FUCK!! It's been 3 days in the new office.
Can't find a single to rant about.

New phone rom doesn't allow bloatware app removal, even at root level.
Root file manager -> /system/app -> remove whole 'uninstallable app's' whole fucking folder -> reboot -> device still works well.
Problem solved.32 -
I dont know why..But i laughed for 5 minutes after seeing the last comment . Maybe personal experience..

Friend: "Wow! Is it a Raspberry PI?"
Me: "It's another version called Banana, but yes."
Friend: "I want one too for the games!"
Me: "OK, it's easy. There's a ROM called Retro ..."
Friend stare at me intensively
Me: "Sigh... Ok, I'll setup it for you..."7 -
Switched to Fedora after using Ubuntu for a long time.
while working on a project, I had to use the git editor. I expected nano like in Ubuntu, but Vim showed up.
I had no prior experience using Vim 😭
The End27 -
Deleted facebook and instagram.
Next up:
1. Switch to a custom rom and delete xiaomi account cuz they just sayin they will store basically everything plus they do shady shit.
2. Remove chrome and use good ol firefox.
3. Better sleep.31 -
A while back a co-worker of mine fucked up by leaving some debug code and pushing to production.
He quickly repaired it, redeployed and everything was good again before the customer experienced any issues.
Later that day, management showed up by his desk to ask what happened, how it happened and stating that he was not "angry enough" about his fuck up, long after it has been repaired.
Up to this day i regret not asking in what unit of measurement we could determine if we were angry enough; decibels? gray hairs? grams of shit in my underwear?4 -
Soon I am going to de-google my phone. As much as I can that is.
This is what I am going to use:
- microG instead of Google Services (read more about it here: https://microg.org/)
- F-Droid for FOSS apps and Yalp Store for downloading Play Store apks
- LineageOS as my ROM
- Signal for messaging and Silence for SMS messaging (even though I rarely send SMS)
- NewPipe for watching YouTube videos
-Tutanota as my email service
- Firefox with a bunch of add-ons (uBlock, uMatrix, Cookie Autodelete, privacy badger etc...)
- duckduckgo as my search engine
- And if I could afford a VPN I would go for MullVad
If there's something more you would like to suggest feel free to do so.41 -
Teacher: Computer settings are stored in the ROM on the motherboard.
Me: *internally* Uhm, yea, sure... and I am the pope
Me: Sorry to interrupt you but how come the BIOS settings get reset when the CMOS battery is pulled out or dies if they are stored in ROM?
Teacher: ....
Me: *internally* yea, that's what I thought, you have no clue what you are even saying - the BIOS is stored in ROM or flash memory while the settings are stored in NVRAM also called CMOS memory...10 -

Just found an EPROM (Erasable Programmable ROM) from my dad's old stuff.
Yeah, there's a window for UV light, if you wish to erase your existing code/data!
Thought you people can relate.....

the new binary ++ count really got me. didn't realize it until after some time.

Dad handed over this beast to me
Casio PB-100
RAM: 1KB
ROM: 10KB
CPU: 455KHz
Display: 12 characters Monochrome
It's hard to believe that someone used this to code back in those days. Suppose to have been one of the first personal handheld computers. And people here complain about having 32gb RAM with 8 cores shame on you all

I'm so overwhelmed by childhood memories and emotions right now.
After 7 years or so I found my old PSP while throwing away and sorting out old stuff. I thought i already have thrown it away.
It was my first gaming console and I've spent so much time with it. There are so much memories connected to this device.
And now the best part: for some reasons I have kept the charger all the years. So I've just plugged it in and it works. It works like on the first day ❤
Now, anyone has some ideas or suggestions for some nice hacks? Like custom firmwares or things like that

Installed a custom ROM.
The emoji's here are much like the android blobs but they are slightly different. I think they're uglier/unnatural.

Why the fuck someone write "used linux to speed up development" in your resume. But when you have to use it, questions like "where to download git for linux?" appears?1

There is nothing better then getting new phone and first thing you do when you came back is flashing custom ROM on it.

