Im on Blorp. Your able to add the caption and within that UI you can click on it before clicking the picture. But dont worry I put it in the title for everyone to see. :3 I don’t know why I did it but I was immediately assuming that everyone was gonna see it.
Dang… I Didn’t realize how different that is for eveyone.
This is the Teracube 2s running e/OS
They use a combination of ATT, Verizon and T-Mobile networks. Will still look into them of course and see if its worth it.
Unless your into jailbreaking, don’t get an iPhone. Also, as an ex-iphone user, its SUPER hard to get out of their ecosystem.
Unihertz Jelly Star
I still have it but don’t use it. After going through that with Canta and Shizuku, I factory reset the whole thing. There’s this weird glitch on Canta where you can’t download the apps you uninstalled, which was what I needed to do to get it working again, but I couldn’t do it.
Now the dumbphone community is interesting, it teaters on the line of the period before smartphones and let’s get away from the addiction of smartphones. Basically modernized flip phones, T9 phones and even some bringing back the Blackberry. But most are to limited in their features and are very pricy.
And that link, with the “dumb phones” that has to do with Nokia’s I believe?? They’re unfortunately unusable in the US because we got rid of 2G between 2017-2020 and 3G in 2022; with the 4G model, you can’t even buy them here. So all of those phones are basically collectables. Yes cheap but once again, unavailable. The phone market here is heavily monopolized.
What about the FuriOS phone?
I think that market is slowly changing cause you can find some phones that actually are build to run like a phone but the problems that have appeared are compatibility issues like calling/texting or running apps that are needed for some (banking apps).
Thank you for saying this. Yes, its getting way harder and its not easy finding an older phone to install these ROMs. Even with what’s going on with how Google is reacting with Graphene OS. They are slowly locking y’all out of the Pixels, and AOSP dropped support of the Pixels with Android 16.
(This is one example) The latest update to the Pixel 10 camera is locking out Graphene OS users cause it needs Play Services in order to work
Until Graphene OS is allowed on different phones, then I’ll consider. At some point they’re gonna have to move to a different phone model.
My complaint with Lineage OS (that no one seems to talk about for some reason) is the requirements you gotta go through to get the exact phone in order to install them directly, hence one reason why I got the Teracube. Or some of these other OS system requirements, buying a phone for it is just not possible due to availability issues.
It is (so far) but I wanted a phone with a SD card slot. Pixels don’t have that and also I just don’t want a pixel.
Thanks😁. Its my favorite out of all of her albums, especially with seeing her live last month for opening for Evanescence. Such an amazing band.
If you go to Teracubes website, getting the degoogled version of this phone was only 50 USD more then the regular android version they have, which is nothing in comparison of how much these Linux phones, preinstalled degoogled phones and even dumphones are being sold for. And that too, the tinkering is not easy like most make it out to be, unless you get a Pixel to install Graphene OS (which is what im realizing that most use on here)
Getting this phone lessened the headache by a landslide, and it’s the most affordable without spending an arm and leg on a dam phone that might not even work properly (Linux phones) , a phone that is just to expensive (dumbphone), or finding out your tinkering with the wrong model device or completely brick a phone ( I can personally say this is what happened to me when I tried to degoogled my Unihertz Jelly Star)
Again, like I had to tell someone else, not everyone on here is super tech savy. And there’s gonna be more people like that coming here, especially with what’s going on with Reddit.
Unfortunately, they’re the only phone company that we have in the states that accept phones like this. Even with what’s going on with the dumbphone and Linux phones market, only choice you have is Tmobile or a carrier that is own by T-Mobile.
The Teracube is running e/OS.
For the US Market, the only phones they have that are available online and even in store are the 15 and 15R.(Really expensive phones BTW) If you want any other model, you gotta go to either Amazon, Back Market, or Best Buy (sometimes you can get an older model from here).
The models for OnePlus are very limited, it used to never be like that.
That was actually my first choice I was gonna do as well. I got myself the Nord N200 5g but I unfortunately received the wrong model from Back Market. I returned it and ended up getting this phone for less of a headache to try to find the exact model of a phone in order to install LineageOS. That’s my only problem with them.
Thanks for the heads up on that. I haven’t heard of him but will keep a look out.
Yep, I brought it from Murena.
How do you feel about them partnering up with Motorola? If we can actually get a good phone with that, I might consider.
On my screen, in the bottom right of the post before clicking the photo, it says “Atl”. when you click it it gives the caption
I did consider that but pixels dont have SD cards, and also its a pixel, I dont want to be bothered with their hardware.
Dang, are you serious? My current phone even though a year older gets way more 4G bands than that when I just use 4G. im looking it over know and that freaking sucks.Good news, I can return the phone, I just got it a couple of days ago. I might just return that and just degoogle my samsung cause this is freaking ridiculous.
