The problem is that (as far as i know) only pixels fulfill their security requirements, for example that the bootloader is not only unlockable but also lockable. But I also would like to have more devices supporting it

Fairphones should be supported imo. CalyxOS relocks the bootloader and they supported the FP5 right after launch.

Fairphone should sell phones outside of Europe
Unfortunately neither of us get what we want

Mmmhm. I’ve been eyeing them since their first phone. I’m sure they will offer even the most basic “international shipping with no warranty or support” any day now…

You can get the previous model (FairPhone 4) in the US through Murena.

Paying full price for a phone that was weak when it released 3 years ago that is also missing most US cell bands and is locked to T-Mobile.
Oh and also the parent company doesn’t ship anything to the US, so parts are aftermarket only.
That’s not available in the US: that’s you can hack together a workaround.

CalyxOS is not a hardened OS, and GrapheneOS requires more than than just relocking the bootloader.

Thanks for the info!

I think some op phones also meet the requirements.
