I know there is always mention of this so I’m sorry for posting it again but I couldn’t find any good information
Does anyone have a good way of blocking Status, Channels, and AI on WhatsApp without having to install a modified WhatsApp APK?

I want to bake it into the rom. I don’t want to use MDM
Like a background app in the rom

I did updates, but it’s text based. Change the language and it’s open. Not great
You have to scan for the layout, not words… very hard btw…

Yeah… Wasn’t a project for me
does someone have a status,channels,ai blocked apk?
I don’t know much about WhatsApp, never used it, but I think it’s not really possible to mod.

If you wanna mess with xposed modules…
Not the most stable thing to include in a rom though
Could modify this:
WhatsApp tools for Android

Same to all other platforms? And what’s the payment catch here?

Didn’t try anything else but Whatsapp
Payment?
Was showing this as more of a concept for a linked device platform with messages only if someone wanted to explore development.

I have been using Beeper for 2+ years already. Both when WhatsApp Channels and AI came out I suggested to some developers to make a Kosher Whatsapp based on the open source backend. No one has done it yet. (As far as I know.) If someone would develop a Kosher Whatsapp they could also add a paid option which does not require Whatsapp on another device and just host a bunch of emulators.
Build this into a fully functioning SMS app, include dpad support, and Im sure you could sell it to one of the kosher phone companies.
