Recovery Guide: Fixing Navigation Gestures on LineageOS 23 (Feb 5, 2026 Build)
Device: Redmi Note 10 Pro (sweet)
Encountered a critical bug where gesture navigation was completely broken after installing LineageOS 23 with MindTheGapps-16.0.0 (which threw an error during flash). The system booted, but the default launcher was unstable and system gestures were dead.
The Fix (Requires Root):

Google: все Android-смартфоны получат поддержку Apple AirDrop
Прошлой осенью смартфоны Google Pixel получили функцию прямого обмена данными с iPhone через AirDrop. Вскоре, по словам одного из топ-менеджеров Google, компания намерена реализовать такую возможность и на других гаджетах под управлением Android.

Wanted: there are a million different FOSS YouTube Music clients in F-Droid. But what I'd really like is something that'll provide me with license-free music. I'd love to play some slow cozy jazz while driving home on a Florida winter night without worrying about ads or whatever. Preferably something with Android Auto support in this case.

I've added a page of software recommendations to my website: https://aten.cool/software.html
I often find that I post on Mastodon either asking for recommendations or recommending software myself. This can be helpful, but these conversations are ephemeral. I also sometimes want to post «I'm having fun using Geany!» or something similar, but that doesn't feel worthy of a post on its own.
I sometimes really do miss the #android7 days with #xposed and #xprivacy where I could just blockallthe apps from accessing firebase or other tracking crap. Wish we had that on modern #android

Ich benutze #Tusky als #Android App fürs Fediverse. Da kann ich aber, im Gegensatz zum Browser, zum Beispiel keine Reposts mit eigenem Text machen.
Gibt's da vielleicht eine andere/bessere App? Ich brauche auf jeden Fall das Verwalten mehrerer Accounts als Feature und generell finde ich Tusky ganz gut. Aber das Reposten fehlt mir schon.

In breezyweather hast du gadgetbridge aktiviert? Ich glaube ich hatte dann noch beiden location access natürlich gegeben.
Galerie 4.0.2 aus FDroid auf Android 14 (Motorola Moto G53 5G) will seit einer Weile nicht mehr aufgehen. Ich komme nur bis zum Übersichts-Bildschirm, welche Rechte die App hat bzw. will, aber auf „Los geht's“ reagiert nichts. Nur „Abbrechen“ geht – und führt zum Beenden der App.
Ich würd die App schon ganz gerne weiter nutzen können. Jemand 'ne Idee? Oder ist das mal wieder nur bei mir so? 🤓
First impressions of native #emafe for #android supported by #termux on a #grapheneos. I am impressed on how well it works. A little slow, especially magit and gpg but great GUI and feeling closer to desktop. The init file still needs some work, but it got all my packages up and working

Knife Cutting the Edge: Disclosing a China-nexus gateway-monitoring AitM framework
Cisco Talos uncovered 'DKnife', a sophisticated gateway-monitoring and adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) framework comprising seven Linux-based implants. Used since 2019, DKnife performs deep-packet inspection, traffic manipulation, and malware delivery via routers and edge devices. It targets various devices, including PCs, mobile devices, and IoT, delivering ShadowPad and DarkNimbus backdoors. The framework primarily targets Chinese-speaking users, with evidence suggesting China-nexus threat actors as operators. DKnife's capabilities include DNS hijacking, Android application update hijacking, Windows binary hijacking, anti-virus traffic disruption, and user activity monitoring. A link to the WizardNet campaign was also discovered, indicating a shared development or operational lineage.

"FreeOTP+ ne peut pas utiliser le réseau".
Mais qu'est-ce que j'en ai à branler, #Android ?
1) cette application n'a pas BESOIN d'aller sur internet.
2) je sais très bien qu'elle ne peut pas, puisque c'est moi-même qui lui ai coupé la possibilité d'accéder au réseau dans les réglages Android.
Mais qu'est-ce que c'est con, comme OS.
(Non je ne vais pas passer sous GrapheneOS because reasons.)
We bought our first car with a media center & phone integration jazz.... and I'm both flabbergasted & not at all surprised that you can't easily stop the phone from automatically connecting to #Android Auto & even forcing bluetooth back on when you turn it off. 🤬
You have to do a bunch of workarounds & developer settings and MAYBE it won't connect so often. FFS.
Alt...
There is no never option for connecting automatically.

Chrome OS: Google has set an internal expiration date
Google has set an internal expiration date for Chrome OS. The replacement, Aluminium OS, which is based on Android, is also not expected to launch this year.

5 years of updates: Which smartphone manufacturers are adhering to this
Since June 2025, the EU has mandated 5 years of updates. Not all manufacturers are complying, but there are positive exceptions among affordable smartphones.

