The ones on XDA have dead links or have no workable instructions. Anyone have a complete repository with proper insructions? My T220 was very affordable but honestly, it’s brutally slow. OneUI is too heavy for these resources. I don’t want Lineage, since it does not allow moving apps to SD.

A solid generic Android with Root would be just ((((chef’s kiss)))).

The device already has Developer options set to allow OEM unlocking and I have adb etc. on PC.

I hope someone has something good for me. Thanks.

      Yeah the weird thing is it can run smoothly on occasion but when you start doing things it slows down to a crawl in seconds. I stripped so much out of it via ADB and still the simplest things do such awful weigh-down, like even keeping zoom level at minimum the settings app won’t even paint itself and you have to use shortcuts to go to a settings page specifically.

      I want an Android that is as minimal as possible. I don’t need gaming hub or game optimization engine running but it seems to sometimes cause a problem if it’s disabled. Like they cross-referenced all these modules within the base elements of parts of the OS so disabling some things that are totally unnecessary can still break things in the foundation because from the development standpoint they always assume it’s all there. I’m not entirely positive of this, I could be mistaken, and I hope I am because it seems extraordinarily sloppy.

      This unit is an exercise in unrealized potential because of being bloated down by an unreliable overcoat.
