This used to be the case, I'm not sure since when nor if that's how it works on every android phone as every manufacturer customize its own OS. I'm pretty sure this has happened to me on my OnePlus 3T and it definitly happened on my OnePlus 6. This is a bit problematic as my Google account has a generated password in my password manager, if I forget to remove it before doing a factory reset, I usually change my password for a simpler one until I have bitwarden installed back on the phone after the reset
Depending on the walls, generally at least in my country walls are made of clay bricks, so any hammer drill will work, but if you want to drill too close to the ceiling, or the ceiling you will need something better.
I ended up buying a rotary hammer because of this, holes on the floor (doorstoppers), ceiling, or walls right close to the ceiling was impossible with the cheap hammer drill, along with a good SDS+ drill bit feels like butter now.
Yes, I had good experiences working with brick walls so far - but a lot of very modern construction (here in Switzerland) uses a lot of concrete, sometimes even exposed concrete in living spaces [0].
I really don't know if any of the designers/architects involved have ever tried living in those apartments. I think a lot of them would choose different materials if they had to do their own DYI.
Concrete has great thermodynamic properties for living comfort. It cools at day, warms at night, transfers from cold parts of the house to hot ones, etc.
It is there on purpose (and not too difficult to drill into with a "Bohrhammer", rotary drill(?), i.e. the ones with SDS(+)).
Actually, the brick-walls we have (hollow bricks with flimsy thin walls) were harder for me to figure out. They need really careful drilling with the right tools, otherwise the brick shatters and nothing will take grip.
I had a F-91W for years, I still have it and it still works, but like you I moved to an automatic Seiko 5 (the smallest I could find as my wrist is quite thin), for two reasons I wanted something more good looking, and I didn't want to worry about batteries (although they last years)
I did the opposite. Wore a Seiko 5 for a while until I got tired of not trusting it, then switched to an F91w. The Seiko is very good for an affordable automatic, but it’s hard to beat a quartz for “it just works”.
It wasn't out of spec, I'm just referring to the general weaknesses of automatics. If I spend the weekend doing physical activity where I don't want to wear a watch, Monday morning I'll be resetting my Seiko 5. With my F91w, I can take a long vacation, and spot check a system clock to the second when I get home.
Ah, I see, that's what you mean with reliability. Ok. I wear mine pretty much all the time so that's the reason I'd never have that problem. I thought you meant accuracy. Thanks for the clarification.
I did install it too on my 6.1 and found the System app trying to connect to several cloudfront IPs, cant find any kind of extra info, did you find the same?
