minus-squareunexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoI see. What phone do you have currently? LineageOS for example has support for a huge list of devices. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ There is also a version of Lineage that comes with microG preinstalled and it supports all the same devices. https://lineage.microg.org/ Installing a custom OS isnt super hard but if you arent familiar with using a terminal and such it might be a bit daunting of a project.

minus-squaresoftotteep@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoBrevent looks to me like an app to help you force stop other apps. How did you use it to run adb commands?
