They've said the bootloader will be unlockable so presumably Google services can be ripped out.

And hey, a status LED on a phone is something they used to have and has become incredibly rare. It's a useful thing.

Unlocking the BL is just one step...but would be great if.

And yes totally, I absolutely miss the LEDs. It's just so fucking sad that this shit is now " a great new feature" again. It should be the fucking default again.

Are you sure about that? I’ve seen that it wouldn’t be possible
