Google Play Console Getting Overly Convoluted
I don't know if this is just me, but it seems like month after month now, the Google Play console is just becoming more and more convoluted.
Today I signed in to adjust the price of an IAP item, and it seems that they have now totally revamped this process to make it as unintuitive and non-straight forward as possible.
Just a few months ago, they made "upgrades" to where you can no longer drag and drop new icon/feature graphic/screenshot assets into the store assets section of the page, you ...

Random adb connection attempt
This happened before.
Idk how it is happening but I managed to get the fingerprint of the person who was tryna hack into my android projector, today I was able to get logs of the persons machine, which gave a windows desktop, with the name of it which I will not be stating.
I already have a live logging thing running for anyone attempting to connect again.

Is it enough to set minifyEnabled to true inside the app module?
I have a typical multi module app with multiple feature modules and the app module is the entry point that has a dependency on all the feature modules.
Previously, I was setting minifyEnabled to true on each feature module and this was causing a lot of issues with R8 which I tried to fix by modifying the proguard file of each feature module. But then I scrapped all of that and just set minifyEnabled to true on the app module and everything worked immediately.
My question is whether is it eno...

Bricked Tecno Spark Go 1 (KL4) After Bootloader Unlock Attempt - Need Help! (Unisoc T615, splloader Erased, Not Detected in lsusb or Windows)
Hi everyone,
I'm desperate for help with my bricked Tecno Spark Go 1 (KL4, Unisoc T615, HiOS, firmware kl4-f201abcu-ugoru-250616v393). After attempting to unlock the bootloader using an XDA guide, my phone is completely dead: no boot, no fastboot, no recovery, no DIAG mode, and it’s no longer detected in lsusb on Fedora or in Windows. I've tried everything I could, and I’m hoping someone can point me to a solution.

Bosch Layoff
With TomTom, Swedish automakers, and now Bosch reportedly laying off teams, it feels like the automotive software landscape is shifting fast — especially with the industry leaning toward embedded systems over Android Auto–style integrations.
It makes me wonder:
👉 What’s the real future of Android Auto and similar ecosystems?
👉 Is this a temporary contraction or a deeper pivot toward fully in-house, embedded OS solutions?
👉 For developers and engineers in this space — is it wiser to pivot to AI ...

Is there really no way to control the wifi programmatically? (I hope that this is the right place to ask)
Hi,
I have a lot of experience with coding for simulations/data processing for my sdudy, but almost no experience when it comes to android or development of programs for user interaction. With that, I decided to develop an app for my own benefits to execute all sorts of tasks that I need. As this is for my own benefit, and for learning, I'm vibe-coding the hell out of this (though, I do keep attention to what the code is actually doing and that what is happening makes a least some sense to me)...

App Icon: Better to use an image or text?
Hi,
TL: DR - Are app game icons better to be an image or text for the google play store? And if you've tried both, which got most traction?

Collection of Actions We Can Take to Stop Developer Verification
Alright, round 5. If you are unaware, this info was originally on a reddit post on this sub. Unfortunately, right as the post was gaining more traction than it ever had before, reddit's mysterious """filters""" removed my post with no option to restore it. I tried copy and pasting the info to a newer post, but the info itself was in reddit's system so I couldn't post it.
Also, for those wondering why I am hosting this anti-google info on google docs, that's because when I tried to use an altern...

Paying a Dev to Fix This — It’s Not Just a Game for Me
Hey everyone — I’m offering to pay any developer who can help me fix this issue with Critical Ops on MuMu Player.
Here’s the thing:
I used to play this game with my autistic brother, and it became something really special for us. It wasn’t just about gaming — it was how we bonded, laughed, and spent time together. He doesn’t handle change very well, and since the last update, Critical Ops disabled touch mode on emulators, thinking it’s “Play Games on PC.”
Now, the game only allows keyboard and...
