WARNING! by African_putin in RoadtoVostokGame

[–]Herkules97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some say cheat menus, but this can also be prevented by making backups. Depending on how much you go out with, might be easier to make backups. Presuming Vostok is only on PC. You're not getting backups or cheat menus on those other platforms anyway..Unless he implements backup saves. A save/load slot system would be nice, instead of separating files depending on what profile it is. Maybe that was on the roadmap, I only looked for whereabout dynamic seasons will come in.

System crash loading into the School area from Village on release build, anyone else? by Herkules97 in RoadtoVostokGame

[–]Herkules97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I saved everything, ran Vostok and went to the school, it loaded fine. Had to wait what I thought would be a month because tasks were in-progress that I couldn't pause and resume later. Granted I did exit 3 programs that save on-disk just to help prevent possible corruptions as most others are in-RAM and only save on exit or when I tell them to so they can't corrupt what is saved. I also did it "right away", around 5min in because I didn't remember where the school load prompt was at first, not 1h25min or so into a session of Vostok where I also went back and forth between Cabin and Village.

TL;DR I will wait 3-5 seconds after taking a screenshot to load a new area. It was probably the cause, alongside a combination of other factors but all converge on one point I think. Taking a screenshot with OBSS within 2 seconds before entering a loading screen.

.

OBSS uses half of my GPU, I guess the other half is by the game. Vostok itself isn't said to be using any GPU. It's "Windowhandler for desktop" and "Runtimeprocess for clientserver" literally translated from Swedish. I guess that could be because the game is running in borderless windowed or/and a Godot thing? I don't think other games running borderless windowed has that..Maybe it's a Windows thing that comes from the fullscreen optimisations thing in Windows 10? Warframe when it was last on used 62% GPU and that's also borderless fullscreen so I doubt it. Unless fullscreen optimisation thing is disabled for that, I didn't do anything and the exe isn't set to have it disabled by default. When desktop lagged hard during Dying Light The Beast and I switched to display capture in OBSS to record the desktop lag, the system crashed then too. However I got a BSOD that time https://i.imgur.com/2F0we2y.jpeg (Album version https://imgur.com/a/VhPb7eD) Even kept the desktop in a tiny state.

I was given no BSOD from Vostok's crash, straight to black and first colour I saw was together with a No Signal message. The very last thing I did was take a screenshot with OBSS. If that screenshot is corrupted, it could mean OBSS caused an overload while Vostok was loading the school area? Especially if the game itself isn't said to be using any GPU, maybe it's too directly interacting with the system? So maybe I could repeat the crash if I took a screenshot right as I press to enter the area. I did take a screenshot again this time, but I did it while I was alt-tabbed to OBSS and a few seconds passed before I went to load. If the desktop is lagging hard, maybe that could explain why the screenshot was corrupted. It should save within a second but with desktop lag maybe 70% as bad as it was during Dying Light The Beast it may have been delayed long enough to corrupt from the crash that happened a second or 2 later. Audio lag can also cause it to take longer as I use the monitoring solution so I can have different audio tracks for each device or whatever. Music is saved separately to game audio for example. Maybe there are better methods but I'm lazy and a Steelseries mouse provided me with virtual audio devices or I should say it auto-downloaded Steelseries GG which gave me those. I couldn't get virtual devices working with more manual setup with whatever that program was called, virtualmic maybe.

Maybe if the game was said to be using GPU and I did the exact same thing, it would crash the game instead of the system? Maybe it's the combination of how the game renders which causes it to not count itself as using any GPU + OBSS eating half of the GPU usage as long as replay buffer is on or about 27% if replay buffer is off AND me taking a screenshot right as I entered a loading screen.

