[andrewiassur]

i just received my pine phone today. it booted to android 7.1.1. i was under the impression that this wouldn't ship with an operating system. the system is in chinese and i try to goto setting to try to change the langue and the phone freezes i have to remove the battery to turn the phone off. also i notice that the phone gets really hot when its on the charger. is this normal?

That is just a factory test image. It's not really functional at all -- just intended to make sure the hardware works in the factory.
