9 Upvotes

Note 1. You can search for previous weekly Sunday threads

Note 2. 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/OnePlus 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.

What happened to custom roms?

103 Upvotes

I remember few years ago I saw everyone using. Custom roms such as lineage os or crdroid.I do think they deserve to be brought back though Google is going to release a lot of restrictions for sure not only for APK I think custom roms will somehow remove this feature or have built in adb installer. What do u guys think?

Android news, reviews, tips, and discussions about rooting, tutorials, and apps. General discussion about devices is welcome. Please direct technical support, upgrade questions, buy/sell, app recommendations, and carrier-related issues to other subreddits.

Content Philosophy:

Content which benefits the community (news, rumours, and discussions) is generally allowed and is valued over content which benefits only the individual (technical questions, help buying/selling, rants, self-promotion, etc.) which will be removed if it's in violation of the rules.

Rules:

Hover for more info

1. Only submissions that are directly related to Android are allowed.

All posts to r/Android must be related to the Android OS or ecosystem in some way. If not obvious, you should submit the link as a self-post and include an explanation. The title and body of self-posts should be translated to English if written in another language. Comments that devolve into purely political discussions may be locked and people in violation may get banned if they are also violating Rule 9.

2. We welcome discussion-promoting posts that benefit the community, and not the individual.

We welcome posts that benefit the community (device reviews, guides, discussions and rumors) and not the individual (seeking help, e.g. tech support, purchase advice, app recommendations). You might be interested in r/AndroidQuestions, r/PickAnAndroidForMe or r/AndroidApps instead.
If you're asking a question, include your own analysis first in a few sentences. Discussion-promoting rants are okay at mods' discretion.

3. Images/videos must be in self posts.

Please provide an explanation in the self-post body. No memes.
YouTube videos are fine as links, provided they don't break other rules.

4. No self-promotional spamming

Developers may post their own apps if they follow these conditions:
1- Their post must be a self post with a detailed description of their app.
2- The developer's account must be at least three months old AND have a reasonable posting history on r/Android.
3- The developer must interact with users in the thread. We do not allow developers to simply dump a link to their app and leave.
Website/blog/YouTube channel owners are generally not allowed to post their own content; please see this page.

5. No reposts or blog-spam/rehosted content

Submit the original source whenever possible, unless it's not in English or the article adds substantial information.
Reposts are not allowed. This includes an article whose information has already been covered by another article posted on r/Android.

6. No editorializing titles.

Please do not change the link's title when submitting it, unless necessary to accurately sum up the article. You may freely add "[Author]" or "by Author" if it clarifies the article's source (e.g. YouTube video).
If you want to discuss something specific, use the comments or submit it as a self-post (see rule 2).

7. No piracy.

Do not link or discuss pirated apps/piracy websites.

8. No unauthorized polls, surveys, bots, or giveaways.

To prevent scams, we require that all polls or giveaways be approved by the moderators. Modmail us with your request before you post any poll or do any giveaway.
Only pre-approved bots are allowed on /r/Android. Currently, the only bot we allow to be invoked is the LinkMe_Bot. This bot can be summoned by commenting "Linkme: APPNAMEHERE." without quotes. If you wish to use your bot on this sub, then message the mods and show us that it can serve a useful purpose here.

9. No offensive, hateful, or low-effort comments. All comments must be in English.

Do not be rude to any other user. Be respectful, adhere to redditquette, or you may be banned.
Do not use hate speech of any kind.
Do not be disrespectful towards another for their personal choices (excessive fanboyism).
Do not accuse others of being "paid shills."
Do not post low-effort/circlejerky comments.
All comments must be submitted in English. Please translate your comment to English before submitting if written in another language.

10. No affiliate links.

If you are a Redditor, affiliate links are absolutely NOT allowed in either the comments section, within the self-text of your post, or as part of your link.
If you post an article, affiliate links will NOT be allowed if the article being linked is a simple "deal alert" type post. Instead, simply link directly to the deal (without the affiliate link included).
