@electro1 Not sure if it's still the same thing, but you can toggle the OEM Unlock option for Nokia G22 in the Developer Options menu, in the settings.
@Blaze
Definitely not the same thing, flashing a custom ROM that was intended for a particular device into another, is a guaranteed way of breaking that device.
The OEM unlock option is worthy of something, yes, but useless if you can't find a compatible ROM for that model
Also Nokia is owned by Microsoft, so my rule still stands, I lost faith and I just don't trust them anymore

I wasn't talking about that at all. I just refered specifically about unlocking the bootloader. I know you have to find a specific ROM for every specific device.
So weird I cannot find one though. I bought the G22 because it just seemed the most affordable alternative to a Fairphone (i.e. you can change the battery and the screen if something happens, or the fingerprint sensor/lock button etc.).
On XDA there is not even a section for it.
No, they're not any longer. Since a few years already. They gave up their rights to the brand after their phone projects flopped.
Nokia is now HMD Global. Not sure if they are better though..
Sometimes that does nothing, like on the meta quest 3.
(Also, salut!)
@ultra Salutare, salutare! 😀
