|

||||
* find out if there is TWRP for device code: https://twrp.me/Devices/ |
||||
* find out if there is a custom rom for device code: https://download.lineage.microg.org/ |
||||
|
||||
## Risks |
||||
|
||||
Liberating your device from google voids the warranty. |
||||
|
||||
If it fails and your backup does not work correctly, you risk that contacts or |
||||
data are not available anymore. |
||||
|
||||
If you have to use unofficial LineageOS or TWRP builds, because the device is |
||||
not supported, the installation can fail. Then you'll have to flash the stock |
||||
rom, and restore the backup. It's a nasty effort. |
||||
|
||||
If you have to flash the stock rom, you can only login and use the phone, when |
||||
you log into a Google account, that already was logged into the phone before |
||||
you flashed it. Be wary if you bought the phone second hand/online. |
||||
|
||||
## Step By Step |
||||
|
||||
### Back up data before flashing |
||||
|
||||
* install F-Droid |
||||
* install DAVDroid |
||||
* create ownCloud account |
||||
* backup telegram accounts |
||||
* backup files to ownCloud |
||||
* sync Contacts to ownCloud |
||||
* full backup: https://www.maketecheasier.com/back-up-android-data-adb-ubuntu/ |
||||
|
||||
### Install Firmware |
||||
|
||||
* install TWRP https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/ |
||||
* install lineageOS with microG https://lineage.microg.org/#instructions |
||||
* if not possible, install normal lineageOS and enable signature spoofing |
||||
|
||||
### Secure Phone |
||||
|
||||
* Encrypt phone |
||||
* Install F-Droid from their website: https://f-droid.org/ |
||||
* Install cryptfs |
||||
* if necessary, root the device with magisk |
||||
* wrong pin shutdown |
||||
|
||||
### Install apps |
||||
|
||||
On F-Droid, you can get open source apps for almost any purpose. |
||||
If you need Google Play Store apps, you can install them via the Aurora store. |
||||
You can install the Aurora Store on F-Droid, too. |
||||
|
||||
Some recommendations: |
||||
|
||||
* DAVdroid: sync Contacts & Calendar with ownCloud |
||||
* Firefox Klar: private browser |
||||
* Maps: offline maps with https://openstreetmap.org |
||||
* Offi Stations: public transport connections. Different networks are available |
||||
* Briar: End-to-End encrypted serverless Messenger |
||||
* Conversations: End-to-End encrypted XMPP Messenger |
||||
* DeltaChat: End-to-End encrypted E-Mail Messenger |
||||
* ownCloud: store your data in a private cloud. Ask [[mailto:tech@lists.links-tech.org|tech@lists.links-tech.org]] for an account |
||||
|
||||
And if you really want proprietary shit software on your device: |
||||
|
||||
* setup Whatsapp with island https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/closed-beta-test-incoming-companion-app-t3366295 |
||||
* install FB messenger with island |
||||
