Would it be possible to install LineageOS on Samsung A53? It isn’t supported, but Samsung A52 is, and they are very similar in the hardware aspect. Even so, it may have compatibility issues (if I get it there in the first place). Could anyone help me? Any info is highly appreciated!

Thanks

    (Asking for a friend) The phone has already been mostly debloated (I have done a lot research about android applications and I’m not new to that topic). The problem is that he finds Samsung phones’ software ass and pretty buggy (same for me and that’s why I switched phones). If LineageOS can’t be used, are there any alternatives for A53 (none of the “good” ROMs support it)? Android app support is necessary and it should be well maintained. If you have any suggestions, it would be highly appreciated.

      I have looked at few of the ones I find attractive ( Elixir, PixelOS, Genesis… Etc ) sadly non of them supports the A53…

      Yes I agree with everything you said about the stock apps being buggy and trash, but you can still remove those and replace them with Fosify suite…

      Since it’s Samsung I strongly advice you (them, your friend) to not use a Google Account on that device, obviously no Samsung account either…
