Not on a Motorola though. LineageOS would be the alternative here

Have you tried to Clean it with a needle? Often its just stuff getting Into the port so the cable doesn’t fit anymore all the way

:/ HM that sucks. You could go with a phone with lineage OS support, not as secure but at least without bloatware from what I understand.

Or save and try to snipe a good deal on some marketplace

Are you in the EU? Because at my City the first used stuff store i went to had it. But maybe thats different in different markets.

I bought a refurbished pixel 6a for 200€ from a local store with 2 years guarantee. Using it since 3-4 years and am happy.

Maybe think about a used/refurbished one?

I am on the 6a with graphene and very happy.

Easy to do as well.

If you are on a contract phone it might be locked down (as in you can’t unlock the bootloader).
