GrapheneOS: Pixel 9, 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL releases available now
1487 sats \ 8 comments \ @final 23 Aug tech
Experimental releases of #GrapheneOS for the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL can already be installed with the web installer on our staging site:
https://staging.grapheneos.org/install/web
Once releases are no longer experimental, they will be in the standard web installer as well.
You can also use the CLI install guide with the releases listed on the staging site releases page.
Our USB-C port control feature with both hardware-level and software-level enforcement hasn't been ported to them yet. They temporarily have our old USB peripherals toggle not depending on changes to device-specific USB HAL and USB-C kernel driver. We aim to get this done soon.
These are production builds signed with the official keys with our standard update system. They'll get updated to future releases without needing to reinstall the OS.
For now, please report issues to our testing chat room rather than our issue tracker if you use any of our community platforms: https://grapheneos.org/contact#community-chat.

Cool. I'm going to switch off iOS soon and Pixel 9 will be my first Graphene phone. (Although I'll probably need an updated iOS phone too for testing.)

Yeah I was thinking of getting both an iPhone16 and this pixel 9. My current phone is extremely limited in space (64 GBs šŸ˜©)

16gb "enjoyer" here. Big sdcards save us. Even if the old phones are more limited to the maximum size.
Edit: besides the limited space got me into custom roms without google shit that takes the other half of the space, the first being android.

Great news! I am planning to buy a pixel and still undecided about whether to buy an 8 or 9. In my area the 9 costs around 400 USD more and the main improvements seem to be 12 GB ram instead of 8 and a little more processing power. Then there is a lot of talk about ai stuff, which are probably all based on Google's spyware, so no, thanks. what are your thoughts?
