What are your Braveheart hopes, fears & objectives?
#30
My Objectives:
Get control of my phone again, software as hardware
Get rid of GAFAM services
Achieve security and privacy not possible with just about any other phone
Help and support the pine64 community

My plan is to use it right away as my primary and only phone, so I hope I will be able to install the OS on the eMMC at the soonest.

My hopes for "basic" functions like:
- Initiate and accept calls
- Send / Receive SMS
- a workable browser (ideally Firefox) to cover the few apps I actually use
- the ability of use a terminal

my hopes hardware related
- to find available original spare parts over a long period, including screen and battery to be able to repair it for a loooooong time
- to find a suitable solution to match with a day of my power consumption, even if I need an extra battery in the cover, or a bigger one in the phone

my hopes for more advanced functions :
- synchronise contacts, calendar, and more with my nextcloud server
- easily tunnel all data connection through VPN or CJDNS
- have fun tweaking, testing distros, hacking software, using the extra pin
- to backup my phone easily

Fears:
- basic function are not working or not reliable
- the performance of Pinephone would be slow
- battery could not last for a working day
- I have to use SD cards for a long time and they are getting corrupted
- I struggle to get access web services because it is only intended to be available on android & iOS
