I wanted to know the difference between the default apps from stock Android and OxygenOS
I don't really use the phone that has OxygenOS

When I first bought my Pixel, I believe the camera apk was different from the stock google camera that came on other android devices.
I recently flashed an 8.1 rom (Resurrection remix) and was wondering, are the two APKs still different or has google's stock now moved to using the newer APK? I noticed the google APK now has the Auto HDR mode that my Pixel's old stock camera used to have back when it was on Android 7.
If they're still different, how do they compare? I'm trying to figure out if it's necessary for me to find and flash the pixel apk at this time
Hi, I tried custom ROMs to get rid of Google service (and use MicroG) but I miss OxygenOS and every ROMs have bugs (or drain battery super fast).
Is there a OxygenOS version without GApps ?
I've heard of "GSI" images, I don't know how to deal with that, thx for helping.
It's called HydrogenOS, it's official and can be downloaded here:

I currently own a Pixel 3a and it's on the latest Android 10 security update, I would like to install a custom rom onto it but since TWRP doesn't support Q I'm wondering if I flashed the 3a with a Pie image and then installed TWRP, would I then be able to use Android 10 custom roms.
Also if anyone could recommend any roms that offer similar features without the massive System size (live captioning, google camera, hold power for gpay) that would be great!

Nope you'll be stuck using Android 9 Roms. Total waste of time is what it is
So I would like to degoogle OnePlus Nord as much as possible. However, I don't want to install a custom Rom like lineage OS. I want to keep OxygenOS and just strip it from Google as much as possible. I have seen that there exists something called MicroG where I would be able to install apps from the Play Store without the Play Store itself.
I am basically wondering the following:
What steps can I take to degoogle OnePlus Nord OxygenOS?
And what would be left that can't be degoogled?
Your help would be highly appreciated
Yeah, that's what I've been considering for a while now. Flashing microG suite and disabling Google Services seems to be a natural first step. I don't know if it's possible without root, need to do some more research.
Looking to install unofficial lineage 17.1 and was wondering if I just don't install gaps, can I then proceed to install non google apps as needed? Or would I have to install AOSP without gaps? I want to try this on my OnePlus X. Are there gap alternative packages already for custom roms?
Will you lose DRM keys if you flash lineage? If yes, that'd be a deal-breaker for me on my main phone...
Have this older Samsung Galaxy J3 Orbit SM-S357BL phone. Sure it's a cheap phone but I really like it and wanted to replace samsungs bloatware with a stock android os. Is this even possible and how would I go about doing this? Tried watching YouTube videos but they're just too confusing with loud rap music playing over the videos. Thanks.

Installing stock software won't change anything, it will still have all the Samsung bloatware. Flashing stock software might get rid of bloatware from your carrier such as the Verizon based apps that are installed on Verizon's devices and other carrier based services and apps.
If you want something that is a little more lean and stripped down, that can only be done by flashing modified stock ROMs or true custom ROMs, but that requires an unlocked bootloader, custom recovery and/or root.

OK, where would I find a modified stock rom or a leaner custom rom? I guess Lineage os 16 was made for android 9 pie but can't seem to find a download for it.

Yeah, is there a custom rom that is more stripped down than Lineage or is that the best option?

You can't use any kind of custom ROM, you can only use stock ROMs based on your stock firmware that someone has modified and only if a modified stock ROM exists for your specific device model. I don't know if any exist for your device or if there is a working method to install them on your device. You'll have to research that yourself, I'm just telling you what you can and can not use so that you don't go looking for the wrong thing.
