Hello, how to get app for client fdroid 0.100.1 for android 2.3?
#fdroid #old #android #question

Does an open source game from Frozenbubble or Super Tux have any types pf vulnerabilities to worry about like a web browser might or is it safe to just download it, with no worries. As long it's downloaded from safe repositories?

Can I get more info on why these are showing up? I've never seen such a thing on F-Droid before.

any info on this?

edit: I just saw there's already a post

Why use HTTP over SOCKS5? SOCKS seems much more common.

Per the GitHub readme:

This app is discontinued. The last release on Github and F-Droid will happen with the December 2024 Syncthing version. Interactions (issues, PRs) are limited now, and the entire repo will be archived after the last release. Thus all contributions are preserved for any future (re)use. The forum is still open for discussions and questions. I would kindly ask you to refrain from trying to challenge the decision or asking "why-type" questions - I wont engage with them.

The reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires even without doing much, if any, changes.

Thanks a lot to everyone who ever contributed to this app!

This is extremely disappointing news. I have been using the Syncthing-Fork version, but since it is based on this app, this may be the end for that app as well.

RMaps previously provided free satellite imagery, and any geo-location could be shared from OSMand to RMaps, to quickly show a satellite overview. (Tiles from ARCGIS IIRC)

What is the current state of satellite imagery in fdroid?

How can an OSMand location be quickly opened as a satellite view?

Edit: Extra info is, I'm looking for an offline satellite image solution. Full pre-loading of a specific areas, before travel.

With RMaps, it was possible to pre-load the tiles for the remote-location needed at various zoom-levels, before travelling a few 100kms from cell-towers, and then still being able to access an offline-satellite-view of those locations when there.

Title says it all. Running latest GrapheneOS on a Pixel 7. First couple attempts I got the usual application isn't responding, force close or wait pop-up message. Now I don't get anything, it looks like the application tries to launch, get a 1 second black screen and back to home screen, no apparent crash pop-up message anymore.

It is the latest alpha build from September 30 if I'm not mistaken. Anyone else getting this as well?

I wanted to check for updates today (automatic updates disabled because I ain't need no modern bells and whistles that you modern folks use) and I noticed that the syncing was taking longer than usual. I pulled the notifications panel and discovered that the notification was saying "0 / -1 b" or "-1 / -1 b" (I'm using Droid-ify which shows more verbose progress in the notification) and it didn't change over time. I removed the repo that was failing to sync but it didn't change anything. Is there any way to fix it?

EDIT: it just started working as it did before. I guess it could be some kind of an outage in all the repos at the same time.

Hello @fdroid

are there any infos about #fennec ? No updates since August? 😨 There are zerodays out there since that.

Normally when looking at an app on F-Droid you'll see the multiple repos available to download it from all on the app's page. Whether it's Izzy, F-Droid, etc. Why does Organic Maps have two seperate app pages on F-Droid? One only lists the F-Droid repo download and the other just for Izzy.

I've using FDroid for some time now, but now it says "it was developed for an older Android version (I'm on 14) and can't update automatically" I read that FDroid Basic was recommended for newer phones, so I installed and copied my repos (still have both apps) but it doesn't recognize my installed apps. Am I missing something?

Google Play má problém, když se v mobilu používá ještě jiný repozitář s aplikacemi (např. @fdroid). Pokud jsem přes F-Droid nainstaloval aplikaci a stejná existuje v GPlay, tak si ji GPlay nedokáže aktualizovat. Což by ani tak nevadilo, počkám na update v F-Droidu. Horší je, že ten nepovedený update zablokuje update všech ostatních aplikací, které mám přes GPlay.
Takže dokud nepřijde na F-Droidu update AntennaPodu, nemůžu updatovat ani nic dalšího.

F-Droid Build Status was updated to 5.6.4 and no one will get this update. Why? Well, the app is now built reproducibly so if you have it installed you need to uninstall it and then reinstall it. (Yes, we wish this switch to be easier to perform, but the UI is not there yet)

as title. Thanks

With it not bring on IzzyOnDroid where can i get it that isnt the google shit store but still safe? Do they have a github or something?

Edit: legit? https://github.com/ProtonMail

I'd like to use this app and looks fine.

Concerns are:

1. Is this app still open source ?
2. How to verify any backdoor / sending my data to a remote location.

I think the app is good and gonna purchase it, but I need to confirm the above.

Thanks,

Apps that I know:

• For images - Pocketpaint, Freepaint
  Fossify Gallery has a basic editor with draw, crop and filters. Tux paint is also nice to draw stuff.
• For video
  • Video transcoder allows basic cutting of audio n video.
  • Saw an app called Bunny media editor, that allowed basic image and video cropping and cutting.
  • I've also heard that some people use Termux for it

Are there other apps like these?
Which all apps do you use to edit images/videos and make memes etc?

as title, keymapper require root so I looking for something that disable mobile Dara quickly for battery save.

One that use the camera to give an approximate distance between two objects?

Tape measure has some features, but needs a known reference object in the same plane. And most of the predefined objects are not common where I live. It does have an option to define custom reference objects.

But are there any apps that do not need a reference object?

Thanks in advance.

F-Droid core

It’s no secret that F-Droid continues to live and thrive thanks in part to you, the users that donate, but also in part thanks to different grants we’ve received along these 14 years of existence. Our recent post covered the endangered NGI program and its importance.

The Guardian Project has been a long time supporter of F-Droid, pouring in not only grant money but also human resources. They are now looking for a part-time Grant Administrator so if you find the list of their achievements tempting and your skills match the bullet points, don’t be shy and get in contact. Who knows, maybe you can be featured here next. 😛

Back in May we’ve highlighted the work contributors around F-Droid have done in order to shine a light onto the app downloads stats. The Divested (thanks!) hosted page just got an update, covering the weeks since then: https://divestos.org/pages/fdroid_stats

/PS: if you are involved with the project(s) that download Termux packages 300.000 times per week, two advices: first, do get in contact with us because we’re curious about your work, and second please try to setup a round robin script of sorts that downloads from mirrors instead since we have plenty of those and it’s not in anyone’s benefit that you download 25-30Tb of data from our servers each and every week. 😐
