But honestly, what is your goal? If you want it to be a safe phone, just degoogle, install one of either Graphene or Calyx(dont ask me which one is better, I have no idea of either), dont install random apps you dont need, encrypt important stuff and you are good to go.
SIM tracking is another ball game, maby dont even have a SIM card. PIN lock your SIM card, only put it in your phone when you have to.
