Yes, it’s like @jc2e wrote.
I’ll keep trying “INKredible” and “HandWrite” - but not on /e/ OS e-0.7-nougat, but on a brand new AOSP Android 10 based custom ROM from an experienced maintainer who also created ROMs for the N9005 in the past.
It comes without GApps, without microG - but supports signature spoofing and so the system can be configured with microG components (GmsCore, GsfProxy, UnifiedNlp, mapsv1).
Optionally the installation of GApps and Magisk is also possible, but not interesting for me. It offers a lot of functions - almost too much to get started with Android 10.
But it comes with only 10 pre-installed apps (browser, file manager, settings, camera, contacts, SMS/MMS, phone, clock).
First, “Private DNS” is activated with the data of a “Private DNS provider hostname”.
Everything else will show the time …
