Best way to install sandboxed gapps only for selected apps in c/degoogle@lemmy.ml

Whan I installed messenger on my non-work profile, it kept crashing. On the work profile with microG it works. I think it still at least limits the access

Update: I ended up going with microG. You can install the apps from f-droid and with insular/shelter copy them to a work profile. It seems that apps outside of the work profile can't acces these services.

Edit: do NOT install them to non-work profile and then clone them. Instead, they must be installed directly in work profile. My way of doing this was to clone fdroid and install the microG from (work profile) fdroid. If you were to install them to non-work profile, clone them and uninstall the original, your (or at least mine did) phone will be stuck on "phone is starting" after reboot.

That is a great rundown, thanks! How would I install them on a different custom rom? Upon installing their "apps" store, i can't see the google play services (this might be because I'm currently on stock)

Hi! What would be the best way to limit play serbices to only selected apps. I still need notifications to work from them, but would like to be sure that google can't access anything else

Is the difference between OLED and LCD models really that big? (slrpnk.net)
 

I keep hearing that the OLED version is much better not only screenwise, but also the overall experience. Is it wort paying double the price (second handed)?

There is a way to play it. And it works very well.

Switch emulator

You might see where I'm going with this. Now, I don't know if there are any for iPads, but you can download some for Android. Personally I use SuYu.

Switch rom

You will need a .nsp file of the game + .nsp file of any updates you want to include. You can get this file from your nintendo switch (or you know, the high seas) and then import it to the emulator. For me, it runs at about 15 fps on a 4 year old Samsung phone (no Snapdragon), which is playable.

The game registers screen taps very well and you won't have any problem with playing it.

Samsung GameOptimizingService keeps getting installed back in c/degoogle@lemmy.ml

Yeah it seems like an app responsible for making the device obsolete. Anyway, I disabled the app, will see how well it will work. (Or when it will enable itself).

Thanks

When I uninstall GameOptimizingService using Canta with Shizuku, it gets installed back immediately. I get a notification from TrackerControl that a new app was installed, but it is deleted almost immediately by itself. Is there a way to uninstall this app forever? I really hate whatever they are doing.
