  • In Graphene OS – what are the chances of failing installation / bricking my phone?

    i love Side of Burritos videos! thanks for that

    @angela @dregrinfuces @DeletedUser87 @NetRunner88 @de0u @lord @Aeon

    wanted to kindly thank you all for encouraging and helping me with the installation. it was done with MAC OS monterley and android 14 version which during GoS became 15.
    web installer was so easy and smooth, i had no idea it will be no brainer - i wanted to install this for few years now and probably scared myself too much seeing people bricking phones and having errors before web installation and overall setup was made much user friendlier

    anyone has any nice guide on how to "harden" (if needed) default GoS settings just fresh, after installation?

    i will also try to get some apps, such as banking apps for my phone via google play store, hope that is not a problem

    • In Syncthing for android discontinued

      It's really sad but thanks for sharing that news, @yellow-leaves.
      I hope other devs will make Syncthing's great idea continue its existence by forks as @DaRon already linked such.

      @Max-Zorin, LocalSend is also a great app but it serves a different purpose, at least for me.

      @dregrinfuces, I use Resilio Sync as an alternative. It's a proprietary app very close to how Syncthing works. I implemented Resilio mainly because of my laziness (the app has official back-end support for my NAS) and having an iOS client support, too. It was the easiest and fastest way to deploy a Syncthing-like solution for me.

    • In Navy Federal Bank App

      The Navy Fed app no longer opens for me as well. It's stuck on a blue splash screen with white globe.

      It seems this may be a common experience as @dregrinfuces, @PringleBread, and @spiral report it as well.

      I've posted a negative review in the app store.

      • Pixel 7 Pro
      • Latest GoS (Production)
      • Latest Navy Fed version
