    If you do it the manual way - not unlocking the phone and doing it through settings - you can wipe it sure, but when you try to set it up it requires the prior Google account credentials to proceed. No creds, no passing go, just a shiny brick. It’s been like that for years.

    Also might I recommend you take a gander at GrapheneOS for more intense security capabilities than stock.
