I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade my phone to Android 11 (god for bid Android 13/14) on my Samsung S9.

I remember back when I did this, back in 2020 I somehow installed Android 11, it must of been an update Samsung rolled out and I didn’t noticed until in December of 2021, I accidentally factory reset, yes, ask me how I managed to do that.

Just wondering if this is possible, as I know its not, and I know that the S9 is EOL.

    It also depends on whether it’s exynos or not. Qualcomm has been strong-arming Samsung into kindly locking their bootloaders.

      Yeah, my bad forgetting that. It didn’t affect me at the time so I kinda forgot it existed
