My phone’s just bitten the dust and now I need to look for a new one again.
Thought I’d test the waters and see what kinds of phones people on here are using nowadays and what for, what features set them apart if any etc
Bonus points if anyone’s managed to get mainline linux running on them either via KVM or bare metal
Edit: Thanks for everyone who talked about their choices of phone, I am now writing this on a fairphone 4 and am quite happy with it so far.
Not even with magisk?
Don’t think so. There are three levels of google play integrity. With some magisk modules you can pass the basic level, and with more work you can get the mid level by manually finding fingerprints from other verified devices. But google pay requires the highest level, which can’t be bypassed.
I don’t use magisk so I am not sure, but I imagine not.
Magisk actually hides the fact you phone is rooted so Google wallet would work
My phone isn’t rooted, but maybe it could also hide the custom ROM? Idk, I got used to paying with a card and at least google does not get my spending habbits
