Parallel to my thread about Google making sideloading a nightmare, this thread is to keep that one on topic and discuss here.

I've been thinking about the above situation and how I may move back to Pixel (until Google dosables the unlock unlockable bootloader..)

With that said, I wanted to see if there's interest in a bounty of sorts for a reputable developer to pick up where HASHCODE left off. Safestrap.

For those not familiar, Safestap was TWRP but with multiple boot slots. You could keep stock but have numerous other ROMs at the same time. It basically created a sandbox so you could test ROMs fully without wiping your existing system.

I miss it, HASHCODE said it was device specific at the time and was not going to continue developing it. With Pixels as popular as they are, I think the user base and dev incentive there would be worth it.
 
Most that would be interested is pixels and Chinese phones they like to Root and change things up . My pixel 10 pro xl is unlocked with a unlocked bootloader if i choose to in developer settings under OEM unlock but I've out that game for awhile.

Pixel is the demographic I'm targeting. I might jump ship if Google doesn't pull hard to to starboard on sideloading.
out of my league ;)
Mine too lol that's why I'd like to gage interest and see if theres a reputable XDA Dev willing to taken it on
I haven't done anything with custom ROMs for over 10 years.
As have I. It would be like learning all over again but might come to that if Google doesn't reverse their sideloading decision. If anything, a Safety Safetynet resurrection might be perfect. Boot stock OS for apps that won't run on custom ROMs and boot into a secondary for anything FOSS or otherwise.

Man, I'm so far removed from the game, I have no idea what any of this even means LOL.

I used to stay up all night playing with all that stuff. Now I am too old
