#aurorastore — Public Fediverse posts

@mattwebbdev

Sorry for challenging the question, but would you consider using #AuroraStore? Search for RFID as well as NFC.

Update: Solution from https://nrw.social/@Uli_aus_Aachen/117250855279688695 worked. Thanks.

Can anyone give me a hint in how to solve a problem with #AuroraStore?

I have two apps "waiting for user confirmation" in the notification. If I tap on these notifications I am taken to the app in the store. The app there is "installing", both "cancel" and "open" are greyed out. I cannot do anything with these apps, they are not getting installed, I can't restart the process, restarts of the store or phone won't help.

I'm clueless. 🤷‍♀️

Since @calyxos has resolved it's issues and has published current versions again, I've flashed my #FP4 which is running #Android 16 now and is back on OTA updates.

I've used #seedvault for the first time and I'm very impressed! This was the best set-up process on a phone I had so far. Seedvault restored nearly everything without any issues. Thank you so much!

A statement by @volla OS about the lock incoming :

« #Google's announcement that it will only allow apps from the Google Play Store to be installed on stock #Android has caused irritation among users. First things first: #VollaOS is not affected by this, as it is based on open source Android (#AOSP) and remains open source itself. In addition to the #AuroraStore, users will still be able to install and use apps from #FDroid or other sources in the future. »

@jonathan859 Nice article. I had very similar experience a few months ago. My only difference is that I'm running this on Pixel 9A.

In order to give some more tips on what to explore next I'd say add @IzzyOnDroid repo to your f-droid install from apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/

Then some nice and accessible #opensource apps are:
@AntennaPod
#auroraStore as a google play alternative,
#catima - a privacy respecting app for lojalty cards,
@davx5app - contacts / calendar sync from your own server if you wish to slowly stop using google for that,
#fairEmail - nice very accessible email client,
#makeacopy - for scanning paper documents,
#newpipe - for playing youtube / bandcamp / soundcloud content,
#openKeichain - for signing / encrypting your emails with fairEmail,
#rsaf - for connecting to various cloud storage services including your own smb / ftp / webdav servers,
sms import export,
Speak that! if the talkback notification presentation is not enough,
walkers guide - nice navigation app
Ytdlnis - an yt-dlp frontent.

Perhaps there are more but I have browsed my apps list and recommended what I think is essential.

APP sofort Google- und Apple-frei unterwegs mit @GrapheneOS

Gleich auch mal die Spendenmaschine für verschiedene Projekte anwerfen. Danke an alle.
