GrapheneOS version 2025022700 released
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.
Does blocking callers not in contacts also help with reducing attack surface?
Since when can you block callers that aren't in the contacts?
Where is something in the release Notes

It shows up in the latest release notes:
enable support for blocking callers not in Contacts

BaronAfanas Thanks! I thought an announcement meant stable but now I know that they go through testing (alpha, beta) first before they are pushed into stable channel.
About Network Location. Organic Maps don't see me indoors, other maps and iPhone can see me in a couple of seconds as expected. Is it normal?
Probably a dumb question, but I will need to have WiFi on for the new location thing to work right? Even when at a later date I can download the database on my device. Because I always turn WiFi off when on the go.
Jdjdoefndbej Did you enable network location and Wi-Fi scanning via Settings? Try rebooting afterwards.
When network location is enabled, is GPS turned off? If not automatically, is it possible to manually disable it to save battery?
- Edited
GrapheneOS Sure. Reboot didn't help. I'm using Organic Maps web release from GitHub with all permissions given.
It doesn't work for me in Vanadium too.
What quality of life feature! Wasn't able to use my digital id app on my tablet previously since it requires location to activate. Turned on Network location with GOS proxy and it worked like a charm!
Fantastic work team đź’›
GrapheneOS I'm having the same issue as @Jdjdoefndbej, my location isn't found indoors, it works fine on Apple devices. I assume that's due to missing cell tower scanning?
Jdjdoefndbej avenging1683 Need more details on your setups and also logs from the Network Location app via the View logs feature in App info. You can show system apps in Settings > Apps and search for network location to find it.
vincente213 It depends on how apps are written and their configuration:

It's possible not granting precise location access would do it, but we haven't investigated it.
Jdjdoefndbej avenging1683 Are you using Battery Saver mode? Try without it. You might need to set Unrestricted battery usage mode for the Network Location app. We can do this ourselves in the next release as a hard-wired exception.

1 user profile, no Play Services, never tried to turn developer options on, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning on, network location through GrapheneOS proxy, SUPL and PSDS Graphene too.
GrapheneOS Battery saver turned off. Unrestricted battery didn't help.
