Help Half of screen sliding upwards

Just got a used LG G4. Don't have a case for it yet. All was working well with it until I dropped it earlier. Now the left half of the screen kinda shimmies and shakes it's way upwards, one or two rows of pixels at a time. It seems to reset itself for a very short while when I hit the home screen button, but then starts upwards again.

Is this something that will end up being costly or is there something I can do about it myself?

Gear S2 Stuck Setting Up

Hello,

I have a Gear S2 watch that I want to give to my son. He has an iPhone. I had reset the watch and tried setting up on his phone but kept getting the message “Setting up...”. I have downloaded the Galaxy app. Anything else I need? He has an iPhone 7 plus with the latest iOS.

When I set it up on my Google Pixel 3, it downloaded a few other apps and then sync to the watch with no issues.

Best Podcasts!

So, I recently gave up on talk radio for my morning and evening commute. I decided I needed something engaging to take my mind off the other drivers.

Curious what podcasts people listen to, and what genres.

My favorites:
Weekly Planet (Mr Sunday Movies) - Comics, Movies, TV Shows. THE best geek content out there. His Youtube channel has over a million subscribers as well)
- Honorable mention Suggestible Podcast, which is Mr Sunday Movies and his wife suggesting things.

Batman Beyond - Kevin Smith and Marc Bernardin

So these are my go to for Pop Culture news and Talk.

There is also a great marvel podcast series, Wolverine, which is fully voice acted series with big name actors. Marvel and Stitcher partner on this.

For tech there is a bunch, but Linus Tech Tips (WAN Show) and MKBHD (Waveform) are good ones.

There is also the guy from Impractical Jokers and 2 guys from Comic Book Men who do 'Tell Em Steve Dave' which is pretty good mostly, but I only listen when there is nothing else.

An Evening with David Tenent has been quality stuff as well.


What does everyone else listen to?

Language

I have this problem with the Google Pixel 3xl. I prefer only US English but no matter how I try I keep getting my local pigen English in some of the applications. I followed the procedure and changed the prefared English to US but I still get this local language on some apps. How do I get only US English on this phone?

C5 Bluetooth Earbuds Review

What an interesting piece of tech!

As time goes on and tech becomes more readily available It often becomes less expensive to purchase things that years ago were hundreds of dollars.

This seems to be the case with the C5 Bluetooth wireless earbuds. The sound quality is amazing. I was frankly shocked to hear such deep, full and clear a sound quality out of a device say this price point.

Sound is my thing as I am a musician. Something has to sound good in order for me to use it and like it. The C5 fits the bill. Music sound quality is very good, if not excellent. YouTube sound quality over Bluetooth is amazing.

Moreover, and importantly for me was the telephone call quality. Callers could hear me fairly well and I could hear them as well or better than over an AirPod device. A minor issue was that my wife said I sounded a tad distant. Considering that I am not emotionally distant, I figured she meant call quality! :vroam: Other than that I heard her fine and it was amazing! I know that’s hard to believe because the price points of the two devices mentioned are so different, but it’s true.

The ear fit Is very good. I like the fit better because it doesn’t feel like it’s going to come out of the ear like an AirPod does, plus this is excellent for working out because of the fit AND the fact that it’s waterproof, which is icing on the cake. I would be hard-pressed to find any downside with this C5. I therefore recommend them. I gave this pair to my wife's friend, who is without $$ means. That made me happy because it was a really good pair. I'd buy them for myself without reservation. As Chinese generic bluetooth buds go, these are top of the line. Believe me.. I've reviewed others that were terrible.

What do you think of this? Thanks for reading! PS: I don't know why Android Forums puts my pics on their side. Oh well.

Chromium 80 samesite cookie default change in webviews

A significant change is coming in chrome browser(version 80.x) , and I wonder how you can test it on Android webview.
On the web you just need to set a couple defaults for flags via chrome:flags:
* SameSite by default cookies - need to change to enabled
* Cookies without SameSite must be secure - also need to set to enabled

This way you simulate the behaviour of the browser when this new release kicks in.

My question is how do you test it in advance on Android webviews?
How can you change flags in the internal browser used by the webview (Android System Webview?)
