      How much of a risk is GraphenOS to install? I really don’t wanna brick my phone.

        https://grapheneos.org/

        Only for Google Pixel phones. The install process is right there. You just need a chromium-based browser (chrome, edge, vivaldi, opera, brave, etc.), an Unlocked Pixel, and the usb cable.

        Also, back up your stuff. Flash Unlocking your phone to install a different OS erases everything on it (for security reasons).
