Android 10 for Razer Phone 1


Hello everyone.

I saw some posts about the Razer Phone 2 and Android 10, but I have not seem any Razer Phone 1 relevant Android 10 posts.

Does anyone know anything about it?

I know RP1 is not the latest model but it's pretty good and capable of running Android 10 just fine, right?

hmm i believe android 10 is available to razer phone 1 through official lineageOS and will be coming soon to the razer phone 2 aswell in a couple months.

this is a custom ROM though and unlocking your bootloader voids your warranty 🙂

Yeah, I was searching about Android 10 and Razer Phone and I saw that LineageOS. Pretty interesting, it's the "new" Cyanogenmod. Sadly, it's still in beta, though.
Happy to know that there is an alternative for Razer Phone users.
Sadly, I don't have any warranty, even if it was within the warranty period. I bought this phone at US but I live in Brazil, so I could not benefit from it here. So I don't care unlocking my bootloader if Android 10 does not come for Razer Phone.
I just got the July security patch.
Razer forgot about his first phone, there is no update support lying down, nothing has been going on for a year. Linden.

Do you have a Razer Phone 1?
I just checked for updates here and got nothing.

Yea, that's pretty sad.
I got so hyped with this phone, bought it due to an one shot opportunity (a friend went to USA and bought for me, since I couldn't buy from Brazil).
Then a few months later the price was cut down to almost half of the price and with the new Razer Phone 2 the price went down even more.
So now I got an "old overpriced phone" (which has been devalued alot) without any new updates.
Yes, I have Razer Phone 1. I checked the latest update released in November on Android 9.

That update was for the RP2 not sure why TT posted about it here.

the RP1 is technically EoL at this point so I would think Android 10 isn't going to happen so I would flash Lineage and not look back.

Yea, I figured it out. I checked my phone, my security update is from November 5, 2019 and it's "up to date".
Sadly, I think RP1 won't get any more updates as well.
I will certainly try out the LineageOS.
I just wanted to be sure that RP1 won't receive Android 10 before doing it.

There's nothing from Razer to say it won't get it but at the same time there's nothing to say it will. the RP1 got 2 major OS updates which is what Android devices normally get so it would be safe to say Android 10 wont come.

FWIW Lineage OS is in a very stable condition on the RP1, I have it on my personal device and haven't had issues par with the fact some Gapps won't flash.

Hmm, yeah, you are right. Makes sense.
Interesting. Good to know that it is stable. I just checked and there is a brand new version available, from not even a week ago. That's pretty cool.
I'll definitly try it.
Thanks for the infos!
Cheers
I'm a RP1 user, have been waiting for the Android 10 update long ago. BTW, how do you guys flash custom ROM? Is there any link or YouTube that I can learn? So, this LineageOS is what good about? Please share your experience, appreciated

Hey, mate.
Just check LineageOS website, there is a well explained step by step guide there.
This is the wiki for Razer Phone (aka cheryl): https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/cheryl
How's Lineage 17.1 been for those that made the jump. I see it's been getting weekly updates. Any known issues? Is the mic still not working on video calls? I use Viber a lot so tht would be a problem for me. Basically, just still debating making the jump from stock or waiting to a bit to make sure once I do it'll be a seamless transition.

As far as I know, it's pretty stable.
I'm might sure there is a known bugs section at LOS website.
There is also this website which also have lots of info for RP and LOS.
You should check them out.
