Re: Motorola announces a partnership with GrapheneOS

Hmm the one thing I'm kinda missing with grapheneos is mobile payments. The banks here in Europe used to have their own nfc apps but in my country they've all moved to Google wallet :( or Samsung pay. I don't want Google monitoring my payments so I'm using Samsung now but I'd love to have something more open for this. I was kinda hoping the partner would be Samsung so they might collaborate on a payment system too. I…

I was hoping more banks would introduce support for U2F. In Europe ING was one of the first if not the first, but so far few followed.

Hopefully wireless payment do work on these, and they have face unlock working. That's really the 2 issues I have with grapheneos. I know it's supposed to be for privacy nerd, and they will tell you you shouldn't use Google pay because it's bad for privacy and so on... But it's not the majority of people, most are willing to trade some privacy for convenience.

Here it's Google not wanting to certify GrapheneOS I think, despite their valuable contributions to the AOSP.

Motorola might be able to help here since they would be signing for their own hardware?

Will the sandboxed google play permit banking apps to work using TPM and secured credentials? Is it even possible to store secure credentials properly? I would expect whatever you initialised before grapheneOS is wiped before you can run the alternate OS. Is termux possible with a root/sudo function?

No, grapheneOS fails both DEVICE_INTEGRITY and STRONG_INTEGRITY checks.

I'm so happy about that - out of all the vendors possible. And congratulations to the future users of the OEM Motorola users - You're going to get your security patches FAST.

(not muted my the fact that apparently no one else wanted to reach the high bar for system security)

So... Graphene on a completely Lenovo (Chinese)-owned Motorola Mobility saying they focus more on security than other EU/US vendors. Bold strategy.

Many people will are reading this comment on completely Lenovo(Chinese)-owned Thinkpad laptop. If you are worried about devices made in/by Chinese then good luck. Personally i am now more worried about US corps feed my phone data to Palantir.

If anyone from Motorola reads this thread; the market is beyond ripe for a good shake up. Going full open source and pushing updates & openness, user control and freedom, you will gobble up a good chunk of market share. Make MDM easy & first class (no third parties...), and a ton of corp will roll it out too. We need you more than you think.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Motorola Mobility vs Motorola Solutions. Different companies. Different owners. Different nationalities.

Go ahead and trust them. I won't.

I would like to know what kind of phone you are using.

Curve works on GrapheneOS. I use it weekly.
