These days things are much better thanks to Treble. Device-independent ROMs are a reality. You can easily flash pure AOSP on any modern phone.

- yagya 5y agoWhile that's in theory, reality is much more harsh. Treble implementations vary greatly between OEMs. For example, Samsung phones don't have mobile data working because of proprietary RIL used by Samsung. Also, Treble compatibility often breaks on newer versions of Android, especially for Pixels (which is quite ironic). Treble is really meant to make the job easier for OEMs and ROM devs to continue supporting a device. The GSI is really meant as a way to certify Treble.
