I love the profile feature from GrapheneOS. The idea of having different profiles with different settings (one for all Google apps, one for non Google...etc) is very nice. But Graphene only works on Pixel. I dont have a Pixel so I am trying to replicate this profile behavior on an S24 - what I currently use.

Why do I want to do this?

• Every where is turning into police states with very heavy censorships. In my country (not US), we start to see bullshit stuff like a cop would stop you in the middle of the road and demand you to open the phone. If they see things they dont like (could be as random as an app name), you'll get arrested. It is not as severe as a forensic test of the phone, but more like a road stop where they check your phone instead of your license.

• it is nice to organize stuff.

What does Samsung have?

• Secure Folder
• Work Profile - can be setup with Shelter

What do I want to achieve?

• a dummy profile with the bare minimum to run Google Play updates and other basic stuff.

• All my important data will be in Secure Folder or Work profile.

What I plan to do:

• setup the phone using a blank Google account. No emails or syncs whatsoever.

• put all critical data (personal Google, bank apps, private emails, cloud storages, files, media...etc) in the Secure Folder. Locked using my own pass, and do not use Samsung Cloud. No Samsung account.

• put frequently used personal data in Work Profile. These are things like messengers (Telegram, Signal, Whatsapp....etc), contacts, emails (not the private one).

I'm still new to this so appreciate any input.
