A thankyou to the help I’ve received here.

Phone looks and feels great.

Wallpaper (I’m pretty sure) is by Jubilee / 8Pxl

    Can you use banking apps? And can you do auth type apps for logging in to email or computers?

      It’s android. Not all bank apps are created the same. Some require Google Play services, which Lineage can be installed with or without.

      I’m not sure what you mean by auth-type apps. If you’re inquiring aboot password managers, Bitwarden doesn’t require Google services.

        I mean 2 factor authentication apps…you try to open a doc from teams like a Normal human bean, and out pops a window asking for a number to prove you are you. Suddenly your phone vibrates and gives you the number.

          That sounds like its sent via SMS.

          There are other auth apps such as Aegis on f-droid. No idea what Teams supports though.

              The Microsoft stuff supports both TOTP (6 digit auth app number) and they also have their own annoying Microsoft outlook 2fa garbage that gets sent to you through the outlook app.

              If you install need to install the Microsoft apps, I believe they’d require the Play store. I didn’t have any luck installing through the Aurora store. On Android you can utilize the work profile, which I find sufficient for the Microsoft trash.

          Generally 2FA apps work. If it’s a specific 2FA app, it might or might not work. For example, Google Authenticator shouldn’t work because it’s tied with their play services, Microslop Authenticator might be working for now but they plan to break it, Okta works, regular opensource onces (like Aegis) work without any problems.

      My phone is as Degoogled as I could get it with Lineage, & I don’t use any banking apps on mobile, so I can’t give too much info there. For 2 factor Auth Apps, I use the Proton one and it works a treat!

      Edit: Blerg!!! I have been having issues with the Proton Authenticator, You need Gapps or MicroG to get it to work properly.

      Edit 2: Aegis works
