GrapheneOS is such a staple for me now. Been waiting for it to be released for the Pixel 8 since I got the phone at launch… it doesn’t have the annoying search bar or the unmovable widget telling you the weather… Regardless of the security and privacy it offers… And its just pretty.
Yup
Edit: google pay works and my banking app works (relatively small credit union)
Google pay doesn’t work.
Yes it does? Literall ordered food with it tonight.
Sorry, I mean contactless payments
“You can use all the other features of Google Pay on GrapheneOS, just not NFC contactless card payments. It’s unlikely that will change. You can make NFC contactless card payments through your bank’s app, if they happen to provide their own implementation, as opposed to relying on Google Pay.”
🤦♂️
I dont understand this reaction… google pay is more than just contactless payments…its also the auto fill of payment info on various sites and apps…that works perfectly and is what I was referring to.
I personally dont use contactless, or tap to pay at the register… ill try it today wheb i get gas just for fun and report back.
That’s interesting. Does it not require root ? Wouldn’t that trip safety net ?
Graphene passes one of googles 2 safety net checks, most apps will work, but some require google to have explicitly verified the users os, which grapheneos does not pass
No root needed, all my banking apps work as expected
I would look into it but I can’t lose access to banking. They didn’t work on lineage os
Does lineage have the google play services sandbox that graphene uses?
No if I remember it was just download gapps. Graphene I think is better
The way they implement the google play store on graphene might fix whatever was not working for you on lineage.
Yeah I think it probably would but I wouldn’t be messing with it until I was sure. Lot of work to then have to flash it back
