Not a single app on my phone was installed through Google Play, it’s all Aurora. Guess if apps really do this i’ll just have to stop using them, cause I’m not installing the play store.
I wish i can degoogle my phone but its a few months old so no rom support and its a samsung :<
Samsung isn’t one of the best for roms. Anyway you could stop using it while you port Lineage OS
this is the reason phone selection for me is based on what it supports.
but samsungs are ruled out anyway. their service centers desttoys your phone if you have asserted your ownership of it, their software is way too unnecessarily complicated (not the part you see, but the low level part that complicates the flashing process), and they are generally a garbage company.
oh yeah you have to use their own software to flash but i never had samsung destroyed by them and they killed samsung dex pc app for mac but i think in a few years rom support for my phone will improve and there is also gsi roms you can use
How is it being a samsung making things worse? I’ve never flashed a samsung phone before so I may be very wrong, but isn’t unlocking the bootloader easy?
And now that I think about, does samsung have their own system file format or something? Is that the issue?
Quick question: what is the advantage of using Aurora to get apps instead of the Play Store?
I have Aurora but i don’t understand that, afaik both use the same APKs and can update interchangeably?
At first I thought Aurora remove some of the app’s tracking beacons but that’s not the case.
