Save CyanogenMod app: Am I an activist, crazy, or both? In the Market.

Digg it! http://digg.com/software/Save_CyanogenMod_application_now_on_Android_Market
This will get the cause more publicity and pressure Google. It didn't quite work for that tether stuff, but this is Cyanogen we're talking about. It is a bit sensationalist, but we want at least a detailed explanation from Google (a re-licensing of the Google app binaries would be ideal) and this is one way to try to get one.
CyanogenMod is an unofficial, donation supported modification for the open source Android operating system. On September 24, 2009, Google sent a cease and desist letter to Cyanogen (Steve Kondik), demanding that he cease distribution of CyanogenMod because it includes several closed source Google applications like Gmail and Google Talk.
As users, we believe that while Google was within its legal rights to send this cease and desist order, this letter contradicts Google Android's own open source spirit. Additionally, the distribution of Google applications actually increases adoption of Google products, bringing Google more profit.
Because Google applications are such a core part of the Android experience, we believe that they should be available for free distribution.
To let your voice be heard, please post a comment on this application's Android Market page.

wow an app? cyanogen if you ever had a doubt in your mind people didnt apprecaite you and your work, this is proof we do

Congratulations on creating yet-another useless application on the Market. No, I will not download your app or comment.
Please reconsider your actions. Android needs all the support it can get, not knee-jerk reactionary polls spreading possible misinformation without the full facts.

I think this one is quite less sensationalist than the last one (and I still stand by the last one). This seems to be the general consensus of this community. Can you point out where I did not give the full facts? I did consider Google's position and offered a counterargument. I kept the whole thing short, and of course it's going to be biased - I'm speaking for one position, after all.

Really, it's just an application to get Google to react somehow. Of course it's reactionary. Are you going to go and rate this application a 1/5 and try to "teach" those on the Android Market my wrongdoings? Google is alienating one of its core audiences (developers and enthusiasts!) here. If anything, their actions were bad for Android.

supporting Cyanogen..

It's great that you are open minded about 'open source spirit'.
Can I have your bank account number? Or please provide details on how your Google account links to your checkout account for me. What? You don't want to provide it? Why are you against open-source?
Market will never be open-source because it is a commerce application. Is that so hard to understand?
Further an unreleased version is being redistributed that will cause confusion to the general public. It was licensed to Open Handset Alliance members only.
Why don't I have the latest Market? Why doesnt Google love me? My friend has it! Oh the applications I download from new Market seem to be stuck and its bugged.. why doesnt Google support me on it?
For these reasons and more it was C&D. I'm sure Android team will give him a personal call and talk it through. Stop being so reactionary.
Sorry to be harsh but you have contributed nothing to this community except get people to downlaod your app, increasing your profile. For that I wish you well, but as I said I will not download nor comment on your app because I think its a great idea in intention but totally misplaced because you haven't thought it through.

Did I ever ask for the Market to be open source? I said the C&D went against the open source spirit, which promotes sharing code (even in the form of binaries, which are better than nothing, if necessary) and expanding the community in this way. The Android Market is one central part of the Android experience, and I believe that we should push for a redistribution license for all developers. Of course some sources must be protected (though as a developer I will argue that an open source implementation of the Market is certainly viable without compromising user data).
I don't really care about my profile - my pseudonym here is different from my name on the Android Market, even. You'll have to take my word for it that that is not my agenda.

[email protected] lame, im downloading this app ASAP

I'll take your word for it, because your response sounds reasoned. But by reading your response, I then also have to ask : Why are we reacting to this?
The new Market will be released when it's done. Until then, only those who have a license (such as Open Handset Alliance members such as phone manufacturers) will be able to use and trial it.
It's not like Google won't release it. They will. They want to. But they just can't deal with the general public having problems with their commerce system. They also can't let it be open-sourced. Sorry but thats just the way they are thinking, I'm sure.
I would rather accept Google's decision anyday, then that of Apple. I don't want Android to have the reputation of hurting developers, because it is so opposite to the truth, which is why I'm so dismayed. Sorry about that.

Android is great, and Google has spoiled us, which is probably why we get such a strong reaction from developers and users. But I'll leave this up for a bit and see what happens, and if the things stated inside the app get irrelevant or inaccurate, I'll update the app or pull it.

