Fr he has professional editing and format of his videos too. I’m surprised on how little subs he has for his video style
perfectly reasonable for a pajeet
It's sad to say, but indian channels get basically no traction
@@karlsse totally deserved
first time watching an indian tech video that ACTUALLY was great to watch, amazing editing! subbed and liked :)
I find it good cause he's speaking in English
@@CenReaper. oh yeah nothing worse than being clickbaited by an English title and thumbnail only for the actual video to be in a different language
@@defnotatroll It's not really clickbait because reading and writing in English is kind of ingrained in India. 99% of regional languages videos with an English title don't have an intention to clickbait anyone.
@@yahyahasan1554 yeah I know the intention probably isn't clickbait but it is clickbait if you don't understand the language
Yes, I totally agree! Superb editing, smooth english and mainly, accurate content. No clickbait, just facts, correct facts I must say. I've been in the custom ROM community for some time now and I agree with almost everything you said. Keep up the good work, you've just earned my subscribe!

I know this video's about Galaxy S6, but seeing the Oneplus One reference brings back a lot of memories. Although I never owned one, I heard great reviews from people who had it. I owned a phone called Yureka, which played a, I'd say a big role in Oneplus bringing its OxygenOS to the global market. That phone was a custom rom beast.
i want to get the OnePlus One, it's such a good phone
@@Sankewtry one plus 5
Man, your editing and speaking made me shook. Hope get more subs and reach 100k before this year.
Your mistake was running an android version that high on such an old phone. Android 11 would work much better on this phone. I can tell, because on my Galaxy J7 2016 with 2GB of RAM I was using Android 10 64-Bit ROM and it was running just fine.
True
that's awesome to know. I honestly didn't know that you could actually download custom roms in your smartphone before this video, and it got me thinking if I could do it on my J4+ !! this phone is sooo slow, you think I should try installing a custom ROM on it or is it too dangerous?
@@leonecore do what you please but know theres no going back
J series cannot fight with s series.
@@enriqueyang it cannot, but the argument meant that if a weaker phone can run a higher than official version but not by too much, then the same can be applied here.
Custom ROMs rock. My Pixel 6 pro got screen damage last week. Had an old Redmi Note 10 Pro lying around. Flashed latest LineageOS official build on it. Works like a charm. Don't root your phone and all banking apps will work. Its so smooth,stable and has so many features compared to my P6pro (Headphone jack, dedicated dual sim + sd card slot, IR port) that I don't think I will be getting my P6pro fixed right now. Custom roms make a lot of sense for phones as long as you don't go overboard and root your device. My Galaxy tab s2 from 2015 still gets monthly security updates. Also Pixelexperience devs have started Pixelbuilds, so its not really dead...
fyi, the Pixel experience project is dead. You need to install another rom to get the latest updates. Android 15 wont be coming to Pixel experience project.
I'm using a Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G with LineageOS 21, rooted with KernelSU and I've yet to face an app I can't use due to root (for example, with Magisk I had issues getting the ChatGPT app to work no matter what I tried, but with KSU it works well)
Flash genesis os
How can I do it?
Pixelbuild?
Another dev from pixel experience make the pixel project rom 😄
you're underrated man, keep it up!
For camera, use a Google Camera port. Its basically Google Camera from the pixel devices ported to be compatible with other android devices. It enhances the image quality since its using Google's HDR+.
S6 edge plus where’s my absolute favorite phone ever… excellent camera, lightweight, amazing design…. still have mine. I don’t use it but it’s a piece of art.❤
The fone is really beautiful to hold and behold😊
@Deekraftz I literally have mine in front of me right now, I don't have a use for it besides putting it on display so I think I'm going to sell it. Holding it and my s22 ultra it feels way more premium. Much thinner
Seeing a 16:9 screen is so bizarre nowadays. I lowkey miss it ngl (Shoutout to designers of Nexus 6 and Lumia 1520)
I miss it a lot.
I haven't gained absolutely anything from the "borderless" design here, cut corners, camera hole in the screen area and wider than the content screen.
Some trends really don't gain anything but you gotta push 'em for marketing reasons.
