Revenue doesn't equal profit but many companies are using multiple schemes to show that they are not profitable. So we also need to check the revenue. A company can just increase the CEO salary to eat up all the profit.

I saw a documentary where a German millionnaire was bragging about going to work with 43° flu to make you believe that he worked very hard to get rich.

Like the US will shut down a multi billion industry.

Why not? Some companies do have a fraction of Spotify users and have around 100 software engineers. Things do not run by themselves. Also they are in many countries so you need to keep up with legal changes...

I think you can selfhost the sync server.

For a while I thought I was in the onion community and couldn't understand why many comments didn't catch that. And then I scrolled up and saw nottheonion.

I know that 3000mAh is low but it wasn't the case back in 2017. The issue is that I changed the battery but still lasts the same time I the previous ones.

Thanks. I need to have root to remove the pre-installed applications and remove ads.

Yes, it is possible with play integrity bypass module for magisk.

It is working on my current phone and in fact I did the config just yesterday after upgrading to LineagesOs 21.

Thank you for the answer.

It will seem that I am asking to do that job for me but I am asking to have some advice choosing between those devices. There are many devices in that list that will satisfy my requirements and I will need to choose between them.

Some apps implement other checks. Mine checks whatever you replaced the stock webview (checking the package name). So sometimes it is challenging to find those checks to bypass them.

 

Hi,

I will certainly buy a new android phone in the next month and I will need help choosing which one.

My requirements : has support from LineagesOs, ability to root, good battery, NFC and Google Pay should work even after root, camera should be at least OK, price under 200€ (or even 150€). I have seen devices in that range that satisfy almost all the requirements.

My current phone is Mi Mix 2 from 2019 and still usable but battery drain in one day even though I don't use it that much. I changed battery recently but nothing changed so I am always carrying an external battery. So a similar phone with bigger battery and good camera can be a good candidate. I always bought Xiaomi devices and I don't know how are the other brands.
