This phone is apha not beta.
Access to voice and data dropped multiple times.
PO resets and battery removal and replacement to clear.
Other basic functionality such as camera would require a complete overhaul of both SW and HW to even get to minimal functionality .
Will try to get this not ready for prime time phone returned for refund.
Not sure what OS you tried but yes alpha at best. It is really a hacker special which requires much love care and attention to get that otherwise impossible to achieve privacy phone(excluding a few firmware blobs. Nowhere else can you get a phone which Cellbright cant hack, even GraphineOS uses an easily hackable recovery to boot.
