Can you elaborate on how it has been buggy? What kind of issues have you come across?

    The most annoying bug for me currently is the camera will sometimes just not save photos. It'll appear as though it has worked and then later when I go to look at the photo there's just no sign of me ever taking anything.

    The second biggest annoyance would be the touchscreen simply not working sometimes until I lock and unlock the device again.

    Finally we have the seemingly random lack of charging where I'll wake up some mornings to find it hasn't been charging at all despite being plugged in all night.

    There is an e/OS camera and another that came with mine. Consult the forums. I typically just use the one with the black icon. If there were not camera issues they might not have included both. It's important to support the underdog if you can stand it. If not, that's okay too though. The 3rd icon below is what I use.

    I don't particularly want to switch to /e/os. I've used CalyxOS in the past and absolutely loved it but I just want to stick with the stock ROM on my phones these days, even if that means having to use a little bit more Google than I'd like.
