Script I used to clean preinstalled shit out of my brand new Samsung A40 (while there is still no LineageOS for it)

No, It does not remove Gapps. That would be a major step, which would break many core functionalities if there is no replacement.

I cant see any development on the lineage port to it, unfortunately. From discussions I had, it does not seem to be because of the chip, but mostly lack of interest from Samsung users.
Really wish it was different.

Thanks for the addition. Will add it as a comment on the code

I guess it's probably because there is now so many different devices from samsung... hard to maintain it all.
