How to improve a meme in one easy step
deleted by creator
Like that stupid ass notification ‘internet disabled for this appliation. Go to settings to re enable it. Press ok to continue’. I know, i’m the one who disabled it in the first place, get lost.
This makes me irrationally angry. I don’t need my phone babysitting my ears and the notification doesn’t happen nearly frequently enough to matter anyway. It can be a distraction, especially while driving, i always think i need to pull over to answer a call but nope, just a half assed hearing protection measure.
Does anyone know of any apps or ways to disable the feature on android?
Ideally disable all the nanny features and block forced updates. If I fucking want an update, I will prompt it myself.
Copied from other comment:
There’s an app for that: https://github.com/zacharee/Tweaker
You’ll need to use adb to grant special permissions that an app can’t request on its own.
adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.DUMP- Audio & Sound --> Disable Safe Audio Warning --> Disabled
- Persist Options --> Checkbox Disable Safe Audio Warning

Every device I’ve seen do this can only reach lower levels of volume than most of the ones that don’t (PCs, Walkmans, headphones with built-in radios…)
It’s like that “save electricity, unplug charger” popup that I only ever saw on phones with switching power supplies, whose zero-load power is several orders of magnitude less than the heavy transformer ones. Or the constantly-moving 🔇 icon on LCD TVs, although it takes many consecutive days of a static picture to burn them in as opposed to CRTs, plasma and OLED ones. Even then, shifting it by 1 pixel per minute would be enough and way less annoying.
I think this setting is reset on a phone reboot.
This and the “Are you still listening” pause EVERY OTHER SONG on my playlist is just so helpful. Helpful, that is, if the intent is to give me a fucking aneurysm.
What are you using that does that? That’s annoying af.
It started recently on YouTube revanced. The only reason I’m still on YouTube at all is my 1500+ song playlist I’ve been curating for, i dunno, 14 years? Revanced and ublock kept me from hearing or seeing an ad for years, but this is really motivating me to just say fuck it and move on.
Oof, damn that’s painful to leave behind. The downfall of yt to a completely unusable platform has been awful. Newpipe might let you play without the reminders on mobile if you are interested in trying another app before you make tye leap to a new platform. I’d bet there is a tool on github that will export your playlists too. Sorry, not trying to fix everything I promise. A 14 year active playlist is an impressive thing though and I’d hate to see that lost.
What?
This fucking thing must be a kernel level thing, because even AOSP ROMs can’t get rid of it.
Fuck my hearing. What about my liver?
The liver is evil and must be punished.
What?!
It’s a Samsung “feature”. If you turn the volume up high enough, it warns you about hearing loss. Even if what you are listening to is super quiet so you have to turn it up to hear, and even if you are connected to a speaker.
Edit: Apparently it’s not just Samsung phones anymore, instead it is an Android 14 feature. And apparently some other OEMs have had a similar feature for a while.
WHAT??! I can’t hear you!
my phone at 80% vol is fairly quiet with my earbuds.
I’ve also noticed that this warning’s timing is quite random.
I always listen to music on my commutes and they’ve been the same commute for 2 years and Ive only seen this warning like four or five times completely out of the blue.
really should listen to this. I want to have normal hearing when I’m older.
I agree with the concern you’re raising, but most of the time I ran into it, I was using bluetooth to a radio that had its own volume control. The phone was just reacting to the volume setting, not listening and knowing it was too loud.
I haven’t seen that happen in a long time, though. I saw elsewhere in the thread there was a way to disable it, so I might have done that, but I don’t recall seeing it at all on the newer Samsung S24 I got early this year.
I mean im not demanding people to do it, but there’s a reason it’s a strong suggestion, also we are shitposting here so turn it up to 11 i guess
I think this is law in Europe. Here in Costa Rica I haven’t seen this in my Note20 Ultra. The closest thing is this
