Is the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G (going to be) supported? The hardware appears almost identical to the other S10.

I am happy to read that.
I hope to read such good news for the Fairphone 4 soon.
I’m on hot coals and can not wait soon…
iodé on the FP4 is currently my biggest wish

Note10 & Note10+

Installation

  1. Update the stock firmware to the latest

Since January 2022, Android 12 is the latest stock firmware.

Is it possible to install iodèOS Android 11 build 20220126 for Note 10 (d1) and Note 10+ (d2s) without any problems or do I’ve to roll back to Stock Android 11 first?

I cannot tell on these devices (did not experiment myself), but generally it is required to flash back previous stock rom… Effectively, our flashing instructions are a bit unclear on this point and should be updated to mention “Update latest stock android 11 firmware”, or maybe a more generic formulation like “Update latest stock firmware of the same android version than the iodéOS build you want to flash”. Still a bit unclear though :wink:

I did not experiment, but immediately downgraded to last stock Android 11 and then without problems iodéOS 2.3 installed. The user is thrilled. Thank you for your commitment.

Hi, any response to your question ?

No, 5G is not supported and I don’t think that will happen (due to age).

Seems like linux4 won’t maintain lineage for the series 10 devices anymore.

What does this mean for Iode? Will there still be Iode 5 for this devices?

Nooooooooooo, I bought a lot of S10e for my folks recently with the hope that it’ll receive updates in the future. Anybody knows why linux4 stopped maintaining them? why but why… :cry:

Note that linux4 releases unofficial LOS21 builds for S10 Series on their website: https://lineage.linux4.de/
Maybe that’s something Iodé can build upon?

Bummer :pensive:

but from the statement it seems that linux4 will continue to develope privately and share access to “real devs”. I’d say that the Iode team definitely qualifies and hope that they can get access to at least keep the security patches coming, even if there is no more version bump for the S10 line :crossed_fingers:

Yeah would be great if the iode team could use the unofficial builds and still support the s10 devices, maybe even with android 14

That’s what iode do, normally… Still a long time I.e. for Monet
