Wait. Get root access and Superuser privileges on your current phone. Divorce yourself from your carrier's intrusive nanny bull****, and Google's bloatware; overclock your CPU just a little bit, and gain the admistrative privileges free Americans DESERVE.

The only thing you want to share with Google is a backup of your phone contacts.

No media, photos, Google Drive, Maps (worried about getting lost? Get a Garmin), and every program they create to 'enrich' your phone experience. Use a tracker-eliminating browser, and have a script-sniffer in your Firefox for Android if you visit social networking sites.

Chrome can be uninstalled, with the SU binary (superuser) installed at the root directory with Busybox, and a new system recovery like Clockwork Mod (CWM), or TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project).

Installing the PAID version of SuperSU will enable you to bring the phone back to its original stock specs (install your Nandroid backup for your original ROM out of your new recovery, and bootload your original kernel PRIOR to eliminating root access with SuperSU, or you'll brick your phone) for warranty-covered repair, remove your root access, and then just uninstall your CWM/TWRP, Busybox, and Super SU.

There's your crash course in maintaining your freedom, when it comes to Android smartphones. Google is literally in control of the Web.

Big Brother, indeed, is watching you...

'Mawnin, @pete67. I fell asleep mid-post last night, so folks here at Corner #2 might've thought I was lurking. Tomorrow, surgery. Say hi to Sue for Liz and I.



'Mawnin', @Whiskey. Last night was the best sleep I've had in a LONG time! Like I wrote to Pete, I fell asleep mid-post...

People were probably saying, "Hmm. What's up with LW & Liz? Are they the new "Lurkers of The Corner Realm?"

Film endorsement: Love And Mercy, starring John Cusack - essentially, the story of Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys. As a fan of Brian, it made me cry...

Tomorrow - surgery. Dammit. Love ya both, Whis and Pete.

LW & Liz :):):):)

Good morning LW&Liz. Sue and I wish for the surgery to go smooth and work the best it can and make you better. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. Take care and be safe my friends.

There is nothing on earth that makes things better than a good night's sleep in my book:)

It is what it is... I don't need to root.. Being a commercial truck driver I have 3 Garmins and a world navigator GPS. There are some photos stored on this phone which I don't really care about and bloatware doesn't bother me because I don't use it.. all the other negatives you mentioned are not important to me. And I've had zero problems for the last 15 years.. like I said it's just a phone, it is what it is and I like it like that..

Go to sleep early last night, wake up early, skip going to the gym or walking in because I'm asked to come in early today. Get into work at 7am and start setting up some stuff. Make myself a cup of tea, realize it's now 8am and no one is here, call up the boss and ask what's up. Apparently everyone else was told to get in at 9am... so I get to sit and drink some tea and vape for an hour while getting paid, not too bad.

Good morning all. Feeling a lot better than I was day one with this sickness, but not great. Class today and I'll probably be miserable all day but I'll tough it out.

How's everyone's morning?

Also.. Got a Petri V2 on the way!!

Matt
Just drink a bottle of DayQuil you won't feel anything! :p (seriously don't do this!) GL with class.

I'd be seeing noises. But it'd be better than this... Maybe..

I will no doubt be dead tired after I get home tonight. Ugh. Then I'll drink half a bottle of NyQuil and its lights out!

Matt
:p, yup.

I get sick like clockwork at the same time every year, it's within a 10 day period. Working events out in the rain for 17hours at a time while handling a bunch of dirty cash (redundant, all cash is filthy). So I end up killing a bottle or two of dayquil over the weekends during those events when I'm sick, by the afternoon I'm a robot, but the alternative is dripping snot and hacking up a lung while dealing with customers. Pretty sure it's better to be a little spacey.

The last couple years I've been going to the doctor the second I feel it coming, get the GOOD cough syrup and antibiotics. This year the pharmacist told me I'd have to wait a month to get the perscription filled because I had just picked up the same thing 3 days before and it's a controlled substance (looking at me weird the whole time), then he caught his mistake that it was 3 days before a year ago and filled it.

Mask and latex gloves to prevent infecting everyone in your near vicinity?
