• Hi,

    Is there a way to easily restore a saved configuration of GOS? I am not talking about SeedVault backup/restore features but a way to configure system settings after a fresh installation? The same way we can do with linux dotfiles. My idea was to make a shell script using adb calls for example.

    Thanks.

    • Thank you for your answer. I was already aware of these Simple apps, but they doesn't suit my needs since they are not as elegant as the Material You one.

      Does AOSP apps are going to get a redesign (in the future by AOSP community or maybe GrapheneOS team)?

      Until this happen (or not), do you think I can replace Contacts with the Google one? (Network off, but is the app still able to communicate with others like Google Play and then leak my contacts?)

      Sorry if I wasn't precise enough, I am not a native speaker.

    • Sorry I didn't explain that I want to degoogle as much as possible. I mean that I am okay to install Google apps only if no data are sent back to them.
      Since I am running Google Play services, I use Play Store for security, but I don't want Google to get my contact list or phone calls. I know their apps can communicate between them, that's why I am asking what is the list of "safe" apps (like the one I already installed).

    • Hey guys,

      First, thanks to the developers for your amazing work. I want to know if there is any plan sooner or later to give the default apps a little refresh? The UIs are quite old now, especially since Material You is out.

      Right now, as a temporary replacement, I am using Google apps without network access (Clock, Calculator, Gallery), since they can't leak (I think?) any data. Do you think I can do the same for Contacts for example, or maybe Phone (I am less confident about this one)?
