How long do you keep dailying a phone after the security updates for it end?
How long do you keep dailying a phone after the security updates for it end?
Phones are getting better support lives these days, but they still physically outlast their software support. How important is that safety net/blanket for you?
I install a custom ROM and use it until its life ends.
Not to sound like a downer but I kinda gave up on custom roms. Few problems:
Example conversation (good and bad interaction). Background context I was using evolution x and maitainer stepped down. I was considering switching to pixel experience but wanted to ask about evo x maintiner leaving since was wondering if it was due to a technical issue and if said technical issue might impact pixel experience.
Question with good interaction:
Follow up hostile reaction from a different user (I didn't add any new context/messages from first message):
I will admit I may have gone slightly off topic and may have been a bit premtive in asking the question (since a new maintainer picked up the torch within 2-3 hrs), but in the past with pixel experience when the maintainer quit no new maintainers came for 3-5 months (and safteynet broke during that duration).
Sorry if this post kinda sounds grumbly. I want to like custom roms. I'm still using the Feb version of Evo X since its feature set is arguably better than oneplus oxygen os but it kinda becomes a trade off do you want more features and more maintences or accept limited number of new featuers (for only 2-3 years) but with less overall maintence.
