Thanks to Soundcore for sponsoring this video! I've been using the soundcore Liberty 5 Pro in the office and the ANC is genuinely some of the best I've tried...
Do you mean phones without unlocked bootloaders ? errrrmmmmmm you can’t
Check the LineageOS device suport list : if your device was ever supported, you cand build for yourself (provided you have enough horsepower), or request an unofficial build in the iodéOS forums
The wording on that table can be confusing; “Bootloader locked?” Yes/No is referring to the ability of Iodé installer and ROM to have that device bootloader re-locked after installation.
I can garantee you pretty much all of them come with a locked bootloader from the factory/shop (even if they have a “no” on that page), and it needs to be unlocked to install a different rom from the stock one. Doesn’t matter what flavor of Android it is. It might be that IodéOS installer is doing the re-locking immediately after and so you’d think it wasn’t ever unlocked, but it was.
Yeah, I took another look at it yesterday as I had worded it differently in my OP asking about it, and realised that it must be just presented incorrectly. I was wondering why I had asked differently.
For example in my OP I asked why the Samsung has “No” across the board, and above, I asked why the Motorola has “Yes” across the board. Maybe it refers to if the Bootloader can be re-locked.
I agree, i have been looking at it a while, but can’t figure out how it can install on non-rooted phones.

No, I am referring to iodéOS.
iodéOS official supported devices
For example the Motorola moto g32 (devon) is compatible with their installer, and has its bootloader locked.

Oh ok I didn’t even know that, given my device isn’t supported 🙈
