I remember being excited about android updates. Now I just want Linux on phones to be usable
My white whale
Not updating if they take away Installing 3rd party apps and bootloader unlocking.
Good luck with that. Installing third-party apps is done through Google Play Services and it auto updates without your consent
That ship has sailed, i got my s22 nuked by an auto update in March 🫠
My pixel has an update they call security patch but it is a fix for charging speeds, camera shutter, etc.
Fear every update
well ig i got lucky i attempted to root so it does not allow the update.
next time my phone may be (If Google does not do the sideloading thing):
Motorola (if they put GrapheneOS)
Google Pixel(idk if it will be easy to find)
Its awful and I want to throw my phone out the window… And get a linux phone
I just did the 8.5 update on my S25. What about it do you not like?
The icons are all weird looking, the clock app groups are different and now it turns off all alarms in the group which I don’t want, the material accent color changed and Theres no way for me to change it back, the lock screen fades in weird, the lock screen does a tint based on the image but it looks like baby poo cause my lock screen is me by a cabinet with my cat so it tints it brown, the notifications have weird swipe animations, and my app names are white and they used to be black, so I can’t read them against my wallpaper
