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.

I think it just suck at multitasking due to shit cpu. I noticed the moment i tabbed out from a video player mid playing it starts to lag.

Yeah. I disabled most of the thing and it still lag. I had to reduce animation and transparency. Change the launcher too. Its better than stock but it really gets on my nerves knowing modern devices can still get this lag out of the box.

I’ll tell you I think with this specific device it’s just poor planning but there are plenty of bottom rung devices that suck because yeah, they’re made to be worse than all the other devices by that manufacturer in that product line. Manufacturer ABCo wants you to buy their product. They want everyone to have their product and no one else’s. But there’s a price level that’s below anything they make, and so, in order to still get you to buy their brand, they market this bottom of the barrel quality product for just this kind of scenario. They can’t make it good because then why would anyone pay for the next tier up? So they make it appealing-seeming, but sucky enough for you to eventually want something better. And then they’re hoping you’ll buy one of their better products.

But with this device even without multitasking, just browsing the web in Firefox is sometimes so bad that I tap the address bar and it takes like 5 seconds for the keyboard to come up.

So yeah… when I bought this I had in mind that I would mod it in whatever way possible.
