Look it up on YouTube. Or get the free trial if you want. It works I’ve seen him do it live…

This also includes the not-as-ultrawide band that covers farther distances and penetrates obstacles more easily and isn't as fast. If you're contacted to the actually UW towers, you'll get speeds up to around 3 GB. And this connection is more stable with the antenna gate (the big plastic bar on the right of the phone) pointed at the tower with direct line of sight to it.

Reply to Anyone know when they add more states? by 2Adude
You are not missing much. I am in one of these states and have set it up. At the moment there literally are only some very specific TSA airport checkpoints that can use them. So it only would use useful if you are flying from stay Phoenix to Baltimore. Even then you still need you physical wallet card in case your plane is assigned to a gate that might be on a different checkpoint that does not have this capability.
The state cops don’t know about these for Terry stops, let alone retail, restaurants, bars which might need to check ID.

Look up imyfone anyto. It’s not free but he has it and it works. Just knowing if there’s a way I can be able to tell if the location hes sharing is a spoofed one or the real one.

14.8 JB here. I used Relocate Reborn. Free. Works OK but instal is clunky (idk where dev has repo at this point either).
Never pay for this stuff.

Reply to Can we please normalise the fact putting your wet device in rice isn’t a smart idea? Rice isn’t a magical product. Instead put it in a dry area with sufficient airflow! by [deleted]
So many people in this thread (probably including OP too) who think that people actually try to dry a literal dripping wet phone with rice…
Rice absorbs moisture in the air. So if you’ve dropped your electronic device in water and want to be sure it gets completely dried out even on the inside, you would dry the outside of said device first, and then place it inside a container of rice or another moisture absorbing material (like cat litter). You would leave it in there for at least 24 hours or more depending on how sure you want to be that it is dry inside.
OP is not wrong either, as air flow in a dry room should also do the trick. The caveat is that you need to be sure the room is dry enough to allow the moisture inside the device to evaporate away.
That’s why it’s easier to use a bag or container filled with a moisture absorbent(rice) because it’s easier to achieve a dry environment inside a small container than it is to maintain the same level of dryness in a room.

No I look at the screen or can hear the change in volume though, I don’t need tactile feedback for that. People were also pissed when they got rid of the home button but that was obviously (in my opinion) a very good move.

There are no location spoofers unless your bro is jailbroken.

You look at your volume buttons when you press them?

I guess I liked having F-droid as an alternative to the Google store. And there was some way to disable ads in everything. I don’t like the stupid Tab for turning your phone silent. And yeah, I was used to the UI with Android. Took me a few months to realize how to adjust the screen brightness lol.

You could always use the volume buttons to take pictures though.

Idk the MacBook trackpad haptic feedback is pretty fricken good at simulating clicks. I think that typing is an area you want feedback, but most things that you are looking at when you do them do not need tactile feedback, and to the extent they do haptics work fine.

I was excited to finally move everything to USB-C this year but the more I read about this phone the more I want to wait a year and see what the next one looks like. Also to give this one some time to prove itself.

Probably defect OIS. Hope it’s still under warranty otherwise it’s probably going to cost a pretty penny.
