>EU Mandates Android Bootloader Lock, Ending Custom ROMs from August 2025https://blazetrends.com/eu-mandates-android-bootloader-lock-ending-custom-roms-from-august-2025/>Starting August 1, 2025, bootloaders will be locked down. This means users won’t be able to install alternative ROMs anymore. All Android smartphone makers must follow this new rule.Cuckdroid sisters, our response?.. How will we install lineageOS on our new phones?
>>106441026Custom roms haven't been a thing for ten years or no so. iPhone is obviously worse and there's no alternative or solution to this other than having a small, cheap Android for 2FA and using as a hotspot then carrying around a small Linux tablet for applications, messaging and wifi calling.
>>106441026>How will we install lineageOS on our new phones?why would you do this? your warranty would be dead then.
>>106441026Custom roms haven't been a thing for awhile. I went and looked and even rooting shit is annoying af. I want to run NFS mounted drives on my phone with I am home. I guess everyone else on the planet just uses shitty slow af SMB shares.
>>106441026>cheap Android for 2FA and using as a hotspot then carrying around a small Linux tabletI tried something similar, used pinephone, then steamdeck (not with steamOS), but it's still far less comfortable than lineage unfortunately
>>106441063getting rid of google has it's price
>>106441026https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2014/53/oj/eng§19:>Verification by radio equipment of the compliance of its combination with software should not be abused in order to prevent its use with software provided by independent parties.Find me a better quote than that. That article is probably a bunch of LLM slop.
>>106441063Also I installed stock ROM on my 2018 phone and it was extremely slow, much worse than lineage (it was discontinued few months ago). So lineage can also be used to avoid planned obsolescence.
First of all, all modern smart phones are computer. I should be allowed to do anything with my computer. RELATED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBEKlIV_70E
>>106441118I would do this on an old phone too but never on a new one just because of the warranty, phone dropped, broken, no warranty but hey I had lineage on it to fuck goodle LMAO
Trump should liberate the UK.>>106441096Yes. You literally pay Google to fuck off by purchasing their Pixel.
>>106441026EU doesn't want to protect users. They have ulterior motives.
>>106441169Like protecting profit of capitalists?
>>106441133Well, I always did it on new phones. Before that I checked if everything works specifically for your warranty case. If you drop your phone, warranty doesn't apply and it won't be repaired for free.
>>106441026I'm going iphoneapple is the only company that can tell these vampires to fuck off android is dead
>>106441210>I'd rather take a massive BBC up my ass than watch my wife take one
>>106441196>If you drop your phone, warranty doesn't apply and it won't be repaired for free.depends in which country you are
>>106441186I heard that if you download (some specific) apps from play store, you can't read the news from some sources available in it, that were labeled as disinformation by your government. But you can read everything if you install .apk from app manufacturer website. Not sure if it's true, but if it is, seems like EU is preparing for war and is blocking russian/chinese propaganda. Which of course will also be used in all possible ways to fuck up the cattle.
>>106441210>that can tell these vampires to fuck offthey never allowed unlocking bootloader and installing any applications you want even without the vampires telling them to do it, lol
>>106441227this is a thing with telegram i know in canada, if you download telegram off the app store it blocks RT and /pol/ 4chan (a channel that just links to pol threads that got 300+ replies)you have to download the apk off the site for it to not be blocked
>>106441216in any country, because you can drop and break it hundreds of times for fun
>>106441186No. They want to "protect the children" by making you verify user age and perhaps other information to used Google Play store. You think it's a coincidence Google is locking side loaded software? It's not. There's a whole plot to force digital ID to limit what you can do in the internet.Even if you don't think EU has ulterior motives, this regular was about making sure radio devices would be certified, to avoid malicious radio communications, not locking devices, but companies interpreted as locking down is the only way to comply. Now imagine how much damage will these age verifications, wallets and digital ID do.The reason they're doing it with android is because everyone as a phone and everyone is being forced to have one.
>>106441026this is a month old fake news you stupid brownoid homosexual
>>106441278Yup. No freedom for goyim.
>>106441288It's not fake news. Samsung locked down their phones and Google and Xiaomi are potentially doing the same.
