This is actually a follow-up to an earlier post lamenting that I was being forced into a new phone because my 3G one is no longer supported.

I was depressed and resigned to submitting to newer, more advanced, Google spyware.

That's why today I am sharing with you my joy in discovering that, so far, I have succeeded in bypassing, and even completely DISABLING Google's Play Store, and most other Google-related apps (Gmail, etc). Yet I still have all the apps I want and they work beautifully!

The secret? I found a sweet little open source substitute, which works even better than APK Pure.

AURORA STORE (auroraoss.com) Got it off their website without even using Play Store. Kudos to the developers. You make the world a better place.
