    After deleting googles safetycore, do the following to ensure Google doesn’t reinstall it.

    1. install the latest release of Obtainium
    1. Via Obtainium, install Safetycore-placeholder

    it might take some messing with Obtainiums settings to ensure that the latest version of the saftycore placeholder is installed so here is an export of my settings just for this app. Just copy the text and save it as a json to import the settings.

    {"apps":[{"id":"com.google.android.safetycore","url":"https://github.com/daboynb/Safetycore-placeholder","author":"daboynb","name":"com.google.android.safetycore","installedVersion":"v3.0","latestVersion":"v3.0","apkUrls":"[[\"Safetycore-placeholder.apk\",\"https://api.github.com/repos/daboynb/Safetycore-placeholder/releases/assets/232142109/"]]","otherAssetUrls":"[[\"v3.0.tar.gz\",\"https://api.github.com/repos/daboynb/Safetycore-placeholder/tarball/v3.0/"],[\"v3.0.zip\",\"https://api.github.com/repos/daboynb/Safetycore-placeholder/zipball/v3.0/"]]","preferredApkIndex":0,"additionalSettings":"{\"includePrereleases\":false,\"fallbackToOlderReleases\":false,\"filterReleaseTitlesByRegEx\":\"\",\"filterReleaseNotesByRegEx\":\"\",\"verifyLatestTag\":true,\"dontSortReleasesList\":false,\"useLatestAssetDateAsReleaseDate\":true,\"releaseTitleAsVersion\":true,\"trackOnly\":false,\"versionExtractionRegEx\":\"\",\"matchGroupToUse\":\"\",\"versionDetection\":false,\"releaseDateAsVersion\":false,\"useVersionCodeAsOSVersion\":true,\"apkFilterRegEx\":\"\",\"invertAPKFilter\":false,\"autoApkFilterByArch\":true,\"appName\":\"\",\"appAuthor\":\"\",\"shizukuPretendToBeGooglePlay\":false,\"allowInsecure\":false,\"exemptFromBackgroundUpdates\":false,\"skipUpdateNotifications\":false,\"about\":\"\",\"refreshBeforeDownload\":true}","lastUpdateCheck":1740740003732409,"pinned":false,"categories":[],"releaseDate":1740416435000000,"changeLog":"This release is signed, you need to uninstall the previuos version.","overrideSource":null,"allowIdChange":false}]}

      This doesn’t load in Obtainium, and trying to validate the json gets the error below.

      It looks like the value should be a simple list of strings, but everything is escaped and it has double square brackets, and it’s enclosed in quotes.

      Why would obtainium be needed instead of installing the apk directly?

        Oh yes you can install directly. Obtainium will install help with upgrading to new versions however as they get released.
