Hey people! I was wondering if anyone here has heard of/ used Morena’s /e/OS and would be willing to share some opinions?
I was looking to get a FairPhone 5 sometime soon anyways and randomly came across the option to get it “without Google”
Which took me a bit off guard because I never really considered that something like that could be an option (without the hassle of rooting a phone and slapping a custom OS on it). So - is it any good? It says that you can still install most regular Android Apps. I don’t think I would miss any specific Google features, and getting a fresh start with a phone does sound nice.
Im petty sure you don’t need to root a phone to install a custom ROM nowadays (unlocking bootloader, yes. And it is obviously more work installing a custom ROM than buying one that comes with it preinstalled).
That’s good to know! And just unlocking the bootloader doesn’t void the warranty on most phones, does it?
