I have a Nokia G42. Are there any operating systems that will run on it other than Android, or will I need to buy another phone?
Doesn't look like anything for Ubuntu Touch, PostmarketOS or even LineageOS. If you are looking at another phone each of the operating system's websites list compatibility and what features are supported.
