      I know about custom ROM without google (Actually everybody know 😅).But I am not interested I think I have arch setup on PC then why wasting time on setting up mobile when I am never gonna use it that way I just wanted a bit freedom BY some tweaking some settings but now I think google is far more dangerous than U can ever think of

      Have a nice day,Namaste.
