Everything you need to get an ad-free YouTube Music experience on iOS without paying for a subscription, you can sideload custom modified IPA files like YTLitePlus or YouTubeiVanced using tools like Sideloadly, AltStore, or SideStore. With Google locking down, it's crazy to think in 2027 iOS will be able to install files without a pc and android will need a 24 hour wait than a pc adb file load. No waiting time is needed to use ipa files and sideloaded apps on iOS.https://youtu.be/XeYCIqOEWhU?is=Nx5pmESDRd39-hY2

Dumb question bros but I was looking for a phone to buy and thought Xiaomi Poco F8 Ultra would be a good fit for my needs and pricepoint but I don't know if my carrier's e-sim works with it, I dunno how that shit worksI'm in Canada with Telus, will I be able to just transfer my shit to the new phone as is like that
>>109745885>POCO X8 & POCO X8 Pro: These versions strictly use physical Nano-SIM cards and do not support eSIM. >POCO X8 Pro Max: This premium model fully supports eSIM, making it easy to connect to Canadian networks without a physical card. >POCO X8 Power: This newly announced version can handle up to two active eSIM profiles at the same time.
>>109745912Oops wrong letter, X not F.>eSIM Capability: The Global version features eSIM functionality, allowing you to activate digital profiles directly through QR codes or network provider apps in HyperOS.>Canadian 4G & 5G Compatibility: The device includes the primary network bands required across Canada:>4G LTE: Bands B4, B7, B12, B13, B66, and B71>5G Sub-6: Bands n66, n71, n78 (3500 MHz), and n38>Carrier Suitability: It pairs well with major Canadian carriers and their sub-brands (including Rogers, Telus, Bell, and Freedom Mobile), offering proper coverage across urban and rural frequencies.
>>109745929>>Carrier Suitability: It pairs well with major Canadian carriers and their sub-brands (including Rogers, Telus, Bell, and Freedom Mobile)Man, where does it even say stuff like this? When I searched for it it just says Telus doesn't support any non google, samsung or apple crapDo I need to do extra shit to activate it if I get the phone, how does it work? Can I just bring it to one of my carriers shops and they'll just handle that? Thanks for the help btw
Is it still worthwhile to get a OnePlus 15r in North America? It's a shame they're leaving our market... The 12r was my favorite phone
Here's the latest iOS 27 beta with the latest Siri ai VS the latest Gemini ai. You can use the link to watch the video to see the before and after results and it's not even close the new Siri AI beats the Gemini AI in photo and video editing. Google messed up the parking lot lines for the parking spaces, it also messed up the guy's eyes when removing glasses, it also messed up removing his hand holding the laptop and finally it was not able to remove the entire shelf against the wall. https://youtu.be/d5wocIfmNbM?is=pe-m70UutkI313Tp
>>109745820You can use Sai paired with Shizuku to install unsigned APK's, even after the supposed, "locking down". Both apps are signed and available on the Google App Store and so are easy to install.
>>109746031for now......
>>109745954Yeah you'll need your ID if you don't have an active SIM utilizing your number. I erased my eSIM partly by accident when I swapped phones, eventually I realized I had to go to Bell (but should be the same for Telus) and they sorted me out eventually despite some confusion with GrapheneOS, the eSIM prompt eventually showed but we were already doing a transfer to a regular SIM. Which I later changed to an eSIM online. You can usually do it online for an eSIM, you just type in your one number (EDID I think not sure) and confirm and it SHOULD eventually pop up on your phone.
>>109746016>mom I posted it again
>>109746016>gemini vs gemini
>>109746233wrong. the new siri ai is NOT gemini ai, low iq kid.
VGH, just give me GrapheneOS with a headphone jack, literally don't give a fuck about anything else
>>109746233No you don't understand Apple Gemini is much better than Samsung Gemini. >>109746263>posts AI summary that contradicts spamself.
>>109746274you were literally proven wrong with gemini ai. too easy. show us facts with sources proving your made up false claims little bro.
>>109746284Apple Intelligence oops that was for the iPhone 16 series and cancelled. Siri AI? That's using Gemini models, as your AI summary alludes to. Sure, it's running on Apple servers, but they're still paying Google a billion dollars a year to use their models.

