Do not buy preloaded LineageOS or /e/ OS phones or any Android phones without proper Verified Boot support and firmware updates. These devices also have no way for you to check whether they've been tampered with.
I'd note: just installing lineageOS or /e/OS already triggers the boot tampered message. You're already going to lose the ability to check as it's already deviated from normal stock. Having a phone that omits this feature makes no difference.
there is a difference between no verified boot and getting the this device is loading a different operating system message. for example, grapheneos has verified boot. anything other than stock will result in that splash screen though.
Ah, the LineageOS with built-in signature spoofing and some goolag-like ecosystem.
no headphone jack, no buy. bought the FP4 thinking "it can't be that bad". how wrong i was.
I have one that runs this OS, pretty well I think. What was wrong with yours?
the headphone jack was missing
L for you
