I need an Android device for archival purposes, it has several requirements and I would appreciate any suggestions. I’ve done some research myself, but I would appreciate it maybe you know of something I haven’t discovered.
Requirements:
- Must fit inside this Faraday pouch, or a different one that is of a similar price, and is both water and fire proof
- Must support an open OS (Degoogled, rooted Android ROM or Linux - both support touch interfaces, Kiwix, and storing and viewing files)
- at least 256GB internal storage to store the files
- at least 8GB RAM for running local AI models, preferably nearer 16GB
- Good battery life, since it will stay inside the pouch most of the time and I don’t want to have to take it out to charge it every day
- As cheap as possible
I have no other requirements, it doesn’t even have to have a camera, let alone a good one.
Thanks for all your help!
If “rooted” is a requirement, then this won’t work.
You can root graphene
GrapheneOS can be rooted, though they don’t recommend it as it’s bad for security. For an archival device I imagine security isn’t a big concern.
