i am very stupid when it comes to phones… how can I wipe
android and install graphenous. I will buy a new chip/SIM for my last phone to test/see how it works. Reveal your magic please. I just want a basic phone (text, call, maybe even a map/weather app and like a note app).

You need to get a Google Pixel, then go to the GrapheneOS web installer on your PC and follow the instructions.

Just go to the grapheneOS website and it will walk you through it. I have a medium competency with this kind of thing and the actual install was shockingly easy. Took about 15 mins. You just change a couple of settings on your phone (it walks you through everything), plug it in and then press some buttons in sequence on their site. Just make sure you back up everything you need from the phone first.
