Is there an e/0s unofficial file for a Samsung A52 5G SM-A526U1?

Hello
I shifted back to Samsung after getting myself an impossible to unlock xiaomi dead end.

Thought the Samsung A52 official e/os build would work with all A52’s phones but it seems not to be the case… sadly my model isnt exactly the model supported by the e/support

My phone is Samsung A52 5G SM-526U1 a52xq

I think lm ok with twrp build and /or found a method with orange fox and Magix not sure how to yet…

But lm only finding a lineage os version for that phone… Im not sure where to look for unofficial versions…

Anyone knows better ?

If you have found any build for

why do you not link it ?

Samsung …U1 are very often carrier bootloader locked, but if anyone has built (anything) for it, then we can follow your links.

except the last link to TWRP that is for a52xq,
all other previous links are about a52sxq, not a52xq

Probably not but where in France did you find such a phone? If a “refurbisher” I hope you pass on a message like “they didn’t want it in USA and we certainly don’t want it in Europe”. :slight_smile:
