      Easily done with ADB. Though quite a few apps won’t work properly afterwards, especially notifications and embedded maps.

          Only works properly when the OS supports signature spoofing or you use a root module to do it.

      Try GrapheneOS or any other similar custom ROM.

          Graphene will run on all Pixels I think. They don’t make a distinction on their website.

          For other phones, Lineage is a great alternative OS if a phone is bootloader unlockable and there’s a build for it.

          GOS is an example for Pixels, there are other custom ROMs that support more hardware.

          GOS supports Pixels only.
