LineageOS takes a stand on Google’s new sideloading rules

https://www.androidauthority.com/lineageos-android-verification-rules-sideloading-3684281/

Frage bzgl. Android:
wird zukünftig auf einem Standard Smartphone, mit den regelmäßigen updates, eine APK-Installation per sideload noch möglich sein? Google plant doch Einschränkungen?
#android #sideload #google #smartphone

No i #RNode zadziałał także na smartfonie z #Sideload . Drugiego bym musiał skonfigurować by to jakoś potestować bo nie sądzę by się coś w eterze znalazło.

Just saw this from a fellow #fossuser #freedomatrisk
I have been using an offline translator from F-Droid repository. One of the newly updated mobile banking App (Canara Bank) denied login saying that Slideloaded application "Translator" is unauthorized and risky. Forcing to uninstall that App to continue Mobile Banking!!

Is this related to Google's devil move of not allowing any apps out of Play Store?

Have requested for an image if can be presented now. This reminds me of my case with #hsbc app.

#Google details new 24-hour process to #sideload unverified #Android apps begins later this year.
Actual legwork to activate this feature only takes a few seconds, but the 24-hour countdown makes it something you cannot do spur of the moment. But why 24 hours? According to Samat, this is designed to combat the rising use of high-pressure social engineering attacks, in which scammers convinces the victim they have to install an app immediately to avoid severe consequences.

Näin Androidin ns. sideloading eli muualta kuin Play-kaupasta hankittujen sovellusten asennus vaikeutuu jatkossa

Asentamiseen tulee vuorokauden viive, ennenkuin sovellusta pääsee oikeasti käyttämään.

The upcoming sideloading method on Android is not as bad as I thought, but I still haven't thought deeply about it, I'll post something about it later, for now here's how it's going to work:

Just in case anyone missed it:

In September 2026 #Google will lock down #android to prevent you from installing apps from alternative stores like #fdroid or even #sideload them.

They did *not* back down.

They say it's for #security but it not.

It's to control your #phone, your #apps, your #freedom.. and by extension.. *you*.

Help prevent this insanity.

@fdroidorg Would you consider #sideload a form of gaslighting?

Keep Android Open!!!

https://keepandroidopen.org

In August 2025, Google announced that starting next year, it will no longer be possible to develop apps for the Android platform without first registering centrally with Google.

#Google trips over its own words, when they sell you #Android it's the best computing device in the world that does everything. After you bought it Google doesn't let you do anything *you* want to.

#Sideload is a made-up term. Putting software on your computer is simply called “installing”, regardless of whether that computer is in your pocket or on your desk.

@jonah Great to see that you touched on the #LinuxMobile option. I'm daily driving #postmarketOS on my #Librem5 and it's good enough to do most of what I need - the only thing does not work is recording sound in videos. Even running #FOSS Android apps using #Fdroid, #Obtainium, etc. on #Waydroid works, although the #LibertyPhone with more RAM and storage is better suited for it.

There's also the #FLX1 (runs #Droidian-based #FuriOS) which comes at a more affordable price, and Android app compatibility set up out of the box. I think that is more 'normie'-friendly and has decent specs overall compared to true Linux phones. Camera quality is as good as Android as it uses Android kernel and drivers.

Oh I Hate this!

Fist Google making the use of custom roms a lot harder with safetynet garbage,
Then companies like Samsung disabling the Bootloader Unlock option,
And now this.

Might as well just buy an iPhone at this point. My only hope right now is Linux Mobile.
