  1. @mattwebbdev

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

  2. Update: Solution from nrw.social/@Uli_aus_Aachen/117 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. 🤷‍♀️

  3. Got a weird tech question, and I'm not sure which forum to post it to, so I'll put it out into the fediverse ether!

    I use #lineageOS on a #Fairphone3 and most of my apps are installed via f-droid. But some are installed via #AuroraStore, when there isn't an fdroid version.

    I'm not signed into Google play on this phone.

    Most apps just work, but there are 3 which do a weird thing, and are unusable as a result - when they start they just spin out to a Google Play sign on page.

    What's going on? And is there anything I can do about it?

    The apps are:
    play.google.com/store/apps/det

    play.google.com/store/apps/det

    play.google.com/store/apps/det (I haven't tested this one recently)

  4. @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.

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

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

  7. Zapraszam do lektury kolejnego wpisu z serii o Androidzie. Tym razem będzie o aplikacjach "must have", czyli o takich które najprawdopodobniej będziemy musieli zainstalować po pożegnaniu wujka G.