>>109747414But we're past that era, bluetooth headphones can be brough for real cheap so they're just erasing a whole market for no good reason
>>109747572>/G/Hello r€ddit! Welcome to 4chan!Note, you will still be able to sideload anything you want on GrapheneOS, LineageOS, /e/OS, or any other non-Google certified ROM. You will be able to sideload WHATEVER you want indefinitely on Google certified ROMs after toggling an option, you may have to wait a cooling off period to really fuck with scammers trying to get grandma to install their malware. Now, compare this with iOS. They already mandate developer verification (even on macOS but this can be turned off, unlike on mobile). You can sideload, but you need a computer and must renew every 7 days if using altstore. You can trust sketchy "services" to sideload directly on the iPhone, but they keep getting their certs and developer licenses banned because they are against Apple's policy. So if you're switching to iOS because Android is "locked down" now, you're really just going from a frying pan that isn't even turned on to the fire. You can't even get a different web rendering engine on iOS, it's Safari (webkit) or 70 other browsers which are also using webkit.
>>109747853you literally just made everything up and have provided no sources for your claims, and the seven-day renewal thing has not been an issue with iOS for a long time. You don’t have an iPhone, you don’t know what you’re talking about, and you’re literally just here lying, and it’s pathetic. Google’s locking down and it’s over and it’s a good thing too, less scammers making fake apps and taking advantage of people. cope.
>>109747865You have 9th grade tomorrow, get some sleep Spamjay.
>>109747898>level 9000 rejection posting kid with a 7+ year old "smartphone"why don’t you post a new flagship smartphone that was released this year if you wanna be taken seriously? hint, you CAN'T. :) you’re a VERY SALTY little child seething watching everyone posting new smartphones here. you’ve already been caught multiple times and corrected posting misinformation. you’re not fooling anybody, and we’re not gonna stop correcting you. it’s time for you to grow up.
>>109747912>7-day limit for sideloading apps using a free, non-developer Apple ID has not changed. The restriction is inherently tied to Apple's free developer provisioning profiles and remains strictly enforced. https://builds.io/blog/technologies/ios-technologies/stop-refreshing-sideloaded-apps-7-days/?hl=en-US#:~:text=Apple's%20own%20developer%20documentation%20is%20explicit%20about,it%20whether%20it%20wants%20to%20or%20not.

>>109747925>>109747941Poor Spamdeep is crashing out now that they are proven full of shit. 7 day limit exists, or you can trust sketchy signing services. Or pay $99/year plus tip for an Apple developer license to sideload an app for a whole year.
>>109744674wouldn't the subwoofer vibrations mess up the sensitive camera motors and stabilization mechanisms?
>>109747972post a new smartphone? oh right you can't. you don’t have a new phone. how would you know what they’re capable of doing? you only have one very old smartphone. you have no idea what new phones are capable of. all you do is post your opinions and misinformation and get really upset when you get exposed for being low iq.
Been using aurora store for so long but now my banking app doesn't want to open unless it is installed by the playstore. Of course I don't use a google account in my phoneis there a way to make aurora installed apps show as being installed by playstore? I read something about shizuku
Another Samsung exploded. This one happened in the USA.
Samsung NEVER fixed the battery issues..... they should be forced to do recalls like they had to with the Note 7.
Multiple people have now posted how they have a s26 ultra with a blown up battery that made the back pop off. Samsung never fixed their battery defects. Few more new s26 ultra with imploding batteries unfortunately happened too after this one....
Here's a s26 catching fire even though it was new and sealed in the box. Very sad and anons in the thread will defend this company as the top android smartphone manufacturer. https://hardwire.news/articles/viral-reddit-thread-shows-charred-galaxy-s26-is-there-a-major-manufacturing-defect?trk=public_post_comment-text
>>109747990Again, what phone I have doesn't matter. 7 day limit exists. >>109748011>>109748016>>109748027Spamming to try and change the subject is quite pathetic. Grow up kid.
>>109747325>I own a MacBook proit is owned by your employer. you told us this.
>>109748049You have a very old smartphone and have no clue about any new smartphones and how they work in real life. we know this, because you post incorrect speculative misinformation all the time >>109748052Wrong.

