Posted: 31 Jan 2021 04:00 AM PST

Note 1. Join our IRC, and Telegram chat-rooms! Please see our wiki for instructions.

This weekly Sunday thread is for you to let off some steam and speak out about whatever complaint you might have about:

Your device.
Your carrier.
Your device's manufacturer.
An app
Any other company

Rules

1) Please do not target any individuals or try to name/shame any individual. If you hate Google/Samsung/HTC etc. for one thing that is fine, but do not be rude to an individual app developer.

2) If you have a suggestion to solve another user's issue, please leave a comment but be sure it's constructive! We do not want any flame-wars.

3) Be respectful of other's opinions. Even if you feel that somebody is "wrong" you don't have to go out of your way to prove them wrong. Disagree politely, and move on.

Disable Accessibility!!! Fixes the Kishi (or other gamepads/Bluetooth controllers) not working on Android 11 issue!!!

Yesssss

For me it was disabling Control Center. To confirm, I turned it back on, and my kishi didn't work. Turned it off, it worked.

Now it works across all my streaming apps, gamepass, Xbox remote play, Psplay etc!!!
