I have an unlocked galaxy s21 ultra and was considering giving it new life with a new OS but the amount of “don’t brick your Samsung” and “galaxy phones aren’t compatible with custom roms” put me off. Not sure what to do either
I have a moto g 5g 2023 which is apparently different than the moto 5g, and an A9+ tablet. I found a thread talking about the difference and some regional reasons why my phone and others like it don’t always have support. It looks like versions of these OSes often just don’t exist for a lot of devices, because fewer people use them. The lineage website did have a lot of samsung devices listed though and might have yours, so there definitely are some options. But it’s not every phone, which sucks, but i think the warnings about bricking are real and not just discouragement.
Honestly opening up software on consumer devices should be the law and mayyybe one day it will be in the us (eu allowed some semblance of alternative app stores recently and that’s something? ) but I think those of us with the less common and budget mobile devices might just have to wait for now. Or continue living inside the matrix, as someone else here said.
Spend time with your special boy, that’s the best way to make them feel better, and hopefully not any time soon, but be sure to be there to send him over the rainbow bridge when it is his time.
A few years ago I had to say goodbye to my my first cat. It was a heartbreaking 2 weeks of very heavy ups and downs. On Christmas day, that he was sick and went into the final spiral of a terrible day and sometimes a little better, but he kept getting worse and worse generally, until the vet agreed that he wouldn’t recover. He was put to sleep in my and wife’s hands. Sometimes you have to help them to not suffer. And honestly we breathed a very heavy sigh of relief after knowing that he wouldn’t be suffering any more and his final moments were with the humans he loved. Cats try their best not to show pain and discomfort so when they do, you know its really bad.
These snarky jabs are missing the point. I’m not a major party prodigal son casting a spite vote, I am actually not interested in either of their platforms and want to force them slowly over time to change.
Having bought 2 in my lifetime so far my approach has always been to say bugger all to the agent. I owe them nothing. If I have questions I ask, if they ask me questions I give them the most limited information possible, obviously being polite. I always kept my cards close to my chest until it was time to lift the auction paddle.
Say very little; it’s none of their business. Dress how you normally would.
