    Next step is drivers that allow switching on/off components of the phone through systemd to save battery. Proper drivers are the only major missing piece for Linux phone OS right now.

    When Linux phone comes with lasting battery and fast waydroid I’ll switch.

          The firmware of the device components, that needs to be signed by the manifacturer and often has critical bugs.

              Modem, wifi/bluetooth chip, many more possibly.

                In case of the modem I know it doesn’t need to be signed. In fact, there exists an open source firmware for it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
