I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade my phone to Android 11 (god for bid Android 13/14) on my Samsung S9.
I remember back when I did this, back in 2020 I somehow installed Android 11, it must of been an update Samsung rolled out and I didn’t noticed until in December of 2021, I accidentally factory reset, yes, ask me how I managed to do that.
Just wondering if this is possible, as I know its not, and I know that the S9 is EOL.

Android 13 is the currently supported version on this device

AFAIK this is entirely dependent on where you bought the S9. If you bought it from Samsung or otherwise with an unlocked bootloader, probably. If you bought it from a carrier, probably not.
It also depends on whether it’s exynos or not. Qualcomm has been strong-arming Samsung into kindly locking their bootloaders.
Yeah, my bad forgetting that. It didn’t affect me at the time so I kinda forgot it existed
