@fredldotme Duped the two files to the /usr/lib/ location and rebooted. Here's the grep... ouch!

As an aside - do you have any pointers on if this solution can be dual-bootable with an Android build? I'm excited about trying to push UBports forward, but the SMS/GPS issue is a major deal breaker as this is my daily driver now. I think I'm going to have to roll it back to the default Android build, but would like to keep helping.
Else, I might make a bad habit of toggling back and forth between the two when I don't need my Pixel at full health
Are you not seeing any of the mentioned issues on your 3a? Maybe it's a carrier problem? I'm on Verizon (US).
