Can anyone tell this meme is true or false? I don't have Gspy so I cannot test this

yeah, would love to, but last time I checked my phone is not supported

[–] 520@lemmy.zip 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Shit, not even with Lineage? What model is your phone?

[–] HrabiaVulpes@europe.pub 1 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Samsung Galaxy A35

Yeah, I just checked Lineage and it's not on the list.

[–] 520@lemmy.zip 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

So, there are unsupported builds of Lineage for the phone. Can definitely understand why you wouldn't want to try that though.

[–] HrabiaVulpes@europe.pub 1 points 16 hours ago

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.

[–] kamen@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

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).
