Thank you for your hard work. But the Pixel 6a, 6, 6 Pro yet don't have an update to the same level as the other Pixel since version 2023011000 ?

"kernel (Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro): update Mali GPU driver to QPR2 Beta 2 release
kernel (Pixel 4, Pixel 4 XL, Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a (5G), Pixel 5, Pixel 5a): update base kernel to Android 13 QPR2 Beta 2" GrapheneOS version 2023011000

Has this update been tested on Pixel 4a 5G phones? It made it impossible to connect to cellular network and to WiFi on both Pixel 4a 5G phones I have and after this update SIM cards are not detected at all. Factory reset has no effect either...

I mentioned your issue in the matrix room for testing beta and alpha releases. The release is still in beta.

New release for Pixel 4a (5G) is now available. If you installed the previous Alpha / Beta, the simplest solution is using USB tethering from another device to do an over-the-air update.

Alternatively, download https://releases.grapheneos.org/bramble-ota_update-2023012600.zip and sideload it.

I already performed full factory wipe. Would my bug report data still help? Are you officially working for GrapheneOS? I won't be sending any data of/from my phone unless it is so and can be confirmed.

farmergeek

muhomorr I can confirm same fault with my pixel 4a(5g) - was running alpha release channel.
Will endeavor to send through bug report later today.

OpenSource-Ghost

Just tested Pixel 4a (non-5G) and it was not affected by this bug.

They're a GrapheneOS dev, or at least they're a regular contributor. Just check their commit history or the GrapheneOS Github organization members list.

I believe the bug report should still give them the info they need even though you factory reset.

I'm using Google camera instead of GrapheneOS camera and I'm disabling GOS camera via adb, but seems GrapheneOS camera is mandatory now.

Settings: add GrapheneOS Camera to list of mandatory components since only system camera apps can provide the media capture intents required by other apps on Android 11 and above (can still be disabled via ADB but we want to avoid easy ways to break the OS in the UI)

I can't disable GOS camera now or what are the adb commands to do this?

Thanks

Just curious why you are trying to disable it?

The change notes make it quite clear disabling it can break things, which is why the change was introduced.

[deleted]

treequell I always disable apps aren't using 😅

treequell

[deleted] In that case, just leave it there and ignore it.

[deleted]

[deleted] why dont you just switch to launcher that allows hiding apps if it pains you to see it in app drawer?

GrapheneOS

[deleted] You are using it whether or not you're directly launching it. It provides the system media capture intents. Settings UI for disabling it was removed because users don't know this. Wanting to disable it even after we've explained this only further demonstrates the important of making it harder to break the OS while still offering the ability to disable it via developer tools.

I had GOS camera disabled before the update. Now I cannot enable it. I use Gcam so it is not an issue so far.

Which device do you face this issue on?

notnn

notnn Update : I enabled the camera app through adb. Everything works fine and can now not be disabled through the phone settings, as intended

Essjay

My 4a 5G also lost all connectivity.

[deleted] most (if not all) 3rd party launchers lack features like themed app icons or proper cooperation with gesture navigation.

notnn thanks somebody else has reported the same issue on a Pixel 6