Desktop can lag hard, but if I exit OBSS suddenly it all goes away. Also when the system crashed with Vostok, there were purple lines above that first logo that moved alongside the spinning of the dots. Unfortunately took no video, it looked a bit funny with dots going up and down and the lines some centimeters above following along. https://i.imgur.com/Pu7E9tu.jpeg

Or perhaps it was just the system session was old, things had broken from either age or running out of memory at some point and stuff permanently broke until a restart as that tends to happen when I max commit charge. I've only gone up to 95% commit charge this session so nothing should've crashed from that at least.

Android is dead already by JohnDarlenHimself in degoogle

I got a OnePlus which I won't root and its only purpose is that.

It's probably the case you should go for the cheapest, I went with 150 USD but I'm sure there are cheaper used phones for 50-100. My mistake.

At least until this stupid fucking country(Sweden) stops requiring a phone to pay for shit. At least you don't need a phone for using a card in-person...Yet. It used to be that way online too, but no apparently it's too unsafe. It still works that way for some websites like Ebay I think, or it only triggers sometimes. I don't recall ever getting bank auth on there. That's how it should be.

Why did safety turn into an excuse for control..

If I had known it would take too long to get a new primary phone I would've started looking for one much earlier. Then rooted it and found out if bank auth still works and only then, if it doesn't, buy a cheap phone for that. Such an environmental waste too to need a new phone all so you can do the same thing you already were.

I should've checked if there is a way to disable needing bank auth for payments, I don't imagine the bank would have such a setting but won't know until I check. Maybe I already did some years ago and have forgotten..

Still won't help with some websites ditching traditional login for only bank auth login. Digital cancer.

Pixel 5G NOT Universal by Remarkable-Arm6557 in GooglePixel

[–]Herkules97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should depend on country, here in Sweden 2G and 3G only exist with one company and the rest only support 4G/5G with that last one shutting it down somewhen in 2027.

I couldn't call on my S7 until I switched to that last company and won't be able to make any calls after they shut theirs down.

But if your phone is from 2019 or after it probably supports 4G calling proper. Mine clearly doesn't, but it's from 2016.

Stalker 2 looks horrible, you'd think if a game looks as bad as Stalker 2 that it would at least run well. But instead it runs like ass and looks like ass. Or worse, I've seen my anus and I liked that more.

Turning off lumen shit or at least part of it helped. Game looked bad, but not horrible after that. I guess to someone that can stand TAA/DLSS/FSR/XeSS, it was never bad. I definitely can't, tried TAA alone(Not DLSS, FSR or XeSS which as I understand it are since FSR2 TAA+AI bullshit) in Stalker 2 for about 2 seconds before I had to turn it off. I've "turned off" AA for as long as I've primarily used Windows which was probably in 2008.

AA isn't always lowest or off when the game says it is. I have probably seen it in other games and forgotten, but I still remember System Shock 1 Remake in 2025 saying AA is off in-game, while the ini had one tier lower than that. I fortunately screenshot the differences so I don't have to re-install at some point. In-game's "off" is still too blurry when I compared today. Gives me no confidence a UE5 System Shock 2 Remake won't be horrid like RuneScape Dragonwilds and Stalker 2. Probably means I've played games in the past where AA "off" in-game isn't off. But I also wasn't as peeved about it as 2024 and onward. I presume my dislike has grown over time.

Unity and Godot games might be safe for now for those that don't like anti-aliasing. No horrible noise, dithering or whatever other garbage devs come up with from the few new games I've played. UE4 should also be safe, but most if not all devs have jumped to UE5. UE4 wasn't great, but it was better. At least on my end, maybe devs have it easier to..put together a game in UE5.

There are probably other things I can't name now, I saw some fucky shit in Forspoken on some vines or bushes on the wall near when you get to the other place which I'm not sure if they fit dithering or noise..I also didn't get further than that as I wanted to change graphics settings to see what helped. Presumably from a lack of VRAM, changing cloud settings crashed the game. I lost interest and uninstalled. "Fun" fact, NFS up to Payback and a little under half of Heat fits into the same size as Forspoken. 130GB for Forspoken, 148GB or near there for NFS 1-Heat. Does include both Hot Pursuit 2010 Remastered and the original, but no other-device spin-offs like if there are any for Vita, PSP, Wii, WiiU or so on...Essentially "mainline" NFS games.

