When will the Lemmy phone launch? I'm ready to cancel anything now

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

In the meantime, if you have or can find a compatible device, there is LineageOS.

That's how I have a Xiaomi phone without any of the MIUI bullshit.

+1 to this. Next time I'll be buying a new phone, I'll have a look at what phones are supported by LOS

Right now I'm on a Xiaomi CC9 with LOS. It felt a whole new phone after I got rid of MIUI (which didn't receive any updates in about one year and half)

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

The problem is getting a brand new model compatible with LOS.

Last year I specifically got a Redmi Note 9 Pro (brand new unit), which at the time was a 2 year old model, because it was one of the few models that matched the specifications I was looking for AND it was officially LOS supported.

I mean, I'm pretty happy with it, this thing is a beast and I'm not one of those guys who need the last model of everything, but I paid the around same of what the new Redmi Note 11s costed at the time. No regrets; anything to have a Xiaomi without that MIUI cancer.

So...stupid question, how do you have service? Like, you would still have to contact one of them (t-mobile, at&t, verizon) to make the "cell" part work, right?

[-] Cianalas@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

You still use the carrier sim card for a connection. That doesn't depend on what OS you're using.

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Nope... it just works, really, like with a stock rom. I'm Europe, but I don't think that matters.

AFAIK, smartphones just get those settings automatically from the service provider. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

GrapheneOS is fantastic. I've also heard a lot of good things about LineageOS, lately. Both are pretty much what you're asking for, I suspect.
