphones do you know or have that fit the category of "if you know how to use it, it's amazing!"? Here are some examples... Note: pairs 1 and 2 are cropped for privacy, but otherwise are unaltered in any way. Pair 3 is unaltered. [link] [comments] | ||

| Split Screen - common use case Posted: 09 Oct 2020 08:24 PM PDT I recently came across split screen feature on my Samsung note. ( I know this feature has been out for a while). I found it super useful while driving, keeping Maps and Spotify open at the same time. Just curious, what are some of the common use case for split screen? Do you guys use this for multitasking- like improving personal productivity or more for entertainment - Youtube plus browsing? [link] [comments] | ||

| The new Android recents tab is a waste of real-estate Posted: 09 Oct 2020 10:43 AM PDT The new recents tab (which was introduced with Pie I think) is a complete waste of the mobile screen. Newer phones have so much space that showing an overview of just one app is like actually using that app. Scrolling to the desired app is also a pain as the overview locks to one app so You have to scroll painfully slowly. Recents style that makes sense are:
May be there are other android skins that have Better Recents tab that I may not have experienced but I am sure there is none worse than the current stock Android's implementation. [link] [comments] | ||