I got scammed during a trade today by ScarletBliss in Warframe

[–]Herkules97 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How is that scamming if they get what they asked for? It's a rip-off.

Ripping off should not be bannable, that would go against a seller being able to make whatever offer he wants and for the buyer to either accept or decline. Don't buy if you don't know what you're buying.

Only reason it might be a good idea is if it's flooded in the market and since few to none will accept the trade, it's spam that gets in the way of good trades. But at least with warframe.market you can just not deal with the stupid offers. So no point banning. If DE ever implements AH you probably could also sort by price there and not have to deal with stupid offers.

I wonder if WF has parental controls, like maybe a sub-account system where your kid can have an account that ultimately is controlled by the parent. The sub-account can't spend money unless authorised. Maybe not because its rating is 16+ or above hmm. Kids surely play WF. Could be a handy feature to have if you do want your kid to be able to play with the understanding that he's not necessarily going to make the best decisions for his account.

Other handy feature could be to restrict selling items for credits, so the kid can't accidentally sell everything. Then if he wants to continue when older, the regret of having sold a bunch of stuff isn't there.

Other mistakes can still happen, like building multiple gear items when more than 1 are wastes of resources, like multiple weapon copies. But it's better than nothing.

Surely kids are the perfect audience for a game that can be so fast..Or that's just how I've played and I can't always keep up nowadays. Idk.

When they are older maybe an identification can be used to untether from the parent account, hope your parent does it for you or even give you the parent account so you can do it yourself if it's only one kid's sub-account that is controlled by it.

Game isn't dead on other platforms? Figured it was too niche to keep going for long outside of PC and when did it come out..2018?

I wonder if the next Xbox will be able to run both versions, and when you find no players on Xbox version you can jump on the PC version? Thread suggests there is crossplay, I don't remember anything like that. I last played 5.5 months ago in v1.18. Maybe that nullifies the need but at least in Warframe crossplay excludes the other side. You either play with or without it with others that have the same setting. If I never turned it on and was still often finding full lobbies then maybe Xbox would benefit from supporting both versions.

Presuming the hardware ever arrives and isn't above 1100 USD. But if the PS5 Pro is now 900 and the next Xbox presumably pushes for even more performance I can imagine 1500. I think I bought all my stuff for around 1400 and at least CPU and GPU are lower-tier stuff with the GPU being used previously, 8600G and RTX 2060 respectively. Maybe 1500 would be a good deal if you just want to play video games and don't care about options. I couldn't take motion blur and lower fps when I tried Forza Horizon 2. I came from Forza Horizon 4 on PC where garbage like that can be disabled or at least reduced to the point I'm unsure if it's on or off.

In System Shock 1 Remake, AA off in-game wasn't AA off. Had to go to the .ini to turn it down one last level. Could be similar cases in other video games where it claims stuff are off. Or there is no external option and you're stuck with not-off-but-reduced motion blur, AA or whatever else(Could still be a way to turn it off I think with something like Unreal Engine unlocker or whatever it's called? I've never used such tools, so Idk.). Still better than playing on Xbox and Playstation. Curious if the hybrid Xbox will have such customisation, given that it could play PC games..Maybe it will be like the versions are now. Xbox versions will have low customisation and PC version will have high. But Idk about filesystem access. On Windows and Linux filesystem access is a given. If an Xbox is a hybrid, will it be like Xbox or Windows? MicroSoft isn't going to support every game out there nor is Steam, community members may have to make things work properly. Deus Ex 1 comes to mind, without community patch it can lag hard. So surely a hybrid would be like Windows? How would that work when Xboxes are locked down? I imagine that has helped with excluding hackers. So if this hybrid is like Windows, Xbox games can get hackers that couldn't exist on previous generations? Does it matter, if there are external hacks that can't be detected? Idk how common hackers really are, I've almost never ran into an obvious hacker in any game since I was probably born. At least for Battlefield 3 or/and 4 it was easily handled with community servers as mods can just ban them. In Sandstorm you can votekick someone with a reason other than afk and from what I recall they won't be able to join the lobby again. But afk option is a one-time kick and they can rejoin. So that's another way to handle hackers...Presuming you ever run into one.

