You get 5 year guaranteed support for the FP3. The FP2 launched with 5.1, and it is now on Android 7. We got Android 9 working via LineageOS but that is weekly

You get 5 year guaranteed support for the FP3. The FP2 launched with 5.1, and it is now on Android 7. We got Android 9 working via LineageOS but that is weekly snapshots which can (and will) break. The problem here, btw, is Qualcomm.
- tmikaeld 7y agoSo, that's why they can't leave guarantees then, they simply don't know how long Qualcomm will support the chipset. I wonder how this compares to other chipset makers
- est31 7y agoDoesn't Qualcomm also contribute to mainlining of kernel support? Are the drivers for the FP3 SOC upstreamed in mainline? If not, is there an effort to do that?
