(nothing I am about to say is necessarily personal; I am genuinely grateful for the link!)
Is there a table of these requirements as columns and vendors as rows?
I think most of this list is acquired by having a modern CPU or SoC, no?
Much of the list is software requirements.
There is one item that sticks out:
Just how much of the hardware list is satisfied by say having a Snapdragon SoC?
I would prefer if people said such and such vendor is missing such and such feature which we need. Always NAME the SPECIFICS. A link to a web page with the exact specifics missing for the most popular phones would help, imo. This is clear and educational. Instead we get "they don't got no good hardware maaaan." It's annoying. Looks handwavy even when it is not.
I understand the annoyance of just having the list of requirements without having vendors, models, etc as it puts the burden of effort on the reader.
On the flip side, the list would be crazy and more work for the devs, plus the definition of "most popular phones". Having that list would be informative but I don't know that it would be that helpful considering it wouldn't make a difference with regards to the devices that Graphene supports?
I haven't seem anyone respond in the way you're complaining about.
There's a long list of requirements, with a big one being hardware memory tagging.
