Will GrapheneOS Install On Any Other Hardware?

tacos

I am trying to secure a device for myself that would function as a crypto auth device and I am paranoid about using a cell phone or at least one that is attached to google, apple, android. So I was wondering, would a pixel (older gen vs newer gen) suffice or be overkill. Then thought, what about something not cellular, like a tablet ... So silly question, has anyone forced Graphene OS to install on any tablets or non cell hardware device? I would be connecting to my own secure network via wifi only as needed, and this is planned for long term storage/auth.

Thanks for your thoughts

GrapheneOS is only supported on Pixel smartphones, see https://grapheneos.org/faq#device-support

To avoid cellular communication, enable Airplane mode. It effectively disables cellular modem altogether.

That's pretty paranoid, yes. But at least not as paranoid as the people who think that the vaxx contains microscopic tracking devices (which would make the notion of tracking your phone moot).

While its only supported on pixel devices (3 and higher), you could build it yourself for ANY device, as long as there is some route to run a current version of AOSP on it. It of course would require some knowledge of the build system and what goes into adjusting device trees to match up. Your easiest route would probably be a developer device; https://source.android.com/setup/build/devices
