So this is what it looks like when Google prioritizes a fix. Neat!
Google from the article:
Thanks for sticking with us. Our team is looking into this storage issue affecting some Pixel devices running Android 14 and we’re working hard on a fix. We’ll update this thread with more details soon.
Use GrapheneOS. It never has this bug to begin with, as the team found and fixed it while porting the OS to Android 14. https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/111309676504712576
GrapheneOS also has many other significant privacy and security improvements compared to the stock OS, it’s definitely worth checking out.
They said that, but I couldn’t find the fix in their github repository. Does anyone know the commit that fixes this bug? It would help shed light on the technical details of the issue.
Do banking apps work there?
There’s a list of apps that work and those that don’t work. Most banking apps should work though as the GrapheneOS passes Google SafetyNet checks.
The repos issue tracker is slightly more up to date.
There are some banking apps and apps in general that may be problematic. For such cases, here are the possible work around solutions.
