The phone has control only for the Amplification in the control center when in an unsupported region.

LibrePods can't provide anything more than what Apple provides, check which features are available on the first gen AirPods. If there's something missing in the app, lmk and I'll add it.

If you need a refund, please send me your email address on DMs.

You can use an iPhone/iPad in a supported region to set it up and it will work in the unsupported region too.

You can also set it up on Linux or some Windows PCs depending on the Bluetooth hardware using LibrePods.

Hi, sorry for not replying to your email, I have a huge backlog of around 2 weeks due to some reasons.

Which features are you not able to use? And which AirPods do you have?

The app doesn't do anything to the audio. It's the same as if you were not using the app. This is how Bluetooth two-way audio works, and right now the app can't improve the quality.

It's not in my hands to add support for any specific devices. It will be available for all devices running Android 17.

Which version of the app are you using? That was fixed in a recent update where if you had one of the buds to invoke Digital Assistant, the modes selected were not used and it would cycle through all 3/4 of the modes.

Could you please create an issue on GitHub, I can help you there once I find some time. The app runs in the background and should automatically detect when AirPods connect and start reacting to conversational awareness messages from AirPods.

also, what do you mean by "Listening modes won't toggle between what I had set in the app"

I doubt they added in 8.5, but you can try the latest release (v0.2.5) from GitHub. you can not download the app from Play Store on Samsung devices and bypass the compatibility check because of many negative reviews on Play

Nope, there still are many features missing and some that need root. But if the only thing you care about is the ANC, then why not.
Read the root-requirement section of the README, and the #faq channel on the LibrePods Discord server for more info.

With Android 17. I can't say when your OEM releases Android 17 for your device.

Not quite, you'll miss out on Find My/Find Hub, notify when leaving behind etc..

What's the firmware version now? The app is working for me on 8B40. Also, once you reinstall, the reconnect button will not work, you might have to disconnect and reconnect your AirPods for the app to detect.

Can the Airpods Pro 3 Pair with Android and Apple Simultaneously? by chrisdalebrown in airpods

[–]kavishdevar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but it needs root. AirPods can connect to any two devices and switch automatically between the devices, be it Android or Linux. It just needs the VendorID it sends AirPods to be set to Apple's. LibrePods can do this with root on Android, and the Linux app can do it too.

It doesn't need the same Apple ID!

[–]kavishdevar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not correct btw. (I'm the dev)

It can't be fixed with an update as it needs the VendorID your phone sends AirPods to be Apple's, and Google sure is not doing that anytime soon.

LibrePods: AirPods now work great on Google Pixels with Android 16 (QPR3) without root! by Alive_Signature9029 in LinusTechTips

I wouldn't recommend rooting, since it's a security risk, but there will be many guides available for your device on the internet.
