That’s $450 for someone to install grapehenos for you. I’m sure that’s a good value proposition for some people.

This is always the case with everything, if you are lazy you will pay double.

Just in case someone reads this wondering if it's a lot of work or complicated to install graphene, it's not. Looking through the instructions is a good idea if you're planning this. Of course you need some tech literacy, but this is one of the easier firmware updates around.

Degoogling can be hard, though. I still recommend it. Get started at least.

I actually installed Graphene for the first time a few days ago via the web installer.

It's dead simple. Click where it tells you on the page, accept on the phone, repeat until done. My only problem was Windows which took three times to recognize it had in fact installed the driver it said it installed.

My first custom ROM. If I had Linux or MacOS available I would not have needed the driver.
