  • Description: Hello again. Today I ran into a new issue on v23: I suddenly received a Google Play Protect error stating “Dieses Gerät ist nicht fĂĽr Play Protect zertifiziert” (Device is not Play Protect certified).

I wanted to report this so the team is aware. The good news is that I managed to fix this specific certification error myself by performing a complete GApps reset.

However, I have to point out that the reset did not improve the overall situation. All the other major bugs I reported previously are still fully present: windows are still minimizing/disappearing into the void, the intent bridge for web links is still completely broken, and general app compatibility remains much worse than on the old Android 11 subsystem.

I really hope an SP1 update is released soon to address these core issues. Right now, it’s hard to see the advantage of using FydeOS on my device when the Android integration is struggling this much. I’ve attached a screenshot of the Play Protect error for your reference.

Hi, thanks for the reply!

Actually, I am already using the latest version of the GApps app. I ran into the “older version” issue previously and updated it back then. This new Play Protect error happened while I was already on the newest version from the store.

But no worries! As I mentioned in my initial post, I already managed to fix the Play Protect issue myself by doing another complete GApps reset.

To be honest, it’s not a huge deal right now. So far, v23 has unfortunately been a bit of a letdown for my daily use because of the other unresolved bugs (like the disappearing app windows and the broken intent bridge for web links). I’m just patiently waiting and hoping that the upcoming SP1 update will bring the stability back!

Thanks again for your time!

You just need to use the third option next time to fix this issue. I guess they will release a SP version soon.
