@donut3 You can find the current list of supported devices here https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/wiki/en/wikis/devices-list - do not see the J3 on the list.
You should not flash another ROM on your device. It can brick your phone.
Please add your phone suggestions here [POLL] Which device(s) you would like /e/ to support next?
In case you have built a ROM for your device earlier you can try building using the instructions given here https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/wiki/en/wikis/build

Ok, thank you.
Is there any other os you would recommend that is without the horrible Google?
Thank you.

:slight_smile: The reason why most of us switched to /e/ is because the chances of running into google are almost nil here. The source code has been cleaned of google calls. Plus we have users who report any stray Google references or call which they detect - this results in more code updates and fixes from the /e/ development team. Not sure there are any ‘google-clean’ ROM’s out there at present.

Thank you. That makes sense…

Could you please forward me a link for buying the LeEco phone your company recommended? I know Gael said something about it being under $100 USD. Please send it soon… I want eelo asap!! Thank you!

I did purchase my LeEco Le2 new and unused on Ebay in my country of residence.
It is an older device, so you might have problems finding it in regular shops.

Yes, here it is. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NEW-LeEco-LE2-PRO-X620-Android6-Helio-X20-MTK6797-Deca-core-2-3GHz-5-5-Rear21/32865726497.html
Thank you! Is it possible to flash eelo os on this configuration?

Be careful! The Le2 PRO X620 is currently not officially supported by /e/.
Have a look at the “Supported models” section at https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/s2.
The supported model numbers are X520, X522, X526 and X527.

Markus, is this a valid link to buy the LeEco Le2? Would you recommend it? Is it the accurate phone to flash your eelo rom to?

Could you please give me a quote from eelo on these phones too? I am interested in a quote for 2 and a quote for 3. Thank you!

Thank you. Could you send me a link for the supported model? Could you also please give me a quote on 2 of them with eelo os preinstalled? Do tehy ship to the US?
Thank you!

Is it intentional, that you posted the same link as in your previous message? Because /e/ does not officially support the LeEco LE2 PRO X620.

Here is an ebay link for supported LeEco Le2 devices: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313.TR1.TRC0.A0.H0.Xleeco+le2+x526.TRS1&_nkw=leeco+le2+x526&_sacat=0
(Make sure, that you find one of the supported device model numbers X520, X522, X526 or X527 in the description)

Current status is that the e.foundation does not sell preinstalled devices yet.

But according to this recent announcement it looks like the Fairphone FP2 is a candidate for the first preinstalled device, that will be sold:

Currently the only way to get /e/ on a phone is by flashing it oneself. For example you find instructions of how to flash the LeEco Le2 here: https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/wiki/en/wikis/device/s2/install
You can find Installation instructions for the other supported device on this page: https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/wiki/en/wikis/devices-list

Yes. I forgot that I had sent the link already, and resent it. Could you please send me a link to buy LeEco phones eelo supports?
Thanks!

Can you please elaborate what you mean by this? It seems like I misunderstand your question.

Could you tell me where to get the phone I can run eelo on?
Or, better, could you quote me on pricing from eelo for preflashed eelo LeEco Le2 phones?
Thanks!

In my previous message I included a link to ebay where the supported LeEco Le2 was sold.

At the moment there are no preflashed /e/-phones available.

Thank you! That is perfect.

Thank you for the support!
I am delighted with eelo’s support team!

Could you tell me when eelo will start selling phones with eelo preinstalled?

Is there any x86 eelo or android app-running software you would recommend me? (yes, I do know about androidx86.)

Unfortunately no and I am not sure if even the developers know when this will be available.

A few years ago I did not find anything that suited my needs, so I have no experience with that topic.
