This is such a rarity to see in today's world. I'm glad GrapheneOS is getting the support it needs. I wish that happened more often.

I was wondering what was wrong with my phone, i thought a reboot would fix it and forget to do it everytime.

The lags are actually quite unpleasant and noticable, i wonder how it wasn't caught before the release.

Usually I am the one making fun of people who have been claiming that "the new update made everything buggy and slow and reduced battery life" with every update for the past 15 years, but this time this one's actually real and hitting my base Pixel 8 hard. Hopefully the October update fixes it.

I'll be interested to see if downstreams of AOSP ultimately weaponize updates against Google. For the kernel that's a minefield but Google made plenty of stuff Apache/MIT to keep its options open..

I'm so glad GrapheneOS is willing and able to pick up the pieces and polish Android into a usable product as Google continues to drive its clunker into the ground. The only question is if GOS can rescue Android before Google sends it off a cliff.

Why wont GOS contribute this to upstream?

I love you, GrapheneOS. XOXOX

In the meanwhile you can try this temporary fix: Go to Developer Options->Apps>Background Process Limit and change the limit from Standard to "at most 4processes" [1]

I want GOS to succeed; I'm afraid their exceptional technical and developmental skills could be made mostly ineffective by their foot-gun conduct. Fanboys urging them on or defending everything they do are driving them toward a cliff.

GOS can just talk about the upside, their solution to this problem. That's great work. But they often choose to denigrate others, which is destructive, damages relationships (the most essential assets - especially when you have no money to offer!), and is myopic: GOS's sh-t stinks too; they f- things up too. Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who tresspass against us.

It seems especially dangerous being entirely dependant on Google's goodwill; Google has zero need for GOS. I'd think Motorola, who now has money and reputation depending on GOS's success, would tell GOS to zip it. If I were in that industry and looking to partner, I might love GOS's technology but their behavior would be hard to overcome. For example, I love OpenBSD, but who partners with them? And OpenBSD isn't dependant on someone else.

Just zip it, be professional, focus on what you are doing and not on others. Great job on this fix!
