Should you really do it?
A mobile that is worth it would be the Galaxy S9, which is not planned to be updated to One UI 3.0.
Installing these applications is not as simple a process as it might seem, and it is not as simple as taking the APKs and installing them manually as they are system applications. In order to install them, it is necessary to unlock thebootloader Yflashthe required application package. In this way, when you restart the mobile you will already have the apps installed.
If this whole process sounds like Chinese to you, we already anticipate that you should not even consider it, since the unofficial modifications that you make start at your own risk. If, on the other hand, you feel up to it, keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader on your Samsung deactivates KNOX, an irreversible process that will permanently leave you without access to Samsung Pay. And all to test some apps that are being tested and that will soon arrive on your mobile.
Still, it is your mobile and you can do whatever you want with it, so if you are aware of the risks and consequences and they seem reasonable to you, you can download the files and learn about the installation process in the AlexisXDA thread in the forum. XDA Developers.