5 Jahre Updates: Welche Smartphone-Hersteller sich daran halten
Seit Juni 2025 schreibt die EU 5 Jahre Updates vor. Nicht alle Hersteller halten sich daran, doch es gibt auch positive Ausnahmen bei günstigen Smartphones.
Unfortunately #OpenSource is #US controlled anyway.
We can hope to sneak some patch in, as with #xzutils, but there's no way to make #Chromium or #Android development "sovereign".
Try hard fork them.
Same for "open standards": what if a standard (#QUIC?) only serves the need of US #BigTech #hyperscalers and surveillance (0-RTT?)
Then sure, while getting rid of US Tech it would be wise to get rid of proprietary software too.
But #DigitalSovereignty is about breaking free of an evil empire.
Just a gentle reminder that #Chromium, #Android, #Kubernetes and even Microsoft #DotNet are distributed under #OpenSource licenses.
Good luck at turing their evolution to an "international cooperation".
Unless #NATO is your model of such "cooperation", btw.
Kennt sich denn jemand mit den Android Browsers aus, die auf Firefox basieren und auf Datenschutz und Sicherheit getrimmt sind?
Denn ich suche eine gute Alternative zu dem FOSS Browser und ggf. dem iodéOS Browser, der auch aktuell gehalten wird.
Deshalb habe ich auch mal den Android Browser IronFox ausprobiert, der von LibreWolf als Alternative empfohlen wird, da es leider für den LibreWolf Browser auch keine Android Version gibt.
Und was ist die bessere Wahl zwischen dem FOSS Browser, iodéOS Browser und auch dem IronFox Browser in Sachen Datenschutz, Sicherheit und Aktualität?
Ich denke mal der IronFox Browser, weil er der Nachfolger von dem Mullvad Browser ist oder etwa doch nicht & an sich gefällt er mir auch schon mal besser als der FOSS Browser und den iodéOS Browser, obwohl er nicht gerade leichgewichtig ist im Vergleich zum FOSS Browser, genauso der iodéOS Browser als Schwergewicht?

a) doesn't suck
b) has a calendar widget that displays upcoming events, and
c) can sync with external sources like #Nextcloud

Here’s a quick showdown if you’re thinking of leaving proprietary Android behind:
Murena / e‑OS (Fairphone 4):
Price: €449‑€499
CPU: Snapdragon 750G (≈ 1.9 k Geekbench multi) – decent but slower
GPU: Adreno 619 (≈ 1.1 TFLOPS)
RAM/Storage: 6 / 8 GB RAM, UFS 2.1
Security: Standard verified boot, no dedicated security chip
Updates: Depends on LineageOS – often lagging behind Google’s patches
Pros: Modular, repair‑friendly, microG gives partial Play‑Services compatibility
Graphene OS on Pixal 7: (You could use any Pixal phone from the 4 up to the pixal 10 fold and Tablet)
Price: $599 (~€560)
CPU: Google Tensor G2 (≈ 3.4 k Geekbench multi) – ~2× faster than Murena
GPU: Mali‑G710 MP7 (good for everyday gaming)
RAM/Storage: 8 GB RAM, UFS 3.1
Security: Titan M2 security co‑processor + hardware‑backed keystore, verified boot, attestation
Updates: Monthly security patches, 5 years guaranteed
Pros: Strongest hardware‑rooted security on a consumer phone, pure Android stack (no Google services when using Graphene OS)
Why switch?
Better hardware trust – Titan M2 beats standard boot‑loaders.
Faster updates – stay protected without waiting for LineageOS.
Higher performance – smoother multitasking & AI tasks.
True de‑Googling – Graphene OS runs a clean, auditable Android fork.
💭 If you value privacy and solid performance, the Pixel 7 + Graphene OS is the more compelling upgrade, even at a modest price premium.

🔥 Latest issue of my curated #cybersecurity and #infosec list of resources for week #05/2026 is out!
Security keeps failing for the same boring reasons — not because we lack tools or frameworks, but because we keep externalizing risk and calling it “integration.”
This week’s mashup spans breaches, vulnerabilities, and AI security, but the connective tissue is familiar: overtrusted vendors, overprivileged access, shallow due diligence, and controls that exist on paper rather than in production. Most high-profile incidents still originate in third-party environments — MSPs, SaaS providers, data processors, support platforms — yet “vendor risk management” remains a checkbox exercise: SOC 2 PDFs, contractual assurances, and zero technical enforcement. No architectural reviews. No hard IAM boundaries. No continuous validation. Just implicit trust wired directly into core systems.
Until organizations start treating partners as hostile by default — with scoped access, verifiable controls, and ongoing monitoring — we’ll keep cycling through the same breach narratives, the same patch-now CVEs, and the same AI security surprises, week after week.
