Unlocking your bootloader doesnt void your warrenty on Pixel devices

Legally, it can't on anything. But good luck suing Samsung.

Me too! UPS should be delivering my Pixel any moment, I can’t wait 😅

Damn really? I swapped mine the minute I opened it and just assumed the warranty was gonna be gone.

No waaaaay. Can one achieve similar results with Graphene?

monotrox@discuss.tchncs.de · 6 pts · 3y

Custom launchers and icon packs should work on any android version

I don't think Graphene has customizations

ShittyKopper@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 3y

Graphene is the boring person's custom ROM.

RelentlessArts@feddit.uk · 2 pts · 3y

Most should work you just risk adding an extra place someone can attack your phone so give a good vetting to any custom additions.

Apeeksiht@lemdro.id · 1 pts · 3y

it's looks like every other roms out their I just found it be most stable. I'll be moving on to paranoid android next.

Voiding my warranty is always the first thing I do to a phone, it's quite cathartic. Now if the Samsung boot loader would stop bitching at me about it every time I boot the damn thing that would be great lol

Do any of these work on the Pixel Fold well?

LordAmplifier@pawb.social · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

I couldn't find any user reports, but CalyxOS for the Pixel Fold is currently in beta. They say that everything should be working, though.

Djent@ani.social · 3 pts · 3y

I'm waiting til security updates end next year to switch, because I like a lot of the pixel features. But I definitely want to move over some time soon

Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz · 1 pts · 3y

Pixel 5?

Crashumbc@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y (1 reply)

As an old fart, did they solve tap and pay in custom roms? That was why I gave them up way back in the day .

ShittyKopper@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 3y

It's the same old cat and mouse game, except instead of SafetyNet it's named Play Integrity, and Samsung still has that irrecoverable e-fuse BS they have going on.
