Well, pretty much expected for Google software on Android. Surprisingly, the base OS is fine, it's just the proprietary stuff on top that sucks. You're unlikely to get Fi working with AOSP, but it looks like you're unlikely to get it working anyway.
Sent from my LineageOS phone, getting security updates weekly, very stable, and better looking, in my opinion.
- spraak 7y agoWow cool, I've been wanting to run a more true Linux based phone. What country and carrier are you using?
- snazz 7y agoIt’s still Android, just minus the Google stuff (no Play Services, all open source minus binary drivers, etc). I’ve used both AT&T and Sprint in the US and have had no problems at all. People who want the Google stuff can still flash Play Services before the first boot if they want and that works good too. The device list covers lots of stuff you can buy cheaply used (upgrade a Galaxy S4 to Android 9, for instance) as well as high-end new devices: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
