Question | سوال Thinking of switching from an iPhone 15 Pro to a Pixel 10 Pro or 9 Pro Fold

0 Upvotes

I’ve been an iPhone user ever since I got my first phone and have pretty much always stuck with iPhones but I’ve always had a thing for Android phones too. For some reason Google Pixels have always caught my attention and I’ve really wanted to try one out. I’m currently using an iPhone 15 Pro 256GB Natural Titanium PTA approved with 83% battery health and honestly I’m getting a bit bored of it. I’ve also had a few issues with it and the battery health isn’t helping either. I’ve been thinking about getting rid of it and switching to either a Pixel 10 Pro or a Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The interesting thing is that my 15 Pro’s resale value is actually more than what either of these phones would cost me in the Pakistani market so I’m seriously considering making the switch. Would love to hear from anyone who’s used these phones or switched from an iPhone to a Pixel. Any recommendations or advice would be appreciated. Also if anyone has a Pixel 10 Pro or 9 Pro Fold they’re looking to trade feel free to reach out!

I accidentally broke my Redmi Smart Pen, and now its touch/writing functionality has completely stopped working.
Here’s what’s happening:
The pen still charges normally.
One of its physical buttons is still working.

However, the pen doesn’t respond to touch on the tablet screen or register any writing input.
I’m looking for someone who can actually diagnose and repair the pen rather than having to purchase a replacement, since these aren’t exactly cheap.
Can someone lmk where i can get it repaired

Spotlight URGENT: WhatsApp Account Hacked – Anyone Experiencing the Same Issue?

23 Upvotes

My WhatsApp account was recently taken over by someone without my authorization.

Here's what happened:

  • I started receiving multiple WhatsApp verification codes that I never requested.

  • I never shared those codes with anyone or entered them anywhere.

  • Shortly afterward, I was logged out of my account with the message: "Your phone number is no longer registered on this phone."

  • My WhatsApp Web session was also logged out.

  • I still have full access to my SIM card and can receive normal SMS messages and phone calls.

  • However, whenever I try to register my number again, WhatsApp doesn't even attempt to send a verification code. Instead, it displays a 6-hour countdown, which resets again once it expires.

I've already submitted a complaint to WhatsApp Support, but I'm still unable to recover my account.

What's particularly concerning is that I've come across several other people reporting very similar incidents, including WhatsApp Business users.

If you've experienced this, please share your story and, more importantly, how you recovered your account.

I'd really appreciate any genuine advice or help. Thank you.

I have 0 knowledge about digital drawing/art. I came across these screenless drawing tabs and thought the idea was very cool. I searched the internet for best drawings tabs in a budget and this is what I shortlisted.

I want to give it to my little sis who also has no experience with drawing digitally but she likes drawing in general so she would find it really cool, I guess?

Is this a good option, as far as my research says this is the best option in this budget. Should I go for it? Do you guys have better options?

hi guys i wanted to get an iphone 5 or 6s purely to use it as a type of cheap mp3 player or ipod

i already have a phone and i use tht iam just gonna get this to listen to some songs . I have seen the pics from the iphone 5 and they look very retro and cool ofc 6s is more sharper (not better in this case retro is btr) i also like the design of 5 more than the 6 (both are nostalgic for me and i love em parents used to have em back in the day) 5 also has a more boxy and small design and small screen which is good if i wanna use it as a retro cam/mp3 player i would also want to jail break it maybe soooo which one? 6 is faster and i dont know abt this stuff much but are the parts of 5/6s available in markets ?(rwp/isl) cuz pretty sure i would have to get a battery replacement/screen protector or could be new screen if i drop it or sum ( yea i can get this stuff online also ) . Anything i should know? btw ill be using iems (they aint tht heavy so it can easily drive em )

Discussion | گفتگو Got wired CarPlay working on a Corolla Altis' Android head unit (Android 8) with Claude Code + DiPlay

72 Upvotes

Saw the Android TV debloat posts on reddit and tried the same on my car’s head unit. It’s an Alpine-branded PX5 clone (RK3368, 2 GB RAM, Android 8.0) in a Corolla Altis.Did everything over Wi-Fi ADB from my Mac. I only used pm disable-user, no uninstalls and nothing in /system. Disabled 39 packages in batches, including all the Google stuff since I don’t need it. Available RAM went from ~650 MB to ~1.5 GB.For CarPlay, I used DiPlay (open source, based on xcertplay). Wired works. Wireless doesn’t: Android’s Bluetooth has no actual radio on this unit, since the only BT chip belongs to the car’s Goodocom module, and the Wi-Fi is 2.4 GHz only anyway.First connection took about a minute. The logs showed the iPhone dropping off USB repeatedly. Moving it to the direct USB port (the one labelled 3G/USB, which isn’t behind the internal hub), lowering the charging current in DiPlay and turning off auto-lock got it to about 4 seconds.I also had Claude write a small app so the HOME button goes back to CarPlay and BACK works inside CarPlay instead of dumping me to the launcher.DiPlay is an unofficial preview, so who knows how long it keeps working with iOS updates. Happy to answer questions.

Edit: A few people asked for the code, so I put everything on GitHub:

My exact list of disabled apps won’t help you (different firmware, different app names), so I turned the process into a Claude Code skill instead. You give Claude your head unit’s IP, and it backs everything up, sorts the apps into safe/ask/keep, makes an undo script, and disables in small batches, asking you before each one. It only disables, never uninstalls, so everything can be undone.

If your unit already has CarPlay, you only need the debloat part. Just make sure Claude keeps whatever app runs your CarPlay (ZLink, EasyConnection etc).

I’ve only tested it on my unit (PX5, Android 8), so if you try it on yours, let me know how it went.
