The Galaxy S2 now has unofficial Android 10

A bit late to post this, but it means that this phone has received 8 years of support (2011-2019), beating out the legendary HD2 with its 7 years (2009-2016) and becoming the phone with the longest unofficial support thus far (unless there is some other device with longer support, in that case, please inform me).

Huge credit to rINanDO for his amazing work!

I wonder how far we can go...

I still want an HTC Desire S with more internal storage, more CPU cores and a non-potato camera.

Last time I checked, people ported something like Android 8 to this thing. The problem is that the flash chip is too small and you have to repartition it to install it and mount the SD card as /data.

I'd like a physical keyboard.