@@Kalvinjj I agree with this so much! The Google pixel 8 has one of the least annoying Camera notches so that was one of the reasons I decided to go with it but I would honestly much prefer the 16:9 bezeled screens of back in the day. I constantly touch my phone screen when I'm trying to get a good grip on it causing me to not be able to actually do what I'm trying to do until I readjust my grip. It's so annoying. Usually, this leads to me not actually having a good grip on my phone and I drop it constantly. Not only this but RUclips content is always going to be in 16:9 usually so I don't even use the entire phone screen when I'm using my phone for the thing I use it for most. It's pretty much a waste. And if I want to use the whole phone screen I've got to zoom the content in to where it cuts off a bunch of stuff. I much preferred when I used the whole screen and didn't have something getting in the way. I also preferred having haptic navigation buttons instead of software buttons that we have now. Any and all of the under the screen fingerprint sensors that any current Android manufacturers use have nothing on the physical touch ID that apple had and still has on Mac devices.
One of my favorite phones was the Motorola built Nexus 6. It had a pretty massive 16:9 display (for it's time anyways). Made watching videos so enjoyable, especially compared to modern 20:9 phones. So much wasted space, the Nexus actually ends up having a "larger" display when viewing 16:9 content.
@@OnTheRocks71 that's something I thought of too. Just scaling it up to have a larger 16 by 9 screen is totally possible.
@@papasivir4241 If someone could manage to make a 6 inch, 16:9 phone with front facing speakers at the top and bottom, a rear fingerprint scanner, and modern qualcomm SD8 chipset/5G and modern Android; I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Bhai, your content doesn't feel like coming from a 11k subs channel, you are on the way to a million subs. keep up the good work!
Nice vid! I'm running android 14 on Galaxy A8 (2018) and the experience is pretty good. This phone can now last another 3 years easily with a battery change😁. I'm also running Evolution X custom rom (Android 14) on a Xiaomi CC9 (Mi 9 Lite) as daily driver. It is super stable
If you used the oneui 6.1 version u will get the new photo processing algorithims from the s21 ultra on the s6 edge.. it will take a bit longer to process photos tho.. but results will be better than stock camera.. i think a video on that rom is a good idea.. no need to use the phone again just show us the rom and its features
Where can I get oneui 6.1 for S6 edge
Its pretty good as a secondary phone as you can have your banking apps on your main smartphone.
This video was awesome, keep it up my man
Man I just discovered your channel and I loved it. I thought you had more than 100k subs but to my amazement you are at 11k.
I am pretty confident that you'll get a lot of subscriber coz your content is good. ❤lot's of love!
Tho the Xiaomi ad💀
Yo
This was something new . Keep the hard work ongoing and you make your brethren proud. And you're a lot younger than I , keep it up.
I don’t understand why you have an obsession with Rick astley
Maybe a reference to Arun? (Mrwhostheboss)
cause he will never give up😂😂
@sankew damn 😂

Oh
That’s ironic because mrwhosetheboss is my favourite RUclipsr
Nice vids and edits by the way bro chill no need to rush with the dialogue own ur channel be a boss
one of the only indian tech youtubers whose videos dont feel like a 20 minute ad
never in my life have i seen such an underrated channel
My dad used a S6 edge until last year. After a factory-reset, the phone was very smooth as it was well maintained. In my opinion, its a good phone.
okkkk so bro youre PERFECT for a live action spiderman
For the camera you can use LMC with hasselblade preset
Love the editing! Subscribed!
Crazy howphone looks just as good as "modern" phones
The thing is right, knox only exists on samsung devices. But even without root u would trip google's new integrety API, with root u can bypass (meets_device_integrety, meets_basic_integrety but not meets_stronger_requirement), the last one is reliant on the status of the bootloader and not even with a fuse these days. But I would say that it's a strong conflicting matter because it mostly depends on the rom that you're using and what signatures the rom has been signed with. Example EvolutionX for my Redmi Note 8 Pro is signed with a test key where google services won't work at all (unless u have the ability to change rom signatures within the rom is pretty limited at most and will never be perfect) and yes I agree root will be always detected unless you mount it specifically for a certain app using kernelsu, magisk would leave files behind.
I personally would say that rooting and having a custom rom is pretty much only benifitial of you have a budget phone, since the budget phones of XiaoMi only get around 2-3 years of software updates and maintenance. But for a flagship custom rom is only benifitial after the EOL has been reached.
But overall I would say, keep up the good work and I see you in the next video!
