    GrapheneOS on a Pixel 9 Pro. It’s nice to have better control over what data is leaving my device. Updates / patches from upstream AOSP are usually offered in GOS in the same timeframe it takes to hit regular Pixels.

    Calyxos pixel 4a 5g. Works pretty well phones old but does what I need of a phone, replaced the screen last year and actually down graded from my pixel 6a as I like how wide the 4a is.

    GrapheneOS Pixel 8 Pro

    By far, the most stable and bug free custom ROM I’ve ever used. And thanks to the Play Store, everything I’ve tried has worked

        It’s okay, no issues with normal use. Not sure about gaming, since I never game anyway. The only issue is that pixel 6 is nearing eol for grapheneos. Still gonna use it after, but might be good to know.

      I have great respect for the Calyx team. Give them a donate if you can as there biggest development bottleneck is resources.

    Unfortunately none anymore because I got a Zenfone 10 thinking they would release the bootloader unlock tool but they lied and never did.

    Next phone will either be a fairphone or Pixel phone.

    If I could I would run Graphene OS.

      Sorry to hear about that, I had the Zenfone on my radar too, but not anymore due to this whole affair.

    I’ve jumped through a couple on my Redmi Note 10 Pro.
    Needless to say, Xiaomi’s recent hostility towards Bootloader unlocking has soured my desire to buy another

      Yes, I have an old Xiaomi 11T I’m not sure what to do with, unfortunately the custom ROMs support seems subpar. Interesting to see that vast the majority of the people here use LineageOS.

        It’s the more stable and bug-free ROM in my experience.

        Looks like that model has a MediaTek CPU, so that explains it: MediaTek doesn’t release their sources so it’s very hard top get a custom ROM working.
        Snapdragon is the way to go (though it isn’t a guarantee so always check if community support is good before buying)

    I was running GrapheneOS on the Pixel 7, but it’s quite lacking in care towards UX (the preinstalled apps, for example, are AOSP apps seemingly taken from multiple versions of android with different UI designs. There’s no preinstalled apps store, although they seem to recommend using the play store and recommend against F-droid?), and you need to spend a while figuring things out. The security is remarkable but I feel they could give other areas more care.

    No contactless payment is really tough too. I hate carrying my wallet. That’s not their fault though.

    GrapheneOS with a Pixel 6 Pro. It works perfectly for me. Most Google apps don’t work, but that’s only because I’ve chosen not to install their spyware “services”.

    LineageOS 22.1 (Android 15) on a OnePlus 5T. I’m a little surprised the latest released LineageOS supports this phone, but I’m glad I don’t have to replace my phone yet. There are several apps I can’t use on this phone, but I don’t need any of them that much, so I’ll keep using a custom ROM as long as I can.
