I supposed that ... (they sent me one by now) ...  no idea why the phone arrived "naked", just the empty phone ... could be possible more people have the same problem?
Whatever ... I wanted to test the phone, so I connected a USB-C cable to power and I am using it without the battery (not really a cellular this way, but it works).  Although I suppose this is an unexpected scenario, I found some things.
- When using a 5V 3A power supply and a USB-A to USB-C cable, the phone works.
- When using a variable power supply, the one needed for Chromebook Plus to fast-charge and a complete USB-C to USB-C cable (the only one that the same Chromebook Plus needs to charge correctly), the phone shows no life signs.
- When using a UCB-C modem between the cable and the phone, the phone shows no life signs, no matter what power supply I use.
So ... and this is weird ... I will suppose that will be complicated to connect more than the power supply to the phone, and no all them work.  At least, standard USB-C hubs and related will not work, limiting the phone usability.
Already used Ubuntu Touch and AftermarketOS.  Neither of them have a useful WIFI, and ... again, I have no idea why, both block the screen with an unknown PIN that I need to guess.  I am booting the phone from the SD.
I really love the screen.  It is clear and crisp.  I will try not to kick it because it seems a little fragile and I still have no way to protect it.
... work in progress ... I must understand well this wild little horse ...
