Unlocking your bootloader doesnt void your warrenty on Pixel devices

Im actually installing grapheneos todsy

Me too! UPS should be delivering my Pixel any moment, I can’t wait 😅

Damn really? I swapped mine the minute I opened it and just assumed the warranty was gonna be gone.

Long live custom ROMs

No waaaaay. Can one achieve similar results with Graphene?

Most should work you just risk adding an extra place someone can attack your phone so give a good vetting to any custom additions.

Voiding my warranty is always the first thing I do to a phone, it's quite cathartic. Now if the Samsung boot loader would stop bitching at me about it every time I boot the damn thing that would be great lol

⚠️⚠️KNOX IS NO LONGER ACTIVATED YOUR PHONE MAY EXPLODE AND KILL YOU ⚠️⚠️

I'm waiting til security updates end next year to switch, because I like a lot of the pixel features. But I definitely want to move over some time soon

As an old fart, did they solve tap and pay in custom roms? That was why I gave them up way back in the day .

It's the same old cat and mouse game, except instead of SafetyNet it's named Play Integrity, and Samsung still has that irrecoverable e-fuse BS they have going on.