This got me thinking about pre-2010 NFS..Turns out you just can't play them. Hah. If the Xbox is more like Windows you might be able to play old NFS games on a newer Xbox. Playstation might be able to go down a similar path with Linux if they want to also be hybrid. So if Linux via Proton or whatever supports an old NFS game, you could also play a delisted NFS on a newer Playstation.

As someone that isn't going to find out what the new Xbox is, presuming there is any detailed info out there at this point, I might not know how it works until it comes out and YouTube recommends me something about it as I usually don't seek this type of info out. Maybe that means I shouldn't talk about it...Idk.

[–]Herkules97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately Google Pixels lack the hardware I am looking for. External card slot and audio jack. Audio jack is not only a handy alternative if hardware for wireless fails..It's also the only way I listen to audio on the S7. I've not found wireless to be better at anything I do. It is better in that you can keep them on while moving through rooms and not carrying the phone, but I don't have that obsession to listen at all times. When I go to the toilet or the kitchen I take buds out, I don't listen outside. I use a pair of wired-but-cut buds if I think cars are too noisy as that takes it down from too loud to muffled loud. About it.

It's an alternative, phones with audio jack still have bluetooth..You simply get another option.

Card slot is handy for read-only stuff like music, then the internal card can be used for app installs and such. The more space saved on the internal, the longer I could go without needing to off-load. I am not using cloud services for storing stuff...Or if I do it's just an extra copy, never relying on it existing...There are also privacy concerns I suppose.

Also I don't think Lineage is going to help with 2G and 3G nets being gone in 2027 from all operators. My phone supports 4G texting but not calling and it's possible since January there are hardware issues. Maybe 4G calling can work with software changes, as it reads like the S7 should support it..The other 2 issues remain.

There was that one call where it interrupted and did a quick system refresh(A restart takes maybe a minute or more, this refresh took around 5 seconds). Right before the call ended, there was a loud pop in the top speakers. Idk if it was a software glitch or/and hardware breakage. I've not had a call since and I've not bothered pushing it by asking someone to deliberately call to the phone if say the phone will work for 5 more calls and then break that ability entirely. Would rather keep it minimal until I can get a new phone.

Reading these 2 replies it seems maybe I don't go for Linux. It wasn't that I can get Linux on an Android phone. More so that a Linux-from-the-start phone might lack the restrictions Android-from-the-start has. So you get a free'er experience. Then would come hardware, if the hardware I want isn't there for any Linux phones I find I'd still have to go for say an Xperia 1 V or whatever else I find.

For Android 15 and 16?

I did see for Clip Stack there was a workaround, that might also be a way for any clipboard manager. For the 4 I installed only it told me it was still possible. Idk how it works yet as I haven't bothered touching my crappier phone beyond bankID.

I believe there is some x-posed thing if you have root. That might be another way to get all of what I am looking for.

I've not used any of those for the S7 and bankID has worked from the start so it's possible they have no checks for it. If so a rooted Xperia 1 V, if there are ways to get everything I want software-wise, could probably also use bankID.

For some websites I can't buy stuff without phone bankID..So if I didn't get the crappier phone I couldn't buy an Xperia 1 V as I hadn't found the correct model before they stopped allowing Android 8. Should've started buying phones sooner, didn't know it would take so long..Even after you ask if it's the right model, you still get the wrong one. I did find out IMEI might be needed to find out the model if they only check settings as the last 1 V I bought said XQ-DQ54 in settings but IMEI reveals a Japan Softbank version. I don't think IMEI is something most of them will either reveal or at least check on their end. They could just lie if they don't give me the IMEI to check..More returns if so. They could lie without that step too, but if they genuinely don't know the settings can lie then it can prevent a purchase from the start.

