[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 85179, post: 869422"] Don't fall in false sense of Security. Your device is still vulnerable to all firmware attacks since the last firmware update (from OnePlus). Last firmware update is from October 29, 2017 ! LineageOS only provide latest Android security updates, not firmware updates which are the other - and mostly even more, important side. Also remember that you're device now have a unlocked Bootloader which mean that every guy who steal your phone, can do anything with it. Even if your data are encrypted. Also your phone now miss important security features like Verified Boot. [/QUOTE]
