GrapheneOS

Yes. Proton VPN, always on & kill-switch. Didn't notice any issues with the VPN tho, only with KDE Connect.

    Mobile network connectivity on Pixel 5a 5G (yes I know it's EOL with extended support only) is not functioning after this update installed. I have 2-3 minutes of connection with LTE networks followed by "emergency calls only" despite being in an area with very strong LTE signal. Toggling Airplane Mode or swapping between LTE and 5G restores connection for another 2-3 minutes but it is not a permanent fix.

    I have reset network settings several times and rebooted after each configuration change without restoring normal functionality. I will move to a new phone before the end of the year but I cannot do so right now.

      I also have a 5a and the mobile network is unavailable. I've tried various things like switching back to LTE only. Nothing works so far (for more than a couple of minutes anyway). This happened immediately after this update was applied.

        other8026 Pending the next release, can I roll back to the previous release (2024090400) to have a functional phone until the next version fixes the issue?

            Can confirm that phone/text messaging abilities get shot yesterday/this morning after the recent update on 5 and 5a's. I've installed grapheneOS on 100's of phones over the past 2 years (absolutely love you guys and the work you do) and it seems this is now a chronic issue with customers emailing me all morning. Have a few 6, 6a, 7 pro devices that work just fine after the update, but the 5's seem to be an issue... as outlined. Spent nearly 2 hours with carrier technical support and after trying everything imaginable, finally re-flashed the OS, and the same issue happens. Have pulled the SIM card to a different device and it works fine in other devices. So this appears isolated to the device itself and happened right after the update.

              MARK37 Also pulled other functioning SIMs into the Pixel 5 and the SIM will not work on the 5.

                MARK37 yes, many people with 5th generation Pixels are experiencing issues, issues that weren't caught during testing. A new release to undo the related changes is coming soon.

                    GrapheneOS updated this morning on Pixel 5 and now calls and texts don't work on Verizon. Internet seems to work but spotty. Anyone else having this issue?

                        Pixel 8, So Far So Good, So What! Thank you for the consistent hard work.

                        Dumdum Downgrade protection for OS updates and for verified is are important standard Android security features, not something specific to GrapheneOS. Downgrade protection for app updates is also a standard Android security feature, but it doesn't have verified boot for system updates. The section you're quoting is about GrapheneOS extending verified boot to system app updates.

                            Good to know. I am aware that downgrade protection is standard for Android though. I have a habit of using the website as a first reference, and that section was the first thing I saw that mentions downgrade protection.

                              other8026 Thank you for this good news. I cannot make or receive any calls with Pixel 5 now after the recent update. Looking forward to the new release with undos.

                                Yes thank you all very much for thr incredible OS and dev support, it's nice to be able to have an excuse not to answer my phone now. ;)
