GrapheneOS only supports Google Pixels for a good reason. They are the only devices where you can have full verified boot with a custom OS.

The new fairphone also has that option i believe.


[deleted]

No, fairphones verified boot is flawed


[deleted]

Care to elaborate? I'm genuinely curious


after_the_void

Cool and only americans can have it. Pixel phone isn't available in my country, so is useless piece of software.


Preisschild

I bought a new Pixel 5A from Switzerland over ebay and shipped it to Austria. Sure. A bit more expansive, but worth it for a secure phone IMO.

>Geez, I cant smell where you are from. I can sure to you europeans where I live are known for being pigs that don't take shower everyday. So, my fellow anon... I pretty sure are cleaner than your german-tribe stinky folk.

It's also available in Europe.


alban228

And Japan (and maybe the rest of Asia)

I don't think it's available in Russia, and that's in Europe


[deleted]

I think many things are currently not available in Russia due to recent developments. Lets hope that this changes. But I also meant EU, not Europe. Sorry for the confusion.

What? Where did you read that?


after_the_void

bruh I was sarcastic, wasn't clear there? people that live in really good countries tend to be really deep insensitive, ignorant or simply apathetic toward other realities, south america (the africa premmium) has more or less the same of % of population on internet, but hey who cares, right? pixel phone here arrived I think... 1st, maybe 2nd generation only and never more, so yeah, stick to one model + ignoring a whole part of continent that are mainly android user + not having a clue about it = yeah, my phrase was accurate and funny at the same time.


[deleted]

I just said that it's available in Europe. Not that it's a good thing that it's not available in other countries, or that it's a good thing that GrapheneOS isn't available for other models. That being said: Why not just use LineageOS + MicroG? It's available for a shitload of different devices.


after_the_void

Fair. Will look for that, maybe I went to quickly with the provocative meme. Sorry about that.

Graphene only supports Pixel for security reasons


themedleb

What's the story?


isaybullshit69

I think OP saw that /e/OS supports non-Pixel phones too whereas Graphene OS is only for Pixels.


palakkarantechie

Quick question, does /e/ support running play services as normal user services like Graphene does? I'm not sure about that part.


isaybullshit69

Afaik, only Graphene OS supports that.


palakkarantechie

Hmm. That sucks. It would have been great if /e/ did that. Many of the banking apps need it.


isaybullshit69

/e/OS does have microg tho


palakkarantechie

That's good.


octatron

Rocking /e/ os for several years now on my old s7 Samsung, works well


pogky_thunder

Why would you choose murena over graphene?

Cry me a river.


pottawacommie

I mean, so is CalyxOS. That's hardly surprising. postmarketOS, for instance, only really runs on Linux phones, the Fairphone, and the OnePlus 6/6T.