I’m upgrading to iPhone 18 Pro Max from my 16 Pro Max
>>109748033made me gag
>>109748102What does my phone have to do with Apple's sideloading policies? You keep obsessing over this, it literally doesn't matter what phone I have because that doesn't change the policy. Why are you upset someone is posting actual facts?Talk about "pocket watching" some more when you're done shrieking about other anon's phones why dontcha?
>>109748114Same and the world's largest smartphone factory is from there too, which is owned and operated by Samsung.
Are there any screen protectors that don't go full retard rainbow mode when viewed through polarized sunglasses?
Ignore the misinformation posting anons who DON'T own a brand new flagship smartphone telling you what they can and can't do. Do the research yourself and don't trust the ones posting opinions and not backing their claims up with NEW sources and facts.
>>109748147>first video: sketchy signing service Thanks for proving my point! You have any other evidence you want to offer to support my claims?
>>109748203Tremendous Cope. You don't even own a iPhone, you got zero clues about this.
>>109748206Why would I want a locked down OS? Of course I don't have an iPhone, I have a Pixel running GrapheneOS. If I purchase an iPhone, does that change Apple's policies? Does it make those signing services any less sketchy? Of course not.

Anyway, it's now "solved" but I got logged out and it says to "Download Official WhatsApp" even though I installed it from the Play Store. Any ideas how to fix this?
>>109748257Lol GrapheneOS is a meme that DOES NOT stop hardware backdoors found in every consumer smartphone.
>>109748269awwww still posting old photos I uploaded here? why not the new one with the newer smartphones I own? you save photos of all the male anons from /g/? why aren't you posting you new smartphones? you got new flagships from this year right?
>>109748290Okay you got me. I own a 10+ year old smartphone I got hand downed to me from my dad. You were right the entire time, I'm just very salty and a little kid. :(
>>109748269>>109748306>Pocket watching child is malfunctioning Stop using my photos, you don't own those smartphones. Stop stealing pics from anons here with more tech than you.

My mate is giving me a pixel 9 pro. I'm gonna install GrapheneOS and finally ditch Google completely.
>>109747383Every company is making out like bandits by selling $10 BOM TWBs for $250. Why would they even give you an option to use cheap wired buds again?
>>109747383>I still have no fucking idea why audio jacks died outBecause they are unironically more expensive to implement in flagships. You're not just paying $0.1-$0.2 per piece, you're also paying engineers to structure the internals of the phone differently while keeping the same target size, feature-set and build quality. Most flagships are extremely tightly packed already.3.5mm jacks still exist in many budget and mid-range phones which aren't struggling with internal space.
Flipout bros, we are going home.
>>109749434>RG Rotate that supports a SIM cardsounds nice, but the keyboard looks awful
>>109746792The Redmagic shill is also the same guy.
>>109746891If you have money to burn and aren't an Anerican(carrier support), they are just very solid phone.
It's the 10 year anniversary of the Note 7. It's still happening.
>>109749161Just like the iPhone 7 that still had room in there for the headphone jack after they removed it, anon?Battery is good enough. For some phone addicts, it will never beenough because they never use the power button on their phone. For me, I'd rather sacrifice capacity to get the convenience of the headphone jack. But even Fairphone removed it to sell more of their shitty "repairable" buds.

>>109750631TOP KEK!
I hate Bluetooth. It sucks. I have to use it in the car because of the random phone call. Sometimes it cuts the volume in half for no discernable reason. When I go through the tunnel, I get a random alert about traffic that's not really there and it flips my audio channel in the process. Even wired Android Auto still uses Bluetooth, despite the phone being plugged in. Why? Just use the cable. When I look for a device to connect, there are always ten random devices nearby. How much of this shit is going through my house? I need to move to the middle of nowhere.
>>109750626INCREASE
>>109750631>Typical Samsung quality control it hasn't even been out a entire month and it's already failing.....
>>10975065999% of those are just trash. Heaven forbid I should want a decent phone, with a nice screen, wireless charging, a good camera and expandable memory. That pretty much only leaves one phone. Which is fucking huge. All phones are enormous now. Even smaller phones are heavy as fuck, over 200g. Why? This is the only phone that would be comfortable to use for me, but it's China only and has no headphone jack.

>>109752629This is a good thing. You don't seem to appreciate that these kind of hacks can be used by the dev scene to achieve custom firmware flashing on locked down phones. The only issue is, now that phone OEM's know this, they'll patch the exploit.

It's not really that hard though is it?
>>109752905This is really funny because if you actually read the ToS of your mobile device (any current producer), it clearly states you DO NOT, infact, OWN the device you've purchased.
>>109752905Or, use an OEM which isn't Google certified and therefore doesn't need this shit. Or, use a 3rd party ROM instead of the one shipped by the OEM.

