The resources for this phone seemed to be scattered around the internet so I went ahead and wrote a simple on guide for it.

It covers: Rooting the phone, Installing Magisk (root), passing SafetyNet and debloating the phone. The phone is very barebones once you uninstall most of the apps! I like it a lot.

Does this work for the F21 Pro as well?

Haven't tested.

For the F21 Pro, there's actually a surprising amount of resources that are up to date, much much more than for the F22 Pro.

And here's a nice XDA thread too

The F21 Pro is actually a really nice and capable phone, I like it. Even the 3/32 model is pretty useable. I mean really, no toll on performance.

Only thing with the 3/32 is that if you want to use ROMs, most likely you need to fully format the device EXCEPT THE BOOTLOADER, I mean other than that, wipe the whole thing down to nothing. It's pretty scary, but then you can Format All + Download in SP Flasher for the ROMs.

Be really really sure you have backup of your factory ROM.

Smartphones dominate the world. But have we become smarter by using them?

This community is oriented for people who prefer either so-called "dumbphones" or "feature phones" in order to regain control of their life.

Here is a very simple set of rules to follow:

  1. Don't be rude to others.
  2. Don't harass or shame somebody for not being hardcore dumbphones fan. Everybody does it his own way.
  3. Keep this community simple: discussions must be dumbphone or smartphone-oriented, not about dogs or food.

All in all, enjoy your time here :D
