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:

Is CalyxOS ran by crypto/ai crybabies, fascists, and/or generally shitty people? I would like to know before I change my phone OS yet again.

… I'm getting tired of this shit…

@calyxos
The Satellite SOS function of the new Google Pixel Phones works via a preinstalled ESim by Skylo. I didn't find any secure information, wether it's possible to send an emergency Message via Satellite via this ESim under CalyxOS.
Can someone Help?

Privacy apps and Open Source Projects like #Signal #Tuta #proton #Mastodon #GrapheneOS or #CalyxOS operate freely because India completely respects secure tech that follows local laws

But #JackDorsey shows clear double standards and a #Hinduphobic past. Twitter blocked the US President for Capitol Hill but ignored Indian laws during Red Fort riots. Recently at Jantar Mantar, his app #Bitchat was misused offline to spread anti-national threats. Free speech cannot compromise national safety!

@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

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!
