Hey, all. I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7, and I would like to install a custom Android ROM on it. After a bit of research, my two options are LineageOS and Murena (aka /e/OS).
Does one have any advantages over the other? Or is it simply a matter of preference?
UPDATE: You will need a machine running Windows 10 or higher in order to successfully flash either ROM!
/e/OS is an anonymity focused ROM with a lot of advanced tools. Lineage is just a simple degoogled (though not completely) ROM with some welcome features. Choose what suits your needs better.
Anonymity focused, eh? What sort of features does it have?
I’m not the right person to ask this question, mister/miss.
Mx, please. Thanks anyway!
What in the world is MX? MX Linux?
It’s a title. Like Mr or Mrs.
What does it mean though?
Well, in this context, it was my response to you saying “mister/miss”. I am non-binary, so “Mx” (pronounced “mix” or “mux”) is a more appropriate choice.
It also goes at the start of a name, so my full name would be Mx. Hellfire One O’Three (using my username as an example, so as to not give out my real name).
I suppose you could use “mistrum” instead, since it’s gramatically correct; but this isn’y widely used.
You shouldn’t need Windows to flash it
You need Windows to run Odin. Fastboot doesn’t work for Samsung, and Heimdall hasn’t been updated for seven years.
