In reply to the discussion: How often do you shop at Amazon.com? [View all]Buckeye_Democrat
(15,004 posts)6. It's probably about 5 or 6 times a year for me.
Coincidentally, I'm eagerly awaiting a smartphone OTG cable and some new flash drives from Amazon today. They're labeled as "out for delivery" right now.
It's funny how I feel like a kid who is awaiting Christmas morning, over something that I already know isn't going to change my life very much.
I've already unlocked the bootloader and rooted a spare smartphone, an Android this time, and I'm only now getting around to doing a full "Nandroid backup" using TWRP recovery. It's something that's recommended much earlier in the process of breaking free from the original software, but it's better late than never.
