It doesn't run anything from google. I run lineage os.

You could make the point that the service companies know where you ate all the time but that doesn't have anything to do with audio that I know of.

I run lineage os

Good for you, never mind then. However, most people run preinstalled OS, so I just assumed you also would.

Honestly if you are thinking about your phone listening to you then you probably should look into running something other than stock. (You are not most people)

Good point. How complicated is it to install lineage OS on a Fairphone while also keeping/transferring my contacts?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It depends. What I would do if you are interested is buy a cheap damaged phone that is still usable and then flash it with Lineage. From there you can break things without causing issues on your main device.

Interesting, thank you!

you should be able to import/export contacts to a file, on most systems i think. also check if theyre stored on the SIM card itself, or in your phone.

I thought lineage os still uses google for stuff like push notifications? It just doesn't use the "Google apps" by default

You can choose to install gapps or not.

It does not. It is fairly close to AOSP with a few improvements to the stock system.
