Before I Turn On My New Pixel Pro 11

A Pixel 10 owner used Anthropic's Claude to write a runbook for stripping Google apps and AI features from the device, then gave that runbook to Hermes and connected it to the phone over adb to execute the removals. The user reported the process largely succeeded in removing the Google apps, with replacements such as Fossify and FUTO installed, after apps stopped working in GrapheneOS on their prior Pixel 6 because of Google's Integrity API requirement.

It depends on what you want to do with the phone.

I got a Pixel 10 last week, my previous phone was a Pixel 6 that has been running Graphene OS. On the old phone all my apps were installed before Google Integrity API became a requirement, and on the new phone a lot of the apps I need stopped working in Graphene OS.

I had Claude write a runbook for removing the Google apps and AI features from the phone, and then I gave the runbook to Hermes and hooked it up to the phone with adb.

It did a pretty good job at removing all the Google apps, and replaced needed apps with fossify and FUTU, etc.
