Gee thanks pops. Rest assured that if I decide to complain, it will not involve you. To anyone else, any word on being able to unlock with 9? What were your results etc. etc. ?
Update: 6.1 got upgraded to Android 10. This solved the problem of using dns.adguard.com (solves the ads problem and makes dnscrypt obsolete). Also, wardriving no longer requires root access.
