      Reference:
      https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/build_and_boot/index.html

      Exposition:
      I don't understand the difference between "Full system image method", the "Halium-boot method", or the "Standalone kernel method".

      I've read each one a couple of times, but I cannot really understand why one would be chosen over another.

      It seems to be that if I could find my devices in the LineageOS list, then I would choose the Full system image method, but since they are not there, I should choose the Standalone kernel method. This is my current understanding.

      Hardware:

      • Samsung Galaxy A01
      • Nokia 2 V Tella
      • Motorola Moto e6

      For the record, I do believe that my plan is to use Halium 9.0 for all three of my phone port attempts.

      Question:
      Does anyone have any general rule of thumb when choosing one of these three methods?

      Edit:
      I bet I'll find clues deeper in the Halium guide.

        Porting a device so that it's 100% usable under UT is a long road, so maybe you should first choose one of those 3 device and focus on it to port.

        2015-Now : Meizu MX4 (Stable) for daily use
        Spare : Nexus 5 (Stable)

          I believe you. I don't think I'll be working on all 3 concurrently, but I am currently gathering data for all 3.

          There will likely be a point where I break off and focus on one specifically.
