Quoting @michael from developer’s mailing list
hi folks,
just a heads-up that some funding continues to exist to port AOSP into Qubes OS:
Consider support for Android VMs · Issue #2233 · QubesOS/qubes-issues · GitHub
"If you’re interested in the development and maintenance of a production-oriented port of AOSP to QubesOS including putting together integration for clipboard support, etc. and you have a record of opencontact@grapheneos.org
There is funding available to get someone a nice workstation and a small stipend to work on it, but we can’t currently fully fund the develop work ourselves. There are likely organizations interested in this among those that we’re in contact with though and I would expect that I couldget someone full-time funding to work on this if they got things rolling."

I saw a post on matrix (grapheneOS room) about possibly having graphene OS as a template for qubes. How doable would that be? What usability concerns/problems would there be? Assuming it would work, I think it would be great as it would allow users to have an extremely secure guest- What are your thoughts?

Did any work towards developing a graphene OS template end up being done?

Over the years, many Qubes users on the mailing lists have expressed the desire … to be able to run some kind of Android VM (e.g., HVM) under Qubes OS.

Honestly I love the idea, developments in qube’s grapheneos would push other projects like linux halium, honestly i would love to see a qubesos phone with halium and grapheneos containers by 2030-2032, I would completely ditch any other phone and get used to doing my banking on a banking vm, honestly doesnt seem impossible with xen-arm advancements but the way I understand it it would require double the funding for the qubesos team
