    This should be better with /e/OS or lineageOS, but you have to jump through several hoops (and often lose your warranty) when you install them instead of your default Android OS.

    Unfortunately most devices block them completely, but the Pixel phones are supported (as far as I know).

      My gripe with non android os is that they usually don’t have access to bank apps, and those are a must

        Whenever I tested it, my banking app worked on non-rooted e/os. A rooted device however is not accepted by my banking app.

        i run rooted LinageOS 21 with the Zygisk Assistant and Play Integrity Fix modules. No app can detect i use a custom rooted rom. Google wallet and my banking apps work just fine. And i can do whatever the fuck I want with my phone since it’s rooted. For example with AdAway all ads are gone. I love it.

      How would an AOSP fork help with an app not using the notifications API correctly? Just magically rewrite the app?

        AOSP forks don’t contain the play store

        Edit: Well, some do, but I don’t recommend those

      Custom ROMs on Google Pixel don’t void your warranty and its super easy to revert back to stock ROM