What I should do:
- organise my files
- make a pp presentation for English that I haven't even started
- learn for a test about insurances
- learn about characterising, processing and evaluating data
- more shit
What I do:
- browse devrant
- play games
- flash a new ROM until I find a good one
- restore a backup
- flash another ROM
- restore a backup
- go with the least worst ROM I had installed
- sleep
- sleep

- FUCKING SLEEP
At least I completely blocked YouTube...6 -
So, I finally gave in and installed the unofficial LineageOS ROM for the Google Pixel on my phone. I got tired of waiting for the official ROM. It was quite an adventure. I have to say the most time-consuming part of the whole process was getting my bootloader unlocked (because my Pixel came from Verizon.) I did have a little adventure after the installation though. I opened the devRant app for the first time and was instantly blinded by the default light theme.
TL;DR I now have LineageOS running on my Google Pixel, and I'm quite happy about it.4 -
That moment when you change your mindset from "I'll probably leave the office by 6pm" to "I hope I'll leave before midnight"2

I have done crazy stuff before but this time im going to take it to another level.
I compiled custom ROM on PC, Server, tablet, Rpi.
But this time lets take it to another level. Lets compile Android on Android.
Ouuuu yeahhh3 -
Hello (World)! Noob here. I installed devRant around 5 days ago. I just keep reading the rants and didn't created my account because i was not sure if i will stay here for long time coz most (cr-)apps are boring.
After 5 days:
I owe all of you a tons of '++'.
I want a boss like @Linux have. (i know tags work only in comments)
Gonna stay here till i stay in IT industry.(maybe)10 -
Once I didn't knew anything about coding or development.
Someone suggested me to start with Java.
Still looking for that Mada-foker.5 -
Xiaomi makes you wait for 360 hours before they can allow you to unlock their phone's bootloader! Now I'm just seated here dealing with bloatware as I wait for 2 weeks to do a 30 second operation. It's 2018, come on!6

Me: *Trying to get the mobile banking app*
App: Nope, you have a rooted device
Me: *disables root access for apps and adb*
App: Nope, you have a rooted device
Me: *Maybe a xposed module would help*

Me: *Maybe there's some LineageOS marshmallow rom for my phone*
LineageOS: Nope, just android 7.1

Now that the Phone has a custom rom with root, with only a little issue with some split screen nonsense I'm finally ready to use my phone like a normal ph- OH MY GOD WHAT IS THIS? WHERE THE HELL ARE MY BLOBS? WHAT THE FUUCK!?
Good thing that I rooted with Magisk and I could flash the blobs https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...

Now this is true. Devrant changed me and now, after one of the devranters post I'm finally searching for a new job. Most of the time I was using PHP, but here I've seen lot of rants about laravel. Now I'm building a website with it and going to change my job. Thank you Devrant creators and community.3

When I used Windows and I needed to flash a rom I had to download minimal adb and fastboot package to use adb and fastboot.
I am using Manjaro now so I thought there must be a minimal package. Searched on pacman and android-tools is already installed and it's just a 2mb package. I love linux 😁8 -
Stack overflow was down..

College Senior : Do some online courses.
*did a course for a month! Still not confident*
Me: it ain't working for me.
Senior: Do some project.

After wasting my 6 months on Java, i reached to the conclusion that: "Java Sucks" (at least for me)

Any nexus 6p users are out there? I'm thinking of flashing a new rom because the performance is taking a big hit and battery life is becoming abysmal. Any recommendations for this particular phone?27

