    I like it when I use Ableton Live.

    I can load any of my projects and everything is running exactly how I left it. Any issues I’ve had have been down to 3rd party plugins.

    I’m fortunate in that this is the only thing I use my MBP for, other than accessing music stuff on the internet using Firefox with uBlock, which is synced with my phone.

    It’s not logged into Apple ID, and I bought it used. So there’s no money paid to Apple and as little data as I can give them.

    It’s my hobby, but if I were to do it professionally I would do everything exactly the same. Except I would buy the machine new.

    Hi, I’m a very low level Android user so forgive me if this is incorrect. I’ve seen references to use init_boot.img instead of boot.img

    This is just from scanning around XDA this year and could well be irrelevant, but it may be worth double checking.

    I wanted a OnePlus 12R and was checking the OP forums generally to get a feel for bootloader unlocking and custom ROM availablity.

    I hope this helps.









  • I would not swap my 12R for an 8a, no way. Screen size and fast charge are more important to me than anything the Pixel offers.

    The compromises are less important to me. Camera, flat screen, availability of ROMs and all that, are probably the biggest. I can live with the camera, it’s fine for normal stuff. The curved screen can be annoying but only very occasionally. I can live with it.

    There are already custom ROMs for the 12R. The process isn’t as straightforward but I don’t use them until official support ends. By then it’s likely to be smoothed out, along with the compatibility of things like Gcam.

    I think the 12R is well worth considering in it’s own right as a decent phone. As an alternative to the 8a, for me there’s no competition.

    YMMV.
