ALL of the internationally branded phones i’ve had (mostly chinese) had compatability quirks with my aftermarket jvc head unit.
I would suspect GrapheneOS would be more likely to work than these, but you could always ask on the forum if anyone has any experience
there was also something wrong with them and some esoteric policy at the places i purchased them from wouldn’t let me get a refund
Ebay has very good buyer protections - arguably too good, making things hard for small sellers. Virtually impossible to not get a refund within eBay’s 30 day return period.
do you have any information on movement with any oems & graphene?
They’ve confirmed it’s happening but likely not until later this year or 2027
eos looks the most likely to me
Don’t use eos if mobile security matters at all to you. It’s also not nearly as private as GrapheneOS and frequently phones home to Google.
ig, you could just buy used though or wait for their own device to be released via the upcoming OEM partnership. I wouldn’t be surprised if pixels are sold at a loss or break even point anyway, supplemented by surveillance capitalism and google play store revenue.
Unfortunately I don’t know of any brands that sell non-IoT dry food feeders that have RFID/microchip recognition. My kitties are geriatric and require different prescription foods. Fortunately I bought a model that doesn’t have mic/camera, they’re on an isolated network, and I have network wide ad/tracker blocking. But I’d be open to alternatives if you know of any.
TBH I don’t remember if it was wired or wireless but my understanding is that GrapheneOS’s implementation is essentially the same as what is included on stock android for Pixels, so both wired and wireless work (https://grapheneos.org/usage#android-auto).
I used it with a stock system so not aftermarket. Do you have any specific reason to believe aftermarket systems wouldn’t work? If they support android auto you should be fine.
If I can answer any questions about GrapheneOS lmk. Android auto works, I don’t drive much but I’ve used it before. You can also ask on https://discuss.grapheneos.org/
/e/ OS is not more secure than lineage. It tends to lag behind on security updates by months.

For privacy, security, and usability, GrapheneOS is the best alternative mobile os by far. The only downsides are if you don’t like or can’t afford Pixel phones, and even GrapheneOS won’t have certain features you may need such as mobile device management, google wallet nfc payments, certain apps especially banking apps.
Well that sucks
