Seriously?
Thank you for quick reply! All good, not a big deal. No keyboard apps used; just what it comes with. Pixel 6a. Best š
#GrapheneOS version 2024102400 is out. It brings back the a stricter DNS leak block that was previously reverted due to it breaking a lot of popular VPN apps (notably Proton VPN). An additional fix was made for the VPN DNS routing to prevent the compatibility issues from before. The ancient Android bug to do with widgets in secondary users disappearing have also been fixed by us.
IMPORTANT NOTICE that only affects a small amount of users: Apps which were only installed in secondary users but not Owner before updating to Android 15 and which were then installed in Owner after updating to Android 15 will have a one-time revocation of their Network/Sensors permissions after updating to this release as a minor consequence of migrating them from Android 14 again. If you installed an app, check those permissions!
Changes since the 2024102100 release:
- switch back our original stricter approach to DNS leak blocking from ourĀ [2024050900](https://grapheneos.org/releases#2024050900)Ā release with an additional fix for an Android DNS routing bug causing requests to the VPN DNS servers to be routed incorrectly, which should avoid the compatibility issues experienced with certain VPN apps when we tried to ship it before
- avoid resetting Network or Sensors back to the global default after app updates in a specific case when migrating the state from Android 14 or earlier
- add an extra one-time migration of Network and Sensors being disabled in Android 14 to Android 15 to work around an issue with the previous migration of the permission state which occurred for some users with some of their apps
- fix ancient Android bug causing widgets to disappear from the user's home screen when the user stops, which was a major usability issue for secondary users
- Keyboard: extend fix for upstream layout bug in landscape mode to fully fix it for 3-button navigation in addition to the default gesture navigation
- Gallery: fix upstream cropping activity bug when both the input and output URI is the same to fix setting profile pictures for user profiles
- raise backup service transport (Seedvault) timeout from 10 minutes / 5 minutes to 60 minutes / 30 minutes to handle very large backups, particularly for the device-to-device mode which includes nearly all app data
- temporarily revert enforcing minimum 64kiB stack guard size for arm64 since Facebook recently included a buggy stack overflow check for the React Native Hermes runtime that's incompatible with larger gap sizes and beginning to be shipped by apps (revert was not applied for Android 15 port)
- Sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer: add stubs for update_engine wrapper API to avoid potential Play services crashes if the existing approaches to disable the update service fail
- Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 8a: disable Wi-Fi HAL debug logging to avoid memory corruption caught by hardware memory tagging on GrapheneOS
- kernel (6.1): update to latest GKI LTS branch revision
- use hardened GrapheneOS 6.6 LTS kernel for microdroid virtual machines for both arm64 and x86_64
- Vanadium: update toĀ version 130.0.6723.73.0
- GmsCompatConfig: update toĀ version 145
I noticed something with this update, but not certain it wasn't present before. When I switch to a user with an alphanumeric password, the keyboard and password entry field are displayed as normal. If I immediately type the password and hit enter, it often indicates wrong password. But if I first tap in the entry field, then type password and enter, all is good. Not a big deal, but concerning initially because seems to continue indicating wrong password until tapping in entry field. Thank you for all you do! š

Is it possible to donate using lightning bitcoin?
Have faith. The universe thirsts for intelligence & beauty such as you & yours
Very glad to hear this! My internet search was coming up with other crypto wallets. Thank you for the github link, and sorry for not seeing that in your profile; should have looked there first.
Is this a "crypto" wallet, or bitcoin only? If the former, I'll pass. The closest I'll get is liquid tether in Aqua
Hashes are good, but ultimately public/private key cryptography is needed in some form to ensure trust minimized to just signer/dev (holder of private key)
No, sorry. For now I use laptop, but plan to explore https://termux.dev when I have time
Thank you so much for all you do for us and bitcoin! I haven't yet bought one of these little miners, but am very much considering doing so. I'm probably more of the efficiency type than the esthetics type, so BitAxe may be for me. Being able to upgrade the asic board in an esthetically pleasing piece of hardware would be very appealing!
I hold liquid bitcoin with the Blockstream Green wallet and a Jade signer to keep the keys cold. I move liquid bitcoin to and from this cold wallet to maintain a spending balance in the Aqua hot wallet. Cold liquid bitcoin balance maintained by creating/destroying mainchain utxos as needed with boltz.
Personally, I practice coin control on the main chain, but with confidential amounts and assets on liquid, I'm comfortable just letting the wallet software handle it. Just my 2 sats š
In the latest Elements release, we add initial support for discounted Confidential Transactions (CT) fees. This new policy reduces fees by nearly 90%, from around 250 sats to 25 sats, achieving close to what it would be on non-CT transactions.
The 23.2.3 release activates the new fee policy for relay on Liquid testnet. This allows Liquid wallets and platforms to begin integration and testing, with a production release expected in the near future.
The new fee policy will make Liquidās confidentiality even more economical, particularly when stacking bitcoin in high-fee environments, swapping to Lightning, or sending cross-border stablecoin remittances.

I've been seeing these discounted fees in Aqua (thank you!), but not yet in Green. Can anyone explain why? Are Aqua transactions still confidential?
