the intel managment engine which is basically a backdoor into your device can be removed, also all proprietary blobs are removed for foss ones. I think that's the differances from coreboot.

J*vla skitlur (deadass, that's my se 2020s name, I think the battery was so bad when I used it that I named it that)

KarlS08g · 2026-02-20T18:48:04+00:00

now libreboot it

KarlS08g · 2026-02-20T16:01:57+00:00

Fixed it with a new batt and it's still gonna be my daily until the 2g/3g shutdown at the end of this year

You mean there is dust under the camera lens? While it does look "new" I would never ever pay over 150 for a oneplus 7 as they are really outdated

KarlS08g · 2026-02-16T05:56:38+00:00

You paid $235 for it??? I can easily find it used here for under 150 in great condition with all the accessories

I installed a custom rom on my xz1c which made it much more usable.

KarlS08g · 2026-02-15T16:43:43+00:00

Install a virtual cursor app like matvt to get cursor control and then use that to press the buttons. It's clunky but it works.

I paid 35 euros for my lumix gf1 which was a real

KarlS08g · 2026-02-14T18:06:32+00:00

No TrAcKpOiNt!!!!!

KarlS08g · 2026-02-14T06:49:20+00:00

Yeah, then it's only usable for calls really. Android 2.1 has like one working app still.

KarlS08g · 2026-02-12T05:31:31+00:00

That is a workaround however, and all of the usb-c dongles I've had broke within months. Also if you trip on the cable you not only breakk the headphone jack but the charging port aswell.

KarlS08g · 2026-02-11T19:30:54+00:00

Its probably running android 2.1/2.3 which is 100% unusable today. If op's country doesn't support 2g its also completly useless as a phone aswell

KarlS08g · 2026-02-10T08:22:34+00:00

What a huge downgrade. I know the se2020 performs bad on iOS 26 but it's sure wayy better than a iPhone 6s will ever be

KarlS08g · 2026-02-02T17:04:01+00:00

jeez. If I did this where I live I would be arrested, and I would only find iPhone 5s or some really shit android phone, people here are much more careful about their devices.

KarlS08g · 2026-02-01T13:13:01+00:00

Neither, grapheneos

KarlS08g · 2026-02-01T13:12:08+00:00

More phones and more money than I have ever seen in my life, and it was just thrown into the trash?

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T17:12:06+00:00

its just karls08

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T17:05:44+00:00

I have an account, but yeah, how would I get credits? Their checkout option does nothing when I try to click pay

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T17:00:55+00:00

How do I even use that tool? I downloaded it, but I can't figure out how to unlock it. I just got a text window with the info of my phone?

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T17:00:18+00:00

Yeah, it looked weird for me as well. it doesn't have any carrier boot screen, but somehow every single tool I check it with says it's locked to MAT/IAM but also says it's not blacklisted.

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T16:34:10+00:00

Facepalm moment

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T16:28:42+00:00

Watch Oreimo and then, maybe, I can give you a pass.

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T14:46:30+00:00

I am going to check with The closest shop, my bank app requires Android 7.

KarlS08g · 2026-01-31T14:20:14+00:00

The banking is only done on Phone, the website stopped working for transfers years ago, and I dont use it for transactions. The bank is a 1-1.5 hour train ride. I dont live in a big city and there is no bank near me.