Google. Why you gotta be such a @$$HAT???

I can't download from the market now but this is ****ed up. Looks like Google has been listening to it's dentist and taking an APPLE a day.

i'm sorry i have to give it to tommypickles yes this is a let down, but Google is trying to protect a core peace of there software the market is one of the definitive parts of this OS. after surveying the facts i can find i have to side with Google's decisions. I personally left the iphone world for a reason and the main reason is the dev nightmare that is the app store on iphone. As i developer i see there side, i also see the users side yes we got spoiled by the new market and now they want to say hold on there.
they are merely trying to protect the core experience that is android OS.

Hmm some people forget that if cyanogen (the stablest rom out their) goes what makes you think that google will just stop at him...

yes please google back off n let cyanogen be. he didnt steal this is suppose 2 be open source. it was put out there 2 be used. please stop hating on cyanogen

"Yo GOOGLE, I'm really happy for you, I'll let you finish, but Cyanogen has one of the best roms of all time. One of the best roms of all time!"
osokrayzay com

tommypickles sounds like he got his ass destroyed by a huge black dildo and is mad about something else so he decides to point out some minuscule opinion about cyanogen just so he can feel better about himself.

This has a snowballs chance in .. well you know the rest.

Finally, an ORGANIZED place for cooks to put their ROMs

I am working on a website where XDA cooks along with others can post their custom ROMs. I always tought this site is a disorganised mess if you are a newcomer. I built this solution from scratch and it's fully dynamic (PHP+MySQL). I'm almost done with the basics (registering, submitting, browsing...) but I'm still open to suggestions.
Here are a few screenshots. I'd love to get some opinions.

I'm also looking for a complete list of Windows Mobile devices so I can list them in the catalog. I already have HTC devices, but I'd need the devices from Acer, HP and the rest too.

So, what do you people think?

Too many usernames
Hi,
That's a tidy looking design, from a user point of view I like XDA Developers because I sign in, and have access to some user support, software downloads, and ROM updates - without having to sign-up for another website...
I really like the idea of a dedicated portal for ROM updates, and detailed instructions for newbies - how about using your portal as an affiliate to XDA developers? So, for instance, I would use the same credentials to log into either site, or even a shared cookie / user database?
For obvious reasons I do not like to use the same credentials between sites, so for you to broker an arrangement with the administrator of this website for sharing the credential database / profiles / and web site traffic would make life for people like me easier....
If I were the administrator of this website with a large following I'd jump at the opportunity for portals and shared resources on other hosts to boost popularity...
There is a new portal on xda-developers coming soon, perhaps they'll address this?

there's no place like xda for ROMs, i'll pass. nice effort though.

Unless they bring you on as a contractor to add something to their existing vBulletin install, having a new 3rd party website access their user database is a major security worry. I guess they could create a user authentication API for you to plug into but that'll still be something to be concerned of both from XDA and existing XDA users trusting a new website.
Also with the gray shade legality of these non-MS authorized ROMs, I wouldn't expect their stance to be that accomodating to this. Perhaps you should consider focusing on helping them orginize these new software releases created by the XDA community. That's even harder to sort thru than the ROMs.
Just giving honest opinion from a fellow web developer.

I mostly made this to practice PHP while creating something that could potentially maintain itself financially (domain name+hosting).
I want to provide a way for newcomers and old users to easily find and compare ROMs for their devices. The forum as it actually is is not exactly a welcoming place for those looking for step-by-step guides and organized information. As for software releases, I'd be glad to support them to and even host them if I can afford it. Once the main frame is built, it can and will be reused for Android and software.
As for working with XDA-developers, I'd love it. I aim to integrate XDA-devs as tightly as possible with the rest of the site. However, credentials will stay separate from this site. It's not secure as stated above and might require ridiculous amounts of work from me and the (possibly disinterested) XDA-developers admin. Yet, there will be XDA-developers integration to a certain level.
deviceroms will be a tool, not a community.

I like this concept, please make it real soon and use a better design and simpler design for it

I tried to make it as simple and efficient as possible; navigation is simple, registration does not require email confirmation and everything is listed as to make browsing easier for a "ROM shopper". There WILL be moderation as I opted for full HTML support in the description.
As for the delivery date, expect it to be soon enough. I've got only a few work hours and I've done 75 percent of the job after already after 40 days.
The site as it is works but lacks critical features (editing existing listings, rating ROMs and changing account password).

