Re: Ride Share apps

  By: TheSuit on March 26, 2024, 4:33 p.m.

Unfortunately there is none that I am aware of. I've been riding taxi's for the past 3 years when needed and managed to avoid Uber/Lyft entirely. Not feasible for everyone... but there was once a time when Uber/Lyft didn't exist and we all still man…

Re: Virtual Credit Cards

I'm of the same opinion. Use a prepaid debit card to remain anon when purchasing online. If someone can convince me otherwise, I'm all ears but I feel like the different virtual cards are solving a problem that's already been solved.

Re: Will the Ghost Phone provide the same camera functions as the Google operating system?

  By: TheSuit on March 12, 2024, 12:54 p.m.

Camera functions do not change at all, simply the application that utilizes and manages the camera on the device. You'll find the vast majority of the functions that Google has on their camera app are also used for the GrapheneOS camera app.

Will the Ghost Phone provide the same camera functions as the Google operating system?

  By: TheSuit on March 12, 2024, 12:54 p.m.

The Pixel 7 Pro camera seems to rely heavily on software processing, so I'm not clear on how a change of OS will affect the camera functions. What should I expect in this regard? Especially, the zoom functions.

In general all Linux based systems for laptops/desktops and the open source GrapheneOS mobile operating system are much safer as no programs are able to execute on the devices running these operating systems without you being notified and giving exp…

Re: K-9 Mail and Outlook

  By: TheSuit on March 6, 2024, 10:22 a.m.

Ted, to best troubleshoot what is happening here we need to know more about what specific email accounts you are trying to access and if you are using Outlook as a respository for emails or if you have a specific @outlook.com or @live.com email acco…

Re: Adding an app in the Sandbox Account w/ Google Play Services

  By: TheSuit on March 4, 2024, 11:11 a.m.

You do not need to login to Google Play. Remember, this is a brand new account and environment you just created, so you now need to re-download and install the various secure app stores to pull the app you're looking for.

-Open the Vanadium browser…

  1. But now I’m confused as to what to do next to down load the app he…

Unfortunately the apple watch is really only designed to work with the iPhone. Although there are some ways to get the watch to pick up phone calls and text messages, all the real benefits most people want will not port over to anything outside the …

Thoughts on Patriot Mobile?

  By: TheSuit on Feb. 26, 2024, 3:53 p.m.

Short version is that Patriot Mobile is a solid option. We've been trying to get in touch with their leadership for obvious reasons (we've sent them likely 50+ customers over the past year) with no luck for over a year now so if you DO talk to them,…

Go to:
F-Droid app -> Updates (bottom right) -> Update All (follow prompts)
