Try ghost spectre. It's a custom windows that rarely gets update. I didn't has any problems even with cracked games. But then I left windows for Linux

If you wanna flash Android phone, or resurrect usb flash, then you'll NEED windows, I've been daily driving Linux for 8 years myself, but sadly, some specific software don't work under wine and if you run it in virtual machine then you'll never know what'll happen, may as well brick device you're flashing

flash android phone = putting another OS on it? I use grapheneos, installed from my linux tumbleweed.

ADB and Fastboot both run natively on Linux. I don't think I've needed other tools since the HP Touchpad days. And that didn't come with Android in the first place.

That does not sound like trash to me. I can see how those issues with Google connections are problematic for some users, but as the article acknowledges, lineage is primarily targeting people who want to update their old devices. Sounds like degoogling is best done with a different rom is all.

What manufacturer? If it's done through Fastboot then no, it's available on Linux just fine.

But of course, not all manufacturers use Fastboot.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
