I completely agree! But just to check for a certified android without even looking at what apps are installed is just worthless. I know that it is bitter reality.

I'm using Lineage myself and completely agree on that point. However, also @EskeRahn is right in that "certification" of a software does not necessarily mean that the software in question is technically superior to any other. It just guarantees that it fulfills the requirements of a certain defined standard in terms of configuration and behaviour. Technically, my self-built LineageOS 16.0 is, both, more capable and more secure than Stock Android 9: unlike the latter, it contains the latest security patches and the many feature enhancements implemented by the LOS community and mysel

Unfortunately, that is true and the more complex a product is, the more it is affected by this problem. Also including regulatory certifications only apply for unmodified electronics, it is not allowed to continuously changing components depending on their availability and these certifications are expensive processes...

I know, sorry if I wasn't clear. I am not objecting against the statement, I am just saying, that the way it is is probably stupid.

Based on some models and ideas presented in this thread, I made a new leather flip case for this phone. Each side is reinforced with thin plate of fiberglass. The phone is tied to the cover with 2 pieces of rubber. There is 4 small magnets to keep the cover properly closed.

I have a battery but a broken battery connector cable. So if your battery still has a intact cable, we might be able to get a complete battery.
