Hey y’all! So we are changing phone providers and they are forcing us into getting a new phone. I have an s23 which I hate anyway, and can get a pixel 9 or 10 now. I want the 9 since it seems better for me.
My question is, should I install graphene on it right away? I don’t wanna have to reset it again down the road. And I don’t care about warranties, if it dies I can afford another one.
Graphene seems to support the 9 and 10 from what I’m seeing
Edit Did some reading , it appears the at&t pixel 9 does have an unlocked boot loader ? Is it true ??
Might i suggest getting a used pixel from swappa or on ebay instead?
The one att gives you will most likely be carrier and bootloader locked for a period of 30 or 90 days i forget which but its fairly common for providers to do this to prevent folks from getting a cheap subsidized phone and then dropping the contract. So youll probably be able to flash graphene eventually but there woukd be a wait.
Alternatively a used pixel 8 or 9 will come already unlockable and ready to go and cost less too.
yeah i just don’t trust that it’ll be unlocked. i’m gonna keep my s23 and buy an unlocked pixel later!
