Thanks so much team :)

thank you so much.

great work :-)

looking forward when it comes to stable in a couple days :-)

Is there an ETA for stable? Probably 1-2 days, right?
By the way, can you switch back to stable after installing an alpha/beta update? or are you permanently locked into pre-release channels?
I guess you just have to wait until the version you're on becomes stable (no downgrading) - but it's better to make sure.

    GGORG No you cannot switch back due to rollback prevention.

    The developers will probably make a new release before even moving to beta channel, because there are many reports of Google Play Services crashes related to a missing Bluetooth stub, and GBoard crashes if one has installed GBoard as ones keyboard.

        you guys are incredible. Must say GrapheneOS feels like the iOS under Android. Extremely fast updates, high security and always one step ahead of the other manufacturers.

        ryrona I don't want to downgrade, just to know if I can move to stable when a new stable release greater than or equal to the one I have installed gets released.

            [deleted] none, this release is still in pre-alpha and will not be released to alpha. New release expected within roughly 14 hours due to a Google Play crash involving bluetooth that needs fixing.

                [deleted] Per GrapheneOS social media posts 5 hours ago: "Our initial release based on Android 15 is now available for early testing for technical users willing to sideload the release to their device. It's a regular production release and this can be done on a locked device with USB debugging disabled, but it's not heavily tested yet."

                  [deleted] Just to confirm, is it out as an alpha/beta update, or a stable release? Sorry if it's a dumb question.

                  It is out as an experimental release that has to be sideloaded manually.

                  You can check which is the latest released version for your device here: https://grapheneos.org/releases#devices

                  Latest update from the GrapheneOS account in the GrapheneOS Alpha/Beta Testing channel in the community chat rooms:

                  will not be moving it to Alpha due to the sandboxed Google Play Nearby Devices permission crash but we will try to fix that quickly and make a new release in 14 hours or so

                    GGORG I can move to stable when a new stable release greater than or equal to the one I have installed gets released.

                    You get the same version regardless of channel. The channel simply affects when you get the update. If you're on alpha/beta for this update, then switch back to Stable (before this update reaches Stable), then nothing will happen until the next update is released.
