A simple JavaScript function that takes two hex color values and calculates their contrast ratio (according to the WCAG 2.0 guidelines).
var contrast = function (foreground, background) {
var hexToRgb = function (hex) {
// Expand shorthand form (e.g. '03F') to full form (e.g. '0033FF')
var shorthandRegex = /^#?([a-f\d])([a-f\d])([a-f\d])$/i;
hex = hex.replace(shorthandRegex, function(m, r, g, b) {
return r + r + g + g + b + b;

SD card formating fix via ADB shell when Android GUI fails (internal, portable/external or mixed). Works on Retroid Pocket 2+

I wrote this short tutorial because extending my internal storage using my new micro SD card on my Retroid Pocket 2+ failed all the time. Only setting it up as portable/external worked. However, this instructions should work in any Android 5.0+ device.

So, in case you have problems setting up your SD card on your Android device via graphical interface (setting up storage as extended internal memory or portable), and you get a corrupted SD card or any other error, follow these steps to fix it via adb shell:

  1. Make sure you have adb access to your Android device: Settings > System > About, touch/click on Build number until Developer options are enabled:
  2. Go to Settings > System > Developer options and enable USB debugging.
  3. Assuming you have adb installed on your remote terminal run the following: 
    

    4. 



adb shell
