Believe me, I’m not rich either lol
I buy phones like millions of others in the US, from the carrier on a EIP
So its more like ~50/month for a regular top tier flagship or an extra 25 (75/month) for a foldy

That’s true, but Google Pixels are also one of the few remaining US brands that allows you to somewhat freely unlock the BL
So custom roms can easily be had, in fact GrapheneOS is one that specifically targets Pixels in general
It’s the 2nd biggest reason I didn’t jump onto the Foldy bandwagon with Samshit (#1 being how damn narrow the cover screen is)
That’s true, but software is software, it can be modified by end users to suit their needs, especially on Pixel foldables which are one of the few remaining US brands that still somewhat freely allow you to unlock the bootloader.
So in that case with an unlockable BL, one could even flash a custom ROM that fixes any issues
It’s too darn expensive for what it does
It’s a phone that folds in half, the tech has been in development for something like 15 years. I swear I’ve been hearing about folding/flexible displays at CES since like 2004
After years and years of complaints of nothing but stagnant candy bar designs we get something new and fresh and now it’s “too expensive” LMAO
the software side of things is what more important
Nice thing about that is software is updatable, I find it silly when people say the hardware is nice, but the software isn’t there so nope. As if the software was as permanent as the hardware lol
Duh, that’s how she issued the teleport and lockdown commands
You are a well known right-wing Trumper nut job around here, your opinion on what is and is not toxic is utterly worthless. Especially on toxic masculinity.
Lol I tried, hopefully you’ll find your prize one day fellow CCB fan 🫡
At least the link is here for wayward chili cheese burrito fans
Mayonnaise? What the actual fuck…
Umm ok well…listen, now hear me out here
Have you tried the CCB locator?
The item you seek could be closer than you think
The CCB is a franchisee optional item, they vary wildly in availability as a result.
For example, they’ve been available in every Colorado location I’ve been to
Are you saying because Graphene is unrootable and 150k choose it means user space is fine?
Because those 150k made a choice to switch to a custom rom with the features built-in that they would typically need root for on ANY stock OEM rom, such as effective system-wide Adblocking
Ofc userspace is just fine in that scenario
Now, if you’re saying only 150k people choose to flash a custom rom out of billions of Android devices that userspace is just fine and dandy, that’s just misleading. An absolute ton of those billions of devices are most likely Samshits, which is actively hostile to user choice and rooting and does everything they can to stop it. Up to and including (like someone else commented here) using Knox to brick the phone.
Living with userspace because you can’t or don’t want to overcome your choosen OEMs blockers/hostility is NOT evidence that user space is just fine.
On paper, but it’s pretty hit or miss IME on its implementations
Lol I love the “You don’t need root on modern Android, it does all the things you used to root for!” People. No, no it doesn’t lmao
I’m so sorry, I hope your life situation has improved so you’re not as desperate in the future
No bugs, less sun, way less heat, no stupid lawn to maintain for the stupid HOA. Paradise!
That’s an 11 year old phone, it’s time to move on, you’re not going to be able to run anything modern even with a custom ROM
On top of that, Verizon and Samsung are notorious for locking down the bootloader hard and you need to be able to unlock that to have any sort of custom ROM
Even a cheap Walmart 50$ Android phone will be better than the one you have
From what I understand the Samshit Foldables have achieved a dust resistance rating.
But in general, I think the dust problem is rather overblown. Just exposing it to dust isn’t going to kill it IME, if you were like a construction worker or other industry where you’re dealing with a very dusty environment to begin with then yea. But the average person should be fine with the occasional light dusty environment
