Are there any apps to block trackers etc.. For apps? For example the "I don't care about cookies" extension or Ghostery for Firefox and Chrome. I use mullvad DNS but is there anything like those above for apps that can reject all cookies automatically, or block them? The amount of cookies to deny in just the app in the video alone is crazy ([video attached](https://streamain.com/Dprvo3c7JFTAhj0/watch)).

Does anyone happen to know the reset network connections script or command that runs when I hit the network reset button? Or how I can achieve a similar result?

This is a regional release from the brand apparently for Nigerian market only which explains the fact that despite having decent specs( things like 90W charging, 8 GB RAM and 144 Hz high PWM dimming display), it is a 4G phone only. Though it is gimmicky in some respects. It has a SpO2 sensor apparently built into the back but skips out on basic things like micro SD or 3.5 mm jack (but hey, they do give free USB C headphones; now I can switch from Sennheiser's IE 600 to an upgraded variant :p).

It is designed as a powerful alternative to the default Phone app with a modular, scalable architecture and production-grade call handling.

They really didn't have to redesign a text box. Please stop reinventing the wheel. I don't need another pop up in my life.

If I toggle it on and off it'll actually stay off for a day or two but it always comes back. I'm on a Galaxy S20 Android 13 I believe.

I connected to airport's Wi-Fi and this symbol popped up on the corner of the Wi-Fi symbol?

It frequently marks the text as red in my native language but never in English (unless there is a real error in the text). Anybody know why? See image below...

I'm looking for an upgrade on my CDMA carrier in the US and it really seems like my only options are Samsung, Pixle, Motorola, or IOS. Am I missing something or do companies just not support this technology? I got excited about the zenphone 10, but it looks like it is GSM only.

I've posted on here a long time ago about [RTranslator](https://github.com/niedev/RTranslator), which is a phenomenal, real-time translation app for conversations. It's a beautifully designed app that allows for on-device transcription and translation. RTranslator has a few different modes that make it great for bilingual conversations. It can do simple text translations very well, like a handful of other apps. I actually use [this one](https://github.com/DavidVentura/offline-translator) for that purpose because it has system context menus and OCR for image translation. Where RTranslator really shines is in translating live conversations. When it first came out a couple years ago, it felt like sci-fi. You can set it up to walkie-talkie mode, and the phone will automatically detect multiple speakers, identify the language they're speaking, and translate to the other language. If you have TTS enabled on your phone, you can even hear the other half of the conversation (more on that in a moment). The really amazing feature is if you have translator installed on two separate devices, then you can communicate with each other over Bluetooth. Even with your phone in your pocket, you can easily have a complete conversation with another person. Did I mention that it does all of this without *any* internet? When you first set up the app, you'll have to access the internet to download language models, but after that, it never goes online. The file size and processing power might be heavy on older or cheaper phones, but runs smoothly and easily on modern phones (I have a Pixel 7, which is hardly bleeding edge). I like things that happen on-device for privacy purposes, but it's also immediately practical for something like this. If you need on the spot translation, there's a good chance you're traveling and may not have access to reliable (or free) internet. Most Android devices have built-in text-to-speech (TTS). So after you've installed RTranslator and selected your languages to download, then you're good to go. If you're using an alternative OS (like graphene, which I use), then you'll have to select one yourself. Note: I think that Google's TTS also works on device without an internet connection, but I'm not 100% sure. That's where [SherpaTTS](https://github.com/woheller69/ttsEngine) comes in. Like the translator, Sherpa will need some space on your device and uses some processing power (although, the footprint is much smaller). It takes a little bit of time to set up, but most of that time is choosing your selected voice. There are literally hundreds of models to choose from.  You can set it up as your system default TTS, and then select it through the menu or during setup in RTranslator. Now you have modern, offline, live translation almost instantaneously. Both apps are easy to set up and walk you through the process pretty quickly. *All software here mentioned is open source. Some of the models used by this software might be derived from proprietary sources, but the models themselves are considered open source. Nobody asked me to do this, but I like sharing great open source software. Projects like these don't have an advertising budget, and rely on word of mouth.* [RTranslator On GitHub](https://github.com/niedev/RTranslator) [SherpaTTS on F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/de/packages/org.woheller69.ttsengine/) [SherpaTTS on OpenApk](https://www.openapk.net/ttsengine/org.woheller69.ttsengine/) [SherpaTTS on GitHub](https://github.com/woheller69/ttsEngine)

While not seemingly relevant at first glance, turns out they are using Android under the hood Specifically, BlissOS 15 which is Android 12L.

