@pawlicker@pawing.lol @issotm@social.treehouse.systems Samsung doesn't allow us to support their devices. They either block installing another OS completely which they're increasingly moving towards or heavily cripple the device when using one. The main way they cripple the devices is disabling a bunch of hardware-based security features. Pixels support using all of the hardware-based security features with another OS vs. Samsung doing the direct opposite by permanently crippling security with a burned eFuse disabling features.

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social @pawlicker@pawing.lol Amusingly, I'm trying to figure out why a relative's Samsung phone is rejecting their SIM card, figured I'd adb logcat, and... wow that's a lot of logging for a device that's supposed to be idle. Including a whole lot of errors lmao
