Every line in the boot path is code we wrote. There is zero Apple code between power-on and Linux. The bootloader is ours, top to bottom. To our knowledge, no one has done this on an A13 device before.

I’m curious if they are able (or have any intentions) to access the gsm modem to send/receive phone calls.
Historically, on android, this was a vendor specific binary blob, which really limited what you could do with it “as a phone”.
I’d be happy to drop the phone part of the phone switching to mobile Linux if I could still send and receive calls using an app and wifi only without a carrier
That’d be kinda useless as soon as you’re out of wi-fi range which for me personally is pretty much any time I’m not home
However, if they could get just the data part of LTE working, that would be good enough, I’d just tell people who actually know me to use an app to call me and everyone else doesn’t need to reach me this badly anyway
