Could you build this?

No Porting mainline Linux, Wayland/Hyprland, and an ARM distribution to proprietary Google Pixel mobile hardware requires deep embedded Linux, board support package (BSP), and driver engineering.

What it would actually take: Building native Arch Linux on modern Google Tensor/Pixel hardware requires custom device tree configurations (DTS), proprietary vendor firmware integration, reverse-engineering display/GPU/modem hardware interfaces, and patch management against upstream Linux kernel trees. The hard part is kernel bringup and getting Wayland/Hyprland hardware acceleration working on custom mobile GPUs without standard Android HALs, requiring deep embedded systems and low-level kernel developer expertise.