If you need help with maintenance or moderating, let me know. Btw a small forum wouldn't hurt,too. At least a tool to comment on roms will be nice. People might read the reviews of them before downloading.
All the best !

nice job
really hope that you finhish the site soon

Hey, you just gave me an idea! I know there are a lot of support/bug report posts in the ROM threads. This will also happen in the comments, so I'll include a dropdown box where they can select the comment's nature so they can be filtered.

You're welcome

That's a great idea.

You should consider DIV tabs separating between comments/bug reports. Also you should consider doing a multi-faceted rating system:
Speed
Stability
Free Memory
Built-in Applications
Style/Visual
Then allow people to search and filter based on date plus the rating criteria they are looking for. (ie. within last 3 months that have average 5-star speed ratings)

Also please please please make sure your coding is secure.
The last person who posted on the board showing off that he made a windows mobile application blog/website had made his site public with major security flaws (SQL injection). If I didn't point it to him that there was a major flaw, it might have been left open and someone could have stolen all the e-mails and login info. Since it was a custom job he could have also stored the passwords in plaintext in the database, so any hacker using sql injection could have gotten XDA member's e-mail addresses and passwords which could be horrible if the XDA member is the type that uses the same password on multiple websites.

That's a great idea. There is no ratings system yet, so that might be a cool idea. I still can't figure out a better way than storing individual votes in a table to limit users to a single vote per ROM.

I'm a starter but I am well aware of the risks of SQL and script injection attacks. I am actively reading on the topic in order to prevent these before going live.

Yeah that's the best way to do it. You could always have a CRON script to run everynight to parse the votes and store that value in a separate "ROM_Rating_Summary" table.
ROM_ID, RatingCount, AverageSpeedRating, AverageStabilityRating, AverageMemoryRating, AverageFeatureRating, AverageStyleRating, TotalSpeedPoints, TotalStabilityPoints, TotalMemoryPoints, TotalFeaturePoints, TotalStylePoints
So the cron will add up all the SpeedPoints from each user rating (4+3+5+2+3+4+4) and then divide it by RatingCount. 4+3+5+2+3+4+4 = 25 / 7 = 3.57 avg rating in Speed category. The cron will add the last days' new rating points and increment the rating count and then you divide and get the revised average rating. By parsing only the last day's worth of comments this way, it should be fast to loop thru even 1000 ROMs.
Have fun with it.

Alright folks! I'm 90% done! Once I get the BBCode support working, I'll upload it online for bug testing

Got this Email from Facebook. What should I do?

