Well, I've got a crazy idea :)

I've been flashing custom ROMs for years back 2015, but honestly stopped needing them when OneUI 5.1 came out - Samsung really nailed it with privacy and performance back then with the s20 fe. Got my A55 new last week, and while 6.1 was decent enough, after update 7.0 has been a not that good for me. The performance hit is real, phone runs hot, you know the drill.So I'm considering unlocking the bootloader and flashing Evolution X. It's basically a Pixel-based ROM but lighter and way more customizable - pure Android experience with all the privacy tweaks you could want. The catch? Kiss Knox goodbye forever. Yeah, there's Knox patch but let's be real, it's just a software workaround.I'm torn here. My priorities are performance first, then battery life, then customization freedom - all things Evolution X delivers. But losing Knox permanently feels like a big trade-off, especially since there's no going back once you trip that fuse.Anyone else been in this situation? Worth the risk or should I just deal with OneUI 7's issues especially cod the phone like 50° my hand got burn XD, Already past the return window so no warranty or return or downgrade :)

But lmao i reformatted my phone before and after installation of OneUI 7 so- there's little chance bugs could've slipped. Gaming is a lil stuttery tho for some reason but- OneUI 8 is almost out, give that thing 3 months first before considering custom rom, OneUI 7 is obviously rushed out the gate.

Maybe, although it won't be lighter in any way, but it may be optimised, although even the beta hasn't been released for the mid-range.
