Custom ROMs have had just about enough of being Android's second-class citizens

TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

Do you pass play integrity?

Do you pass play integrity?

GrapheneOS, and other non-OEM OSes, do not. It's kinda the whole point of the article/OP I linked.

Have you tried playintegrity fix?

Nope, nor do I intend to. GrapheneOS frowns upon rooting and modifying the system as it typically widens your attack surface. I'm not using a secure OS then going around to purposefully make it less secure.
