With FreeTube on my Secureblue desktop, I sometimes search for GrapheneOS videos and sort the results by the most recent uploads, and today, I came across a video that shows you how to install GrapheneOS on a Galaxy S20 FE.
It’s important to note that this setup is strongly adviced against, not supported or recommended. What’s being shown in that video is an unofficial port, and unfortunately, it misrepresents what GrapheneOS stands for.
Running an unlocked bootloader on unsupported hardware poses significant risks, especially using tools like TWRP in this context, and these kinds of ports can harm the project’s reputation too.
