GrapheneOS does this work when someone isn't using a cellular network or WiFi?
It would be nice if one day these requests can be routed through VPN and then Tor (Port 9050) for those of us who don't trust anyone ever.
This is a cool feature and thanks for making it opt-in.
will be extended with much more functionality in the near future including ...our own network location database either via a service or offline database downloads (we're in the process of building our own database...
Cool improvement, can't wait to update it on my 7a
Testing this on 8Pro so far first impression is that it seems a bit less responsive when unlocking? Tested on three different profiles with different pins and all had same weird behavior where not all clicks were registered. Will report back after testing some more. I have improved touch responsiveness enabled.
So that's what you've been working on recently! Thank you very much :)
Given that "5G only" and "4G or 5G only" modes are now available, I'm curious to see how the official stance on LTE and 5G will be updated. I know 5G has some security benefits but I can't figure out whether I should use it, just yet.
Network location in Location Services works great !
My configuration: Location Services > Network location > GrapheneOS proxy. Using Organic Maps: Offline Map and Google Maps in a second system-wide profile, the device is indoors, the device's location works, if I disable Network location, the device's location doesn't work.
The addition of 5G only or 4G/5G only is also very welcome.
GG to the GOS team as usual, it will be great when the functionality is extended to cell towers etc.
Would like to see an option for "GrapheneOS Developer Recommended Defaults" after each update, with a diff of what would change. For older installs that might not have caught up.

I would not expect anything to be changed. The purpose of these features remains attack surface reduction, by allowing the user to enable only the minimum set of protocols they require. The latest changes merely provide more flexibility than previously.
If 5G offered any significant security improvements (or known additional risks), that would likely have been discussed extensively here, and a 5G-only feature would have been added much sooner.
Bottom line: the previous advice should still stand. Avoid cellular networks if you can. If you must use them, enable only the protocols you need to get coverage in your area.
enable support for blocking callers not in Contacts
How will it work with secondary profiles? E.g. if this is turned on, will it block incoming calls from numbers that are saved in Owner's Contacts app but aren't in the currently active profile?

Well, it has to be at least slightly updated now.

I recall somebody discussing it here, although not extensively.

Probably9857 or known additional risks
For now, 4G-only mode makes more sense since 5G has a lot more attack surface.

Yes, the cellular network isn't secure and 4G / 5G Only is simply a way of reducing the attack surface, but that's also because before, 5G coverage was much less deployed than 4G coverage, 5G coverage is now expanding.
Which network location settings are best from a privacy perspective?
Are there any benifits of WiFi location over GPS other than it works better indoors?
If we use WiFi location what information is sent to GOS or Apples servers?

What do you think is routing / transporting your packets in this combination? I am really not sure if you're trolling here, or you really have no clue how any of this works but watched one too many doomsday yt vids.
Xtreix before, 5G coverage was much less deployed than 4G coverage, 5G coverage is now expanding
Yes, that is the way of the universe... newer things replace older things. Not sure what point you're trying to make here.
All I was saying there is that if 5G did have significant security benefits over 4G/LTE, GrapheneOS would likely have made 5G-only a higher priority, rather than waiting for it to be more widely available.
Since GrapheneOS did not do that, we can infer that the project does not view 5G as a significant improvement in terms of security.
Seems to me like we are in agreement.
0xsigsev he wants to loop himself into the 3rd Dimension ???
Sorry but VPN and Tor is not a good idea in case you don't know exactly what you do
Murcielago wait what, you can stop anyone calling you whos not in your contacts? how does one do this?
Are update rollouts staged or does it take a few hours after a post is made for a new version until it gets pushed to all GOS devices? Because my device doesn't find the newest update. It says that I already have the newest stable release installed.
riOrthra First they roll out alpha, then beta, last the stable version.I have it already, as I am on the alpha release channel. Just be patient.
