A lot of people are saying they suffer the same and me and my friend have completely different devices with different Android flavours.

It doesn’t seem to be what you are saying.

Android 13. Looking in the other replies, it seems pretty wide spread.

Yep, I have it on my Poco F5 with MIUI and a friend that has a Galaxy S23 with stock OS also has the same issue.

Sure, they just need to fix their annoying bugs on Android.

Everytime I leave a tab open and switch to another app, it’s a 50/50 whether I return to a black screen and am forced to restart it or it just works fine.

I’m using right now a Poco F5 with a 7+ gen 2 and, besides gpu intensive stuff (playing Genshin Impact on lowest settings doesn’t always give 60fps), I can’t tell the difference from more powerful phones.

I believe the reason they do this is because some resellers were unlocking the bootloader and installing a ROM with malware and selling that off to unsuspecting customers. This delay (and needing to be registered with a phone number) makes that process both impractical and easy to detect.

This is true, but also really stupid. The resellers that insert malicious roms into their phones always manage to get a privileged account from someone at Xiaomi that allows for instant bootloader unlock, so only legit customers get screwed by this.

It’s a bit shitty, but it still works. You need to link your Xiaomi account with Mi Unlocker in the dev settings and then wait from 3 days to 1 month.

But since I do that when I first get the phone, by the time I want to install a custom rom, it’s ready.

I was under the impression that was only for the Xiaomi.EU rom.

I’m not really into photographing, so I’m not into that a lot.

For regular photos without gcam, you can check the ones in the article.

I bought this phone and have no regrets.

The only thing lacking a bit for me is the software, but I’m just waiting for an official custom recovery and I’ll install a pixel-like rom.

What you are talking about is the operating system, not the cpu.

The ARM architecture allows much more performance for less power when compared to AMD64, because it runs simpler instructions.

The change to ARM chips on laptops will not make them work like phones, with the exception of much better standby.

High price/performance, constant random hardware issues (on the previous generation the lens glass would shatter because who would have thought glass on metal contact is a bad idea), and a new software bug every two months that drains your battery and fucks something else.

companies like Fairphone and Framework and system76 have proven that it’s possible to support devices for a very long time when the bigger manufacturers told us it wasn’t possible, or even if it were possible that there was no market demand for seven years of software support. In 2016, sustainability and longevity were not words associated with new tech. They showed us the way.

I didn’t see the video with that much attention, but I’m pretty sure at some point he said something along these lines.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t work in Beehaw.

And the important thing to understand about american libertarians is they are largely fascists.

So let me get this straight, the people that are always complaining that the government should have less power and interference into people’s lives and want guns for regular people in case the government starts oppressing them are aligned with… checks wikipedia “a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.”?

I don’t agree with the libertarian view and think it’s way too ignorant of the nature of Man and society, but I think that in your ramble of buzzwords you just created a very cute incoherent contradiction.

Bold of you to assume that that screen is gonna last 7 years.

Update: Moving form Zen to regular 6.5.4 kernel greatly reduced the number and intensity of crackles. Unfortunatly, moving from regular to 6.1 lts remained with the same reduced crackles.

That might actually be related, because I’m also using the zen-kernel.

I’ll try with the regular and lts ones and report back.

Thanks!