I got this email from Facebook.
Facebook said:
NOTICE OF PENDING CLASS ACTION AND NOTICE OF PROPOSED SETTLEMENT
ANGEL FRALEY V. FACEBOOK, INC.
You are receiving this e-mail because you may have been featured in a "Sponsored Story" on Facebook prior to December 3, 2012.
A federal court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.
Why did I get this notice?
This Notice relates to a proposed settlement ("Settlement") of a class action lawsuit ("Action") filed against Facebook relating to a particular Facebook feature called "Sponsored Stories." According to available records, you may be a "Class Member."
What is the Action about?
The Action claims that Facebook unlawfully used the names, profile pictures, photographs, likenesses, and identities of Facebook users in the United States to advertise or sell products and services through Sponsored Stories without obtaining those users' consent. Facebook denies any wrongdoing and any liability whatsoever. No court or other entity has made any judgment or other determination of any liability.
What is a Sponsored Story?
Sponsored Stories are a form of advertising that typically contains posts which appeared on facebook.com about or from a Facebook user or entity that a business, organization, or individual has paid to promote so there is a better chance that the posts will be seen by the user or entity's chosen audience. Sponsored Stories may be displayed, for example, when a Facebook user interacts with the Facebook service (including sub-domains, international versions, widgets, plug-ins, platform applications or games, and mobile applications) in certain ways, such as by clicking on the Facebook "Like" button on a business's, organization's, or individual's Facebook page. Sponsored Stories typically include a display of a Facebook user's Facebook name (i.e., the name the user has associated with his or her Facebook account) and/or profile picture (if the user has uploaded one) with a statement describing the user's interaction with the Facebook service, such as "John Smith likes UNICEF," "John Smith played Farmville," or "John Smith shared a link."
What relief does the Settlement provide?
Facebook will pay $20 million into a fund that can be used, in part, to pay claims of Class Members (including Minor Class Members) who appeared in a Sponsored Story. Each participating Class Member who submits a valid and timely claim form may be eligible to receive up to $10. The amount, if any, paid to each claimant depends upon the number of claims made and other factors detailed in the Settlement. No one knows in advance how much each claimant will receive, or whether any money will be paid directly to claimants. If the number of claims made renders it economically infeasible to pay money to persons who make a timely and valid claim, payment will be made to the not-for-profit organizations identified on the Settlement website at www.fraleyfacebooksettlement.com (if clicking on the link does not work, copy and paste the website address into a web browser). These organizations are involved in educational outreach that teaches adults and children how to use social media technologies safely, or are involved in research of social media, with a focus on critical thinking around advertising and commercialization, and particularly with protecting the interests of children.
In addition to monetary relief, Facebook will (a) revise its terms of service (known as the "Statement of Rights and Responsibilities" or "SRR") to more fully explain the instances in which users agree to the display of their names and profile pictures in connection with Sponsored Stories; (b) create an easily accessible mechanism that enables users to view, on a going-forward basis, the subset of their interactions and other content on Facebook that have been displayed in Sponsored Stories (if any); (c) develop settings that will allow users to prevent particular items or categories of content or information related to them from being displayed in future Sponsored Stories; (d) revise its SRR to confirm that minors represent that their parent or legal guardian consents to the use of the minor's name and profile picture in connection with commercial, sponsored, or related content; (e) provide parents and legal guardians with additional information about how advertising works on Facebook in its Family Safety Center and provide parents and legal guardians with additional tools to control whether their children's names and profile pictures are displayed in connection with Sponsored Stories; and (f) add a control in minor users' profiles that enables each minor user to indicate that his or her parents are not Facebook users and, where a minor user indicates that his or her parents are not on Facebook, Facebook will make the minor ineligible to appear in Sponsored Stories until he or she reaches the age of 18, until the minor changes his or her setting to indicate that his or her parents are on Facebook, or until a confirmed parental relationship with the minor user is established.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OPTIONS IN THIS SETTLEMENT
SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM This is the only way to be eligible to receive a payment, if the Court orders payment to Class Members. Deadline: May 2, 2013
EXCLUDE YOURSELF This is the only option that allows you to retain the ability to file your own lawsuit about the legal claims in this case. Deadline: May 2, 2013
OBJECT Write to the Court about why you object to (i.e., don't like) the Settlement and think it shouldn't be approved. Deadline: May 2, 2013
GO TO THE "FAIRNESS HEARING"
The Court will hold a "Fairness Hearing" to consider the Settlement, the request for attorneys' fees and expenses of the lawyers who brought the Action ("Class Counsel"), and the class representatives' request for service awards for bringing the Action.
You may, but are not required to, speak at the Fairness Hearing about any Objection you filed. If you intend to speak at the Fairness Hearing, you must follow the procedures stated on the Settlement website to notify the Court and parties of your intent when you serve your Objection.
Hearing Date: June 28, 2013 at 10:00 a.m.
DO NOTHING You will not receive a payment, even if the Court orders payment to Class Members. You will also be giving up your right to bring your own lawsuit related to the claims in the Action. You may be eligible to receive the non-monetary benefits of the Settlement, if the Settlement is finally approved. No deadline

[APP] M104 - Battery percentage, clipboard manager, network-traffic (no root)

Hey buddies,
I want to share my new app with you.
The app is not a "Nexus-only" project, but I developed it mostly for myself to get the battery indicator (%-text) back on my phone After I implemented that, I thought a proper clipboard-managment would be a nice feature, too. Many of you know LG's solution.
The reason why I'm providing this app here in the Nexus forum is that the app's theme (colors, layouts) is a replica of the stock Android-look (vanilla) - please don't take the word "replica" too serious, I just tried my very best
However, if you're interested to give it a try, you will...
.
Please note:
The app is free-of-charge and doesn't contain ads (I don't want to waste traffic and battery by shipping ads to you - maybe I will add a premium-key in a couple of days).
If you want to support the project (as translator, tester), please send me a mail.