1:59 HES RICKROLLING US
Underrated channel. I know you will do good in content creating!
Man, this video reminded me of how deep into Custom ROMs I was back in the 2010s - I had an LG Optimus 2X (that briefly showed up on screen at 6:24, hah)
Bro seriously made the best and fastest tutorial on how to put a custom rom on your phone!.
Watching your video for the first time. You just got a subscriber!
Dude thumbs up on your editing and storytelling, it's a bit rushed for my taste but it's really well done!! Congrats!!!
I am a LG G3 user in here. I use it with LineageOS and wow i was really impressed that these phones still perform up in 2024, i even edit videos using it too.
Yeah i would definitely say the Samsung S6 edge will be worth it in 2024 with that ROM.
yes, these phones are very capable
@@Sankew Yep i agree on you. This is way better than new budget phones which breaks easier plus with a low quality screen (Because of their screen resolution is only 720p which is very outdated for 2024) while these Flagships have 1440p.
Both the LG G3 and S6 have really good displays compared to a lot of Low End Phones
@@Sankew Yes and i was amazed that my LG G3 looks close to a AMOLED display when it was actually True IPS display according to LG
@@NathanYellowStarProductions how did your phone didnt get that bootloop issue. My aunt had lg g5 and it bootlooped
6:51 I agree. Rooting has become Needlessly complex and very annoying. 🙄 And the benefits are not that much.
Bro u r really underrated and should be in great heights 🎉
How cool! I had an S7 Edge and I adored that phone. It was such a different design for that time.
10 missed calls from Tesla everything phone 😂😂😂
Hair gets crazier
You're right on several things.
Custom ROMs aren't as appealing as they were 7-8 years ago.
Back then, flagship androids only got 2 years' worth of software updates; and custom ROMs helped bridge the gap between software support and hardware performance.
Nowadays, phones are receiving up to 7 years of software updates; who needs a custom ROM now?
Also, the various UIs of most android phones have become more and more customizable; even Google's stock android has theming options now.
As it is now, I can confidently say that custom ROMs should only be installed on phones that are 9 years old or older.
I had the flat version of this phone back in 2015 , it's screen quality is way ahead of it's time
Still can't believe that this is an Indian Tech video that didn't make me wanna close it asap.
Thank you for showing the reality of Custom ROM, great video by the way
Absolutely beautiful video. Loved this idea 👍
made me wanna buy one and flash a custom rom on it ong
This whole video feels like if Monium made a tech review because of all the goofy ahh sound effects.
Great video, I loved your editing ❤️
this is why android is better than ios. you can't revive a legend with ios.
have you ever used iphone ? as android user ios far is better than android except iphone price
@@thunderx479 android lets you do basically whatever you want, ios only lets you do things the way apple wants
You don't need to revive an old iphone, old iphones work better than some new androids
@@deadgoldenheart9560 what new android phones are you talking about then

unique topic and great editing, subscribed
Niceeee bro im right now typing on a romed samsung tablet now running android 12
I left Samsung coz they’re just so bad at performance and the software feels laggy after some months of usage plus I couldn’t install roms in Samsung but I’m surprised how easily you flashed the rom 😂
Great video
It’s gotten harder with newer phones tho 🥲
@@Sankew my old samsung phone just needed to turn on the oem unlocking option and pressing the volume up and down would show the "unlock bootloader" screen. I wanted to do stuff to it but the touch screen failed and graphical glitches were happening.
Mrwhostheboss quality in my opinion same for info provided hope you're Chanel grows big
Omg so well edited
Excellent video, you have a future bro, greetings from Mexico!
I thought you had at least 400k subs! So underrated, bro.
Bro ur making my dream come true 😅😂
This phone was fuckin beast of it's time😘😘😘.
"edge" ☠️
Great video btw
I use Narzo 50. But I was too disappointed in the software section. Then I flashed in PixelOS then... I fix my software related problem and also get unlimited storage backup!!! Even I get amazing pictures shots using this ROM..
The edge screen was underrated in its time
Up until a week ago, I was using my Pixel 3 with LineageOS installed. You can hide root and there are Magisk modules to pass 2/3 safetynet checks (impossible to do all 3, you need to have your bootloader locked which isn't possible in this case).