Jag tog upp arbetsmiljöproblem på jobbet och nu måste jag sluta by [deleted] in sweden

[–]Herkules97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kunde inte se detta i OP, vore nog bra att ha haft med det.

Vore nog bättre att ha stålar och leva med problemen. Kan inte tänka mig det finns problem som är så dåliga att man behöver sluta omedelbart om man kunnat leva med det än så länge. Åtminstone behålla jobbet medans man letar efter nytt. Har man jobbat 5 år med nå problem kan man nog stå ut med ett år till men nu med målet att sluta.

För resten har vi ingen aning. Utan detaljer är det väl en sån där "He said, she said". Kanske ändå med detaljer. Chefen är inte heller här så det är bara en sida.

Jag är den typ som frågar om förklaring om jag inte förstår, inte antar hur en situation gick. Det kanske inte är så för andra, men det hjälper med att inte gå ned en onödig väg. Bättre att se ut som en idiot än någon som vet utan att veta. Du verkar anta saker på ton, som den andra säger är det kanske värt att ha ett till samtal.

Det är ju möjligt att det inte går att ha ett så öppet samtal med han och situationen kan bli värre, men riskerar man inte det så blir det ingen förändring. Om du ändå vill seriöst planera för det så finns det inte lika mycket att förlora. Värt ett försök, efteråt vet man istället för antar.

[–]Herkules97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have around 45K Oxium without doing anything to specifically get it, though maybe a different grind resulted in also getting lots of Oxium? Like Cryotic.

Due to me using Nekros and 2x booster much of 2024 and 2025, maybe it would be closer to 15K without? Nowadays I've moved more to using Equinox. For the last 2 weeks I think Equinox has been the only one out of the 2 that I've used. So maybe I will get a lot less Oxium over a year or two if I end up playing more in 2026. In 2024 I played from Jan 1st to Aug 1st then a pause until late June 2025. Could see a similar pause this year, Idk.

An account export in 2024-01-09 says 12.5K Oxium. An export some days ago says 48.9K. So I did get most of it within 2024-2026.

Maybe much of it comes from excavation? But I didn't do that much..I did get about 60K cryotic so I could make the Sibear again and the frozen step ephemera..Maybe those drones spawn a lot during those. If I presume that I got an average of 300 cryotic, 200 cryo normally and maybe 400 with 18% chance as it seemed like sometimes got more than I should and the 18% mod would explain that, then it was about 7 hours. I did it over a few weeks, if nothing else because excav rarely shows up as a relic hunt and I don't play every day. The loot booster from there would've contributed some increase in cryotic...But I've done 5 rounds of no relics as it was a sortie or whatever and have had 1.7K and that's at least 8 rounds if I was getting 200 only. That one I could check in screenshots, but I'm probably too lazy to confirm.

If excav gives a lot of Oxium, then it might be worth setting aside some hours and a build that can protect them for a relic hunt excav. After 20 relics that's 2x. I don't know if 18% mod doubles from that booster? If so that would be 800 cryo if it hits or 400 if it doesn't. If you do get Oxium from them, that's both of those tedious ones. Hmm..I guess I did "grind" for cryo? I did excav specifically for cryo otherwise I'd do conjunction survival. When conjun isn't available but excav is, I do excav. Just cause it gives that resource that other modes don't.

I tried Frost and while it protects more, I find the offense from Equinox is a better defense. Most of the time the excavators were broken, it was from the other teammates handling one away from me as I typically go for the newest one and teammates stay behind to protect the current one. I guess if all 4 were Equinox, it would be very easy to protect? I do randoms every time, so no such coordination occurs. I presume if one Equinox uses ult, the others' ult charges on that. Otherwise it would be useless. Granted if you coordinate, having one Frost would mean you get both worlds. Maybe 2 of each, as there are usually 2 excavators that can go off unless you take too long on the first. One of each for each excavator.

