An ideal phone:

  • Fairphone 4/5 like build
  • Unlocking the bootloader without asking manufacturer for the code
  • Access to the flashing and pairing tools from the factory to eliminate bricking
  • U-boot, Coreboot or similar sane bootloader
  • (Close to) mainline Linux support for the components, to enable "lifetime" updates and OS freedom
  • Optional: headphone jack and SD card slot

What a dream... But sadly it probably won't happen. They manages to establish this shit as a standard and that's it.

Imagine PCs would be like that too. Would anyone buy them if they couldn't install EVERYTHING? Or delete or change system-stuff/-apps? Or just go and install Linux? Or win? Or both?

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
