Funny how that's not needed when you don't break your phone and the thing works out of the box. No random reboots and resets like every US carrier branded phone where a custom ROM is a necessity.
Also if I need replacement parts all the mobile repair shops stock them in places I routinely visit.
Youre just too taken in by propaganda to admit the shit the US shoves down your throat isn't that great.
I need the ROMs to play with hardware in ways manufacturers and Google don't intend. I don't ask the manufacturer for permission, nor do I need to as source code and bootloaders are available.
I'm not willing to be a data point for profit, I don't give a fuck whether it's the shithead ccp or fuckbox google, my data stays on my phone unless I decide otherwise.
Can't do that? Again, proud of your weakest element. How strange. Enjoy your inferior phone.
