Alright I think I'm all setup with my new number and back on degoogled android. Maybe one day I can run a proper Linux phone but this is at least a step in the right direction.

I posted this on Lemmy, but think it's worth reposting here. With the news that Google is locking down Android more, and making it more difficult to install apps of ones own choosing, there is likely going to be more interest in alternatives to Google branded Android.

The best general resource for instructions on how to unlock your phone's bootloader and flash alternate AOSP ROM's or non-Android OS's is https://xdaforums.com/

Please note that not all carriers and oem's allow you to unlock the bootloader though, so choose your device carefully for this.

You will also most likely need a PC (desktop or laptop) with adb & fastboot on it. These are apps used in the terminal, but you only need to copy and paste a few commands into them to use it.

If you have a Google Pixel then best option is Graphene - https://grapheneos.org/

For other devices you can use a "degoogled" Android ROM and get apps from the open source F-Droid app store - https://f-droid.org/

Some choices for this are:

Lineage - https://lineageos.org/

crDroid - https://crdroid.net/

/e/os - https://e.foundation/e-os/

Iode - https://iode.tech/iodeos/

OR use a a true alternative mobile OS. Options for this are:

Ubuntu Touch - https://www.ubuntu-touch.io/

Sailfish OS - https://sailfishos.org/

Mobian - https://mobian-project.org/

Postmarket OS - https://postmarketos.org/

Plasma Mobile - https://plasma-mobile.org/

Droidian - https://droidian.org/

You can also purchase devices with alternative OS's already preinstalled from:

Volla - https://volla.online/en/devices/

Jolla - https://jolla.com/

Fairphone - https://fairphone.com/

Murena - https://murena.com/

Furilabs - https://furilabs.com/

Brax - https://www.braxtech.net/

We did it beim DUT in Wiesloch.

💬 tuta.com: #Degoogled Photos? Yes, it's possible. ✅🏞️

The Big Tech does not need to scan & have access to your pictures & videos 👉 use a Google Photos alternative instead.

Очень полезно для повседневного использования!

https://github.com/AKS-Labs/CircleToSearch

Open-source клон Google Circle to Search без привязки к Google (хотя имеется отдельно функционал активации Google Lens), вполне неплохая замена, особенно когда разработчик допилит. Не отправляет на чужой сервер весь экран (если не используете соответствующую кнопку), как это делает Google. Только то что вы выделили.

Имеется автономное распознавание текста, работает на 100% локально на вашем устройстве, распознавание QR, несколько поисковиков (Google, Bing, Yandex) и т.д.

🇷🇺 Модель для русского языка OCR качаем из группы: https://t.me/AKSLabs/4341
Английский уже вшит. Другие модели также хранятся в группе.

Несколько вариантов запуска, но удобнее всего назначить ассистентом по умолчанию, в таком режиме ничем не уступает Google Circle to Search.

Очень жду встроенный переводчик!
