Hi everyone,
I have an old galaxy note 8 that I would like to flash and get a Linux based OS on it. I recently put lineage OS on my galaxy tab s6 and it’s working great, but it looks like lineage doesn’t support the note 8. I heard about cyanogenMod but it seems like thats discontinued. I just have some games I want to play from the Google play store, so my needs are basic, so just having a simple OS for games that the devs are keeping up to date would be great. Thanks!
Try searching on XDA, there most likely is an unofficial build of LineageOS for your model.
Would an unofficial build be maintained tho? I’d like something that stays up to date with security updates.
Depends. But for your device it seems like they are pretty well maintained.
OK thanks for the help!