>>109753861Try applying for a position with a mobile phone OEM to post the same material on an anonymous image board, specialist websites with unsubstantiated, bad news stories about their competition, causing reputational damage that wouldn't be acceptable on mainstream news, social media or advertising outlets because of the lack of evidence and the probable litigation. That or get a job. Good luck anon.

Will there be a global version of the Oneplus 16?
Are future iPhones still worth getting even if more are probably going to be made from India now that the infrastructure is there and every iPhone will contain a chip made from Nagaihanagakure?>t. anon who's safe and luckily got an iPhone 17 Pro made in China last year but is also dissatisfied with the 17's ridiculous aperture that makes it impossible to focus when taking closeup pics
iPhone chips are NOT made in india, the SOC is made by tsmc in Taiwan and the main board is fabricated ONLY in China. India is only the assembly line for putting parts together at a cost less than what apple pays to workers in China. If anything Samsung is gonna be making ram in its india factory soon and moving to 80% production for foreign markets by 2028.

Samsung can't even stop the green lines from happening and it's been a known issue since the s21. Android authority literally has articles out explaining how Samsung's own update is causing the green line issue too.https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-gallery/android-authority-green-line-bug-reports-acknowledged/td-p/26560512https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1p9x65b/samsung_green_lines_issue_is_back_users_claim/
They refuse to acknowledge the defects… they should be forced to do a recall like they had to with the note 7!
A s24 exploded in Korea this past May as well. Nothing to do with hot climate, the smartphones have a massive defect and the company won't recall them until they are forced to like with the Note 7.https://www.phonearena.com/news/s24-catches-fire-in-south-korea_id180345

I don't think foldable phones are ready for prime time yet
is it true motorola is making a small wide foldable phone? if so is it worth it to wait for that or just get a razr fold?
I don't like foldable phones. Just seems like another vulnerability with your screen. I hated the Samsung SX Edges because of how the graphics contorted around the edges and this is a similar feeling of skewed graphics. Like I'd rather it just be a fake bezel and divide the screens like a Nintendo DS.

>>109756895Because it is the result of previous damage being exasperated by the heat of the update. Updates do not cause display damage, full stop. Spamdeep knows this but his flamewar against Samsung will continue until someone finally bans his ass for blatant breaking of the rules.

You are in a different timezone than the USA, stop capping and stop making things up.>>109758758Not true, electricians figured it out and Samsung won't issue a recall or fix; it's the updates melting the ribbon connector. You don't know what you're talking about.
I just found out my sister bought an iPhone 16 Pro in November 2025. How do I cope?
>>109759131Please just stop with your jihad against Samsung. I don't like Samsung but it is just cringe and your spamming of flamebait posts is annoying. Making up shit about updates damaging screens when iPhones use mostly Samsung screens in the Pro models is pretty retarded.
>>109759534This is a smartphone general and we will post about smartphones here regardless of what you feel. Not my problem that you can't handle seeing factual information.
>>109759575Also adding to this, if you actually had reading comprehension at an adult level you would have noticed the pic related here >>109759131 shows how electricians have shown the difference between Samsung and iPhone panels and why even with the same branded panels (made by Samsung) the design in the Samsung leads to the ribbon connector melting whereas apple figured out how to stop that. It's very easy if you actually paid attention instead of posting your false opinions.
>>109759575>spamming and flame warring is okay if it is on topicIt is quite literally against the rules of this website.
>>109759575So that gives you the right to spam the same shit every thread? To post false information 5 posts in a row directed at a company you hate because they beat your precious Apple to the punch on an iPhone Fold/Ultra equivalent? To attempt to start flame wars every 10 minutes? To samefag so blatantly that you fool no one in an attempt to appear like people like your posts? You need psychiatric help m8.
>>109759592>>109759607Cringe. You post your wrong opinions while I post facts with sources.
>>109759607prove what was posted in false with sources and information and links, we don't trust fanboys like you. its obvious youre covering for samsung and looking the other way while they cause the ram crisis and sell defective smartphones that have failing screens, batteries that blow up, devices that catch fire while charging and also foldables that dont open or close properly after 1 month and creases in the screen that get worse. not my problem you refuse to accept reality.
>>109759589>>109759616>false opinions>wrong opinionsAww. Who is ESL now? How can an opinion be false?>I like broccoli NO THAT'S A FALSE OPINION!!!!1But someone posting on reddit?

