Hey, I got a old phone (Motorola e5 cruise) which has a unlocked bootloader. I though about installing leneageOS on it, but it’s not on the supported device, but similar Motorola’s are supported, what do recommend to do? I definitly wanna avoid the risk making it unusuable, but I would rly like to have a alternative AndroidOS on it.
They would’ve mentioned in the name if it was compatible with similar devices. Like my previous device the Xiaomi Redmi note 9 and the Redmi 10x was mentioned together in the name since it had exactly the same chipset. You are going to soft or maybe hard brick your device. Best thing to do is search the XDA forums for builds specific to your phone. If you do not find it I hope you are very knowledgeable regarding kernel drivers for your phone and maybe create your own os. Otherwise maybe search for which phone is really well developed for lineageos and has a lot of support and maybe save and buy that device
