As far as I understand this only concerns Google Pixel devices, and AOSP "coming to an end" is mostly speculation. Is this going to affect other manufacturers too, e.g. the Fairphone[1]?

Fairphone should still be able to get the source for Android from Qualcomm.

>>charci+p3
How?

>>hilber+o5
Looking at how it works for Wear OS. Qualcomm still only hosts the repos for the BSP and not the whole OS. It's expected to still get those from Google, from the partner portal.

> (BSP) is the layer of software containing hardware-specific boot loaders, device drivers, in sometimes operating system kernels, and other routines

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_support_package presumably. Never heard that TLA in my life and it's not like I've not gotten my hands dirty in Android

>>Aachen+I9
This acronym is somewhat known in Android device hacking communities that try to replace Android with Linux or Windows, because these communities usually deal with understanding the bootloader and Qualcomm distributes bootloader sources from what I remember in their BSP.
