@totalrando haha no problem completely understandable xD

So i figured out in my case it would go black and then id force restart but it would ruin the install. So if u just unplug usb after the it says suggust it will do its thing. But if any oneis wondering i installed android 8 stock rom from xperifirm on windows10. Linux versiom coulnt get to work. Then i fastboot oem 7.1 binaries.

There might be minor hardware differences, too. At least on Pixel and Pixel 2 the XL variant has a different build tree with some incompatible differences.

@povoq thanks for the reply. I figured it would take time, I prefer the UT setup or navigation, the slider. But not going to lie the battery and speed of lineageOS is something to work towards to. Id imagine if UT has the same speed and battery life as lineageOS, our operating system would be a lot more desired. I think this is why a lot of people get into linux in the first place, bring back life to a old system.

@cibersheep Thank you for your thorough answer, I like the idea of the openstore but I remember hearing concerns for snap packages because of their centralized nature. My understanding is because you have to be approved simliar to ios or android. I'd assume because OpenStore's opensourced problems like these are alot less likely.

Cool setups! This is mine: [image: 1622885530087-screenshotphone.jpg] [image: 1622886056892-screenshotphone2x1-resized.jpg]

@unrealb2 : I think @AppLee is right. Being able to view web/video better and having a large keyboard are plus points of huge phones. Of course, downside to them is they're less easy to carry. In that respect smaller phones are better. Which type you prefer is all a matter of priority. Unfortunately, choice in the latter category is limited. A few more phones would be nice.

@vlladdrakk thats what i was thinking of doing, is finding an app and study its language code and mess around with it. Thanks for the input guys. Yeah i dont know any language ive studied a little bit of bash python and javascript but i want to focus on one to actually build something. Ill look at other peoples code, monkey see monkey do
