@GrapheneOS then what is it if it’s not a partition? It does exist on the pixel 6a/bluejay, and you can flash pkmd.bin files to it. Whenever you do so, or do it incorrectly, etc, fastboot calls it a partition. I guess I must be missing a lot of information somewhere, but all the same, would love to see GrapheneOS develop further and be properly allowed to pass play integrity API.

@GrapheneOS yes, I’m aware of the security and outdated releases of DivestOS. I was simply using it to make relations to what I was saying. They are severely outdated, only having A13 for bluejay.
I would like to request a bit more customization options though, such as fonts or icons designs etc. maybe have a look at EvoX if you really really want to get into the specifics?
I was simply wondering why GrapheneOS didn’t provide a ***pkmd.bin file as well, unlike DivestOS does. It seems to be a more efficient way to get it into the system for verification properly instead of other methods I’ve seen. Maybe there’s something done differently?
@GrapheneOS may I ask if Play Integrity is working properly yet? (Mainly for things like banking apps)
If not, since this has been brought up, Google should be held liable for holding a monopoly over Android competition.
Want GMS? Gotta go through Google (as a company only) enter a license agreement (contract) and then still not be fully allowed to do what you wanted in the first place.
Don’t pass strong integrity? No apps like Step banking work.
Want to make your own ROM? Can’t have GMS unless you do as I said above.
Wanna use Google specific features of absolutely any kind? GMS needed.
I would specifically like to request that GrapheneOS do what DivestOS does, and provide a flashable pkmd/bin avb key to be flashed to the avb_custom_key partition to the devices that support it. An example would be the Pixel 6a
@GrapheneOS ah, got it. I see, like everything else since you don’t seem to provide direct downloads you just have it all flashed at one time through the web interface (or whatever is being used). Right?
