I have tried on several occasions to like GrapheneOS. But every time I install it on my Pixel 7, basic functionality breaks. Things like receiving regular phone calls, as in people calling my number using a normal phone. GrapheneOS will sometimes not even ring and immediately display a notification saying "Missed call". If my phone cannot be used as a .. phone, what good is is?

Hell my android does that
I never had that problem when i had my Pixel 7 before the fucking screen died and google didn't honor the warranty.
U can change icons etc by installing different launcher fdroid has a bunch take a look through to find one u like.
There are a few apps that wont work amazon prime is one. My banking apps work but some people have had issues. Overall ive had no issues that i couldnt solve with dr gpt. Would reccommend.
For what it's worth, is there a way to still connect to my vehicle, at least for music? I'm running Sync 3.
you can pair bluetooth still
the icons are not for every app but i dont know if you can chsnge for default apps. the camera is pretty good has good zoom diff modes etc. battery is pretty good lasts the whole day. the sandboxed services are great most apps work you will have "GmsCompat" running when play services is. and some apps still wont work with the sandboxed play services like Gwallet and the multiple users are a very great tool if you need to run non-free software.
You're a bit late! It's ~4 months since I switched to GrapheneOS and I love it! A few little things I miss but long live GOS
Thank you anyway
