As of September 2026, it will no longer be possible to develop apps for the #Android platform without first registering centrally with #Google. This matters to you if you use or are dependent on the #Android

#androiddev is there any place where I could ask some Google dev about WorkManager's behaviour on Android 15 ? We're having some issues related to background network access (https://

While minor, it's irritating. For some reason my Pixel Phone, Android 16, at random intervals changes my wallpaper. Why? Is there some shortcut/swipe that does this? Is it malice? Is it a "feature"?
Inquiring minds want to know.

TIL:
If you set a timer on your #GrapheneOS (and most likely on any #android device?) because you're baking bread and don't want it to come out as a lumo of coal... And while the timer ticks down GrapheneOS decides to do a casual update and then auto-reboots... The timer keeps…

If you use an Android phone, which Mastodon client do you use? I currently use Moshidon after trying all the ones I could find a while ago but I'm wondering if I should experiment a bit more.

One of the few advantages is #android has over iOS is going away unless we make noise. Guess this is my last Pixel.

I've somehow managed to get the Android Studio ide bits to find all the imported packages/classes but the compiler can't. Aka the exact opposite of how life in Eclipse went 20 years ago. Such a troubling toolchain.

@… I've love to get your take if running Android Auto on GrapheneOS protects us from this data gathering?

A long press on the power button instead of showing a shut-down confirmation now opens a shit-widget and turns the mic on.

Ok ... Als iemand oooooit nog eens de pincode van zn simkaart wil wijzigen, moet ie niet zoeken naar 'pincode simkaart wijzigen' in de instellingen of op Internet, maar bij zn instellingen op 'simlock'.
🤬🤬🤬🙈
#Android natuurlijk. Ik verwacht dat anderen dat een stuk logischer hebnen opgelost.
Ja .. Tis dus uiteindelijk wel gelukt.

Was für einen Android-Client verwendet man eigentlich für Mastodon?

I like that @… works on my laptop and on my iPad (it is a great app) but I wish it worked on my #Android phone.

Die #Autokorrekur von #Android schlägt mir grade vor, aus "Fuckup" ein "Fickpartner" zu machen. 😳

Geen idee welke gek verzonnen heeft dat zoiets niet bij de instellingen van een simkaart hoeft te ataan, of tenminste een verwijzing boj die instellingen.
Onder t kopje 'simlock aan of uit' ga je dat acht nooit zoeken.

#Google #Android Recorder telling me not to spy on people. Funny.

do you like to develop on #android and sideload your APK freely on devices you own? https://github.com/sam1am/anyapk

I feel like desktop GNU/Linux nowadays (especially around #GNOME) is a lot like: "Do you recall this thing #Android does that you really hate? Good news, everyone, we just copied it to our application, and you can't switch back!"

Edit: thanks to @…, figured out the Musicolet button(s) to turn off auto-repeat on full albums. It's because they call them queues.

I watched a video this morning while I ate my breakfast where they were talking about emulation on the AYN Odin 3. It looked impressive. I'm not sure that it was impressive enough to justify spending $500 but it looked impressive.

Just a friendly reminder to everyone on the #fediverse that your phone is basically a tiny computer. Consider turning it off more often, like me. I typically switch mine off for about 1 hour, once to twice a month.

Just noticed one of my favorite pieces of software ever had a big update after more than 5 years: the #Rockbox media player software! #iPod color, of course, but later on an old #Android phone, a #FiiO M3K and today on a #Surfans F20! Honestly it just can't be beat, software wise, for a media player. 🧵1/2

So new #Android versions support using phone as an USB webcam — something Linux Motorolas had twenty years ago.
I wonder when Google is going to figure out that exposing the mic would be useful too…

Does anyone know how to get a Samsung phone to work with Google Fi's visual voicemail?

Début de l’aventure Murena avec le Fairphone 6 sous /e/OS
