I understand one can flash a pixel. I never want to install another rom again though. I want to buy it and have it become my daily driver with android auto and communication apps within a few hours. I have found the ROM scene to be an enormous time commitment that I no longer want to fiddle with.
I plugged in my S21+ to my Google Pixel 7 and went to the browser installer on the S21+, took maybe 5 minutes to install. Graphene OS is dead simple unlike other roms. That's why so many people use and recommend it.
I'm still desperately in love with android auto. I'd still need a phone with full android permissions and functionality. So graphene is still out.
That's really cool they smoothed the install process like that. Might try that on my old pixel as a travel phone.
I totally get that. I'd probably be the same way if my car was new enough to support android auto.
If it's not annoying I could probably use a spare old phone exclusively for android auto. But unfortunately I'm still entrenched in Google services. Slowly dragging myself out.
