Graphene OS has had just about enough of Google not doing more to make Android compatible with custom ROM projects.

TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

      That’s not exactly a great solution. It works, but it’s a shitty workaround at best.

        Not disagreeing I was genuinely asking.

        For me it wouldnt be too inconvenient but I barely use banks so my perspective is atypical

          I do basically that, but with aSamsung tablet, then my phone can be for phone things, calls, messages, emails. Then if I’m out and about and need to check my bank, mobile hotspot to my phone and go from there.

      thats what i do atm, but its a shitty solution when i have a perfectly good phone. it defeats the purpose.

      the irony is, my second phone is probably less secure, because its stuck in an ancient version of android.
