@nfeske Thanks for the prompt reply.
"Sculpt OS" - Should I now refer to it as Scupt OS instead of Genode OS? Either way, given there are three PP OS's that haven't had an update on this forum in a few years (Lune,Replicant,&/e/), how do we get a dedicated OS forum for Sculpt/Genode setup on Pine64 forum since this is clearly an up and coming OS that should be pretty popular based on how user friendly it's been so far.
"Regarding the morph browser" - I actually had the log terminal up for about 1-2 minutes while I was reviewing the RAM error message with Mobile Data turned on. I guess I just needed to wait a little longer because after retesting today it came up 10 seconds after I saw the log terminal screen.
I think your browser is the best I've tried on PP (once zoom in is turned on). Having the digital keyboard up the whole time is kinda nice to avoid fumbling around for the toggle button to bring it up when I need to use it. I can see why some want it to go away for certain uses like watching videos/reading articles.
The back button works while inside one site, but as soon as you jump to a second one, you can't go back to the previous site without bringing up the browser history and clicking on the previous site link.
"About SMS" - Makes sense and as soon as that's added (along with a clock and a few other minor things I can't think of and won't notice until they're unavailable), I'll be making this my Daily Driver PP Distro.
One suggestion that I've posted elsewhere on the Pine64 forum is adding Reticulum which is a decentralized internet similar to PineDio, but doesn't require modems and can carry packets over the internet, ham radio signal, wifi, bluetooth, and yours or their own LoRa's as long as it's flashed with their firmware.
The biggest problem for PP is that if it actually makes a dent in the market (after figuring out battery life), the carriers might decide to just drop it. Reticulum already has a messenger called NomadNet/Sideband that can work without the net. Since there are python VOIP programs out there, according to the creator, you can do the same with Reticulum which means the PP + a battery friendly Distro (Sculpt OS) + PP LoRa backplate + Reticulum = a phone that works without a carrier which is a pretty revolutionary idea.
Since Sculpt is still in the design phase, it seems like making Reticulum a native app or easy to add down the road will be a huge benefit to both projects and the user. Reticulum is currently putting all their focus on Android, but has posted that they're looking at PP for the future.
Here's their latest post:

With or without Reticulum, still looking forward to Genode/Sculpt OS.
