Since you’re here, do you know if SIMs “just work” with different profiles? Can I restrict them to a specific profile? I’m guessing SIMs are a completely separate concept from profiles (which AFAIK just manages apps), but this is my first time with GrapheneOS.
As far as I can see, no. But what benefit would that really have? Network settings (including mobile networks) are global. The only thing that’s profile-specific is your VPN setting. You can only disable a profile’s ability to use the phone/SMS feature. Profiles generally manage apps, user data and some settings.
Google Fi is the one thing I have no experience with, as I’m not American. But all SIMs should work fine on Graphene, and eSIMs are supported through a compatibility layer, which enables Google’s proprietary eSIM management tool (this is not the same as Sandboxed Google Play services, and you don’t need Google Play for eSIMs). All the eSIMs and physical SIMs I tried work just fine. Google Fi seems to work, according to this thread on the Graphene Forum: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/7950-does-grapheneos-work-with-google-fi/6
Cool.
