What was Samsung thinking?
>>109640029LOL
finally getting rid of this pos phone [spoiler]for another pos phone[/spoiler]
Why are you shilling Blokada? They're a bad faith actor. F-droid and privacy community widely agrees that RethinkDNS is superior.
>>109640172chill out, man. I am just copying and pasting the original OP. I won’t do it again if you don’t want it there. I use NextDNS personally.
>>109640172Blokada is superior AI developed code, retard.
>>109640089guess ill wait until the 12
Will the OnePlus 16 work on T-Mobile
Global Smartphone Sales For 2024 and 2025.
>walled garden Google will be locking down Android harder…. it’s so over.
>>109640196Here's what AI says: "F-Droid and the broader privacy community view Blokada with skepticism due to the 2021 discovery of undisclosed telemetry embedded in its app via rebrandly.com, which contradicted its privacy-first branding. F-Droid maintainers independently validated the tracking concerns after their own investigation, ultimately flagging the app and leading to its removal from the repository—a decision the community largely supported. Blokada's dismissive response—blaming F-Droid and accusing competitors of spreading FUD rather than transparently addressing the telemetry issue—deepened distrust among privacy advocates."Nobody even mentioned AI here, retard.
>>109640361Probably but it's a guess at this stage as we don't know what baseband support the phone will have. With no global release, the phone will have an English language option but some of the software will be in Chinese and stuff like Android Auto, Maps, etc., won't be compatible.>>109640472Agreed, it's a shitty move which will eventually lead to Pixels with locked bootloaders but at the moment there are ways around to install unsigned apps.
>>109640695Enable Developer options if you haven't already. Then, go to Settings -> System -> Developer options, find Allow Unverified Packages, and toggle it on. You need to confirm your PIN or password, restart your phone, and here's a kick in the tits, wait 24 hours. After that, go to the unverified packages menu again, scroll past additional warnings, and choose either Turn on temporarily (7 days) or Turn on indefinitely (preferred).
>>109640472This is more concerning, the removal of pm uninstall for system apps. I have root for all but one device which I won't upgrade past Android 16.>muh pm disableNo, fuck that. When I remove bloat like Meta App Manager and the companies other apps that Meta pay OEM's to bake into their firmware, I want their software permanently deleted. Having them suspended in the background but possibly able to wake after an update is not worth the risk.
