Self-Hosting A Cluster On Old Phones

Jump

  • Yeah. I get it. It's good for old devices to be useful for years to come.

    What about the battery though? Having a device with an old battery plugged in the socket 24/7 is a fire hazard.

    I would love to use my old nexus 10 with this perfect screen today. There is still no way to use a mobile device without a battery plugged in...

  • Make sure to check for camera support. When I unlocked the bootloader from an old Xperia phone, camera performance was reduced a lot.

    Pictures were never the same after that.

  • Really? I haven't checked the scene recently! Wow! I have some reading to do!

    Thanks!

  • ... and again. Not the same.

    Do not get me wrong. I used to love custom ROMs since the days of android 1.6.

    But if I pay 500€ and more for a phone I would not risk to unlock the bootloader. For my specific device (Samsung A52s) the camera app does not even open if I unlock the bootloader using the stock ROM.

    Unfortunately it is not feasible for every day use. Camera, payments, netflix...

    For an old phone, yes. It's a good idea.

  • What about the camera? That's the only real problem for me.
