A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Since we don't yet have a specific community for custom phone ROMs, let's discuss them here. Are you running a custom ROM? Which one? On what hardware? How is it?

I've been using CrDroid on my Poco F2 Pro (LMI) for a long time now , have also dabbled with Elixir , Nusantara and a few others which was fun, I love custom roms and tinkering plus MIUI sucks badly.

Also the mire I tinker the deeper I go, I made my first magisk module this year , git pretty good at debugging and root files etc , plus I can restore my phone pretty fast now (I brick it every now and then lol)

This year I also got into battery replacement , I switched out my battery and my camera module, and switched out a samsung s9 plus battery, was pretty fun.

I don't know anything about Magisk, but I really should learn. Replaceable batteries, or a battery that I can replace without totally destroying the phone, is a requirement for any phone I get.

Oh they aren't replaceable easily , I bought all the required tools and pried the phone open in order to replace them.

Where can you find camera modules? I had to switch phones as my last phone's camera got damaged by vibration. Everything else on the phone is in fine condition

I just got one on Aliexpress , since apparently the better Poco F2 Pro Zoom edition had a better camera that fit into the pcoo f2 pro so I just switched out the models and bam it worked.
