i would love to have a universal dual booting solution so i can use the garbage they force me to, while also having a private phone without the hassle of carrying multiple phones.
i don't think any of my phones support this though.
I'm willing to bet dual-booting will require an unlocked bootloader. There goes your security if this is true.
You could install GrapheneOS on a Pixel and set up multiple users? Up to 32 if you want. Some can have Google Play Services and some of those can be signed into a Google account while others are just using GP Services without signing in.
Much faster to switch between users than booting a second OS.
Pro: - do most of what needed two phones on a single phone - avoids charging, carrying, and maintaining two separate phones - I'd personally put a lot more here if dual-booting Android and Linux
Con: - hard to find a phone that supports it - the need to unlock bootloader could still break integrity checks despite using a stock ROM - IMEI still shared between ROMs, most of the isolation is already achievable through user profiles - have to reboot to use anything on the other ROM
I know this doesn't answer the question but, I don't think dual booting is the best way for seperation, bcz rebooting is a mess everytime u want to switch. I recommend dual profile or app cloning...
