Essentially, do I have until September to root my Android phone?
>>108813436No? Why?
>>108813452https://keepandroidopen.org/
>>108813436You have until September to buy an older Android smartphone, ideally one that has good hardware:https://www.gsmarena.com/search.php3?nHeightMax=140&chk35mm=selected&sFormFactors=4&idQwerty=1&idCardslot=1
>>108813510Old and new phones are equally affected. The coming lockdown isn't a system update but a server-side change to the Google Play Services.
>>108813436Just kill Google Play Services with Shizuku+Canta or adb.
>>108813505That stops you from installing apps, and even then only on "android certified" devices. If anything the incentive to root post september will be greater
>>108813505"trap door" meanwhile people who know what they're doing aren't affected while all the tech babies are filtered out by the scare tactics, I don't want every normie on the planet patching youtube with revanced lest actual measures be taken against it
>>108813525You need adb for Shizuku anyway, why not just cut the middleman out and adb it?
>>108813505>developers need to verify>reduces jeet scam apps>does not effect any normal user>still able to download apks after 24hourskys faggot useless thread
>>108813638>kysKill yourself, coward.
>>108813522Nice. This will separate the New Normal NPC retards from the rest.
>>108813638>Scam appsName one. I just want to see how retarded one has to be to fall for it or how clever jeets have become that people are easily convinced.
>>108813638Oh yeah because Rakesh Pooesh couldnt possibly verify his shitty vibecoded app.
>>108813794>implying that fraudster would publish malicious applications under their real identityretard
Why don't we have something like a Linux phone that could just run apks in a container like how PC Linux runs Windows stuff?
>>108813436No, you just need to enable dev options and accept scary pop ups and wait a 24h cooldown.This is good, for my retard boomer family members, so they won't install adware anymore. And you should use GrapheneOS anyway... wait for the Motorola Phone or get a used Pixel.
>>108814080Congratulations you invented Jolla SailfishOS.*only legally available in Europe
>>108814316>checks it out>runs systemd cancerSo you escape googleshit just to get anally ID attestated by poettering?
>>108813803yes, he would, because a jeet or chink face literally 0 repercussions for scamming westerners
>>108813803An Indian or Chinese fraudster would, the fuck are you gonna do with a name like Ching Chong or Rajeesh?
>>108814354>not only wants a Linux phone>but also demands they use a special snowflake init system instead of the standard used by almost all distrosSome people will never be satisfied
>>108814448I don't need a linux phone period, i need a non castrated phone that supposedly won't comply with future mandatory ID attestation even for loading a fucking webpage. Retard.
>>108814603You don't understand age verification and are mad for no reason kek
>>108814649>t. frog getting boiled slowly
>>108814681>t. someone who hates systemd because of an optional component to ensure distros remain available in California and other states once certain laws take effectFollowing the law? No! They're malicious. Don't blame lawmakers, blame Lennart Pottering!
>>108814724>blame Lennart Pottering!At least something we can all agree on.
>>108813638wrong, jeets use stolen ID, shell companies and mules all the time
>>108814724>optionalSee you in 5 months. See you in a year.
>>108814298adware is legal malware, you can get it in the official store
>>108814724piracy was part of bbs and internet, then these legal retards came in
>>108813436You have to enable apk installs and wait 24 hours once. After that it will be the same as it is now. This is so overblown. This will only protect normies from getting scammed while having no real burden to advanced users.
>>108813436if youre to retarded to click a checkbox, yes.
>>108813436Essentially your little goy balls are in a vice no matter what you do
>>108813638>letting a corpo decide when you can install programsYou can see the glow from this post while in space.
>>108816540Just buy an iPhone, oh wait, that's worse.>I can't install a malware version of ReVanced without a 24 hour cooldown period>this is the end of the world
>>108814841>no real burdenExcept I have to wait 24 hours.
>>108813505Is this coming to Chinese ROMs too? If I buy a Huawei, I should be fine right?
>>108813436just get a pixel and install play services in another user account
>>108813621Shizuku werks with wireless debugging. You don't need to connect your phone to your PC.
>>108813436just run adb install <your apk>
>>108819187Are you living in China? A Huawei phone would be running HarmonyOS (a non-Google Huawei fork of Android without Play Store), and probably already has restrictions on what kind of apps you install due to being controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. But this particular restriction wouldn't apply.
