Hi everyone, I found a petition against Google and their limit on APK files.
https://www.change.org/p/stop-google-from-limiting-apk-file-usage

Here you can find Keep Android Open a bit like the campaign against chat control, it already has the contacts of every government to stop this.

Anuncio de Google:
"A partir de septiembre de 2026, Android exigirá que todas las aplicaciones estén registradas por desarrolladores verificados para poder ser instaladas en dispositivos Android certificados"
Fuente: https://developer.android.com/developer-verification

Es hora de cambiarse a /e/OS, VollaOS o Ubuntu Touch. Yo uso /e/OS y lo recomiendo para el usuario promedio. Ubuntu Touch es para los más técnicos.

I don't have a verified Android but most people do. Time to change to /e/OS, VollaOS or Ubuntu Touch. I am using /e/OS and I recommend it for average users, while Ubuntu Touch is for the most techies.

Motorola just announced a long‑term partnership with GrapheneOS, including a future phone that ships with the privacy OS preinstalled. 🧩

They’ll also bring selected GrapheneOS security features to other Motorola devices over time, boosting hardening and privacy for more users. 🛡️

Algunos de los mas fieles defensores de #GrapheneOS me han preguntado ¿por que prefiero y me gusta #eOS

Y yo solo puedo responderles con lo siguiente

Para mi, no es tan relevante como se llame el #Android #DeGoogled mientras este sea accesible, lo mas universal posible, con la mayor #transparencia posible y con un futuro posible (y quisas otras cosas, que en estos momentos se me pueden estar pasando)

GrapheneOS es muy limitado... orientado unicamente a los dispositivos del propio G00gl3, lo que para mi personalmente me obligaria a adquirir un aparato, que me hace sentir que le estoy apoyando (todo lo contrario a mi posicion)

Esto es solo mi posicion

Pixel Watch 2 - Privacy Preserving Setup

I've been trying everything i could think of to make the watch work under GrapheneOS - Here is what i learned:

• Unpairing the Watch means factory resetting it.
• Every feature (literally everything) is google dependent (who would have thought.. i know)
• Pairing with your phone requires the "Pixel Watch" -App to be installed on your main profile (not work, not private space) alongside Google Play Services. There's no way around.

This is obviously unacceptable. So i did a bit of research and found a way that will not only be way more practical, it will also be private.

First i created a second user on my Phone, installed Google Play Services and the pixel watch app on it, logged in with a newly created google account and completed the setup.

I know some people use a chinese version of the WearOS app to bypass the google login. Since i don't want a chinese app to configure my watch, i didn't even try that.

After the watch was set up, i continued and:

• Deleted the user profile from which i connected the Watch
• Enabled wireless debugging
• Debloated the watch as good as possible (i will have to root the watch in the future to properly do it)
• Removed the Google account in the settings
• Cleared all Bluetooth preferences
• Enabled Bluetooth discovery
• Installed KDE Connect on it (not meant for WearOS but it does work barely)

The watch is now in a state where i can use it daily.

But i also want to make use of all those fancy quality-of-life features, like heartrate monitoring, sleep tracking and so on.

Now comes the fun part.

I've created a basic Kotlin project with both a mobile and WearOS app.

I will implement features like:

• Notification sync
• Call notifications
• Media Player Control
• Weather (openweathermap)
• Heartrate monitoring
• Sleep tracking
• Do not Distrurb Sync
• Homelab integrations (Nextcloud, Immich, Uptime Kuma, ..)
• And much more ..

The goal is to keep the watch offline, let the phone do the heavy lifting and communicate with a selfhosted database. I may even add a frontend and an API so people can integrate it for their needs.

Sounds good but why don't you just buy an #opensource #smartwatch like the #pinetime - You may ask.

Because as much as i hate to admit it, i love the design, the look and feel of the pixel watch. And i'm sure that i'm not the only one.

I also bought this one cheap for around 120€ #refurbished. So the value i can get out of it seems pretty good to me.

So much for today. I haven't even started tackling the Bluetooth connection yet 😅. Let's see how that turns out

I have added a poll to this post to see how many people would be interested in a setup like this. Please let me know if you have any suggestions, ideas or expertise in that regard.

Cheers.

Va un artículo en mi blog. Hablamos de irnos de las plataformas usanianas que dominan el mundo mundial, pero rara vez hablamos de ello, sino simplemente cómo cambiar una por otra. Propongo empezar por el principio.
