Whenever I search for questions I have about Android system apps, ADB, flashing, etc. I noticed all the search results are really scammy-looking websites with instructions that sound like they were translated from Chinese by an AI.
It doesn’t make a difference if I use Google, Duckduckgo or Bing.
Also, there seems to be hardly any official documentation for Android available. Even finding out what the preinstalled system apps even do, what exactly is needed for push messages to work, or what the different permissions do is impossible for me.
I know of xdaforums.com but when I look there I usually end up in a thread with 30+ pages full of users asking questions that get no helpful answer.
How come there is so little good information on Android? Or am I looking in the wrong places?
Actually there is a bot that lets you browse through Telegram too haha, and its global search ofc.
I agree chat based ain’t better than forums, but it is pretty dead in XDA, at least for lmi, and you can always find the info faster and better in TG (again, for lmi).
It’s dead because people have moved to Telegram (or sometimes Discord). Sucks but I guess it’s faster. At least would be if you were actually allowed to ask questions lol. A lot will have really strict rules about asking questions.
