Many ROMs do that and allow you to install in a large number of phones from different manufacturers. For now, if you want GOS, you are forced to get a google phone.

    There is a reason for that. The single-rom-for-multiple-phones idea does t really make practical sense for a security-focused ROM. It has different design pressures. Right now they are rationing their resources are targeting specific hardware. They are already branching out with other vendors but that’s going to take time to do right.
