    What is your plan for when the EOL for stock updates comes (around this august iirc)?

    I think I might just flash LineageOS.

      probably start shopping for a new phone. The battery is dying and I’m not sure if it’s worth repairing.

      Does LineageOS not go EOL at the same time? I thought they followed the security update cycle

        I’m an advocate for fixing if you can, the phone still feels as snappy as it used to and I really like it’s size and weight.

        A new battery is as cheap as 7$ on AliExpress.

        Actually I am not sure what determines EOL for custom ROMs… Maybe it has to do with the firmware not being updated by Google? Although I read somewhere it has something to do with the kernel version - which I’m not sure why you can’t update?

        Maybe someone with more knowledge on the topic can enlighten me.