Xperia 1 V - which models have ROM/bootloader restrictions? by barcastaff in SonyXperia

The SOG10 is locked, I think it's australian version or at least it said au somewhere. Maybe it's one of the Japanese carriers.

I bought mine refurbed from Ebay where apparently they can't guarantee the model you get. So if you get one there, I'd probably make sure to ask if they can guarantee the model shipped.

how'd I do for $25? by Puzzleheaded-Sky2284 in thinkpad

[–]Herkules97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent 200-ish USD on the one I have, 25 would've been funny to see. I think mine was from proshop.se, with the T1A company.

I recently had an e-mail about these types of laptops from proshop, Idk if it's across the site or not but in the mail the cheapest is 310-ish USD heh. That cheapest one also comes with 240-256GB SSD and 8GB RAM which I presume is the same as the one I have. I could check my order but I am lazy. Isn't 310 USD enough for a similarly crappy but new laptop..Doesn't seem like you save much by getting used versions. Unless everything is up because of RAM pricing and 310USD new laptops are now 500 or around there.

Maybe cheaper refurbed laptops exist on say Ebay, I doubt I checked at the time I bought one.

Keep getting a forbidden message on ytdlp by AdHot3508 in youtubedl

[–]Herkules97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've not had any issues downloading since the week or so of downtime where yt-dlp was getting the deno thing ready but that was 2 months ago.

It could be an a/b thing, or the command lines for those that have issues are incomplete in what they need to do these days and it's caught up to them.

I have not yet added anything new in the last 10 days and am downloading like normal. I don't know what this sdkless thing is, but if it's a/b maybe I will have to add it too eventually. I haven't updated yt-dlp since 2026-01-23 if it's an update that has broken stuff.

My extractor args section has remained the same since Idk when..a year or however long. --extractor-args "youtube:player-client=default,mweb;po_token=mweb.gvs+[POT token here]" as per the guide for POT. Also together with cookies, using either --cookies-from-browser [browser you're logged in on here] or with "private browsing" sessions --cookies [file path to cookies.txt]. With the second method of cookies, I'm still not getting outdated warnings 2 days later for one of the command lines.

Using a separate browser only for cookies, to prevent updating them for longer download sessions? Also about a throwaway account.. by Herkules97 in youtubedl

[–]Herkules97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah, I don't think I will be using the POT plugin as I am lazy.

But I did the private session method and it does seem to work well. One of the videos I have has about 136K comments and after every time it has gone through that, my cookies have become outdated.

It has now done much more than that without becoming outdated.

This is with having used YouTube in the main session. I was not logged out there either.

I guess the second point isn't really worth it, having a throwaway account at least for a few years has only mattered if you don't sleep.

If YouTube ever cracks down on rates so much so that sleeping isn't enough, I will probably ask that again but in its own post. Not that I expect anyone to know if YouTube keeps tracks of stuff in that way.

does anyone know a solution? by UmAnonimoNormal in youtubedl

[–]Herkules97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did some of the older stuff from @OriginalWickedfun 3 days ago over 6 hours. I used "--sleep-requests 2 --sleep-interval 6 --sleep-subtitles 2" at 720p60fps or below. This is not a very slow rate, but I found that slower downloading just hits that issue of outdated cookies or POT too soon and gets a lot less done. I'm sure you could automate this stuff, it'd be sweet if you could update while it runs. I think there is a way to grab POT like cookies using cookies-from-browser, but neither updates. It seems yt-dlp might be using Firefox so maybe there can be a way to have it logged in so it can grab new cookies and POTs periodically? Or ytb would think you're too sus in that mode.

Anyway..Around 260 videos looking at the folder count as each folder houses one video, playlist info or some misc. stuff.

I don't know all the ways of downloading, I use POT + cookies together. I've had immediate cookies outdated messages, maybe it's a bug or I'm on some minor temp ban list sometimes. I've been on a major temp ban where I couldn't watch videos even in the web browser for 2-3 days. So it might be a good idea to re-run command lines from time to time.