>>106441288well, I hope that you are right
>>106441227>blocking russian/chinese propagandaand replacing it with pro-ukrainian and pro-jewish propaganda. oh wow
European wanted a totalitarian gov that locks down all the communication systems so there cannot be any political dissents. Along with it, they locked down their minds behind bars.
>>106441293there's no EU law forcing them though
>>106441348Yup. See >>106441116
>>106441316>pro-ukrainianI never heard some absolutely insane made up nonsense nor desire to destroy west from that side.
>>106441026>EU Mandates Android Bootloader Locklies
>>106441338Do the communists really believe people will suddenly forget photosynthesis when they can no longer access wikipedia?
>>106441356>their deceitful and outrageous lies>our convincing and authoritative fact-checks
>>106441026Stop using phone, tiktok anon. It's only for 2FA and banking.
>>106441392russian schizo, you are not welcome here, you are the reason why our governments do al this shit
>>106441026What do you need a new phone for you braindead shitskin? Use what you've got already till it literally can no longer run whatever app you've deemed non-negotiable and keep replacing the others if they stop working in like 10 years. Android 6 here, still going strong.
>>106441368The goal of the totalitarian gov is to restrict the flow of information so the common people cannot share information across the local neighborhood, making citizens blind/deaf/mute to whats happening around them. They dont want people talking about mass importing of migrats from africa. They dont want people talking about children being castrated by top down mass movements.
>>106441432I need it when my current phone becomes discontinued by lineageOS.>Android 6 here, still goingaren't you afraid of being hacked because you don't receive security updates?
>>106441439>>106441368And the only information that is allowed is government approved legacy media that is controlled by either the government or funded by people who work with the gov to suppress the views. This is being taught as part of the "media literacy" propaganda in the west.
>>106441470the only thing to be "afraid" of in that situation is some app arbitrarily not supporting your current version
>>106441026fake news
>>106441426>>>/pol/
>>106441075Yesterday I tried out SFTPGo as a WebDAV server and it's decently fast between my Android tablet and Windows PC. You can quasi-mount it with gvfs inside Termux and browse via e.g. Thunar, and play media with mpv. I tried a bunch of BD remuxes this way and saw speeds upwards of 500 Mb/s when seeking in mpv. It felt almost as if I was dealing local files. (btw, SFTP wouldn't work with Thunar/Gigolo when I tried it, which is why I tried WebDAV in the first place).And then in Android land, you can use a Document provider, which can expose your WebDAV server in Android's storage framework. Of course I know that these solutions will never be as transparent and seamless as an actual fs mount, but for some use cases it's already quite capable.
>>106441470Nope. It's fully firewalled and degoogled and I don't use any app that came with the phone, only third party stuff, mostly from droid-ify.
>>106441426>le hecking potato man made me get the vaccine this is why I need communist spyware on my phone
>>106441026CHICKENSHIT BUREAUCRATS TELLING ME WHAT I CAN AND CANNOT DO WITH THE COMPUTER IN MY HANDS.
Can't wait when European Utopia dictators ban installation of custom operating system like Linux on our computers
>>106441662that's why windows 11 forces everyone to buy motherboards with TPM
>>106441186>Like protecting profit of capitalists?EU is also preparing for this big war with Russia.
>>106441662And replace it with what? EC rats cannot come up with an EU clone of Windows fast enough.
>>106441152The UK is not part of the EU you retarded mutt
>>106441717no, this is preparation for next deadly cough, to make most phones traceable
>>106441692TPM doesn't stop you from anything You can use a TPM under Linux if you had an application for it.
>>106441905Nah man you're on your own with that, can't resonate with antivaxx & maga folks even as joke, I'm not facebook boomer.
>>106442068How many times did you get covid after getting the "vaccine"?
>>106442068Take ze booster and die.
>>106442077I don't take covid boosts because my doc don't stock those and I'm to lazy to go to hospital, I do take flu shots every year. Being sick if poor people thing. Like I'm poor too but hate being sick so there's that.
>>106442128Mega retard
>>106442134Misread maga retard and was all confused kek.
>>106442128goodest goy on the planet. you’re definitely east of germany.
It's OK EU brosI'm sure the bastion of liberal democracy has a legitimate reason for mandating your freedoms be taken away.You all voted for it right?The EU bloc is much better than the dirty mutts and their "democratic republic" right?
