GrapheneOS

So I really want GrapheneOS but I also want to have my phone rooted to have some features (like Aurora/Droid-ify background updates) but I don't know if this is incompatible and searching it on Google showed some old posts and forum discussions.

I know and I understand that rooting my phone basically breaks the logic of using GrapheneOS, but I still want to do it, is it possible?

I mean "possible" because from what I understand, when you flash a custom rom you need to format your whole phone, but the same process when rooting your phone, so it's possible?

Can we possibly get an (accessibility?) option to move or change the emergency call button placement on a password or PIN lock screen?

Adhd / sleep addled brain waking to irritating alarm that prompted me with a pin and BUTTON which I hit thinking it was the enter key I guess.... Heh, oops. Got a call back on that one, as i then hung up because was still trying to find and kill the alarm keeping me from sleep.

I cant be the only one? Is there a way to not make the option look like part of standard workflow (to half conscious brains), because it most definitely is not standard workflow by definition, and should be distinct.

Hi all, I'm brand new to GrapheneOS and to pixel phones. Been on android since the beginning though.

I bought a pixel 8 pro and straight away put on GrapheneOS on. I have a dual Sim setup (one for work, one personal). On the default app I can't set the app to remember which Sim to use with which contact, anyone else have the same issue?

Looking for advice for what others have done that works. The biggest problem is that calling people while driving I have to interact with the phone to tell it which SIM to use.

Thanks in advance

Hey there,

Not sure if someone is here except, but gonna ask. I have a few of apps that I've purchased on Play Store over time and still use. Probably most important is MySudo, which is a subscription. Can I have paid apps from Play Store in GrapheneOS? If I can, can I connect my existing Google account and still maintain privacy of OS and other apps?

I can't find this setting anymore. What happened to it? Or is an issue with my phone?
