It’s probably not what you think, but it’s not great news for people who prefer to root their phones.
As anyone who roots their Android phone will tell you, it’s not always easy to play the games you love these days. Lots of game developers deploy anti-root detection methods to keep you from playing their game if you root your phone. An all too common explanation for why this anti-root philosophy exists is to combat cheating, and one place in particular this explanation irritates users is Pokémon Go.
Niantic won’t even let the app fully start if it looks like you are rooting your phone, and the method being used to look for whether your phone has root access rubs a lot of people the wrong way.
Stay out of my file system
In order to tell whether your phone has root access, Pokémon Go on Android asks for permission to look at your file system. This is a fairly common permission for an app to ask for, since most apps need to write something to your phone, it’s not a …
What do the Xiaomi Mi 8 and Samsung Galaxy S9+ have in common? Very little at first glance, but many of you might be undecided on which top-range smartphone to buy. Is it worth trusting the less expensive Xiaomi or is it better to rely on the more esta…
Android has evolved quite a lot into the operating system we know and love today, but years ago, many enthusiasts (including me) actively plugged its earlier feature gaps via a process called “rooting.” In brief, rooting allows us to make modifications at the system level—though it does so at the cost of potentially reduced security, among other risks.
About every two years we like to check in and see how many Android enthusiasts out there continue to root their devices, and here we are again.

Anker launched its first Android-powered portable projector about a year ago, the Nebula Mars. Since then, it also released the smaller Nebula Capsule, a sequel to the original Mars, and a Mars without Android. The two latter models, as well as the original, are heavily discounted for today only.
Firstly, Anker is selling the original Nebula Mars for $399.99, a $200 savings over the original price. This is still the brightest projector the company sells, with a rating of 500 ANSI Lumens (the Mars II is only 300 ANSI Lumens).
[Deal Alert] Anker’s Mars portable projectors are 26-30% off ($280-$400) for today only on Amazon was written by the awesome team at Android Police.

Movies under the stars.
Amazon is offering up to 30% off Anker Nebula Mars Portable Cinemas today. Prices start at $279.99 and there are a few different models to choose from.
These devices are a projector and speakers all rolled into one, so all you need is a wall and some movies and you can have your very own theater. Don’t forget the popcorn.
The Nebula Mars Lite Portable Cinema, on sale for $279.99, is the most basic model. It has dual 10W speakers for immersive sound, a 300 ANSI lumens brightness for 1280x720p resolution, and a battery life of three hours. It autofocuses in a single second and can connect via USB, HDMI, or Aux to play media. The downside of this model is that there is no built-in operating system.
As a step up, this Nebula Mars II Portable Cinema basically has all of the features of the previous model, plus some additional bells and whistles. It includes everything from above and DLP IntelliBright technology. This model also comes running Android 7.1, which …
