verizon ver-lies-on

[prisma oyster]

Hey. I have a s20 fe 5g uw that I want to unlock the bootloader of, verizon supports tech "experts" seem to think a boot loader is a machine that picks up utility shoes. Anyway, I really need to root the phone, is there ANY hope of getting that to happen? Support was no help and I live in Poland so I am not able to go into a shop. The phone turns into e-waste without a fix, anything would help. OEM unlocking is missing from the settings and the device hides when I check for devices in fastboot to try and force flash firmware. Again, anything you can think of will help.

Free tech tip - verizon phones are utter e waste

free tech tip, trying to get support for a phone that a company does not even offer services in that country isnt a good idea

Should I get another pixel? Mainly using it for pentesting purposes, I am used to them so are they best or is there better?

[rare crag]

pixel phones have tensor chips which are made for ai stuff

[rare crag]

so depends any ai stuff involved

[prisma oyster]

No not really

I work with ai but on my pc bc gpu there is fast

[rare crag]

tho pixel is still very good for other stuff

[prisma oyster]

I either sell them and get a pixel or try one of the army of busted moto's that I have

My main phone is m33 5g, should I root it or is it a bad idea to root your main phone

[rare crag]

only root if u know what you do

[prisma oyster]

So yes then . . .

Mostly

Apparently not enough to prevent spontaneous combustion

[rare crag]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

for a good budget pixel go for pixel 7a

or the used market
