I am going to attempt to put LineageOS on a Samsung A52 today. Other than the instructions on their software page, anyone got a good tutorial video to also use? #degoogle #LineageOS #SamsungA52 #tutorial

@jellycrystals Their instructions are quite comprehensive and well written. You'll be fine even without the video. Just read them before starting so that you encounter nothing unexpected. Years ago I flashed an Xperia XZ3 without prior reading because I live dangerously. Works till this day.

@grzegorz Good to know! I have followed many written tutorials before (mostly homebrew Nintendo and PSP modding) and never bricked anything, and this was just a house phone so no issue if I ruin it. Still just wanting to get it right.

@jellycrystals
Now the questions start. Do all the functions work? Did you install GApps?

@tip @grzegorz I am working through some things. Managed to get Gmaps to work again! Plans for this phone are a glorified MP3 player for now. My bank app does not work unless installed from G App store. So this one is a play phone. Any good app suggestions?

@jellycrystals @tip I'd check FDroid. There's some really great stuff there. AntennaPod for podcasts (streaming and local), Voice for audiobooks (local), Phonograph and Vinyl for local mp3s, Nova Media Player is a local video player with a VOD-like UI, Tubular is really great for YouTube. I use all of them except for Phonograph and Vinyl which got replaced by Finamp after I put together a home server with Jellyfin.