Thank you for the great app,,,,
may I suggest,if possible, that you leave the data and clip tray up to the user to add or just keep the battery percentage by it self.

Hey cturbos, thanks for your compliment. I'm not completely sure what you mean. Do you mean that clip- and network-notification can be disabled by the user? This feature should be working already, just uncheck the specific notification in the app's settings (you can find the settings when you swipe from the left to open the navigation drawer).
Or do you mean that the dialog (popup) will stay open / resume at a given point (aka "the last shown entry")?
Greetings
Martin

Thank you for the quick response, the network notification settings.
I'll try it, And get back to you.
Keep up the good work

Clipboard notification should show up only when clipboard is not empty. Could you implement this?

Not sure if this is the way you want to go...it may be better to provide an xda version that doesn't have the license check...collecting emails of users, even as a kind gesture (and it is really kind of you to offer this) may not be the best means, as it's akin to site registration (or at least could be construed as similar enough).

Hello micmars,
I can understand your opinion and I totally agree with you. Collecting personal data may bring trouble in a project (let me tell you, that I am from Germany and we have one of the strictest privacy legals worldwide, so I really take care about these aspects when I'm releasing an app).
M104 doesn't take the email to verify the app's state. Please check the permissions, I' not able to receive users' personal data (such as email).
ALL required permission:
Code:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BATTERY_STATS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_SYNC_SETTINGS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
These permissions are needed to ship the functionality the app has today.
Collecting data manually (by hand) is much too unhandy to (re)sell it.
If someone suspects this information isn't true, he can send me the ID without using the personal email-address (I assume everybody has a fake mail).
And there are other ways to send me the ID:
- Leave me a private message here on XDA
- Send me a letter containing the ID shown in the dialog (oldschool solution)
- Call me or contact me in GooglePlus
There are plenty of ways to contact me, without telling me "who you are".
Shipping two different versions sadly has the disadvantage that the statistics (rating in GooglePlay and statistics by Google Analytics*) are collected in two different scopes and will end in a development process which consumes more time and is more difficult to read/understand (and brings no improvements in terms of quality and stability).
*Please note that Analytics can be disabled by the user.
And to say it clear, if developers aim to harm users, they would implement functionality most users don't think of.
I guess it's not wrong to be interested in tech and feel better to know who made your software.
Regards
Martin

All of this is well and good, but it seems that you're doing it for sake of expediency as opposed to doing that which is within the confines of providing your app to xda users.
Ultimately, I would rather see your app on the forums, and see you staying within the confines of that which xda allows.

Unfortunately it can't work like that on this site. Either you need to provide a license-free version (i.e. XDA version that has core functionality in tact) or you cannot promote your app via email/PM with IDs. Given that your intentions are good, the fact that you want to have Users send their product IDs through their email address that you will inherently have "on-file" constitutes data farming. As simple as it may be, you cannot "require" someone to send you an email from the personal or otherwise email address for full functionality of said app.
With that said, you can however do a few things. The first is the XDA version that has core functionality that runs when installed. When I say core, I mean the core components have to work as advertised, however you can have add-ons that expand the operations of the app for in-app purchase/donation. As long as the app can run its basic functions unimpeded, then that is fine. OR...You can also set up a Beta-Testers group on the Play Store where you can invite Users to help test features and future development. Since that is outside of XDA jurisdiction, that will rely on Google Developer Standards and their policy to implement and enforce.
Sorry and I assume from reading the past few pages that your intention is passive and peaceful, but the rules of the site are clear about this.

Well, what exactly is wrong with the app or the way I am providing this to the users?
If I am not allowed to show my app here, feel free to mark / close / delete this thread. Since the last 7 days 7 user thanked here (some of them twice), I don't see a reason why this should be that bad.
If someone requests a feature I will implement it asap, if someone finds a bug I will fix it asap and if someone need help, I will do my best to help him out finding a proper solution.
Maybe you think I'm planning to reach 10 Mio. users, but that isn't. As I said, I made this app mostly for my own and after some friends tried it, I decided to improve the features. Still studying comp. science, not working as an professional app developer and earning >100k$ p.m..