My day:
5:30AM - 2yo son wakes me up, I send him back to his bed
6AM - wakes me up again, gotta grab a coffee
7:30AM - leaving towards the office
8:30AM - finally arriving to the office, after horrible traffic.
*continue working on major schema change I started yesterday*
12:30PM - Lunch + Beer
1:30PM - Tequila time!
*back to work*
7:30PM - Finally done with coding, leaving the office
8PM - home at last
9:30PM - Beer time
9:31PM - "I'll just write a couple of more lines"
12:30AM - "That's it, no more code for today"
12:31AM - "I'll just scroll through devRant"1 -
He couldn't sleep for 2 days because he missed her.
I couldn't sleep for 4 days because I missed a stupid ";" in my code. 😟 -
Just wrote a rant/story about my school day, seriously spend 10 - 15 min writing it and I was just about to post it, but boom - "Unfortunately devRant has stopped"
Sometimes with good custom ROM comes unstable updates.
P.S. if you think devRant would have saved my rant, don't worry I thought that too but when I checked it, it was empty just like my devRant notifs!!2 -
When im programming everything is OK. Maybe im distracted but i can fight that.
But when it comes to Android ROMs and releasing then i hate people that send you PM about the ROM and the answer is literally in the first post.1 -
left the office early today to see my 2 years old son before he goes to bed.
it's 11pm and I'm working from home, gonna wake up around 5:30am to commute to work.
I really need to move closer to work3 -
When you know they are going to curse you like "rom is unstable... you broke my phone" so you deal them like this 😂

@Haxk20 pls halp... I'm dying right now...
Have you managed to deodex an Android 9.0 based ROM? Neither smali/baksmali nor vdexExtractor seem to support android Pie and just leave me with shitty cdex files that I can't convert into proper dex.
Have to deodex my ROM in order to patch it for Signature spoofing for MicroG to work. What a clusterfuck.8 -

I LOVE CyanogenMod but in order to get the latest updates I have to make my own unofficial rom -_- UGHHHHH19

You say my ROM is crashing and is unstable ???
How dare you ?
I have spent 1 fucking month running it daily just to test it and its freaking stable and fast even after 1 month of hard use and lots of apps.
So sorry but i cant fix that you are fucking stupid and cant read flashing instruction properly.8 -
I rooted my phone and flashed a new Android version and I got to say, I can't be happier. This is best choice I've made since ever.3

Building RR for my device from 2013 with excellent support still. (Xperia SP).
Damn I think I never saw easier build.
No errors on first try.
Just edited devote tree to work with RR and boom working ROM.
But that is only because of one of the best devs at XDA since he is supporting this device in LineageOS.6 -
I'm fed up with vanilla Android on my Mi A1, which is why I'm going ro resurrect my phone today.
Wish me luck.14 -
Serious question: why all the hate on PHP?
I've been using it as my main language, and genuinely like it. Tried Java but find that to be typing a fuckload to get the same task done. Javascript is nice, but still, i prefer PHP (probably mostly because i know it).
Just really curious, what have i been missing?15 -
Flashed my Nexus 5x into a pixel. I really recommend it. The camera app launches much quicker plus:

It was our first session for FOSS Lab(a paper we had in 4th semester).
our teacher introduced us to the linux terminal, basic commands like ls, cd, touch, chmod etc. and asked us to write a shell script to append ".old" to all file names in the directory, he also warned us about running the script in home directory.
we all started doing what we could.
my friend who was sitting next to me:
*opens terminal*
~$ touch script.sh
~$ nano script.sh
*writes his script that puts a .old extension to every file/directory in the current directory*
~$ chmod +x script.sh
~$ ./script.sh
me seeing this: 🤦♂️
plot twist: this guy is actually pretty good with linux13 -
after having a pretty bad experience with nougat and the android O beta on my nexus 6p I've decided to try a custom rom again. went for pure nexus and now my phone is blazzing fast again :) pretty amazed by the progress this rom made in 1 year5

Is there some basic guide to privacy for (android) phones?
Like where you flash some secure ROM, get timely updates , no gapps or privacy threatening app, use secure services and alternatives mainstream ones, and use foss s/w.. And something like fdroid instead of playstore store or something..
Ignore the badly framed idea, but you get my point..8 -
Why the fuck is it so hard to find a proper guide on porting a custom rom(LineageOS) to a device?!2
-
Whoever thought of binding the options button to the currently opened apps and then decided also to bind it to this useless multi window shit needs to from and me the plot if the adventure of huckleberry Finn.
Worst is that I have been through the options and disabled the options button AND IT IS STILL THERE
And here I were getting all happy about using a custom ROM :<

