Hey all,

Want to know what are my options for example, Lineage 18, or AOSP Android, or something else. The reason I want to do this is it has Android 5 and there’s just too much that won’t work on it. Also I want more control as in remove junk I don’t want, move apps to SD, etc. Not have stuff run and waste CPU and RAM.

If anyone has specific knowledge about this device and what’s the best option, or even tell me what any given option offers best, that would be very much appreciated.

    That’s an 11 year old phone, it’s time to move on, you’re not going to be able to run anything modern even with a custom ROM

    On top of that, Verizon and Samsung are notorious for locking down the bootloader hard and you need to be able to unlock that to have any sort of custom ROM

    Even a cheap Walmart 50$ Android phone will be better than the one you have
