Help me out, Fedi:

I have a brand new Galaxy A15 5G. I want to start using it, but there's one small issue, which is that it's a smartphone in 2026.

Ideally, I'd put a custom ROM on it. Last I checked, though, that's not currently an option for this particular model (SM-A156U1/DS).

What I'm looking for is recommendations for the best way to de-Google it/make it less of a privacy nightmare/etc. If I'm wrong about the ROM thing, that'd be good to know, too.

Boosts welcome!

@aearo the currently supported Samsung devices from lineage can be found here. Sadly it’s not officially supported.

You could try using the android debloater and be vigilant on what to remove and make sure to not brick the device as an alternative until a custom ROM is available for your device.