Is there a simple text editor available for Android that doesn't sell my data?

A friend of mine deleted the Mi account associated with his phone, and then tried to reset it. The phone is now blocked with the Mi account... Any ideas on how to unlock the phone?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/21184378 >The longevity of Android updates has always been a problem, but one that’s been getting better with time. Google has, behind the scenes, introduced some big changes for Android manufacturers that will make it easier for more Android phones to offer support for up to 7 years, just like Pixel.

Hopefully this becomes the app that ends this nonsensical "blue bubble" supremacy by iSheep.

As announced in our re-opening post, we will be conducting a community icon/banner contest this weekend. Rules: 1. Top level comments must include either an icon and or banner design, or both. 2. The contest will run until Monday morning. The icon/banner with the highest upvote count (within reason, of course) wins. 3. The icon design must be a square image with or without transparency, preferably 256x256, but other sizes are fine, provided that they are reasonable. 4. We recommend a banner design of 1280x400, but it should be able to go a bit taller, we'll just see how the winning design looks on the site and adjust accordingly. 5. You are allowed to discuss your design in the comments, but you are not allowed to engage in unethical vote manipulation. (Bots and such) 6. AI generated art is allowed, but please also include your prompt settings if the whole or a significant portion of the image is generated. 7. We'll change the design and run another contest whenever we collectively decides that we are bored with the current ones. Make them interesting, and have fun. UPDATE: At 6 upvotes total, @AlmightySnoo has won the icon contest and will have their design be used for our community until we get bored of it. Congratulations! Since there is no banner submission, we will not change out our existing banner this time.

I work at home mainly and would like to be able to play podcasts from my TV (Fire TV). I tried one or two apps from the regular app store and they were crap. I also tried AntennaPod side-loaded but some functions just don't work right. I'm trying to avoid using YouTube as well, plus fuck their dumb ads. Before anyone says, "Use your phone," I try to keep my phone far away while I work to avoid it distracting me. I could use it to play episodes still but then I don't have a remote to pause or skip or adjust volume. Any suggestions?

Recently I have installed lineageOS 20 on my galaxy J7 2015. Everything works properly, but I have no access to my internal storage! File manager only shows the SD cards content and I can not access the internal storage via any apps. Even when I connect my phone to my laptop, the laptop lists only SD card. Also maybe I should mention that in other hand, TWRP only has access to my internal storage and shows the volume of my SD card `0`. What could be the problem?

Hi, I have been using Harmonoid Music Player which includes fetching lyrics directly without any user intervention. Is there any other app like this? I am asking this because this app hasn't received any updates since the last 2 years and I just want a replacement app when it stops fetching the lyrics.

if I buy a pixel 7a within the next 5 days they'll add on top of the 20% off they already offered, a free pair of pixel a-series buds (retail price $100), so I'd get a 33% discount on both items. online reviews say it's compatible with every android device, but Im going to buy this model to delete the software and install either graphene or lineage, so, will these buds work with either OS?

I have a Razr flip phone that I often use folded halfway (laptop style) and watch videos on the top half while I do other things. Certain video apps center the content across both halves of the screen and I have to activate split screen and put a random app on the bottom half of the screen. Long story short, is there a way to split screen only 1 app to only the top half of the screen? I've tried to search for something but I'm coming up empty.

Started first launch on an app I am working and need 20 testers opted in for 14 days to get to play store. If you want to help out, you can join this **[Google Group](https://groups.google.com/g/printnotes-testers)** and click on link to join as **tester** **UPDATE:** Thank you to everyone that joined as a tester, we are on our way for public release on Google Play Store  ___ I wanted a notes app that followed a more similar approach to file managers with folders instead of "notebooks" but also look like google keep as I really like the look, and I started using obsidian and thought it was cool. The closest thing I found to what I liked was [QuillPad](https://github.com/quillpad/quillpad), but the author decided to not go multiplatform, outside of android, so as I just started learning flutter, I decided it would be fun to do it myself. The project is open source on GitHub [here](https://github.com/RoBoT095/printnotes). I hope this isn't too much self-promotion, but I don't know where else I can go except reddit. I want to release on fdroid and ios app store as well, then when I feel the app is good enough for desktop, get out an application for linux, macOS, and windows too

I've been looking for something like the old app making 3D wallpapers from GCam lens blur photos, but found nothing. This is not the same, but it is quite good nonetheless.
