    I’m on a rooted android 8.0.1 Oreo.

    That’s right, my android still has a food related name. Step aside losers

    My Samsung J7 is old enough to go to elementary school and is as snappy and functional as the day I got it. Haven’t had a phone in more than half a decade.

    I also have a functional Samsung S5 booted with android 12, courtesy of Lineage OS

      Android 8.0.0 reporting in o7

      I checked it a while ago, my phone turned seven this summer

      kinda miss system-level darkmode, since many apps don’t allow you to choose theme yourself anymore, but eh, what gives

      yeah, its mostly all the garbage they bake into the stock roms.

      remember laptops, where they were expected to need a reformat out of the box? same for phones but the process is much more complicated and locks you out of banking apps.

        Actually, I was able to patch (lucky-patcher) my bank app to remove the module that detects root. So I haven’t had issues with that :D
