GrapheneOS should update the duress passcode to load a dummy profile like Only Key’s Plausible Deniability Feature.

Loading any profile allows the operating system access to root privileges, and opens potential for user privilege escalation.

Then it should delete the data while loading a dummy profile

That would be an interesting proposition… under duress load profile x and delete all other profiles, apps, settings and keys.

I like this option, save a snapshot and restore that snapshot deleting everything else. So it looks like a regular profile but won’t contain anything you want to remain private.
