Don't fall into the illusion that you can have privacy with stock android. Google has admittedly igrored user settings to continue spying them.
Logout from all your Google accounts and then use Aurora Store in anonymous mode to install and update apps.
Install Rethink DNS app. Configure it to be an Always On VPN. Block any unwanted apps.
The best thing is their on-device block-list. You can even block Google all together. Its super customizable.
You can also use Wireguard VPN with it and it can do split routing.
It has been a game changer for me.
Didn't know it has Wireguard! Interesting..
Sell it and get the same one but unlocked. Should be about the same price.
use FOSS apps as much as possible, avoid google account login. we have the same problem, i use CPH1853 and theres no way i could install GrapheneOS.
your carrier still sees you, deal with it or use airplane mode + wifi calling like a ghost. next time just buy an unlockable pixel from google, flash grapheneos, and ascend.
my threat model doesn't include carrier location tracking, im not that extreme in danger of anything