>>106441186No, to protect themselves. They don't want people to get around THEIR illegal spyware.
>>106442173>10 years in jail for criticizing israellol
>>106442077poors are doing everything to not take the vaxx while my boss and his rich buddies back when vaxx was still not widely available did everything to cut line in front of sick&elderly be it by flying to US with military grade gas mask to take moderna shot with burger athletes & politicians or inject smuggled russian sputnik vaxx in dirty toilet of a bar on hungarian border. I took kung-flu bareback since I was too lazy to cut the line, my architect caught it in the same meeting as me and was dead 10 days later.
>>106442157not really, I'm balkanoid ex-yugo slav.
>>106442195yes, the balkans are east of germany. exactly what i said
>>106442245chill man why so emotionally invested. ok east east I get it.
>>106441026White people are satan
>>106442344Shitskins aren't human.
>>106441075I switched from NFS to SMB in my home network. NFS is a fucking mess. Needs access to the kernel, i.e. not usable with containers, shits itself, when losing connectivity, fucks with system shutdown, and on and on.
>>106441116>2014>ctrl+f 2025>0 resultsnice nothingburger OP
>>106442279im not emotionally invested, you just write like an eastern euro and have the sensibilities of an eastern eurowas just merely validating myself.
>>106441026nice fake news, but this is going in the list of things that 1) didn't happen and 2) make no sense to enforce.
Fake and gay, OP is a faggot as always
Fake news disinformation campaign coordinated by financial elites to scapegoat their push towards less user freedom>It was totally just the EU that made us remove features in our updates!Ironically enough I'm looking forward to the EU doing the exact opposite as it usually does - protecting consumer rights and tardwrangling pig corpos who forgot they're not in korea or usa
>>106441026The custom ROMs ended a long time ago, son.
>>106442173nothing happensshe'll get to the other side without hitting anythingempty cirno head, nothing in itbaka
>>106443112It's illegal to sell Mazda MX-5s and Suzuki Jimnys in europe because of laws like this. Take your booster, commie shit.
>>106441026I will keep not using phones for anything i'm not forced to
>>106443453oy vey those poor car dealers
>>106441026>Censorship of information? Check >Tyrannical control-freak policies? Check The EU appears to be on life support it seems.
I want to live in a good dystopian cyberpunk future, not a bad dystopian cyberpunk future
>>106441026This is a fake news article generated by ChatGPT that erroneously cites EU laws on radio equipment in telecommunications devices, which are otherwise completely irrelevant to the subject at hand. It does not talk about phone bootloader restrictions.Please ignore this AI-generated nonsense.https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg_del/2022/30/oj/eng
>>106443509>AM6 boards illegal to sell in europe>haha fuck the electronics stores
>>106441026>https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32014L0053&from=IT>Verification by radio equipment of the compliance of its combination with software should not be abused inorder to prevent its use with software provided by independent parties. The availability to public authorities,manufacturers and users of information on the compliance of intended combinations of radio equipment andsoftware should contribute to facilitate competitionWhat the fuck, the law is the opposite of the article is saying?
>>106441662>I can't wait to make schizophrenic scenarios in my mind and base my entire life decisions on them
>>106443705You would call me a schizo if i said that all the world governments would try to enforce digital IDs 2 months ago.The governments just decided to push the cyberpunk dystopia button using the weakest "think of the children" excuse i ever seen.
>>106441802Yeah, the EU is technologically completely incapable. It's a lot like an LLM in that sense:It imitates competent behavior, but in the current year this continent is a complete farce."We" have absolutely nothing, but pretend to be one of the "big guys".Fuck the EU. Fuck Von der Leyen. Fuck the absolute state of Germany.OP is still (probably) fake and gay.
>>106443736I would call you a schizo be ause European agencies are switching to Linux you fucking retard
>>106443791If we manage to get ProtectEU to pass we will literally have the most advanced security system in the entire fucking world.
>>106443791>he posted from a chip not possible to make without ASMLthe irony
>>106441925Now yes. But in few years they will make it like secure boot in android, and restrict selling unlockable devices.
>>106443791Europe has a lot of important tech companies like ASML >>106444112 but they are not as flashy. Maybe with the exception of Spotify.
>>106441026I'm never getting rid of my Oneplus 8.
