Yes, which phone did you mean the OnePlus One or the Nexus 6P -- I don't think the ZTE will be wroth mucking around with. Both the better phones are probably good candidates if I could find the time to do it. I've got an S3 running a CM version that was supposed to be getting updates monthly; that stopped almost immediately -- people seem to move on too quickly. Would have liked that phone to get a bit more life. It's still good, nice screen and in very good condition, so it is not a junker by any means, but probably best suited to offline use or WiFi without any SIM. Cheers A.
