yeah, would love to, but last time I checked my phone is not supported
Shit, not even with Lineage? What model is your phone?
Samsung Galaxy A35
Yeah, I just checked Lineage and it's not on the list.
So, there are unsupported builds of Lineage for the phone. Can definitely understand why you wouldn't want to try that though.
I may try unsupported builds on a phone I don't use, but for that I would need to buy phone.
The problem with Samsung (last time I checked at least) is that the moment you unlock the bootloader (which is needed to install anything other than stock), there's a flag raised voiding the warranty. That flag from what I know is acting like a hardware fuse, so it's pretty much non-reversible. Shame, really, because Samsung do have some really nice things in terms of hardware.
Well, It's also a quite old phone. I was never one to replace something just because newer version is available.
Yeah, but if it's new, you either put up with the stock firmware, or unlock it right away, giving up the 1 or 2 years of warranty (depending on the region).
