1 1 ReplyGraphene is is way over hyped. You can basically the same thing with lineage os. The key is just not using gsf
5 4 ReplyBut then you can't use any apps that require Play Services. The killer feature of GrapheneOS is letting you run Play Services in a sandbox.
6 0 ReplyYou can use MicroG instead of play services and most apps will work.
1 0 ReplyMicrog will most jobs tho
1 0 ReplyBut that is unethical. Don't run proprietary software when there are good alternatives. I don't want google anywhere near my devices
2 1 ReplyWhy would you even do that in a sandbox? Aren't you sending your personal data to Google servers all the same?

Unlocked bootloader is considered a vulnerability tho
But if your threats model is toxic Tim, satya and sundar, it will do the job just fine.
5 0 ReplyYou can relock the bootloader though can't you?
Genuine question. I used to be an avid ROMer back int day until I got really really annoyed at all the hoops I had to jump through to use Google Wallet.
Now I have a Pixel 7a and I'm considering ROMs again. So I am wondering if I can just relock the bootloader once I find a ROM I like and it'll pass all the Safety net bullshit and allow me to use my phone like it should be, just with a custom ROM on it.
1 0 Replymost phones nowadays don't support relocking the bootloader, they will brick
pixel does support it still
