CalyxOS est de retour

Trying CalyxOS on Pixel 8.

Signal, CoMaps and DAVx^5 (CalDAV, CardDAV and WebDAV) are installed with the OS, nice touch.

Android version 16, stock would be 17.

#CalyxOS Trip Report

Trying this due to the recent... unpleasantness... with GrapheneOS, and Calyx is pretty much stock Android Open Source Project with some security/usability apps installed (Tor Browser, Thunderbird, etc) and a tight integration with F-Droid, Aurora Store (the open source Google Play Store front end), and microG (the open-source reimplementation of Google Play Services). So far it's a nicer experience around the edges than Graphene with some stuff (it has the full charging control for battery lifespan implementation unlike Graphene just having the flat charge limit option), but there's one or two surface-level things I miss (no option to not have the length of your PIN visible on the lock screen.)

microG so far seems to work with every app I have installed, but I don't phone game or do mobile payments with the exception of Solid Explorer not being convinced I paid for the ad-free version... but also the ads aren't working either so yay? XD

My SeedVault backup successfully transferred from GrapheneOS with no issues. That's the first time that's ever happened. SeedVault has been so useless for me in the past.

I'm willing to guess Calyx doesn't have as many of the hardening things GrapheneOS claims, but also given their behavior earlier in the week Graphene's threat model is in doubt and I don't trust them to do it right anyway.

First impressions are pretty good, so I think I'll stick with it for now unless something catches on fire or given the way things are going in open-source these days it also gets milkshake ducked. :ac_sighing:

#Android

@parthipan @ulfi @ex hier auch, aber bald nicht mehr. Wegen dem update bug, der ein komplettes rück setzten erfordert 😡

Deswegen werde ich zurück zu #calyxos gehen. War es das bessere system.

#fairphone4

So even though #CalyxOS has started releasing again, I think I'm gonna stick with stock #Android for one main reason; #RCS. There are some family members and friends that are just never going to migrate to #Signal, and the end-to-end #encryption available in RCS seems like an acceptable, pragmatic compromise, especially since even #Apple is rolling out support for it. Is it as private as Signal? No, but it's better than the SMS I would have to use on Graphene or Calyx.

Meine Startbedingungen sind etwas anders: Ich habe das 'ungesicherte' #calyxOS auf dem #Smartphone, bin also schon länger #entgoogelt. Nur es gab immer weniger App-Updates, insbesondere die Banking-App wollte sich jetzt nicht mehr aktualisieren und funktionierte somit nicht mehr.
Root, Entwickleroptionen, OEM-Entsperrung ist alles kein Problem gewesen. Nur die Installation bleibt hängen. Die Firmware-Updates sind mit calyxOS wohl auch nicht mehr aktualisiert worden.
Die Firmware ist auf dem Stand Mai 2025 (März 2026 verfügbar), scheinbar noch für Android 14, während calyxOS schon auf Android 15 ist.
Firmwareupdate habe ich nicht hinbekommen. #e OS kommt bis zu Schritt 9/24 nach https://e.foundation/installer/ danach wird das #Fairphone5 nicht mehr erkannt. Ich muss mal ein paar Foren bemühen... Demnächst mehr!

Bei der Recherche bin ich über den Punkt 'Mobile Datennutzung immer aktiviert' bei den Entwickleroptionen gestolpert. Damit waren dann reichlich Updates wieder möglich: Aurora hatte mehr als 20 Updates für mich im Angebot - nu geht auch das Banking wieder - Ups!
Das ist mir bei Verifizierungsaufgaben schon früher aufgefallen: Über WLAN geht's nicht, auf mobile Daten umgestellt und schon ging alles durch. Traurige Erkenntnis.

Weitere Erkenntnis: Mein Arbeits-WLAN #eduroam geht nicht, wenn die SIM-Karte aus dem #Handy ist! Was werden den da für Daten gebraucht um ins WLAN rein zu kommen? - huiuiui!
