not sure if this has been found before, but i found this on soulseek. this seems to be lower quality overall than the file we have, but the right channel doesn't cut out halfway through. also doesn't seem to be a remaster. https://pixeldrain.com/u/5D1nBgUg
💀😱⚠️ YOUR PHONE IS ABOUT TO BE HIJACKED: THE DEATH OF ANDROID IS NEAR! 🩸🔒💣
Starting in 2027, a silent background update forced by Google will PERMANENTLY LOCK DOWN every single Android phone on Earth. 🌍💥
If a developer hasn't surrendered their passport/government ID 🆔, handed over their private encryption keys 🔑, and paid Google a fee 💰, their software will be REMOTE-KILLED & BLOCKED WORLDWIDE. 🛑📱⚡
🚨😱 DO NOT LET THEM DESTROY THE OPEN WEB & MOBILITY!

Hi everyone,
Today we are rolling out the first version of the advanced flow. The advanced flow gives power users the option to install unregistered apps (i.e. apps from developers who choose not to verify their identity) on certified Android devices without the use of ADB.
As a brief recap, Android will require all apps to be registered by verified developers in order for users to install them on certified Android devices. Developer verification links real-world entities with their Android applications, making it much harder for malicious actors to quickly distribute more harmful apps after we take the first one down.
Since verification launched in March, millions of apps have been registered already, covering nearly all installs on Google Play and a large majority of installs from outside of Google Play. Thus, most users’ experience of installing Android apps will not change at all. However, we recognize that some developers are choosing not to undergo verification and that some power users want the option to install apps from these developers, so we’re rolling out the first version of the advanced flow to provide this additional option.
We will initially verify app installations from Google Play, HONOR App Market, OPPO App Market, Galaxy Store, Palm Store, V-Appstore, and GetApps starting September 30, 2026 for users of certified Android devices in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand. In 2027, we will expand verification globally for all app installations on certified Android devices.
Ahead of the enforcement of developer verification, we’re rolling out the first version of the advanced flow so power users can choose to enable it early ahead of general availability. We’re still working to polish it, so please share your feedback with us!
Note: The advanced flow is:
Important: Enabling the advanced flow is a one-time process that will take 24 hours to complete and includes safeguards to help ensure you are not being coerced or pressured into turning off protections.
After enabling the advanced flow, you will have the option to install or update apps from unverified developers. You’ll still see a warning when you try to install or update an app from an unverified developer, but you can just tap “Install anyway.”
If for whatever reason you need to temporarily disable the advanced flow, you have a 10-minute window to re-enable it without going through the 24-hour waiting period again.
a few notes:
- drive and gmail ill replace when I get around to buying a proton subscription
- im using stock pixel os because I don't like graphene (requires giving up a lot of features I use, camera is shit, don't feel like wiping my device, root isn't really supported, can't spoof play integrity, etc), although it's degoogled as much as possible. I might look into doing more with root though or see what alternative custom roms can offer
- google search I've kind of half-replaced with selfhosted searxng, although I still use it more than I'd like
- google maps ive tried to replace with comaps and osmand, but osm coverage in the us isn't the best.
- google messages and wallet I can't replace unfortunately, I need rcs and tap to pay
- youtube is pretty much the only google service I can't replace at all. I might look into newpipe and stuff in the future though
- I switched to arch linux a while ago, before I got into degoogling at all. it's definitely not a good beginner distro, especially for someone only looking to get away from big tech and not wanting to tinker with their computer a bunch
also I know I shouldn't use both bitwarden and bitwarden auth, I just haven't gotten around to switching.
My phone is bootloader locked so I cannot install custom rom I'm so scared for september I want to be able to sideload help guys please keep android open https://keepandroidopen.in !!!!!!
I was looking through the granular ADS-B data provided by Flightradar24 (https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/flight-tracking-news/major-incident/k2-airways-cargo-737-accident/) and saw that the ADS-B data stopped transmitting right after the aircraft began its second descent. The last data point is from a satellite, from over one and a half minutes after the last ADS-B data. is this normal for crashed planes (does it take a while for the aircraft to send out the data?) or is it indicative of something else, such as a power failure?
I've seen so many vibecoded morphe patches, even the official patches are obviously made with help from AI, and I recently saw someone on this subreddit release a full ai toolchain to create morphe patches automatically. I don't really have a problem with ai being used as a tool in software development, and I'm not as anti-ai as a lot of people are, but I've been creating my own morphe patch without ai, and while it's definitely been hard, it's been really fun and I've learned so much about the way android bytecode works and the process of patching it. if I vibecoded my patch I wouldve experienced none of that, and while I would have a working patch that would be useful, for me the journey has been a lot more rewarding than the end result. and while I can definitely understand that after you've made a few patches it becomes less exciting, and using ai as a tool to help with the annoying things at that point is understandable, I've seen people asking how to start creating morphe patches on here, and people just responding by telling them "oh yeah [x ai tool] was able to make one for me" and it makes me angry, because while I'll admit making patches is difficult, it's extremely rewarding and I don't want people to not experience that just because it's easier to let claude do it. back in the revanced days before ai coding there used to be so many patches made with just pure human creativity, and it's a shame to see that go to waste.
https://keepandroidopen.org has been constantly posted about on this sub and in other places, but one look at the site and it's so painfully obviously llm generated. like I would be fine if the UI was vibecoded or something, but literally all of the text is also ai generated. it doesn't look like a single human even touched the thing. on top of that, the language and design is extremely fearmonger-y, and leads a lot of people to be scared that it's way worse than it really is. for example, the main page of the site says in big bold text that there's "no opt-out", when this is blatantly false. when it does mention the workaround later down the page, it makes it sound so much harder than it actually is, and doesn't clearly state that it's a one time process. I don't think it's necessarily bad to be angry about this, but keepandroidopen's website is very weird imo.
Hi, I'm developing a Morphe patch and I need a way to log stuff in order to properly debug my patch. I've tried using the standard Android Log function, but for some reason I cant import any android.* functions. If there's any way to log or even show a toast that would be really helpful. Thanks!