Finally installed a custom ROM (dirty unicorns) and added a designated devRant icon in the navigation bar because it's the only app I ever use on this phone

My device has this storage cleaning thingy (I don't know how common that is) and it offered me to delete "useless" big files. So why not just do it?
WHY? BECAUSE IT DELETES YOUR TWRP BACKUPS..
And stupid me didnt notice.
Times passes and I tried to install the Resurrection Remix Rom on my phone.
"I have a backup. What could go wrong?" Answer: ALOT
The rom didn't work (I still don't know why). "Let's load the backup then"..
"Well ..
Fuck... That was the big useless file I guess"
Now I'm fighting thermonuclear war with the carbon ROM -
Magento 2.
If you've worked with it, you know why.
If you don't know why, do yourself a favor and keep it that way.7 -
So I just reflashed my ROM and can you guess what I installed first?
Yes, you guessed it. It was devRant :)2 -

when you're struggling to build small sized firmware on your 512Kb IoT Device resulting in bootloop every time... Then you see in the manual, that you have the 4Mb model and you frashed the rom to the wrong memory address for 2 weeks resulting in a bootloop... FML

If only phone manufacturers will give us something like system installation disk/mini usb or smthing... Then there will be no stress about anything!

Friendly reminder that if you make closed source tools for rom hacking, you're hindering the community. You dick.
I mean, if you want to tear open a game, you should at least be willing to open your tools!
Case in point: Spinning up a Windows VM to run dotPeek to decompile some tools is a fucking huge PITA, and I want to make better and more automated tools - also fuck using wine.
Oh also fuck you if you use WinForms or otherwise make your tools for Windows only -

Also, it was satisfying.1 -
I just rooted my phone after waiting long time to unlock bootloader. I know some of you here are using custom rom on redmi note 4. Which custom rom are you guys using?4
-
I decided to port a CM12 ROM onto an old device which had up to CM11 ROMs available. This was literally the worst and best port idea at the same time.
Well, at first, everything went neatly, but I noticed the ROM was excessively big. I replaced the boot animation, apps and sounds so they don't take up that much space. Made the ROM smaller.
Second take: the ROM didn't install due to error 7 and a symlink error message. I was fucking around with symlink, but that didn't do anything. I realised I can just put some labels indicating each and every stage of the installation so that I can get the ROM installed. The faulty thing was called "busybox" so I just moved it over to another file so I can copy it back when needed.
Guess what - the ROM was installed successfully, but I was pretty sure I fucked up by removing busybox.
Fun fact: I don't have much Android ROM making experience.
This is happening as I type - the phone is now booting up, and it takes much longer than an usual straight-after-installation boot-up. So we'll, I guess I literally froze that phone for now. Will try to get busybox working and supply some libs if needed.
To be continued. (I'll write a reply)4 -
What’s up DevRanters.
Is what’s up still up today ?
Sooo, my question is, what’d you do for your privacy ?
I’m using Signal and Riot.im for chat, ProtonMail for email (tutanota in the future).
But I’m using iPhone, can we really trust Apple ? Is this better on Android with a specific ROM ?
Same for computers (btw I’m not an Arch user 😎).19 -

Question for the Android users!
I'm tired of Google and its intrusive apps and shit so I'm thinking installing a custom ROM, but I see that there are plenty of them (Lineage, Paranoid, Dirty Unicorns, etc etc), so I'm looking for advice ✌️😎14 -
thought about giving React Native a try (I'm new to nodejs too).
*Downloaded node-v8.11-blah-blah.tar.xz (the LTS version)
*Installed it
*installed the react-native stuff with npm
*created a small app
*npm start
wild warning appears saying I'm using npm 5.6.0 and it has bugs and to use the latest one.
*downloaded more recent node-v9.11-blah-blah.tar.xz
*installed it
*tried again (npm start)
same wild warning again
so, it wants me to use the nightly versions ?
wtf ?3 -
Switched to LG G5 from iPhone 7 Plus.
Lg's screen has burn in and took me about 10 hours to completely fuck it up, restore it, flash crDroid(Lineage os based, the only custom rom working fine so far) and workaround the faulty wifi chip giving null mac address by faking it.
Still love my new(old) phone more than the iPhone.2 -
I'm thinking of moving on from LineageOS. It's pretty good on my S3, but the battery life is laughable and there's some in built features missing I'd love to have.
Maybe make my own? I have trouble finding ROMs for my phone (that I like)8 -

