What I love about Linux in general, is that it may not be as refined as some others, but you can do cool stuff with it. Sandboxing, spoofing, security, hacking, etc.

No need 4 phone calls...it does morse code for protection.

@Lakotaubp OK thanks! It's pretty stable? I'm not looking for perfection. Just stable enough.

I guess I'll get the oneplus one.

I will try to get an S3... Wanna help.

Does anyone use Macchanger app??

@ToxyPoxy I don't like buying things like that from China anyway. Nothing against Chinese people.

@advocatux Thanks! Yeah I'm with you on not trusting. People are so "corruptible", and cave in to pressure from various things.

Yeah, Tutanota is German company....not sure what country is best. Might give your suggestion a shot.

@fredldotme I really want to root. Don't I need it to have "complete control" over the phone?

@fredldotme Oh ok. I didn't go back to 9.0. I'm currently on android 11. Will do that.

Here's the errors I'm seeing.

I'm not gonna lie. The main obstacle that I have with open source...is lack of pay music apps. Like amazon music, spotify, etc.

Is it hard to get UT on a Pixel 3a? I think I tried to root it, and it was having issues. I'm fairly tech savvy...just not in this area of Android and Linux.

@Flohack Takes a long time to learn debian packaging skills? I'm a techie...but not a coder. I have learned some HTML though. So I'm just curious how long it would take to learn something helpful....

Just wondering about something. Could I go into my OPO with UT, and manually replace network drivers?

@AppLee I am on stable.

@Edward-Wilhelm Literally, the router is pretty close. I can't usually get it to connect unless i'm about 15 feet away This isn't a big house either.

I really think something is screwed up. I wish I had another router to test it. I have seen weird stuff from random routers not agreeing well. But it wasn't doing that when I had LineageOS on it...

So basically...I could stand 6 inches away, and the signal wouldn't be very good.

@wdehoog No I didn't. It had LineageOS on it, and I used the installer for UT.

I will try to revert back, and see what I can do. I have time to fix it...not an emergency. But if someone has any ideas...let me know. Thanks!!!

@AppLee This was a fresh install.
