Well, I suppose it’s OK to write bit Finnish here too, but I will give a link to English blog post.
Sanoisin että jos ei halua “kikkailla” noiden juttujen kanssa, kannattaa jokin tovi käyttää kakkospuhelimella pankki juttuja. Vuosi 2021 tuo mukana uudistuksia joiden myötä toivottavasti myös pankkisovellukset alkavat toimimaan ilman kikkailua… Siitä lisää tuolla (SafetyNet osuus):
This article was intially posted on Gaël Duval’s blog on April 29th, 2021. [1 5deTxryIBV3Uv6_KDFyWzg] Credit: unknown In the first part of this article, we explained that /e/ has a primary focus on user’s data privacy, circular economy and energy, and that it is fully inline with the global trend seeking to reduce the negative impact of tech in general and helping creating a new paradigm to build a better world. Do you want to know more about what we are going to do with the /e/OS user inte…
Hello, is there any safety issues by doing these operations with ROM and Magiskdisk as described? Will the encryption of dataflow be granted?
If we want to spread E OS usage, we need to provide the right solutions to all daily usage apps (as banking unfortunately) otherwise we must use Groooogle phone as complementary. I hope we can fix it asap. Thanks
It’s been a while since I tuned into this thread but I wanted to point out something: Check if you can upgrade your android version of /e/. I’m on a OnePlus 5T and on Oreo my Barclays app protested about root access but since switching to Pie it works flawlessly, obviously thats just my experience on my device between those mentioned versions, but generally worth a shot
I installed /e/ Q unofficial. My banking app didnt work and then i went to /e/ pie Official.
But still it doesnt work. It says device is rooted. Though device is not rooted. Maybe it is because boot loader is unlocked.
Can someone please share experience running Revolut, Paysera, Wise and eventually Monzo + HSBC UK apps?
I tested the Aurora store in BlueStack and to my utter surprise it installs successfully all the apps and I managed to initiate them without issues (I haven’t tried to login though cause for some of them this means device migration). There is no guarantee, of course, it will be the same on a Murena phone as Aurora store fetches apps based on the model of the device. If Play Store does not recognize it for whatever reason…bye bye banking.
Why do I say utter surprise - Revolut was crashing when I installed via Play Store in BlueStacks. Somehow it was detecting this is an emulator underneath.
The Bunq app on Android uses way too many trackers and permissions. More than double that of other Dutch bank apps, like the one from ABN Amro. The Triodos Bank is very respectful of privacy, as it uses only one or two trackers.
(The Exodus privacy search is an eye-opener. Its ratings are integrated into the /e/ Apps store. I would recommend to check each new app on that platform before using it, when downloading from another store.)
Why is your bootloader still unlocked? The instruction I got when flashing /e/ is to lock the bootloader once I’m finished flashing… It’s unsafe to leave it open, if you’re not very technical.
I was not aware that there is a way to lock the bootloader again after installing /e/ on a onePlus 5t. Afaik only certain phones allow that functionality such as the pixel range or the fairphones due to restrictions put into place by the phone manufacturers. But if you know how to do it, please do tell me, I’d be keen to know.
Sorry if this is coming late, but when I had tried it Monzo worked completely fine. Same with the halifax, Barclays, Wise, N26 and Starling (Barlcays app said my phone was rooted on the android 8 version of /e/ but its been working perfectly since android 9).
With all the banking apps you’ll most likely have to download, install and update with aurora though since the /e/ store is missing many of them. In the netherlands I tried ABN amro as well which also works fine with one single caveat: In the bank account registration process a selfie had to be taken and that seemed to rely on some missing library. Had to borrow someones phone to register for my account to just get past that specific step, but after registration everything worked perfectly.
Generally the only app I have had issues with was the NHS app. But using the nhs covid pass service lets you get a qr code which i saved within my greenPass app
Yeah that makes sense. You are referring to the documentation for the Fairphone 4, which is one of the few devices which allows re-locking the bootloader. To my knowledge the OnePlus 5t does not allow re-locking the bootloader. I brought this up a few times in other topics and it looks like the blocking factor for locking bootloaders lies with the device manufacturer. AFAIK attempting to lock the bootloader of a device that does not allow you to do so can “softbrick” your device, so @Zeno make sure to look into it properly before attempting to relock the bootloader and only follow the instructions for your specific device.
Okay, sorry if I almost got people to softbrick their device, that was not my intention at all! I am surprised to hear that most devices don’t let you re-lock the bootloader, as this is a serious sexurity vulnerability. Glad I have a Fairphone!
