My old Oneplus 3T is still working fine, but the /e/os it’s running is no longer being maintained for this phone. Are there similar alternatives that I can use?

I’d prefer not to have the whole Google ecosystem again, within reason, because Android of course, but I also want to safely and privately use the phone for as long as I can.

    It looks like someone is maintaining an unofficial LineageOS fork here. There doesn’t seem to be a lot out there, unfortunately. DivestOS being discontinued was quite a big blow to some of these older devices.

      Wow, that looks great, thanks! I did look on xda, but I missed this one because it’s in the OnePlus 3 forum and I only looked in the OnePlus 3T forum.

      Good to see that there’s still development going on for this device, and with decent privacy/security too, I like.

        Yeah I only found it by following links from an older (closed) thread which was posted on the 3T forum. Very easy to miss.

    I still have an unused 5T new in the box, and I was wondering the same thing… What other at least semi-modern ROMs were available…
