Well about 2-3 months ago, they blocked the ability. iPhone Chrome does not have this issue. Why is Google more restrictive than with their own products on the competition? Also why is the Chrome update with the new look that came out with Android P slower than the Chrome from before the update? --- "Fear cuts deeper than swords." <cite>archedsoul posted [p:909677585] in If Android...

Almost every phone uses binary blobs for the hardware drivers, many flagship phones have locked bootloaders, and most manufacturers insert their own proprietary shovelware into the OS. <cite>treewojima posted [p:909678053] in If Android...

That came out what? 4 months ago? Google finally acknowledged it with P official came out. It's been almost 7 weeks since then and still no fix. --- "Scranton is great, but New York is like Scranton on acid. No, on speed. Nah. On steroids."

So what, there's just regular charging? I can't live without FC in 2018. Coffeebeanz posted...

Besides, no other browser syncs everything between all my stuff. Also Samsung Internet has it blocked too and that's the only other browser worth using on Android. I've been trying to like Firefox Mobile for years, but it's just not good. Especially if you have it at a high DPI, in which case it defaults to desktop. --- "Fear cuts deeper than swords." <cite>archedsoul posted [p:909690230] in If Android...
