Simple question really! Are any of you running a Custom ROM? Furthermore, are any of you running a De-Googled ROM?

Why do you run your custom ROM, and what are the drawbacks?

    I’m running lineage OS on my moto one 5g ace. Main reason was to upgrade it to the most recent version of android, since it wasn’t getting any updates beyond 11. No drawbacks here, haven’t run into any bugs or anything. But I’m also not a power user or anything, just trying to extend the life of my phone

      The charge port on my one 5g ace just gave up the ghost recently forcing me to buy a new device. I liked it, but it is rather heavy.

        That’s unfortunate :/ yeah mine is showing it’s age, and the headphone jack doesn’t work properly anymore. But it was a great phone while it lasted. Thinking about moving to the oneplus n30 or the moto 5g stylus

          Yeah, i moved to the OnePlus Nord N200 model DE2117 so i could run Lineage. I make sure any device i buy is at least Lineage compatible otherwise its a no go.