any good ROM recommendations?7 -
All devs,
Can someone tell how to find if there's a backdoor in your Android phone or custom ROM installed?16 -
The biggest dilemma for me has always been whether to switch my Android device to a sleek beautiful customisable AOSP based ROM or keep the stock ROM with all the amazing drivers and features, but with crappy bloatware.
Been sticking with CM/Lineage for years, amazing experience with Xposed & Viper4Android, but at expense of things like 4K and slow motion video and other stuff. -
yesterday, I just swapped my sim card for some time with another. Placed it back....and voila! I can't enable data connection. I lost all my apn settings. To add to this, neither is it auto fetching the apns, nor i can manually change it! It shows some fucking error "apn settings not available for this user". I have another phone with same android version (lollipop) and everything works smoothly on it. These guys just broke everything after giving an upgrade from kitkat. Auto brightness stops working after a few hours, random reboots.... This is it... bye bye stock rom!

My patch to a BBC Micro emulator to allow passthrough access to the host's IDE interface seems to work. Now I can try and program a BBC Micro to access CD-ROM drives 😃

That feel when your friend uses your old phone and gives it back then didn't tell you the password.
Then that extra feel when you try find a rom for it and get lucky but then you can't find the correct gapps version so you just adb install ancient apps from prehistoric times......

So I've been on vacation for a week now, still two days to go until I get back to work.
It's been super fun, but I am getting pretty stressed about the shit-ton of work I have to do when I come back.
How do you let go?2 -
Came back to ubuntu after a long time and installed the latest LTS 18.04.

smblevelworkshop2. It's a level editor for Super Monkey Ball 1/2.
I mean, yes I could try to add on to and fix my first attempt, but that's such a huge mess (speed < quality) that I just decided to scrap it and work on v2. -
on one hand - softlayer is way less intuitive than aws...
on the other hand - when your boss tells you you can bring up up to $1000 monthly valued servers, you can forget about the first hand

My phone has been in a state where it has a perfectly fine LTE connection but no internet for 2 days. Provider confirmed the connectivity. Failure is on my end.

I miss ROM cartridges. Shure the software looked like crap, but at least they had to make shure it was worked before shipping. I'm having a bad day today being right in the consequences of "we can always patch it later".2

Just wondering what makes every client think that they are the ONLY client we have. Every one of them seems to want to do what they ask you to immediately after they finish writing their skype/slack/whatever message.
How could someone imagine that we're just sitting there, staring at the screen, waiting for their message? We're not in a weird rom-com. -
I have tons of old phones, I'd like to use them as IOT devices. Anyone know a really small Android rom with no extras? Not only no Playstore, but also no fancy theme engine etc, so I can use them as servers etc1

My father gave me a couple smartphones to do whatever with.
So what do you guys think I should do with them?
I have an Alcatel onetouch and a Galaxy Core Prime.
So yeah, custom ROM? Tear them apart for parts? Hack them?
I'd love some ideas!5 -
I had to reinstall ROM for some reason on my phone. After installing devRant again I saw the light theme (the default theme) and I was like woah! too much light, take me back to the dark side my friend.

Any advice on how to get started with porting an old Cyanogenmod ROM 13.1 for an unsupported device to upstream LineageOS?

I created a bitbucket account because someone said it was better than github or gitlab but I ended up not using the account. I wanted to delete the account and was looking for a way. I sent them an email on 11th july saying I want to delete the account. They confirmed right away asking me to do some bleh bleh bleh (step 1 out of infinity). it's been more than a fucking month of sending and receiving emails and guess what, the account is still there.
please atlassian, I understand I shouldn't have created that account. I just want it gone. just delete it already. how hard is it?
and they say it's because of GDPR. didn't I give you my consent?1 -
