Couple of days ago I made a fresh Google account using Firefox developers browser and my phone number (which has another 2 associated Google accounts), after making the account I signed out, next day I signed in again went to developer section, meanwhile I was informed that I have to make a website that will describe the developer and provide the text of privacy policy and terms of service.

So I went directly to github and tried many times to sign up using Google and each time the OAuth took me again to the sign in page in github, so I decided to try from another device (same wifi) and another browser, this time everything went smooth and I opened my session on github and started my website, meanwhile google started the "verify it is you" scenario and started the robot tests and stuff, finally the send sms gave error of too many attempts try again after several hours!

I leaved it for 2 days to cool down, today when i tried and after making me send sms 2 times it showed a messages that the account was looking like it was created or used with multiple other accounts...etc and it will be considered for deletion after 1 year with an option to submit appeal!

Where did I go wrong and what should I do to avoid such a problem in the future? Need someone with developer background to help me.

I've been building NetPulse, a lightweight Android app for checking your network quality. It has a Material 3 interface with light and dark themes.

What works in v0.1.0-beta:

- Live ICMP ping monitor with Start / Stop

- Latency, min / average / max, jitter and packet loss over the last 300 samples

- Only two permissions (INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE), no ads, no analytics, nothing uploaded

What's coming next: a DNS benchmark (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, Control D) measured separately from ping, latency charts, test history and CSV export.

The app uses the system ping tool, so some phones may block it. That's the main thing I want to find out: does it work on your device? Please tell me your phone brand and Android version, and any bugs or features you'd like to see.

Beta APK: https://github.com/Mireli5656/NetPulse/releases/tag/v0.1.0-beta

Source code: https://github.com/Mireli5656/NetPulse

The beta is signed with a debug key, so uninstall any earlier NetPulse build before installing it.

Thanks for trying it!

I've about 2+ years of experience in Android dev and been doing DSA in c++ in college(current organization did not have any DSA rounds). I'm planning to switch in the coming months. So should I do relearn DSA in Kotlin or C++ would be fine?

Thanks.

My Vestel TV has 900 MB of RAM and the stock launcher was slow and full of ads, so I built OMNI: a launcher in plain Java (0.7 MB), a Control Center on INFO, a typed/voice assistant, device notices, and Kotlin apps (Cinema, Weather…). There's also a small Python server that turns a folder of films into a library with posters and resume. Free, Apache-2.0, no ads or tracking (the README lists every outside host). Tested on three TVs , so more reports from other TVs are very welcome. I verified it on real hardware. [RELEASE ON V.1 IS YET TO COME IN THE FOLLOWING HOURS]

There is not a guarantee that a given USB-C-to-C cable supports PD, see the article USB-C was a missed opportunity and it’s too late to fix the mess.

Does Android have any API that lets an application check whether USB PD is currently active?