It gets through all apps but 2. One I had to solve by installing the latest version that didn't have a timebomb _and_ strict checks. I could have done a similar thing with another as it didn't even have checks before.
One thing I can say is, if you don't mind tinkering around, installing a custom ROM can be a good way of extending the usage of your phone.
i custom romed my galaxy note 8 with lineageos 20 and its working really great
You can have gcam installed it improves the camera quality very much 😊
I see so much potential cashew guy 😜🔥🔥
We need same video for Samsung S8. I'm sure this won't disappoint you
I do have one, probably a future video
@@Sankew Im waiting btw your explanation is very easy to understand and make for s10, im currently using that
great video bro... just subbed, btw do the newer samsung phones get slower too? I was thinking of buying the base s24 (has exynos here in india), I am just obsessed with its aesthetics, but I'm afraid if it will be a bad purchase, should i just wait and get an iphone instead?
In my experience, I had the Exynos Galaxy S20 for about 3 Years, it did slow down as time went on, but not as bad as older Samsung Phones
the Exynos 2400 is pretty good tho
@@Sankew thanks i just loved the looks of that phone haha... might be a stupid reason to buy lol
@bleedproc I too like the simple nature of the S24
To fix Play Integrity you could have rooted it and installed "fix play integrity" module in magisk.
Btw great video!
❤❤❤ good videa as always sankew
Nice vid bro!
What’s happening with custom roms in 2024 is the same thing that’s happening with Jailbreak on iOS, there are less and less reasons to do it because Apple has added pretty much every feature people jailbroke for.
true
and many phones are offering near stock android experiences like pixel, nothing, motorola, nokia, etc etc
Bro you got yourself a new sub❤
This confirms my theory. Rubbish & bloated software is what kills the hardware usability. It's not age or mhz.
Average sankew vid 😂❤❤
10K in one month? Buddy u deserve in 1M in one month 🤩
6:24 man, I truly forgot just how horribly some of those skins have aged, like the LG phone. HTC Sense on the other hand was always so nice and intentional with its design, even if it looks quite dated today.
Sense was one of the best back then
One video enough for me to sub amazing content
You can unroot the phone after installing the custom ROM, If you want to use banking apps, I had done that long ago and it's working perfectly fine.
Have you installed Gcam?
This phone was sick when I had it, loved using it and modding it when it was still a new phone
You can also get around the banking apps...i used to do it all the time. Your phone is rooted now so you can definitely do it.
Try using an S7 edge
That's what i like about samsung phones, usually, at least for the S line, custom rom support is very good. On my S7 i found an debloated and deodexed OneUI rom that gave me better performance and battery life than stok android while keeping the camera and audio processing stuff, i was stuck at android 9 but i did not care because the phone would still be very good to use.
Congratulations you hit 10k🎉
HOLY! I ve thinking a lot what to do with my S6 Edge. Not to use it as my daily driver, i have a fantastic Pixel 6a, but to get creative and experiment. Android 7 is sooo slow, even after factory reset and minimal graphic animations. I think ill give Lineage a try (which is not "OFFICIALLY" supported, but like i see here, it should work)
You deserve 2 million subscribers!❤
I never really got my hands dirty with custom ROMs when it was popular. I was curious about, but never got past reading stuff and watching videos. Honestly, though, with my current Samsung I never even felt the need to install a launcher. It offers plenty of customization for my needs. I've played around with Good Lock, but there very few features that I actually care to use. Looks like they might extend the security support past the promised 4 years too, so I'll keep the phone a while longer if they do.
Next galaxy j7 nxt
😂literally my day life without a good camera to create a yt video..hope i'll be there soon
You have earned a sub, a lot of people who (I’m not being racist or racially insensitive I’m just saying what is true) you have pro editing and also most Indians or non English speaking videos, it’s quite hard to watch, but your videos were just like the large channels. Honestly I love your videos and how your content isn’t hard to watch
s6 edge design is looking so premium even when its old...
You are the first ¿indian? youtuber that I've watched a video till the end. Amazing video.
This channel is so underrated ❤
I recently flashed Android 7 on Samsung Galaxy duos... Which was on 4.43 earlier... Guess what it is one step closer to heaven...
Discovered a w channel
Custom roms make a lot of sense for older devices....im currently using linesge os on an old samsung m series of mine...and its much better than one ui cuz its lighter...performance and battery life is soooo good
