Warning: What happens on your Android, doesn’t stay on your Android — not if it's a work phone.

Tell me you don’t understand the OS without saying you don’t understand the OS.
Do you really think it’s a good idea to install an unofficial OS on a device your employer owns without their permission?
Again, someone who knows nothing about the OS.
Inform yourself before making these statements. It’s a more secure, hardened version of the official OS. It is not rooted nor is it displayed to the employer as anything other than Android.
Atop making uniformed statements.
Ah. So graphene DOES have a system where it takes your entire existing OS, shrinks all the partitions on disk, installs itself around that, AND prevents the monitoring software from reporting that your 512 GB device is now actually a 128 GB one?
Well color me surprised.
Or, you know, more likely you end up wiping the existing OS by effectively factory resetting it. And then you ping the management software server saying “I need to reinstall your spyware” which triggers a flag that IT may or may not care about. Similarly, said spyware now wonders why your phone’s storage shrunk so massively and raises another flag.
Are you mental?
Considering I have to deal with these kinds of security concerns on the regular as part of my professional life… kind of.
But you are just switching to ad hominem because your non sequitor “gimme updoots” response to a thread title is nonsense and you can’t admit that. So… I strongly encourage you to wipe your work phone and install graphene with an isolated partition for google/work android and see what happens.
