That’s what I’ve been experiencing too.


Unfortunate. I’ll have to give Spotube another go then!


So it’s not possible to access my Spotify library on it then?


FOSS Spotify client that isn’t Spotube?
Y'all know of any other FOSS clients for Spotify other than Spotube? It's rather slow for me the times I've used it, so here I am asking for alternatives. Would be using it on my Android phone. Cheers!

I currently only use Vanadium, but maybe I should install FF after all.


Difficulties pasting image links
Hi y'all. Disclaimer I'm 1) running GrapheneOS, 2) returning go Android after many years of using iPhone. Maybe I'm stupid, but I find it way harder to paste image links (inserting the image) on Android than iPhone. I find an image on the web, press it and select "Share" then "Copy image with link". Except the link won't appear. It does not exist in my clipboard. Weirdly enough, I _can_ paste it in this post and Voyager will automatically convert it to an image. I think I'm stupid because this shouldn't be hard. I insert images using urls all the time to avoid downloading a bunch of files. Is it an issue with Vanadium? The OS? Me? Point me in the right direction.

Problem still persists.

Added both the English and Swedish dictionary to the respective languages in Heliboard. I’m using GrapheneOS so maybe I can’t find the proper setting in settings.


Lol. And thank you for the advice! I’ll try this out asap.


Well, I do want the spell checker, problem is it’s marking words that are correctly spelled.


Why does Heliboard mark text as red in other languages?
It frequently marks the text as red in my native language but never in English (unless there is a real error in the text). Anybody know why? See image below... ![](https://midwest.social/pictrs/image/70237f39-b1dd-49a4-9e11-227c32921e71.png)

That makes total sense, now I get it. So all in all, it’s more secure to have separate apps doing the job instead of jamming it all into an ecosystem?


You mean switching from iPhone to GOS? I can return to your comment after a while of using GOS to update you on my experience.



I think I might be using the wrong terminology, forgive me. What I mean is, in my case, why does the PDF have to open in PDF reader instead of directly in the browser (like on iPhone)? That’s what I mean when I say “opening things externally.”


How come Android doesn’t have a built in PDF viewer?
Forgive me for this stupid question. I just transitioned from iPhone to Pixel (GrapheneOS) and I'm curious why there isn't a built in PDF viewer like on iPhone? It feels like you have to open things externally pretty often, but I figure there's a reason for that. I haven't used Android in many years and I recently developed an interest for the technical aspects of things, so again, do forgive this beginners question. Cheers y'all!

Hello! I clicked on the second link you sent but when I click “Install Samsung USB Drivers” there are no links available to download. I also can’t seem to extract the Odin files. I’m really lost since I haven’t done this before and I tried looking elsewhere but it seems like really complex processes. Any other links you can direct me to?


Been letting it run for more than 24 hours. (‘: I will look up guides on how to reinstall the stock ROM. I have no idea if there are any custom ROMs that support this device, but I hope so since I want to try out installing a custom one.


I’ll try out this suggestion! I haven’t done this before so I’m a bit unsure what guides are the best, but I’m sure I’ll find something. Thank you for helping!


I just found my first phone ever and decided to start it up. I found out the password and decided to factory reset it since I’m planning on selling it. However, ever since I resetted it, it has been stuck on the same “Installing applications” screen (see image). I tried the volume up+power button+home button tactic and chose factory reset and then boot system, but it won’t budge. Anybody know how to solve this?