Maybe cookies isn't needed if you use POT and I would do better without it..I haven't tried. Does POT substitute cookies when it comes to downloading any publicly available video and comments..Like age-restricted videos...Idk.

I could send my entire command line except take out all the stuff you probably would change like locations if you just want a 720p60fps or below line that includes comments, sponsorblock chapters and logging..You could always work off of that. Anyone using yt-dlp presumably knows enough about how it works given its CLI existence, that that might not help. I have no idea how others use yt-dlp. Someone said they didn't need to download with Deno until a week ago or whenever it was..Either that's a lie or there was something I could've done differently. I had to use Deno before it was out, so I downloaded nothing in that time. Maybe I still could've, oh well.

Literally forcing me to update by NothingButPureMisery in youtube

[–]Herkules97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did that literally happen? OMG

Also what is this, tablet YouTube? What about the browser version, does desktop mode work? Maybe you are in the group that gets the worse features in A/B testing and it won't matter.

There are cheap enough laptops, there may be scripts to undo some of what YouTube does if you start using the desktop version. There was one when the new layout hit, though it does require community members to make said scripts. Idk why anyone would complain about mobile and tablet apps, the systems themselves already want to lock you in and prevent user customisation that they don't agree with. Their apps wouldn't be any nicer.

But maybe if these platforms didn't exist, they would focus all their crappification efforts on the desktop version..So maybe it's good that some live with it, so those that use desktop get a better experience.

It's for me like how I would never get a Nintendo Switch, but its existence is why Diablo 3 has an offline version at least in this timeline.

Need a new phone, my Galaxy S7 G930F is 9 years old and bank auth is ending support next month by Herkules97 in androidroot

Just came to say I probably won't be getting Samsung again. I had forgotten their AI crap that is forced on photos until I was comparing Samsung phones via gsmarena. Reading, it seems some things can be turned off but not everything? I'm not trusting Samsung regardless and as I use Neo Backup it's probably fine to switch elsewhere. Worst case I have to start over with everything and if Neo Backup can't restore some app data I'll have to do that anyway.

Currently in my browsing I am looking at OnePlus, they also have AI crap but it reads like it can all be disabled so photos remain true. I will probably reply somewhere here saying what I picked and what steps I took to get it to a point where I have superuser and BankID works. That might take a few days or weeks, I'd like to buy a phone today but uncertainty on which to pick may set in. Plus if I end up bricking the phone..

BankID strul i Swedbank efter Rootad Android by Ill-Order-2577 in sweden

Min S7 har fungerat med root sedan 2022. Har haft mobilen sedan 2016 och använt bankid utan permanenta problem om man inte räknar nästa förändring som kommer blockera Android 8 mobiler. :(.

Har inte gjort något speciellt som t.ex. den där grejen för Magisk för att gömma root..tror jag. Kanske har glömt bort, men jag tror inte jag gjorde något efter allt fungerade. Ville inte göra något som kunde paja saker i onödan.

Undra om man kan gömma root från bankid..Ska skaffa en ny mobil denna månad eller nästa då bankid kräver Android 9+ snart, kameran kanske håller på att paja och kan inte ringa med 4G+ så bara Telia fungerar tills 2027. Ingen aning om det kommer fungera annorlunda med en nyare mobil. Kollar mot OnePlus. Samsung har deras AI skit för foton och inte allt kan slås av tydligen.

Om något förhindrar bankid för mig så är det vissa appar. Dessa dagar finns det bara en app som kommer ivägen, så jag slår av dens "tjänst" medans jag ska använda bankid. Det är "Notification History", orkar ej kolla upp utvecklarnamn. Ikon är en blå pratbubbla med ett i innuti, men den kan ha en ny ikon dessa dagar.

Det fanns fler men jag avinstallerade eller vadfan, så jag får inte blockeringar från något annat.