Given that my intentions are bad and I try to farm data, wouldn't it be much easier and effective to send every snipped the clipboard receives to a server and ship this app (unofficially in a forum) without telling the user where I live / how to contact me?
Keep in mind: Only permission "Internet" is needed and nearly EVERY app is able do this (and there are many of other flaws in the security model).
Sorry, I still don't see a benefit of a xda-version and I still don't see how I can farm data by receiving an ID.

Lol, so you want this on principle?
It's quite simple...there are hundreds of apps on these forums that follow the trajectory of exactly that which has been provided to you...xda version, Play Store version, and none has an issue with it.
I'm not a moderator, but the individual whom responded to you is.
As I noted from my first post on this topic, I think that it would be good for your app to remain on the forums, and also good if you had a paid version on the Play Store. That stated, the xda version cannot have any machinations whatsoever to collect user email addresses or any other identifying information.
If available on xda, you must offer a version of your software that is fully functional, offered at no cost, and requires no identifying information from the user.
That's the standard. Either follow it or don't.

Regardless of whether or not you see a benefit of it, it is what it is. You either need to provide a version that has core functionality without a license or pull your links.
A Guide to Paid Work on XDA-Developers
And it isn't the ID that is used in relation to farming, it is the email from which they come. Case in point, your email is in Post #2. That can be used very easily to gain all sorts of information on you with relatively minimal effort. Requiring someone to send you an email that is outside of the checks of the Play Store venue to gain access to app function is against the XDA rules.
FSM @Perseus will handle this from here, as it is his team's section to moderate.

We know that you have nothing but good intentions at heart. This you have made clear in more than one post so far. Which is exactly why the thread is still operational. You have been very forthright in listing the Permissions needed by the app.
Having said that, as I see it, your problem with creating a XDA Edition of the app is that your analytics is fragmented. (rating in GooglePlay and statistics by Google Analytics). I can understand that. But the XDA Rules have been in place to avoid use of XDA as commercial Advertisement for a paid app in Play Store. I know that you have made it pretty clear, that you have no such intentions. But the rules have to be uniformly applied. I hope you understand that. Having said that, there are quiet a few Paid apps listed in Our Community Apps. (Link bellow). They follow a fairly similar model. Specifically the author of BetterBatteryStats app had in past made clear he has the same intentions as you.
Speaking of analytics, you might want to review the subforums of Marketing, Distribution, and Analytics forum. You might want to review following questions in the Analytics subforum
[Q] How do you app developers prefer to track of your apps?
Good alternatives to Google Analytics for Android?
You are welcome to post your question there as well, should you feel like it.
Oh and by the way since this app is not more global for all devices, have you considered listing in XDA Community Apps. Also you might want to consider having your app listed in XDA Labs for additional visibility.

Thanks Yes, available in a 2-3 hours (0.1.5).

OP HAS NOT MADE A COMPLETELY FREE VERSION PER XDA RULES. Thread closed and links removed.
OP Check your PM.

Question PSA: How to fix the notification delay or non-receipt issue. Truly pathetic of Google and Samsung.

