Hey.

My phone is a Pixel 8A Graphene OS Phone. I Want to make this phone a Hardended phone. A safe phone. Privacy friendly phone. Not a Watched or tapped into phone. Basically limit the spying and intercepting and get control of the spying mechanisms that may be at play.

The phone has Sandboxed google.play services.

(grapheneos) and 1 profile (owner)

The phone has a kyc sim card. ( currently no way out)

Thanks.

I have the exact same setup as you lol

You can also use the Aurora Store and not use appls from the playstore.

I also have a separate SIM in here from Redpocket. You could buy the $30 annual plan on ebay with a visa gift card or something to make it slightly more hard to trace you down. And ofc you can use Signal and no log kyc VPN to do your activities.

And Obtainium for open source apps. I use Aurora only for apps I can't get via Obtainium.
