Alternatives to LineageOS

They thought it's funny to have an April fools prank that permanently shows a non-swipe-able message warning the user he might be running unlicensed/insecure software, also installing a pseudo-"crypto-coin wallet".

For my phone, the build arrived today, not exactly making it an April fools joke, not that this would have belong on the fucking operating system level anyway.

I can now either mess around in recovery mode disabling the message, or wait a week for the next build, if the build is ready next week. If not, it's two weeks, three weeks?

So now I'm thinking, if these über-autists think it's fun to go into airplane mode randomly with "the halloween-build", i.e. all builds weeks prior and past halloween?

I can't have that. I have to have my phone working and not be subject to "pranks". I can deal with not having all the apps that are only available through the Google Play store, but not being able to depend on the operating system itself is a deal breaker to me.

Dirty Unicorns, Resurrection Remix, AICP, AOKP, whatever other ROM for your phone that doesn't have gapps dependency.

What level of trustworthiness one requires is subjective. For me, LineageOS is unusable at this point. It's a joke-operating system, to have fun on old devices you don't need anyway, but not for production phoness

Get over it you drama queen.

Look, if you want a joke-os, fine. You're probably unemployed anyway, so you can't miss any important calls anyway, no employees are going to be confused by stupid messages and so on.

But not everybody is a leech on society like you.

Flash the presious version.

If I have to second guess the upgrade process, then there is no upgrade process.

The "joke" didn't have any fucking impact on the functionality of the phone you stupid fucking nigger. So you wouldn't have missed shit.

I agree it was a dumb joke fucking with the OS. But you're being a fucking drama queen.

Imagine being so triggered over an April's fool joke

Dude, you're thinking of replacing a OS because of a April 1 joke.

Second guess? This is such a obvious and easy thing to do. Chances are you still have the previous version downloaded.
