That is cool. So far I use phones with removable batteries already. Never really understood how to put LineageOS on them. Maybe a link to an easy tutorial per phone would be nice.
Another good resource to find phones with removable battery is this chart:

- onli 6y agoThanks. To link specific instruction is a good idea. For lineage there is always the wiki page, so you can go to https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ and then click on the phone you have and there will be an installation manual. Not always 100% you need to know, but a good start. I should link those, the url scheme is regular, that should be an easy change. Edit: The Lineage link now goes to the device wiki entry, where the installation instructions are also linked. For the removable battery, the idea here really is to go one step further. When almost all modern phones have no removable battery the next best thing is having a battery that is easy to replace, even if it is not directly swappable.
- sumthinprofound 6y agoUnfortunately installing Lineage is going to vary wildly by device (rooting device, installing custom recovery, installing lineage then gapps). Depending on the device there might not be support for all of the device features (bluetooth not working, for example). I have found the best way to see what lineage options looks like for a particular device (and root, recovery, install requirements) is to check the XDA device forums for specific devices before phone purchase.
