Exploiting the iPhone 4
Amnesty International released Mobile Verification Toolkit to check your phone for malware, by checking encrypted backups on your computer. https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt

Meduza co-founder's phone infected with Pegasus
From what I was able to read previously, it has no ability to spread by itself and has to be installed by a targeted attack. There is also a tool from Amnesty International that can detect it (or was able to): https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt
It is a race though, so past info may no longer be valid. However, I doubt it will ever be able to spread by itself, since it uses very expensive zero days to infect and they will be quickly fixed after detection.

MVT (Mobile Verification Toolkit) helps with conducting forensics of mobile devices in order to find signs of a potential compromise.

As recommended, I ask it here : how can I find out if my phone is being tapped, and what should I do if it is?
You can do a backup of your phone and analyze said backup using digital forensics to see if for example "automated software" will detect any of the more mainstream spyware/hacks. You can use mobile verification toolkit (mvt) to do this, but it won't detect everything. It is however a good start, you can investigate the basic results with limited knowledge and if something is detected you can further it up to a digital forensics company because it will very highly likely be beyond your qualifications to analyze by yourself. Hope this helps.

Popular XMPP App "Conversations" Removed from PlayStore by Google
Relevant copypasta:
Fellow humans, there are alternatives to Google and Apple! Your neck need not be under anyone's boot! You don't even need to give up any functionality:
Data service:
The simplest thing is to buy a prepaid SIM and top it off with cash. The lovely people over at /r/nocontract maintain a big spreadsheet so you can filter by various properties of the available contracts.
Another way to go is to pay for a postpaid plan with a virtual credit card (VCC) like at privacy.com. It won't be linked to your name at the telco, but of course privacy.com knows who you are. There is also Abine Blur, and some others.
Yet a third way to go, which is nascent, is buy an eSIM with crypto. You can also buy prepaid VCCs with crypto.
An interesting new choice is PGPP https://invisv.com/pgpp/ who rotate your IMSI and do some other cool stuff. It works by e-sims.
All these methods make you /pseudo/nymous, but obviously you're still identifiable by subscriber number and possibly IMEI, to put aside correlational things like your traffic profile. You can help this problem by routing everything through a VPN. Then you're pseudonymous but the cell carrier knows nothing about you other than that you use a VPN. Pay for the VPN with crypto. Of course now the VPN provider knows your traffic, but you're much more anonymous to them than you are to a telco. You make your choices. Defense in depth. Etc.
OS:
GrapheneOS: https://grapheneos.org/ Very much like Calyx, but extra-hardened and with no MicroG. No involvement with Google at all by default. You can make a secondary profile in which you install Google Play Services to set up an environment where you can run unprivileged Play services + whatever crapware you need that requires them. Unprivileged here means it's like any other app: if you don't give it access to your location, it won't know where you are. If you end the profile session when you leave, Play Services stops running and stops talking to Google.
CalyxOS: https://calyxos.org/ Privacy-respecting Android distribution that replaces Google spyware with MicroG, so you can have your cake and eat it too. Most everything will work as you're used to, but it does still talk to Google to make that happen.
LineageOS: https://lineageos.org/ The successor to CyanogenMod, will work with many different phones. More privacy and control than stock Android.
There are also many others: Sailfish, Replicant, e
Hardware:
CalyxOS and GrapheneOS run best on Pixels. The path of least resistance is to get one of these phones and run GrapheneOS with Google Services installed in one profile or other.
You could also buy a Librem 5 https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/ If privacy and security and hacking are really important to you.
Or a pinephone: https://www.pine64.org/pinephone/
Neither work very well by regular standards, but they're cool :-)

LineageOS is currently installed on 1.5M Android devices
It might be worth to switch to GrapheneOS if you have Pixel phones: https://grapheneos.org/
It is a more serious project than LineageOS in the sense that they take security very seriously and they take their development more professionally too. There are no disadvantages to using GrapheneOS compared to LineageOS.

Recommendations for an Android repair shop?
If it still powers up but just won't boot you could try installing https://grapheneos.org/.

Iphone Vs Android
On 4thgen Pixels and up you can install GrapheneOS which is a security and privacy focused Android build. It does not come with any Google services pre-installed but you can put them on. https://grapheneos.org/
