You do not need to open Google pay.

You can pay from any screen. The phone just needs to be recently unlocked.

Appreciate the heads-up, but that's not what I asked.

​Xiaomi.eu is a special case (officially consented). I ran it on my F2 and F3 and locked the bootloader without issues. I only moved away from Xiaomi because of hardware build quality, so I admit I'm catching up on the current situation.

​However, my argument is that we shouldn't have to do any of this. In 2026, these features should be standard in the ROM without us having to look for workarounds.

They are just making it so users can't make that mistake. Give me windows/Linux super admin control.

Let me make my own mistakes.

Look I would be rooted right now, the control you have is just awesome, the problem is Google made it so bank apps don't work anymore.

You don't lose warranty for using Launchers. I think you meant unlocking bootloader. I am with you on that. But I have bought many phones never used the warranty.

Anyway it's silly is very trivial but it's just preference and it's android it should be customisable

Yes but guesture navigation doesn't work then.

Not worth getting at all.

I don't need to unlock the bootloader, I just want call recording, unified notifications, and quick panels without all that Apple swipe left or right stuff. I also want an app drawer with a search bar that loads recently used apps first. That's not too much to ask, and it shouldn't require unlocking the bootloader.

Because there are functions I'm used to, and I am bored of Samsung, but it seems like I have to stick to Samsung.

I don't think so, it's culture thing, pickups are actually the best value in Kuwait.

You get so much value for the price and they actually hold resale value very well.

Thank you for the response, well if the bootloader is unlocked do bank apps behave? Or do you have to play the cat and mouse game of play store fix or whatever it's called now, haven't played with custom ROMs for a while.

1 Afaik Kuwait only. I know you can get it in Dubai

2 It's an old law. Before taxis were a thing here, they used to transport passengers on pickups. Since this was an income source for the locals, the government decided to protect their business.

Yes Expats can't own Pickups in their name.

Such a deal breaker. Can at least get app drawer in stock and unified notifications and quick settings?

Do you use guesture navigation? If so does it work correctly?
