Enter pin
"I don't know what happened, it's the right code, might be broken."
That pin was device self sanitiziation trigger for preventing information from falling in the hands of the enemy.
Then buy enough claymores to make sure there will not be a second encounter with enemy forces.
I really wish the GrapheneOS devs would add duress passwords...
Not as part of core GrapheneOS, but an app called "Private Lock" can detect sudden force via accelerometer and disable the fingerprint based unlocking for next unlock.
But yeah, an erase passcode feature with opening a decoy profile would be a great feature to have.
E: grammar
That's exactly right, I and it works like a charm.