>>109759708Nothing that I posted is spam. Look at how you incorrectly label factual information that way, failing to prove yourself. Top kek. You can't debunk the valid information BECAUSE ITS REAL. I provided links with sources and all you do is post paragraphs of misinformation. You can't even prove your false claims. I accept your concession. Too easy. The posts about smartphones will continue because this is a general for it.
What should I replace my s25 ultra with? The s27 looks bleak so far

>>109759724Post like a normal person and you won't be called out for low quality, flame war, spam posts. Ideally people shouldn't know who you are, 4chan is not so you can become e-famous as the boy who ruined /spg/ for months.
>>109759745still cant debunk the factual information being posted. I own 3 brand new samsung smartphones and even if I didn't I can post the truth about their defects here. too easy.

Yo-ho, niggers! Imma finna buy a phone and I can't decide what to buy.I bought a Moto G7 pre-covid. It works well! But it's on Android 10 and I have to upgrade, now or next year.I know chinkshit has better specs for lower prices, but I don't like the data exfiltration they do. So Xiaomi and the like are out.I hate Samshit. So that's out too.That leaves us with Applel and Pixlel.I'm partial towards the Pixel 10a because it doesn't have a camera bump and has zero bloat and will get updates for seven years. And I've read a ton of complaints about the modem in previous Pixel phones, but not for this one. The 9a has a worse modem, so I won't buy that, even though it's the same phone. And the 10a is the last phone that supports GrapheneOS. Maybe the Pixel 12 will but I can't wait that long.I could also spend twice as much and buy the iphone air.I wanna know if Pixels are stable. Do they have weird bugs? Can I actually use this thing for seven years? Same for Applel.I use my phone for normal stuff: payments, messaging, occasional youtube vid, etc. No gaming.

>>109760379>I don't like the data exfiltrationThen get a Pixel and install GrapheneOS. There is quite literally no other option.
>>109760577I've been raw-dogging lineage for six years and I'm tired, boss. I just want things to work and not have to fiddle around in magisk every month. I barely, if ever, use my phone for anything private and if I buy anything the juden know about it anyway, and they would know even via grapheneos. So it doesn't make much sense to me to be THAT privacy-oriented. I draw the line at my photos being uploaded, though.
>>109760548Where is it launching though? They left Europe, right? Do they still launch in NA?
>>109760624The fuck do you even need magisk for?>THAT privacy-orientedGrapheneOS works perfectly fine aside from a handful of banks blocking it. My entire family is on GrapheneOS and nobody has any usability complaints aside from the default camera app being ass, which is easily fixed with a different app.The point of Graphene isn't even privacy as much as it is security. It is literally the most secure consumer-grade OS out there.
>>109760673It’s a meme and it does not stop hardware back doors in smartphones
>>109760673Nigga I still have to log in to things with GrapheneOS, and I only ever use my phone for payments, messaging and occasional goy activities. All of these require logging in to an account.GrapheneOS is a giant fucking red flag. Yes, it works. Actually telling someone you have it installed makes them think you're a pedo.
>>109744319>>Recommended phones>it's all chink shitDo they consider CCP spying on you as a plus?

I'm pretty retarded when it comes to electronics and phones, never really needed to know much nor did I care.My iPhone 13 is starting to show battery loss and I figured i'd switch to a new one in the near future. I cant find another new 13 available anywhere besides a ''refurbished'' one.I was looking at the google pixel + GrapheneOS option.How bad is a pixel 10 pro vs a new pixel 11/11 pro? its currently half price here and I might just grab one, though I hate androids UI
>>109762103>My iPhone 13 is starting to show battery loss and I figured i'd switch to a new one in the near future.Replace the battery. Don't buy a new phone.
>>109762103If you can actually install graphene OS go for it. otherwise be aware that google is ramming onboard AI with gemini in android and disabling it is a slider with a "trust me bro" attached but like it will analyze all your files and phone home to the mothership anyway most likely

If ~all my interaction on a phone is within these walled silos, then I don't need grapheneOS's enhanced privacy features at all. Also, yeah, I need payments and maybe banking to work flawlessly.

I just want things to workI've been using it since it was called CyanogenMod and that's also exactly why I want to move to GrapheneOS ASAP. Graphene issues are concentrated on one type of device, so you're more likely to find someone else with the exact same problem and probably the fix, and if something has no chance of working then you'll generally know up front. With Lineage, different things will simply not work like half the time, good luck trying to figure out why or finding a fix - the guy doing your nightly builds will sure as hell not have a clue either. I swear I've been coping with the same type of half broken shit on at least 6 different devices over the last decade.
