When the fuck will it end? This is getting stupid. I was using my 4a as an MP3 player after i upgraded to the 6a, but it closes the player within 10 minutes EVERY TIME now, because that battery update basically chopped of 7 of the 8 limbs that thing had. I guess that’s e-waste now. Oh wait, i can switch over to my main device, that will for sure work as an MP3 player, because i payed 400 euro bucks for it.
#NOPE.
I guess being an MP3 player is only accessible for 25 euro devices that are not connected to the google borg collective. Stop fucking killing my phones you dickweeds, what the actual fuck.
Pixels have quite a few custom ROMs you can stuff on them ez solution.
Don't custom ROMs also push Google's software updates anyway?
Depends which ones. Graphene for instance doesn't automatically push whatever Google does.
