Been experiencing a lot of issues with my grapheneos ever since I plugged to charge in a rental car :/ anytime my battery dies it takes a massive amount of effort to turn it back on and always stalls on the grapheneos logo just sits there and I have to pres power and sound buttons to restart and then pause for it to first regain charge before powering. It's weird and frustrating. I think I've been hacked. I woke up today wanting to just juke it.... Like reset from ground 0 but unsure how yet.

Make sure you set the USB C port to charging only even when unlocked, this might have prevented the exploit. There are also power only USB cables or adapters who cut the data cable connection.
Yes, it is a good idea to regularly reinstall graphene os and start from zero, make sure you have all backups.
No idea how to do this yet but gonna research and read your article :)
Yes, its explained there, super simple.
Settings > Security & Privacy > Exploit Protection > USB-C Port > Charging Only
To reflash graphene, just to the same steps you did to install it in the first place.
Ok great! Just did. Hope the next few days I am just gonna reset the whole thing once I figure out what I need back of on and how.
