I assume everyone on Lemmy uses GrapheneOS on a Pixel 7 or LineageOS flashed onto a LG Tribute with zero Google apps, and everything backed up via nextcloud running on a headless Debian Raspberry Pie?
I’m just a scrub using stock Android. Am I the only one?
Can confirm, Motorola makes some pretty rugged phones. I had my T-Mobile Revvlry+ (based on the Motorola G7 but different camera) for like 7 years.
After the power button literally took a shit, I opened it up to see if I could fix it. Somehow they managed to seal the buttons in an aluminum block, completely non-serviceable, so I just kept using it for another 6 months or so, using the charging cable to wake it from sleep.
Knowing the phone was on its way out (oh yeah I forgot to mention the busted screen), I backed everything up, got sick and tired of the thing, and broke it in half by hand. And oh boy that phone was tougher to break than I thought…
Eww.
LOL, you know what I mean, it stopped working.
Kinda hard to consider reviving the phone if the battery ever went totally dead after that, so I knew after I realized it wasn’t properly serviceable that it was on its way out anyways.
