I have the Pixel 6 Pro, it goes up up to 512gb. I use a USB-C storage stick for anything extra.
Think that’ll work best for you, since I sadly don’t think it’s currently possible to find what you’re looking for.

Cheers to that mate.
Agreed. In a nutshell, that’s why I’ve listen my Zenfone 9 on eBay and bought a Pixel 6 Pro. Sick of the lack of freedom. I’d rather own something I bought!
ASUS is bringing back bootloader unlocking, dispute their customer service telling everyone otherwise. No ETA, although it may be within Q3.
Thank you for the very informative reply! I love Calyx, used it on my OnePlus 8T briefly while they were testing support for it and now it’s running on my (smashed to shit) 4a.
Think I’ll definitely flash it on my P6P as soon as it gets here, thanks to what you and others have said.
The video was very informative, I’d heard about the project leader but never realised just how much of a cry baby he is… Not for me. I listened to an interview with Nick Merrill and really liked the guy’s values.
ProtonAOSP lets you install microG as an unprivileged app, but with signature spoofing. I like that approach, but the location services in Calyx are a bit too useful. Thanks again!
Hell yeah! I imagine they’ll keep coming, soon as bootloader unlocking is available again. I believe the chap who maintains LOS on the Zenfone 8 also owns a ZF9, so you may be in luck… Omni is rock solid though, usually better than LOS!
Not really. They announced how to add any extension ages ago, but I’m glad they’ve taken time to get things working properly so it doesn’t feel like a beta anymore.
Yes, but no-one should do that if they value stability and security. Nightly is for development, after all!
Those that work, yeah ;)
Just add a custom addon collection. The most useful one for me so far has been Mozilla’s translation extension, which they’ve adapted to mobile very well. Oh and libredirect, works perfectly even tho it has the desktop UI
UHHH… it does. There are at least 3 in active development, plus official TWRP which is being constantly updated and one or two kernels including Kirisakura.
That’s cool. How do you do that?
Hell yeah! I’ve been using desktop extensions in Mull for the last year, but this will mean more extensions are actively developed for Android !!
Firefox is so slick on Android.
Great !! :D
It means you can’t flash custom ROMs or root your device, so you can’t tweak the system or remove spyware beyond using ADB.
ASUS has since backtracked, saying they will allow bootloader unlocking, but I’m still getting rid of my Zenfone.
Just looked up the jelly star - wow !! Awesome little phone. If I wasn’t a photographer and didn’t need custom roms, I’d definitely buy one.
Will you let us know how it goes?!
I completely agree with you. Selling my Zenfone 9 on eBay right now though, because they’ve decided to stop us from unlocking the bootloader.
I refuse to use Android as stock, so now I’ve gone and bought a Pixel 6 Pro. Not looking forward to the size as my 4a 5G is already too big, but hoping 4x camera is worth all the trade offs.
My ZF9 and the ZF8 are the best phones I’ve ever had apart from the aforementioned flaw. The ZF8 had problems with overheating and battery life, but the ZF9 completely solved those. The size is perfect, and the headphone jack is just a necessity. Gutted to have to give it up, but I’ve completely lost faith in Asus thanks to the bootloader bullshit
Thanks for the heads up about the AI features on GP. Just ordered my Pixel 6 Pro last night and I’ll flash CalyxOS on it straight away. Well… after trying GrapheneOS and maybe ProtonAOSP. Any reason you went for CalyxOS over those?
The only things that annoy me about it are the 6.7" screen compared to the 5.9" of my Zenfone 9 and lack of headphone jack, but Asus is done for now they’ve done away with bootloader unlocking… Have you tried using wired headphones with it, if so how’s the quality?
Weird. Their customer service seems to be disagreeing avidly 🤣 However, there’s only the one email claiming unlocking won’t be allowed anymore, with a fair few other Asus employees stating it’s back in Q3 and there was confusion abt it before. It’s possible that’s a red herring.
It’s temporary, while they redesign the unlock app.
Asus support claims it’ll return during Q3 2023. Based on 10s of sources, so idk where you saw them deleting qs so much?
It’s definitely annoying, but not a deal breaker.
I don’t mean to be rude, but you are likely the problem—not Linux. If you haven’t tried using them, there are lots of great YouTube tutorials.
