@LineageOS @degoogle #degoogle I have two phones that I need to degoogle. A Samsung Note 5 and Huawei P30 pro. Lineage OS does not support either of them. Can someone recommend instructions on how I can achieve this. Basically degoogle, desamsung and dehuawei the two phones.
I would prefer Lineage OS but since it is not officially supported for these phones, I will settle for getting it done in stock ROM as well.

@nenos @LineageOS @degoogle The bootloader is locked but the phones are unlocked international phones, so not locked to a carrier. I am a newbie trying to learn so not sure how to unlock the bootloader.

@LordChaos82 @LineageOS @degoogle This might help: https://www.thecustomdroid.com/samsung-galaxy-bootloader-unlock-guide/ . Let me know if the link doesn't work, I can't figure out how to paste in Tusky, so I had to type it by hand.
