VAULT Will it go to beta before a stable version comes out or straight to stable after this experimental?

    PMUSR Typically, as I understand it, for a normal update, the GOS devs after working on the code (fixing bugs, updating security patches from Google, etc), release the code, first via the Alpha Channel, if there's no significant problems for those who set the phone update channel to Alpha, then a day later (?) its moved to Beta Update Channel, then a day later, moved to Stable Update Channel. This slow release lets the devs catch any missed problems BEFORE it hits every pixel on GOS :) I assume this process will also be followed for this major new phone model release...

      VAULT Thanks for the explanation. Safe to use when it hits stable or would it be wise to wait a few weeks more when stable update is available just to be sure that no security bugs slipped through?

        PMUSR I would expect once it hits stable, any big problem would be discovered quickly due to the number of users... if all is well 48 hrs later, go for it.

        Was wondering if anyone had any experience where the app did not recognize headphone plugin. When I launch apps like Pandora or YouTube, does not recognize headphone plugin, I have to reinsert the headphone into the jack for the app to recognize.

        Not sure if this is a GrapheneOS thing or a Google Messages thing, but when I send an sms it appears as though the message has been sent twice (i.e. it appears as a duplicate in the message thread on my end) but the person I'm sending the SMS to only receives one copy. Anyone else had this or know how to fix it? Many thanks in advance.

        Hi everyone, I'm new to the GrapheneOS universe and have installed it on a Pixel 8 Pro:

        Here's the behavior I've noticed: When I reboot my phone, I can still see the apps used before the reboot (swipe up into recent app view).

        I use multiple profiles and could observe this behavior in the Owner Profile and also in User Profiles, and even there I can still see all the apps I used before the reboot.

        Is this a bug or a feature? I would have thought that this data would be deleted after a restart (unfortunately I don't have another phone to check if this behavior also occurs there and is an Android behavior).

          Murcielago This seems to be normal behavior. On my Pixel 7 Pro running GrapheneOS stable I am experiencing the very same as on my Pixel 8 with the experimental version of GrapheneOS.

          Hi everyone,

          Ive been using GOS for over a year on a p6p and a p7p. Im moving into a p8p, GOS is loaded and almost everything is working so far. Strange however when installing the apps on my new p8p coinbase is not showing in the playstore. I tried aurora store its there but never installs just says getting metadata. I am using the coinbase app on my p7p with GOS and the android 14 update any ideas? Thanks for your help. Also noticed the pixel thermometer does not work even with permissions granted

            linked to google play from coin base and it says app not compatible with this phone???? my other banking apps work??

              So... coinbase is still working on my pixel 7 pro, android 14 with GOS. I was able to update it (oct 14th CB update) with aurora store but it does not show up in the play store on that phone either so it appears its being blocked for some reason

                ts55 craigslist app is also doing this, hope there is a solution...thanks everyone

                I have an issue with aux adapters while using YouTube.
                Sound dissapears alot and for some reason when using an aux adapter the play/pause button on the screen wont dissapear unless i lock and unlock my device.
                But the sound issue is still there.

                L8437 No you can't, and never will. Unless Google finally consider Graphene OS as certified. Spoiler : It will never happen.
