  • Not what youre looking after but- I use newpipe as a peertube client, but since it supports youtube as well you can search yt music specifically and download a track in up to a 128kps .m4a of 160kps .opus file. I then use vlc for android to play em, and it works just fine :3

    Some minor gripes is that these files seemingly dont come with metadata, and you cant download a whole playlist or album at a time, both being huge bummers :/


  • To unlock your bootloader you need to enable usb debugging and oem unlocking in the dev settings. The rest of the steps are done in fastboot; a secret menu. From there you need to connect your phone to a pc with android sdk and your phones drivers installed.

    Here it gets way complicated but the short version is that on the pc you use a tool called adb to make your phone go into fastboot. With adb you also ask your phone for a string, which you send to its manufacturer, who then hopefully sends a more different one back. That last string is then used to unlock the bootloader