SOLUTION TO DELAYED-NOTIFICATIONS:
Enable USB debugging on the phone.
You just unzip the file provided here in your PC: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
Navigate to it via terminal.
Then, after you connect the phone to your PC, run:
./adb devices
./adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable
That'll fix it for sure.
I simply cannot recommend Android to my normie friends and family.
Let me restate this: It is not our job to fix Google's bugs.
This is a US-centric view.
If you can't tell: I am a bit aggravated right now.
I could not get my GMail, GCal, and other notifications to come through properly on Pixel 5's Android 11 OR S21 Ultra's Android 11.
This has apparently been an issue that many an Android user suffers through silently -- and, some don't even know that this is happening to them. I guess they're embarrassed to publicly state that their mobile OS is subpar.
When you get an e-mail or if a calendar event reminder is coming up, and even if your phone's screen is OFF/locked: you should get an *instant* notification. No delay whatsoever.
Well, if my screen was off/locked, I wouldn't get these notifications or it would take 10+ minutes to show. But, once I unlocked my phone: boom, notifications. And, sometimes even if my screen wasn't locked, there would be a serious delay or no notification.
After spending loads of time trying to fix this problem, me and my friend finally stumbled upon a solution: ./adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable
A reboot eliminates this setting modification, by the way.
Do not tell me that instant e-mail notifications are not necessary. Many of us work jobs that require them to be instant.
No end user should ever have to go through this. iPhone users certainly don't go through this.
If Google doesn't care about Android users, then, why should I, as an Android user, care about Android too? Just switch to iPhone, I guess.
Google pays Apple $10bn+ every year and makes better software for iOS than it does for Android.
Just look at the damn widgets that iOS users get.
So, $10bn/year plus the cost of the software developed to cater to iOS users.
This makes Google a simp cuck to Apple, nothing else.
Would Apple ever return this favor? No.
Therefore, Google management is a simp cucked by Apple, nothing more.
We are fools to be using this OS.
If Google is willing to subsidize my iOS software updates and experience to the tune of billions of dollars every single year -- then, why not just switch?
Clearly, my experience has shown me that Android can be cheaper -- if I don't value my time.
Statistic after statistic bears it out: iPhone users are wealthier.
I am tired of being an Android luser -- why should I take on such abuse and neglect by the main author of my mobile OS?
Before you start patronizing me: YES, I tried every other bloody trick in the book to fix this issue.
No end user should ever have to go through this! No end user should have to run adb commands to enable basic functionality.
There are some basic things that modern smartphones should just be able to do: instant notifications, 3rd party camera support, functioning RCS or some other form of E2EE messaging built-in, reliable local backups, a nationwide network of repair facilities, etc.
Android fails on all of these.
iPhone ordered. Glad to leave this Android ghetto behind.
Hey Google, if you have some self-respect: then, instead of paying Apple $10bn an year and doing iOS development, how about you actually work on some basic Android functionality instead?

Way too long dude.
But I can say I never had a delay on my notifications, especially on Gmail where my phone rings before my laptop for example.
All my apps get notified in time, I can compare with Signal and it's Desktop app.
I really don't know what's the cause but if I can help.

And for you information, all your monologue about iPhone is really too much, especially when some people have the exact same issue.
Just Google iPhone notifications delay and you'll find out.
If you wanna change, just change, We are not kids, nobody is gonna tell you to stay in the Android world if you're not satisfied.
To finish, you maybe make stupid assumptions. I paid an S21U 1500 € because I can, I also have an iPhone 12 Pro from work, and I just never use it because in my tastes, this is a really bad phone to use.
Good thing We use VoIP so I just forward my professional calls now.

Try this with your phone screen off: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.firstrowria.pushnotificationtester
Set the notification to come in at like 240 seconds and lock your phone screen.
If it doesn't come in instantly as scheduled, you have a problem.

There is a reason why iOS has at least 60% market share in the US.
It has the basics right.
It has the low-hanging fruit mastered.
My friend has a Pixel 5 and I have an S21 Ultra 256GB.
And, somehow, I'm frustrated/biased over nothing?
Clearly, I'm in the game but Android is failing us.

I configured the app for 5 min notifications and programmed a countdown of my Google Home to see what was going on.
You won't get anything from my screenshots because I have nothing special.

Yep the reason is this is an American Company that they are proud of and you can see Apple products everywhere, ads, shows, movies, etc...
That just became a standard.
A few years ago Apple had the same share but with ****ty phones, so...
Today they make good products, but that's still not enough for me.
I can't use a system where censure is normal, they chose to close the doors to every developers they want, they don't follow their own rules, they don't wanna use standards to slow down every tiers development and keep everyone in jail...
This is a biiiiiig discussion, but just like Facebook, I just can't stand their politics.
Most Americans are just blind when it comes to Apple, this is the pride of the nation.
And We don't talk bad about the pride of the Nation.

Adaptive battery and put unused apps to sleep are known troublemakers.
Android will manage very well without them.
Any power hogs deal with on an individual case by case basis. Optimize it; flipping a toggle switch isn't optimizing
At the most, simply close that app when done with it. The Brave browser is real bad like that if you don't close it out.
Your results may vary... play with it; WYSIWYG.
As for Apple, it's a closed platform one trick pony and it sucks.
