I am toying with the idea of buying the GS6 with Murena e/os, but there is very little information about this phone. I was wondering if somebody had tried it

    I bought at Murena three times so far, currently a FairPhone 5 with /e/OS and I am loving it.

    It’s not ideal as you’re replacing one cooperation with another and they essentially are saying “trust me bro” but if you are not very tech savvy with phones, like I am, its great!

    AFAIK /e/OS is basically lineageOS with microG and some preinstalled FLOSS apps.

      There are also a few extra features, like “Advanced Privacy” which is mainly a domain based blocker, blocking connections to undesirable servers.

      But mostly yes, LineageOS+microG.

      Hey, if you’re on e/OS v4.0 could you check if a usbc memory stick or any other USBC device you have on hand is recognised? Since v4.0 that doesn’t work here anymore. Would help me in sharing information with Murena. Thanks.
