I keep saying framework laptop guys should come out with Linux phone that runs postMarketOS or Mobian. It’s can’t be that crazy of an idea considering Pine64 and Purism could literally push out their own phones. Obviously given the state of things right now, sure maybe not going to happen… but I will keep preaching this.
The only thing holding back linux phone other than the SOC is the modem. It is a black box computer on its own with no fixed way to interact with them.
VoLTE is nearly impossible to implement across all the countries. Same will be true with 5G.
You can’t build a open hardware modem because of all the patents.
