You're planning on soon transitioning from a 2 year old phone for sustainability reasons?
- gameoverhumans 3y agoUh, no? I'm currently leasing my Fairphone 4 from Commown, so I'm fairly sure it will go on to live a healthy and productive life elsewhere. I also purchased a used Pixel 6 Pro from eBay. As per my comment elsewhere in this post, I'm switching away from Fairphone because I care more about the security and software-level ownership of my device. If GrapheneOS had support for Fairphone, I would have stuck with my FP4 for many years to come.
- jcul 3y agoI recently bought a second hand Pixel 6 and installed GrapheneOS on it. Couldn't be happier. Surprisingly it's one of the most straightforward ROMs I've used, and I've used many over the years.
- gameoverhumans 3y agoGlad to hear it! Mine still hasn't arrived yet but I'm very eager to give GrapheneOS a try. Tried LineageOS a few times over the years but when paired with microG it's barely usable, and with Play services I might as well just stick with stock. > ... most straightforward ROMs I've used ... ahem I believe GrapheneOS is an OS, and not a ROM...
