Changes in version 114.0.5735.196.0:

  • update to Chromium 114.0.5735.196

A full list of changes from the previous release (version 114.0.5735.131.0) is available through the Git commit log between the releases.

This update is available to GrapheneOS users via our app repository and will also be bundled into the next OS release. Vanadium isn't yet officially available for users outside GrapheneOS, although we plan to do that eventually. It won't be able to provide the WebView outside GrapheneOS and will have missing hardening and other features.

We've almost finished adding support for the Pixel Fold but we don't have access to one yet since they weren't sold outside of a few countries.

Does anyone have one that's able to spend a few hours testing different things? You need to be able to run ADB on an attached computer.

If you want to help with this, please join #testing:grapheneos.org on Matrix. Support for the Pixel Fold will come soon but we don't have access to the device ourselves yet and are missing testers as a substitute for that. We can likely finish adding support quickly.

Thank you

The Pixel Tablet running GrapheneOS works with the Charging Speaker Dock as both a charger and a speaker. Smart display features in the stock OS that are activated by docking require privileged Play services integration and likely won't be available via sandboxed Google Play.

See https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/110581224175074513 for our previous post about launching support for the Pixel Tablet. We had it supported within around 12 hours of the official launch. Pixel Fold may take significantly more work to support since it's a new form factor and there may be issues in AOSP

Initial GrapheneOS support for the Pixel Tablet is now available. It can be installed via our web installer (https://grapheneos.org/install/web) or the official CLI install procedure. The basics are confirmed to work properly already and we're currently working on our first update for it.
