6 months in, and I can't imagine going back. Use the web installer if possible, it is quick and really easy. Then immediately create a secondary user account for the Google compatibility layer, if you want that shit. I dont but I need my bank app. Keep it seperate. If you wanna use Google apps sometimes, have a separate user for that. You will gain quite a bit of battery without Google calling home every couple minutes. But if you install the compatibility layer in your main profile it becomes a chore to move to another account.
"He's a business man. He knows business."
"Actually, we're a constitutional republic..." & "Our thoughts and prayers..." are both candidates, I could come up with way more.
That functionality requires a high tier subscription, and even then you have to watch 4 of the same advertisement before it says "Happy Birthday!"
Is that a thing? Anywho... you are correct.
The dress, it's power grows.
This means a lot to me and other crab people. 🦀 ❤️
Shh! Don't give them ideas.
Just disabled that through Canta with Shizuku rather than adb on a Samsung Note 20 and rebooted. Should be fine to disable.
It says it has an update for itself. So you click your notification and it opens Obtainium. It downloads a newer version of its source, builds it for your phone, changes its path to the new one and exits abruptly. When you restart Obtainium it's the new version with all the same settings. Magic!

Buy a second hand pixel 8, 9, 10 pro, xl or not, based on your budget. I wouldn't recommend older. Then after loading GrapheneOS create a couple user profiles. While in this screen remove the ability of the profile to run in background. Use one of these sandboxed users as a Google phone. Install Google Play Compatibility through the graphene installer. Now you have a Google option. Some banking apps won't work, and the McDonalds app won't work. Google is then sandboxed and not running constantly. If you need a Google app, you can switch over. And without background profile running enabled Google services will completely closed when switching back. No reset needed, just like 3 seconds loading. If you install Wattz (fdroid) you can see the power draw reduced in nongoogle mode. The root profile can share apps, create and delete profiles. I guess one downside is you need to learn multiple login passwords. Also no tap to pay ever.
