Yesterday I got an ad for an illegal casino on a Xiaomi Poco X4 Pro 5G phone, from the GetApps stock app: https://imgur.com/a/xdh9uUt https://imgur.com/a/xdh9uU

No thanks, this was the last drop, I will unlock the bootloader and install a third-party ROM. Not decided yet, either Pixel Experience (a huge postitve factor here is that their ROMs are built using CI, not by humans) or crDroid.
- Nextgrid 3y agoA better solution would be to return it under warranty as defective (a device whose stock apps are adware - for illegal stuff no less - would definitely count) and buy a replacement from a manufacturer that doesn't engage in such shenanigans.
- bojan 3y agoIt would not definitely count as defective, and certainly not in a developing country where warranty laws are weaker and/or not enforced. In my home country they'd probably laugh you off if you'd try to return an otherwise perfectly working device because a bloatware app showed you an illegal ad.
