@Gargron Even the term "Side loading", makes it sound non-standard and risky. Which of course, it's not.

Hey there, nerdbrains,

I cant remember how I did this the last time I set up a phone two years ago...

I'm trying to install Google/Pixel camera on my #Pixel 7 running #AOSP-based #Iodé, but #AuroraStore says it's not compatible with my device.

I'd preferably like to get the old version I was running before, 9.0.115.586536401.40 (before they ruined the UI).

Does anyone know where I can get a working APK for my device?

I downloaded "com.google.android.GoogleCamera_9.0.115.586536401.40-66739056_18feat_0d88f0ed679ba77732b303a399904412_apkmirror.com.apkm" from #APKMirror, but it just crashes.

Any ideas?

#CalyxOS releases and security updates will be paused for 4-6 months due to retooling, personnel departures and the recent changes to #AOSP. They've released a "letter to the community" here.

I'm debating on whether to move to GrapheneOS or, since their social media team attacked and "banned" me, and accused me of being some kind of spy because I mentioned CalyxOS in a comment, I may just use regular #Android and lock it down the best I can.
