I thought you were using graphene...
Yeh..... I'm on a 6a with Graphene and nothing has changed.
My SO also has graphene on a pixel 6a and it's chugging along nicely, like it always has. She doesn't even charge it every night, so that's 24+ hours of use per charge. Please look into your battery, something might be wrong.
Agreed. Maybe check app battery stats? I found that home assistant app in some configurations kills my phone in 4 hours.
Well, I just checked on the stats of the battery, and the status says "dead"
So maybe it's just a coincidence it happened at the same time? Battery is at around 700 cycles.
I've been planning to get a Pixel 6 to run Graphene.
Do you know if that's still a viable plan to avoid Google's recent side-loading bullshit?
From what OP said it sounds like Google is kinda closing that door but your comment leads me to suspect OP is mistaken?
Google's new EEE tactics should not in theory impact custom ROMs such as Graphene, especially considering Graphene goes out of its way to avoid using any G stuff unless sandboxed.
So, unless i'm mistaken, google's updates shouldn't impact graphene phones...
thanks!
It won't affect it directly but it's likely a bunch of developers just quit making 3rd party apps for the 12 people running custom ROMs.
As said below, it won't affect users right now running custom ROMs, but it will impact the number of persons able to use them
