    You can get past this by booting in safe mode (turn device off then hold volume up? (might be down, idr)while turning back on)

    But once you’re back in, prepare yourself because other shit will be broken.

    All my homescreen widgets are gone and I can no longer reach my local servers.

    It’s definitely this update that has changed something, because this is the only device that cannot reach them. I can use mobile data and connect via twingate, but if I’m on the same network, nothing.

    I will never buy another Samsung phone, I vow it.

    Depends on your comfort with CLI tools. Here’s the process (assumes Windows):

    1. Download and extract platform tools
    2. Add that location to your PATH
    • Win + R, type “cmd”, enter
    • set PATH=%PATH%;C:\your\path\here\ <- Temporary, just for the current session
    • setx /M path "%path%;C:\your\path\here\" <- Permanent

    1. On your device, go to Settings -> About and look for Build Number it can sometimes be buried in Software Information

    2. Tap Build Number repeatedly until a message appears You are now a developer

    3. You should now have a new Developer options menu item somewhere in your settings. Sometimes it’s top level, sometimes it’s buried under Additional Settings or Advanced Settings or the like

    4. Make sure USB Debugging is turned on

    5. Connect the device over USB

    6. Back on WIndows type:

    • adb devices
    • You might get a popup on the device asking if you want to allow USB debugging. Select Yes, and run adb devices again. You should see your device listed
    1. Download the APK of the app you want to install (AAB files are a PITA, but can be installed too. Try to get APK files though)
    2. Install with:
    • adb install C:/path/to/app.apk <- if adb devices only returns one device
    • adb -s <device_id> install C:/path/to/app.apk <- specific device

    You can install updates the same way, just download the updated APK and add the -r flag adb install -r C:/path/to/app.apk

    More useful adb commands

    EVERY video is slow. Dunno what to tell you. Maybe it’s because I’m on the arse end of the world, but it’s always a crapshoot whether or not a peertube video will actually load for me or not. Even this one buffered for ~30 seconds before it started playing, which is just too long for it to be a viable yt replacement just yet. I’m getting > 100 mbps down on this machine, so it’s not my connection

    ETA: I will say, after writing this, I tried a few others, and it does seem to be better than the last time I tried it, so maybe this was hasty. They do still buffer much more than yt, but they seem to play consistently now at least
