| Approach | Reliability | Effort | |----------|-------------|--------| | | Medium (decreasing) | Low | | Kernel-level signature spoofing (e.g., PixelXpert) | Low (requires patching) | High | | Custom ROM with valid signed keys (e.g., official GrapheneOS) | High | None (reflash) | | MicroG with device registration (no keybox) | Medium (limited apps) | Medium | 7.
