@nellePoint I had a op7t from china and it was perfectly normal, you could just install any regional OTA on it
did something change since then?

@nellePoint ah right, mine came with OOS
either way I got rid of the thing, lineage on it was ass for various reasons and I hated how huge and heavy it was

@nellePoint yeah lineage is cool, it's just that that particular generation wasn't very well supported
biggest annoyance was the under-screen ambient light sensor just not working properly because it needs a special algorithm to compensate for light that comes from the screen itself
I reverse engineered a huge part of it but eventually threw in the towel, someone else picked up my work and it eventually got merged, but only years after I'd switched to a pixel 4a that I am still using
