What is the average screen-on time (SOT) of a Pixel 6a?

I tried the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, and both had seriously poor screen-on time (SOT)—barely making it to the end of the day, so I wanted to give the Pixel 6a a try. I plan to have both the display and battery replaced, as it currently has temporary compatible parts installed. My usage is fairly standard: social media, some light gaming (like Minecraft or Brawl Stars), and using 4G (or 4G+ at most, since my SIM isn't 5G-enabled). Is the average SOT of the Pixel 6a better than that of the other models, or not?

Phones with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 can support 32-bit apps.

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 still retained some level of support for 32-bit apps, and I wanted to know if phones like the OnePlus 11 and others could run 32-bit apps using LineageOS. Furthermore, I wanted to know if there are issues supporting 32-bit apps on early ARMv9 CPUs—such as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, 8+ Gen 1, and 8 Gen 2—given that I noticed that with LineageOS, only the Sony 5 IV (with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1) supported 32-bit apps, whereas the Nothing Phone 2 (with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1) did not, even though its stock firmware did. So, if I wanted to compile LineageOS for phones with ARMv9 CPUs and configure it to run 32-bit apps, is that possible, or are there firmware-related issues that would prevent me from doing so?

Why isn't the 6GHz hotspot working?

I have a Google Pixel 6 Pro and a Google Pixel 9, both running LineageOS. I wanted to know why the 6GHz hotspot is available on the Pixel 9, whereas the Pixel 6 Pro says it is unavailable in my country or region. I recall the Pixel 6 Pro having a modem capable of Wi-Fi 6E; is this a driver issue, or is it a matter of the modem itself not supporting 6GHz hotspots?

Will the Pixel 7/8/9 Linux kernel be updated to Linux 6.12, or will it be necessary to re-flash the stock firmware?

I recently discovered that Google will update the kernel of the Pixel 7 and above, as it did in 2023 with the Pixel 6 which went from Linux 5.10 to 6.1, and I wanted to know if my Pixel 9 to update the kernel to Linux 6.12 will need to reflash the complete stock firmware first, or will the classic OTA update of the lineage OS be enough

can i still compile a lineage os build for the pixel 7 that can still run 32-bit apps?

Possiedo un Google Pixel 7 e so che ha ancora transistor fisici per eseguire app a 32 bit. Volevo sapere se è possibile creare una build di LineageOS che li supporti ancora. Sapevo che la ROM stock di Android 13 aveva disabilitato il supporto a 32 bit solo tramite il file build.prop, ma non so se da Android 14 Google abbia compilato i driver proprietari solo a 64 bit. Quindi, è possibile creare una build di LineageOS con supporto a 32 bit per il Pixel 7?

Are the pixel 7 hardware drivers only 64-bit?

I have a Google Pixel 7 and I wanted to try to bring back support for 32-bit apps, I know that on Android 13 in the stock ROM the 32-bit libraries and vendors existed but they were only deactivated via software and with the magisk zygote64_32 enabler module they could be reactivated, but with Android 14 it seems that everything was compiled on 64 bit only, and I wanted to know if the Pixel 7 hardware drivers were also updated to only 64 bit because my intention was to compile an Android 16 ROM with 32 bits enabled or modify a VM to interface directly with the CPU

Is it possible to still run 32-bit apps?

I have old apps written only in armeabi-v7a, and I wanted to play them again on my phone, but my phone (a pixel 9) is obviously only 64 bit, so far I've tried a lot of things including modified translators like fex-emu and with root I tried to inject them but they can't translate from armeabi-v7a to arm64, so far the best result I've gotten was emulating android 4.4 x86 but it runs at 3fps and it's obviously impossible to run armeabi-v7a apps on it even though android x86 has the ability to do so... Are there any VMs for android that still read 32-bit apps?
