Which mobile released in 2023 in the US (other than the pixel) is supported by custom ROMs?

Hi everyone. I’m starting to feel a bit discouraged at this point. Other than the Google pixel, I don’t seem to see any new mobile being supported by custom ROMs in the US. Samsung devices are out of the question, not much from Motorola, OnePlus decided to retract their hard-brick reversal tool, same with ASUS, and even the...

Will using Shizuku trip Knox or void warranty or updates on Samsung phones?

I’m thinking of using Shizuku to give root access to Automate app. My doubt is will it backfire in some way.

Other than displaying dire warnings about the unlocked bootloader every time it cold boots, It’s great for a “recliner system”: email, Web browsing,...

I want to know if it’s possible to specify that these permissions are only granted for a specific directory/folder, rather than the whole device. It doesn’t seem like it, but curious if there’s a way to do...

Waydroid/Weston start and stop script for Mint and others

In order to get an Android-only app working on a desktop computer I installed Weston and Waydroid which worked, but as I (and the target machine) run Mint 21 it’s not as simple as just running Waydroid and having it work, plus there is no way to close out Waydroid from within itself. In order to make it easier to start and...
