I have read about new devices so often, are there any news? I would love to use iodé on European made smartphones like the Gigaset GS4 or GS5? Are there any plans for that? Also an iodé Tablet would be a nice thing.
Is there an estimated date for new devices, I would like to replace my Samsung A5 with something more powerful?
Wrong! The bootloader can be unlocked quite easily, for example, like on a Google Pixel smartphone.
However, Gigaset refuses to release the stock Android firmware, which makes rooting and restoring to the original state much more difficult in the event of a case
What the iodé team is capable of is shown by the device support of Galaxy A5 2017 and Xiaomi Mi 9. These devices are currently not supported by the LineageOS Android distribution.
Also /e/ by e.foundation has a custom ROM in its portfolio for the Gigaset GS290 - without source code of the LineageOS Android distribution (LOS).
Voici une suggestion : continuer de faire évoluer un téléphone “étendard” déjà considéré comme “obsolète” pour les fabricants. Par exemple, upgrader le A5 2017 (un téléphone du siècle dernier pour certains !) en 3.X et montrer ainsi au grand public que cela est tout à fait possible
Encore merci pour la la qualité de votre travail !
