But when the OS rolled out in Developer, Beta, and finally to the stable build a few weeks back, this feature was nowhere to be found. Fortunately, the wait time is now over and you could now finally get hold of your preferred apps directly on your desktop. So without further ado, let’s check out the steps to install and run Android apps on your Windows 11 PC. How to Install and Run Android Apps on Windows 11 Before starting with the instructions, there are a few requirements that you need to checkmark off the list....

Anyways, this is how things are going to be now and in the near future as well, so you shouldn’t look for any light at the end of the tunnel. With that said, the OEM has just rolled out the Android 13 update for its OnePlus 8/8 Pro/8T. And with that, there is a slew of UI changes that you are about to welcome, all thanks to the Aquamorphic Design in combination with the Material You theme....

One such example could be the non-working of one of your keyboard keys. In this regard, my keyboard’s Shift key recently bid adieu. As a result of which, I wasn’t able to open Task Manager, permanently delete a file, or capitalize the letter without opting for workarounds. If you are also stuck in a similar situation, then this guide will make you aware of the steps to remap a key on your keyboard in Windows 11....

On the other hand, this functionality works well and good with all the punctuation keys (period, comma, exclamation mark, etc), Space, and Delete. Say if you want to delete five letters, then just long-press the Delete key and it will do the job. But why is there a conflicting behavior between the alphabet and the function keys? Well, this is because some of the alphabet keys behold a shortcut for special characters that could be invoked on long press....

This file will be then patched via Magisk, giving us the magisk_patched.tar file. We will then boot your Samsung device to Download Mode and flash this patched AP file (magisk_patched.tar) via Odin. Finally, we will list out the steps to boot your device to the rooted OS and carry out a few optional tweaks. We have also prepared separate guides for each of these steps. So if you are a newcomer then it is highly recommended that you check out each of those guides as well (we will be linking them to this guide at the required places)....

The latter two are possible by rooting your device via Magisk. This in turn could be carried out via two different methods. The first one involves the direct flashing of the Magisk App (yes, that’s what it is called now, beginning with version 22) via TWRP Recovery. However, not everyone prefers this approach, some out of choice, others out of compulsion. The latter set of users are those whose device doesn’t have an active custom recovery (which by the way is no longer the case with this device)....

This device is among the many budget devices that Realme has to offer to the masses. The 6.4 inches Super AMOLED screen has a 1080 x 2340 pixel resolution and a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. Under the hood, you get an octa-core Qualcomm SDM712 Snapdragon 712 (10 nm) chipset. On the gaming front, you get an Adreno 616 GPU.

The mid-rangers from Samsung have appealed to the masses and in some style. In this regard, the M21 is no different either. In countries like India, it has always occupied among the top spot in the buyer’s preference list. When you are getting a device that tick marks all the required necessities and OneUI as the underlying OS skin without burning a hole in your pockets, then the device’s rise to fame is no hidden secret....

While these are no doubt quite appreciatable, but for the tech enthusiasts, it might still not be enough to checkmark all the prerequisites. And we can’t blame them either! Once you unlock the device’s bootloader and step into custom development, there is literally a plentitude of tweaks to try out. From flashing custom ROMs to installing a custom recovery, the possibilities stand endless. Likewise, you could also gain administrative privileges by rooting your device....

Having administrative access gives you the gateway to access most of the files and folders on your PC, but not all. And the temp folder lies in the second category. So you will have to take ownership of the Temp folder on your Windows 11 PC. Once you do so, you will be in a position to access the contents of that folder, delete or modify the files that it beholds, or even change its permissions....

What is Bootloader? According to Google “A bootloader is a vendor-proprietary image responsible for bringing up the kernel on a device. It guards the device state and is responsible for initializing the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) and binding its root of trust”. Confused? So am I! let us leave all this aside. In simpler terms, a Bootloader is a software that runs every time your phone boots (start). It contains a set of instructions that tells the device which program to load at what instance....

But if we really ask the users, some are of the opinion that they would instead prefer to use a compact device that fits in their palm. If you are also on the lookout for one such smartphone, then Jelly 2 might checkmark most of your requirements. It boasts of an exciting USP, being the “world’s smallest Android 10 4G smartphone”. With a 3-inch screen, global LTE support, 2000mAh battery, and the size of a credit card, there’s a lot to look forward to....

However, one issue still remains- the underlying OS skin will still be the same bloated MIUI with tons of baked-in ads. This is a big no for various users, and rightly so. Well, there’s now an opportunity for you to bid adieu to the MIUI skin and welcome a new customized firmware that is much better in performance, optimization, UI, and is also based on the latest Android version. So without any further ado, let’s check out the steps to install the Android 12 ROM onto Xiaomi Mi 10T/10T Pro....

You could now download and install the latest LineageOS 19 custom ROM based on Android 12....

Motorola One Action is a recent addition to the Motorola One series. The device manages to pack in a decent specs sheet. It has around 4GB RAM, 128GB storage which could further be expanded via SD Card. The camera department is something that needs to be improved, to be honest. And the absence of a proper GCam only makes the matter worse. However, one thing that’s quite easy in this device is the flashing of the stock firmware....

At the time of writing, the update is in the developer preview phase, so you are likely to face a few bugs and issues. Well, that’s not an issue as Oppo has already made its userbase aware of all the bugs beforehand. However, as of now, the users are having to deal with an altogether different type of problem.

Likewise, some have said that they are unable to change the value data of a specific registry....

However, in spite of all the goodies that it has to offer, it isn’t free from its fair share of issues either. As of now, a few users have voiced their concern that they are getting a white bar from your Galaxy S22 Ultra screen. Upon long pressing it, it tends to change color to blue, and then you will be able to slide it to a different position on your screen, but there doesn’t seem to be any way of removing it....
