Thread 105885997

which custom degoogled android roms that you've used would you recommend?

>>105885997 (OP)
graphene just werks

>>105886012
Proof?

>>105885997 (OP)
Graphene

>>105885997 (OP)
Nothing.
I am employed (READ: it means I have a job), hence, I need banking apps.

>>105886045
I'm single.

>>105886061
Work on my machine. Using graphene btw

>>105885997 (OP)

>GOY ME HARDER RABBI!!!!!!!!!!
kill yourself

GrapheneOS is extremely comfy although I don't know if I would be able to daily drive it due to lack of banking apps. However I ran it on my second phone and it was really really good.

I have some questions about Graphene:

1. What "independent" organizations have audited Graphene's code?

2. How are these organizations funded/who is funding them?

3. Which entities are the biggest sponsors of Graphene OS?

>1. What "independent" organizations have audited Graphene's code?
none
>2. How are these organizations funded/who is funding them?
the NSA and the FBI
>3. Which entities are the biggest sponsors of Graphene OS?
Mossad, CIA, FSB

Which one has the best app compatibility? Especially for gacha. If it can't play gacha, it's shit.

>>105886194
source?

okay I get it, graphene is good, but isn't it kinda ironic that it's a deGOOGLED rom that's only available on GOOGLE pixel phones? I would use it but I'm not paying that price for some phone.

>>105885997 (OP)
Graphene OS and Lineage OS. I recommend Graphene OS

>>105886219
The reason why it's Google phones is because you can unlock their bootloader to actually install Graphene. It's not really a conspiracy.

I've been using ungoogled Lineage for years and it just werks, literally

>>105886230
you can unlock the bootloader of almost every single phone you frickin' chud is one thing... relocking it and not having e-fuses blown is another

>>105886168
This is what perplexity says:

1. **Independent code audits:** There is no public information in the provided sources confirming that GrapheneOS has been audited by any *independent organizations* specifically for its codebase. The official FAQ and related sources do not list any such audits or organizations involved[7][9][11]. If you require a list of audits or third-party security assessments, it is best to consult the official GrapheneOS website or contact the project directly.

2. **Funding of organizations:** Since no independent audit organizations are publicly listed as having audited GrapheneOS, there is no information about how such organizations would be funded in this context.

3. **Biggest sponsors of GrapheneOS:** GrapheneOS is primarily funded by **donations**, including individual contributors and sponsors via GitHub Sponsors[1]. You can view the current list of sponsors and major donors on their GitHub Sponsors page[1]. There is no indication of large corporate or institutional sponsors dominating the funding; the project is community-supported.

>>105886384
It is true. It is trust me bro OS

>>105886063
I'm convinced

>>105885997 (OP)
LineageOS

>>105887151
that or you can just pay some dude on telegram 40 bucks for an instant unlock

>>105887160
what the hell are you even talking about? can a factory worker from beijing unlock my phone remotely using the imei?

>>105887173
no basically the dude tells you to install some remote control software and he controls your pc to unlock the bootloader from you. not sure how he does exactly but worked fine when I did that last month kek
>inb4 dude installed a trojan or some bs like that
I'm not retarded, I used a VM and nuked it once he was done

>>105886139
From what I read, can't you use sandbox google services to use banking apps?

>>105887849
not sure i did install it a little while ago

>>105887849
my banking app works with microG, didn't need to install google play shit

>>105886061
>banking apps.
lel

>>105886061
>I need banking apps.
I can do everything that my bank's app does from the web version.

does graphine not work with tap and pay banking apps?
if memory serves I used to have them working on my old rooted 1+

>>105885997 (OP)
lineage is jeet tier and maintained by literal whos

calyx is silghtly better

graphene is easily the best but supports fewest devices

i haven't used a custom android since 4, but i wouldn't recommend. or unlocking bootloader even. i just need a phone that works, and the oem os will work, while custom has loads of bugs. if you need to do anything power user do it on pc.

>>105888574
>while custom has loads of bugs
This is only true if you use some rando's ROM from XDA. Official LineageOS/GrapheneOS is very stable, definitely more so than stock.

i use evolutionX on an old shitty galaxy tab a7 lite. works for me.

>>105885997 (OP)
where's cyanogenmod

>>105888930
lineageos is the successor of cyanogenmod

>>105886219
Can you please stop spamming this bullshit and pretending you haven't been corrected hundreds of times already?

>>105885997 (OP)
I *only* recommend GrapheneOS.

>>105889440
its anom phone all over again. see>>105887114

>>105885997 (OP)
I currently have calyx on my pixel 2 xl. I think it is pretty silly. Graphene is probs better.

>>105885997 (OP)
Lineage is just works

>>105886197
Everyone of them can run games. Apps compatibility depends on the requirements of the app, which is almost always if Google Play is installed.
Compare them here: https://eylenburg.github.io/android_comparison.htm
If you can, I suggest you to go for GrapheneOS.

>>105886125
Bank apps, cashapp, and venmo don't work on graphene.

>>105889704
works on my machine

>>105886061
>I am employed
>I need banking apps

Must be a vibe worker. You can do all you need to do with banking via their websites. Apps are usually just stand-ins for the website anyway.

>>105887114
This, forced auto updates are the only reason I don't use grapheneos. Graphene could be compromised and then the feds could push an update to compromise your super locked device. With manual updates you can wait to make sure there are no exploits later down the line.

>>105889749
can't you just remove network access from the updater app?

>>105889704
Why you fags keep making up bullshit?
Daniel the schizo is no longer a schizo, he's right.

Learn to read.

>>105886168
It's funny how you'll ask this of a ROM that you're going to install on your Android device, but you won't ask it about the web browser that you're posting this from.

>>105889583
lineage doesn't have supl disabling, which pings ur phone 24/7.

also they use google dns. also no duress pin or security features or multiple users

>>105887114
Read the toggle. You misinterpreted what it does.

>>105889749
Nobody is forcing anything on you. You can disable the updater.

>>105888635
That one is made by a seamonkey schizo even more unstable than GrapheneOS one. Using an old build is fine, but I wouldn't update it in case he implemented some time bomb after having another meltdown. Once he archived github repos "in protest" so what's stopping him from nuking everyone's devices.
