Root the phone and remove insane garbage like that. Rip and tear until it is done.
How about you just wipe and install Lineage OS
It's in lineage too. Found it on pixel 7a with actual LOs 21
ah fuck. every day i just wana quit android more for a Brick phone.
Honestly I was in the same boat until I got a Fairphone...
And now I'm in the same boat again. Honestly cannot wait until GNU/Linux mobile devices are viable 🙏
I own a Pinephone64 allready but its still far from the baseline funktionality of a android device. It has hardware switches for the wireless modules tho...
I've thought about getting one, but it'll just be a novelty until it can support MMS properly (trying to get family to switch) and battery lasts a full day. I'll need a few more apps, but I'll figure out how to get it working through emulation or something if the above are fixed.
It shouldn't be unless you installed google apps
