Mr. Powers posted:We had internal micro SD cards on one product I worked on and the next product we spun on the same platform we used an eMMC. It was really nice, considering we glued the micro SD into its slot. Most modern electronics use emmc or UFS these days. External SDcards are nothing but dumpster fire trash to deal with and I am glad they are going away more and more. gently caress microSD for anything other than photos and video.

CLAM DOWN posted:This might be really retarded but I apologize in advance: Can cold affect the vibration motor temporarily? I went for a hike and it was really cold and when I turned my phone back on after the hike (it was dry in my backpack the whole time) the vibration didn't work for a while, until it warmed back up and it magically just started vibrating again. It was about 5-8c during the hike. Yes it could! Sounds to me like a lovely cable though, as most consumer electronics are rated from 0C to 70C.

If verizon is going to be a dick about it and not activate a phone I buy used, then I guess I"ll go to AT&T. This is as far as I've gotten. The Android Thread - Get a Nexus

Krinkle posted:Okay now which one? I wouldn't mind getting a 5 or 6 but these amazon questions and answers make it seem like it's up in the air whether you receive a refurbished one with broken functionality or an international one without CDMA. I worry that my level of knowledge is so low I wouldn't find out right away if one that got shipped was wrong in some way and after going through the trouble of getting it activated and my phone number transferred over that it would be too late to return it. Get one from the Google store. As for you, either the 5x, 6, or 6p are good.

Jenner posted:Hello I am an idiot. I own a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini. Today it ran out of battery. I charged it inside the car and needed to use it for google maps. It blacked out again while I was navigating, even while on the car charger, gently caress me. It stayed blacked out and did not go to the screen with the little charging battery animation. I worried. I tried to start it back up again, phone was dead and I was lost. At this point I admit I hit the phone against my leg a couple times in anger because that will definitely fix it. Phone still dead on the car charger with no "charging" screen. Get a new phone. Next time remember that when a phone battery dies it can actually harm the battery when you try to repeatedly turn the phone on without charging it. Also if your car charger is only providing 500mA it won't charge the phone and provide gps and keep the screen on at the same time.

The note 5 is 400$ off Swappa in mint condition. These phones depreciate over 50% of their value in one year. Buying them brand new is insane.

RVProfootballer posted:Happened to my wife's U.S. G4 too, and I guess was common enough that the T-Mobile store worker actually knew what about the issue. G3 had a bad display and overheating issues. LG G2 had some of the absolute worst skinned Android ever. LG is bad. The g3 and below are ancient. The g4 was praised for the most part and the v10 is loved yes? Also they aren't nearly as poo poo as Samsung in terms of bloatware and delays on updated I have found.

Butt Savage posted:If the merged OS is true, then I'm still wondering if Google is going to go the Continuum route that MS tried and failed with their lovely phones and mobile OS. I mean, ChromeOS is already supporting windowed Android apps, so it could be a possibility with a much more established app ecosystem. The windows mobile version is actually really good. If they had a x86 phone it would be amazing.
