New OS for galaxy note 8

Android@lemmy.worldEnglish · 3 months ago

Hi everyone,

I have an old galaxy note 8 that I would like to flash and get a Linux based OS on it. I recently put lineage OS on my galaxy tab s6 and it’s working great, but it looks like lineage doesn’t support the note 8. I heard about cyanogenMod but it seems like thats discontinued. I just have some games I want to play from the Google play store, so my needs are basic, so just having a simple OS for games that the devs are keeping up to date would be great. Thanks!
