I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they’re on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can’t be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?
Edit 2: I bought my Pixel 6 phone outright, directly from Google’s Australian store. I have no creditors.
Were the courts not enough control for creditors? Since when are they allowed to lock you out of your purchased property without a court order?
I don’t even live in the US, so what the actual fuck?
Edit 1: You can check it’s installed (stock Pixel 6 android 14) Settings > Apps > All Apps > three dot menu, Show system > search “DeviceLockController”.
I highly recommend getting NetGuard, you can enable pro features via their website if you have the APK for as low as 0.10€, but donate more, because it’s amazing. You can also purchase via Google Play store.
Pixel 7 Pro reporting in. There is no DeviceLockController on my phone. Just installed the latest monthly updates a couple of days ago.
Pixel 7 Pro here and on the latest update, and I have it. Mine is from factory, so no payment plan at all.
iPhone 12 Pro Max with ios17 and I don’t.
Probably a carrier thing. I’m on TMobile
Pixel 7 with GrapheneOS. I have it, and I’m in Asia.
As am I.
Pixel 6a here in the US. I bought it directly from Google. I have the app.
Sony Xperia 1 here, no app, neither.
