So, I’ve read through a couple of these alternative Android rom sites, looking for a way to do anything with this phone.
It seems as though no one even mentions it, or do I have the name of the phone completely wrong, and I’m just misreading… The phone being a Samsung Galaxy s22 Ultra.
On top of that, I’ve never actually modified a phone before, so I’m definitely very new to this.
Any info regarding direction to anything related to this phone would be nice.
I’m actually kinda of tired of this thing, I only use phones to call and text people. Other than that, I just got it cause of the drive space, I use it as a sort of flash drive that I keep PC repair apps, and my ISO’s for writing to other flash drives as well as some audio books.
That’s really it, I simply get tired of carrying it around trying to justify having the thing because I spent so much on it. At this point though, I’d be fine if it broke, or somehting happened to it, I’m just using it as an experiment to learn something about cracking phones open.
I’ve tried a couple of times before to do this rooting thing, but I’ve always given up, the instructions seem oddly in depth and a bit crazy for what the outcome is. Yeah, it would be nice to remove some of the crap off the phone, but I don’t understand why that’d be any different than the way I use it now.
I thought I’d use it to play games more often through Steam Link and a Moga Pro controller, but I simply just resort to using my desktop. I can do anything I want on PC, fairly easily. But on android it’s so limited and wrapped up in all kinds of chains, it just doesn’t seem worth it unless I’m about to learn something.
…and if there is one thing I’ve learned about PC’s, the best way to learn to fix one, is break a few.
Even when carrier network is unlockable, bootloader stay locked.
Is about B , E , N , O variants but not U or U1
.
Also Samsung running alternative OS can’t use voice over LTE (it is proprietary feature), so only one USA carrier (and its MNVO) can be used for calls.
.
My advise is to find another smartphone to test alternative OSes.
Meh, I think I’m just going to post it on Craigslist or something. It’s already too much hassle, I can simply put my sim card in my older phone and use it. Thanks for the info.
