For me its the ‘Knock Code’ that LG had on their phones (I really wish LG still made at least the V series phones)
Basically there was a four-square area and you set up a sequence of where you would tap to unlock the phone. That set of squares was only shown when you set up the code
Then, to unlock your phone, you would tap those areas in the sequence you set up (even with the screen off).
Fingerprint readers are nice, but I really do miss the knock code
Edit: did find this article with a way to do the knock code, but if done wrong, could brick your phone I guess.
Plus, article is from 2014. When I looked at XDA’s info on it (they also being the developers) it looks like development on it is over, but individual modules may or may not still be supported by their devs
what new phones have a headphone jack? I’m hanging onto my Pixel 4a for as long as possible so I can keep using my wired headphones
Why do you liked wired headphones? Once i got a good set of Bluetooth eaebuds I never looked back. I use mine all day every day at work. They’ve increased my quality of life dramatically. Wired headphones made it so inconvenient.
a few reasons: Mostly I switch between devices a lot (phone, personal computer, work computer, steam deck), and when I’m using Bluetooth headphones it’s always a pain to switch, and I get connection issues when I’m connected to more than one device at a time. I also have high-quality wired headphones already that would cost hundreds of dollars to replace with a Bluetooth version of similar quality.
159 android phones so far in 2023 according to GSMArena but here is the problem not every phone has a headphone jack it is no longer a given to have a headphone jack
I bellive Pixels and some Sonys.
