At least they got rid of the horribly designed all-in-one internet toggle, but this is still a pointless extra click. I have limited mobile data and disabling it helps with battery life. Stop being so pushy, Google!

    Anyone on Android 13 (near stock) who can confirm whether this is a vendor-specific thing?

    This would become really annoying very quickly IMO

        Thanks for checking - I’m on an FP3/Android 10 at the moment and eyeing moving to LineageOS because of the whole google fingerprint sensor downgrade issue.

        Since you’re on Lineage already, any major/minor complaints about the experience in LOS 20?

        I’m kinda curious as to whether apps like Nebula will work… currently OK on my rooted device with no magisk hiding necessary, but on LOS i’m not sure if proprietary google bits like widevine will be missing etc.

          I only got my FP4 a couple of weeks back and have not had time to play around with it that much, I had an LG G6 before that and it decided to break so I needed something quickly.

          My biggest issue is that it seems that the FP4 camera is not supported that well in LOS. The best I seem to get is OpenCamera, where I can take 4000x3000 12MP photos, everything else seems to only take lower resolution pictures. The phone is supposed to have a 48MP camera. From what I’ve read though it seems the original software is a bit hacked together to acutally get 48MP out of the sensor… I have to admin I cannot compare to the original software, as the first thing I did when I got the phone was unlock the bootloader and install LOS.

          As for the google bits, I tried very shortly without it, but quickly noticed google services are needed for many things so I just installed them by installing MindTheGapps. I haven’t tried Netflix or Nebula though, so I don’t know if widevine is working, and I do not have root.

      I’m on Android 13, on a Pixel 7 Pro, and I haven’t seen this at all. I still have the combined internet toggle, for mobile data and wifi.

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        On LineageOS 20 (android 13) I have the option of both the combined and the separate toggles, maybe you can configure it on your Pixel too?

          I did go looking when I first got the phone (was a Samsung user for ~10 years before this) but I couldn’t find anything immediately obvious.

          Honestly, I’m not as annoyed by it as I was when I first got the phone. I have Tasker managing my connectivity 99% of the time, so I rarely have to use this toggle.
