I want to stop using Samsung. But I can’t install any custom ROM to my phone. My phone is Samsung Galaxy A51 4G. Is there a way to use Lineage OS via stable updates or any other ROMs.

You can use an unofficial LOS ROM, or GSI; there was a development in the past of PixelExperience ROM.

Thanks for your reply. I’m worried about Unofficial Custom Roms’ stability. Security updates, system updates etc. I saw an Unofficial LOS in XDA forum. But i dont know should i download it. Can you help me about it?

Usuall, you cannot trust it. You should not store an sensitive data on your and you need to assume your device may be compromised. That said, look out for the maintainer of the unofficial ROM. If it is someone who also maintains official LineageOS ROMs, it makes them much more trustworthy.

Thanks for your help. As far as I understood, I should look for unofficial OS from developers of LOS. I am not storing any important data on my device but, you know there is some accounts credentials and private chats. Nothings more. Out of title, do you recommend to use LOS for me? I’m already uninstalled all tracking, logging, bloating, spying softwares and packages via ADB. Then, gave myself root permission and configured Afwall settings. Do I really need LOS?
