How to remove unwanted apps on your Android device using ADB (safe and foolproof method).

Nowadays, phones come pre-installed with a lot of useless apps. We don't use these apps but we can't install them either. You could disable it but some apps can't be disabled and take up space and RAM on your phone. However, there is an easy way to take care of this problem which is 100% safe. It is by using ADB (Android Debug Bridge).

To do this you will need : a USB cable, your phone, a PC

Chrome crashing 2020 chrome Freezing solved

So over the past week I've been having issues with chrome. On some web sites it's been freezing and won't work until I leave chrome and come back. Then it will work for a little bit. So I found a fix. You can simply install chrome beta from the app store and it's basically the same and works fine. Or you can install the the app called repair, go into the app. Tap the drop down Bar on the left hand side. Go to system apps at the top. Scroll down until you find chrome. Then hit uninstall.

Upset that YouTube keeps closing your videos, saying music isn't allowed for picture-in-picture mode? Use pop-up view to bypass YouTube's auto-close.

If you are upset that YouTube keeps closing your videos as you switch to another app because music isn't allowed for picture-in-picture mode, you can use android's open in pop-up view mode to view the video without YouTube closing it.


To get to pop-up view, hold the app icon in your currently running apps view, and select pop-up view mode.

Upgrade P20 Pro to S20+

I thought I would do a post on this as it is something I had searched before upgrading and didn't get a lot of info. I have been using the S20+ for over a week now.

Overall I am happy with my upgrade but there are definitely plenty of reasons why I shouldn't have bothered.

The S20 display is great and I love the almost full screen display. However, with the full screen display comes the in screen finger print scanner. It is horrible. The physical scanner on the p20 Pro was much much better, a...

Will phones trend towards not having no speakers/mic in near future?

I see a trend with the removing of 3.5mm jack and many BT headsets now in the market, that in the future perhaps Apple removes the iPhone speaker/microphone altogether and everyone will follow that? I mean with all the different BT headsets options I have, I rarely use phone speaker/mic. I have BT headphones, Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 (that I can use for calling) and I'm looking for some BT earbuds next.

What others think about this trend?...
