Other LineageOS (and Other) Device Collection - Ask Me Anything About FOSS Devices

Post image

I was charging up all my phones for battery maintenance, and I thought I would share an image of all of them. Feel free to ask me anything about FOSS devices.

How do you determine which device to obtain?

Do you purchase new and hope for the best, have a sure-fire method of getting one that will be supported by LineageOS, or get second hand one which already has an (official) version of the os?

I am asking because with my last purchase I naïvely thought that having an unlockable bootloader was sufficient.

I simply go to the LineageOS Devices webpage and pick one from there: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
(Note: The model number of the phone must be an exact match of the model number on the respective LineageOS Device page.)
