My moto g84 has most of that I think. The only things that let it down are the mediocre camera and the speaker volume that jumps from just a little too quiet to rather loud. For $AU300 I’m quite happy.

I’m using Fing 10.3.0 - a version before it was enshittified. Not sure where I got the apk from.

I don’t update apps until they break. Never know when an update is going to enshittify an app. (Fing, etc.)

On the plus side, #5 can relax at last.

It is, but if you’re in transit, watching on a potato phone or have bad eyesight it might be hard to read the word SmartyKat.

Not fully as I don’t really understand it.

The calculator on that page says I would owe them $17k if I purchase a $500k property.

In Australia we lose about six months wages to ‘stamp duty’ if we move. Better to stick with the oversized shell.

Fellow g84 user here. Almost a perfect phone.

Dual sim. Call recording. Stereo speakers. Loud enough. Oled screen. (slight tint.) Headphone jack 5Ah battery Super light phone. 5G. 12 gigs ram. FM radio with some reception sans cable. Soft rear cover.

Biggest downside is the camera as there’s no optical zoom / telephoto lens. Also if you take a photo in low light and leave the camera app straight after taking it, it’s gone.

For $AU299 it’s hard to beat.

Thanks for your feedback.

The rubber boots on the end of the original pumps tended to crack eventually and the hum could get annoying. The rotary one is near silent but might be a little under powered for the height of the column.

Funny that you don’t seem to see things like this around any more. Maybe smart phones etc have taken their place, but there’s something organic about this type of thing.

OK, so we just need to make a Firefox that runs inside Chrome :)

I wonder if the concern is that unlocking the phone might allow you to run some form of data recovery on it and thus obtain access to some of the previous owner’s info?

Sure.

I’m using a cheapo Antsig smart IR thing instead of my phone. They seem to work with most things I’ve tried to pair them with.

I know it’s not what you’re asking for really, but might be a useful option depending on your use case.

I use them to control the aircon, tv (on / off / aspect reset etc) and stereo volume.

Last time I tried to find a decent universal IR app on the play store, they all seemed to suck. Mind you, that was for my note 3 a few months ago.

Great :)

Now do macropods!

(that’s Kangaroos etc.)

Hehe. I won’t even get on a plane. If she can’t go with me, I’m not going.

I think I prefer that my dog dies before I do. Being a King Charles spaniel it’ll probably just sit by my rotting corpse until it dies from hunger.

Swype is not listed in this document.

I didn’t read far enough to see if it only affected pinyin (Chinese) cloud features or all languages.

Article too wide to fit on my phone screen.

One is always lower than the other.

Would the Rockbox firmware be an improvement?
