I need to buy a new phone. I had a onenote to set up but I fucked up the process and now it won't leave orange mode or charge enough for a proper fast boot. Essentially bricked. Because it can't charge faster than the battery drains and doesn't seem to support powered down charging. So, I'm stuck with an s21 that had the boot loader locked because Verizon is a PoS like that. I ordered an unlocked phone but I didn't know ordering from the carrier meant they locked the bootloader. I want to degoogle but money is tight.

It's the carrier's phone, not yours. That's how they offer such low prices.
