    Thread YouTube app keeps getting enabled automatically

    I have a fully updated stock 4/64 A2 with YouTube disabled (because I prefer NewPipe). Until a week or so ago, I did not have any problems keeping it disabled. Now, it gets automatically enabled after an indeterminate amount (minutes? hours?) of time. I clear Storage for the app, disable it...

    Thread OEM replacement battery for x526?

    Thread No official LineageOS builds for Redmi 3s ('land')?

    I see a couple of unofficial LineageOS builds for this phone, which are well received by testers/users. However, there is no official LOS build. Why is that? Isn't this phone hugely popular in India and China?

    Thread [SOLVED] Change display font on x526 w/LOS14.1?

    I am running official LOS14.1 with Magisk and Xposed, all fully updated. IIUC, the theme engine has been removed since LOS 14. I don't want to theme the entire OS, I just want to replace the display font with something more aesthetic, say Product Sans or even Roboto Condensed. How do I do that?

    Thread [TMOUS HD2] Some questions from a second-time tinkerer

    I've never anything other than WM (stock) and WP7 on this phone so far. I may decide to go to Android (or back to WM) considering WP7's ****ty battery life.
