Since we don’t yet have a specific community for custom phone ROMs, let’s discuss them here. Are you running a custom ROM? Which one? On what hardware? How is it?
Using GraphineOS on a Pixel 6. It’s very nice! I haven’t had any problems with it.
Unfortunately none. I have an S10e with a locked bootloader. This is the first android phone I’ve owned that I hadn’t used a custom ROM on. The last Samsung phone I owned was an S4 and I hadn’t kept up with the custom ROM scene, so I hadn’t known the locked bootloader nonsense when I got the S10e.
It sucks because there are no note security updates for the phone even though the hardware is still in good condition. I can’t justify replacing a working phone even if I could afford a new one. I’m hoping eventually a vulnerability will be uncovered that allows unlocking the bootloader. There was one a few years ago I think, but it got patched before I even knew about it.
LineageOS so i can use Android11 on pretty old hardware
also another one with LOS11+MicroG instead of GApps, same reason
GrapheneOS on a Pixel 6. Works great! I’ve had to override the custom memory allocator one or two times for banking apps, but that’s just flipping a switch in the app info.
LineageOS with microg on a s10+. It works great, no issues with apps not working but still have minimal google dipping it’s fingers into my life.
I only buy phones now that will support a custom ROM, I can’t go back now.
Pixel Experience
CalyxOS on my Pixel 3. Love it. Runs better than the standard Android crap.
Who knew getting rid of all the tracking bullshit helps? This is my surprised face -> :-/
GrapheneOS on a Pixel 4a, bit I’m looking to upgrade to a 6a vor 7a depending in the next good sale price
GrapheneOS on a Pixel 6a and iOS on an iPhone in the other pocket lol
IodeOS on FairPhone 4.
I’m only running FOSS application on it.
Lineage OS on my pixel 5. I’m looking to set up my environment so I can build and sign my ROM that way I can lock the bootloader.
Have you ever built one before? I’ve looked into it and it’s not a trivial thing.
and now you have me starting a build… I was going to play games tonight so thanks!
I’m sorry & you’re welcome?
Yes
Grapheneos for years now
DerpFest on OnePlus 7T. It has tons of customization options, also stable. Comes with GAPPs so some might not like that.

None sadly because fuck samsung
I hate how they blow fuses to permanently disable security features when the bootloader is unlocked.
Locked bootloaders should be illegal if the phone is paid off.
Absolutely agree, and I refuse to buy Samsung phones because of this.
