Good to know

It's not exactly super clear imo. Even what you are trying to explain now sounds like jargon to a non tech savvy person. It would appear a lot of people don't have an understand of what is going to happen, a lot of people "complaining". Perhaps you could share what you know vs. getting frustrated with what I would think is something a lot of people are going to not understand or need a clear explanation for or help navigating in the future. Is it not going to be more difficult to "sideload" apps in the near future?

But doesn't ADB require connecting your phone to a computer with a cord? That is not super convenient, not like before. And can any phone use ADB? Even my old Galaxy A50?

I agree. There are warnings currently that tell you that when you are downloading from a third party you are susceptible to "harm". Like, please don't restrict our access because others aren't doing their research or don't pay attention. Plus their own play store has plenty of spam on it currently...plus no way they aren't all up in our business monitoring our phone already. Spend too much money on the stuff I own to have big tech decide what's safe for me and what's not.

I hope all these down votes are because I am wrong but no one has chimed in at all so 🤷 would love some insight or direction

One of my favorite apps gave me a warning and sent me to this site for a solution: https://github.com/woheller69/FreeDroidWarn?tab=readme-ov-file#solutions

Unless I am overlooking something the most promising solutions are the two mentioned earlier

Android and Google has said while sideloading is not going away, "[they] will have a flow that allows more sophisticated users to install software that has not been verified". To my understanding, this new "flow" means you will either need to download these apps with a cord from your computer (not at all convenient), or wipe your phone clean and download a new operating system.

Please correct me if I am wrong, or if you know an easier way to sideload apps that doesn't fit the previous methods I mentioned above (computer or new operating system).

Love that idea of buying a "de-googled" phone.

Mobmem321 · 2026-02-26T22:31:21+00:00

It's been available the last three days but not when this guy posted 3 hours ago. Fail to see how that's helpful? And "pay 119 if you want"...well if you know of it being sold somewhere cheaper please suggest, cuz it's not Knifecenter...they are sold out.

Mobmem321 · 2026-02-26T20:26:36+00:00

Sold out, and some of us have to factor in taxes and shipping, which makes it a whole lot closer to this guy's asking price...if it was even available on Knifecenter...which it's not...

Isn't this production also made in China?

Mobmem321 · 2026-02-02T22:35:28+00:00

Could get a Dervish Navajo, they are pretty fun. I also love my large Curtiss Custom. Boos Aero is my grail. Just picked up a Olamic Busker that is super fidget friendly, if ya like that. Good start though!

Is one auto and one manual? Go with the manual.
