Do you use a device with open source Android firmware? What device, which distro and what do you do with it? I have a Samsung tablet with LineageOS and apps from F-Droid. Other than displaying dire warnings about the unlocked bootloader every time it cold boots, It’s great for a “recliner system”: email, Web browsing, E-book reader and MP3 player. What do you have, what do you use it for, and how well does it work for you?

    I tried Lineage (actually /e/OS) on a Samsung phone, and it was great, except voice calling did not work. It turns out that the Samsung VoLTE hardware has never been figured out by open source devs. Graphene looks interesting, I may trade in my phone to try it.

      You might want to consider CalyxOs since runs Android without any Google, just microG. Very easy on your battery 🔋
