I love sideloading modded versions of apps with all paid features unlocked
There’s no payment methods or options in where I live , so I relied for a long time on modded apps , until I got to know FOSS softwares which mostly have free good alternatives , since that time, my reliance on modified programs has become almost non-existent
Any recommendable and trustworthy sources for modded APKs? Installing modded apps from unknown sources always feels a bit sketchy…
I’m guessing if I say one I’ll get banned from here so idk if I’m allowed to say
MaterialYou apps are so nice looking but every time I use one of them it frustrate me so much when scrolling because scrolling is too slow compared to other apps
I hate Xiaomi’s bloatware so much
I thought about it but I have Android 10 , from what I understand, I’ll have to redo it periodically… I also don’t own a computer so far
For the case for my poco x3 I only debloated once when I got my phone and it remain bloatware free ever since.
Is your device supported by DivestOS? https://divestos.org/pages/devices
It’s really getting in the way. I got a Xiaomi’s as a backup phone recently because on paper the specs were good. Well, the phone is fast, but the UI…
I got a Motorola next, probably going to resell the Xiaomi once I’m done migrating
HyperOS?
My phone runs MIUI 11 and I honestly found it very good , I had more problems with MIUI Battery optimization though , and battery draining to some extent
It’s probably the first and the last Xiaomi phone I’ll ever buy though
I only buy Xiaomi phones because the bootloader is unlockable. The stock UI is eh.
I have a Realme phone and it came with so much bloatware that I can’t tell. Dozens and dozens of purely unwanted apps that I had to disable almost all of them to get a decent experience.
Have you tried the Universal Android Debloater?
Doesn’t it use adb to uninstall/disable unwanted packages? It is manually doable as well, just takes more time via the terminal.
I’m frustrated with the lack of sdcard options in upper midrange smartphones.
If you get a midrange smartphone you either compromise on processor, ram, storage or a combination of other.
I want a good quality smartphone which has 45w of minimum fast charging, UFS 3.1 256GB of minimum. 12GB ram, snapdragon 7+gen 2, or dimensity 8300 at minimum. And provides an sdcard option.
Is it that hard for brands to do that?
Nothing phone 2 and 2a would’ve been decent. If they had an sdcard option. Alas, they skipped it for some reason…
Hello,
Could you please maybe pin this thread to keep it visible for the rest of the week?
Thanks!
Seems like as your account is not local, the pin didn’t go through

Nothing skipped on the SD card for no reason. Their cheaper CMF Phone ships with SD card support, though still not with a 3.5mm jack.
I think it is because Nothing has couple of wireless earbuds in the market already and they really want people to purchase them. A 3.5mm jack will stymie that.
Curiously, their Nothing Buds support the LDAC codec(though few phones outside Sony do) but many more expensive wireless versions(looks at Sennheiser) don’t.
Nothing skipped on the SD card for no reason.
I wouldn’t say no reason. It’s to make more money by forcing you to pay for more onboard storage, the same as any other manufacturer. Others, like Google, have an even clearer incentive to kill the SD card as it threatens the cloud storage subscription they want you to pay an ongoing fee for.
I really don’t know why big companies like Google are terrified to make options.
You made the quick settings show only 4 options immediately. Your research might show that 70% of people prefer it that why. Instead of leaving the 30% in the dust, why not just make it an option in settings? Or even have custom layouts?
Why not add more lock screen options? Why not add options for the navigation pill? Why not make “at a glance” an option?
Even iOS is catching up in terms of customization and at this point I’d say it’s surpassed Android. I still prefer Android for many other reasons, but it has lost one of its main qualities.
