Just waiting for Asahi Linux to get microphone working and I can finally use Fedora on my M2 Air all my other computers run Linux. Dropped Windows over 15 years ago it was bad then and it just keeps getting worse every update.

Carrier services isn't required for RCS anymore pixel phones brand new don't even have it installed.

Yeah that is a limitation of iOS because Apple is so aggressive with background tasks most photos apps don't upload in the background unless you only use iCloud.

I just tested it on android it does backups in the background for me on android 14 as long as I have it unrestricted on app battery usage if it's restricted it won't upload in the background make sure you have it unrestricted so it can run in the background.

Yes running it now graphene OS runs amazing but why is the stock OS so bad it should not be that horrible.

Yes it was up to date latest version February security patch and all also my hotspot didn't work got verification failed Google Support and my carrier could not fix it and then the Google support rep said if Graphene OS worked better then the would just go back to if it was them like what you recommend I go to graphene OS I thought it was funny.

So I bought a 7a have had it for a week I got it for Graphene OS I tried stock Google android for 2 days I had to toggle airplane mode for a working data connection over a dozen times each day battery was crap and phone got super hot unable to hold it. I have now spent a week with Graphene OS and wow No data issues at all signal is great. Also phone doesn't get hot just a lil warm when doing something like gaming battery is miles better. Also on stock android the launcher would freeze and you had to lock and unlock the phone until it unfroze and it did this dozens of times 3rd party launchers had the same issue. So my conclusion is it's a great device if you run something other than stock Google android.

This only affects payments using nfc as graphene os certificate would not match Googles.

That is very dumb with Verizon in the US you just type in the esim imei online and submit it and it auto downloads and activates the esim on your phone very easy.
