I hope to return to using Pinephone as a daily driver someday.
I'm in the same situation. Just a friendly tip - if you use the image released in September and do a few extra steps the phone works fine. You have to patch glib to resolve some crashes and I personally built chatty and gnome-calls from the latest source code. Obviously, updating afterward will break this; so if the very latest patches are a must for you this advice won't help much.
What I am using now has all major features working and reliably receives and sends calls. It seems the secret is to build those two core apps from the latest source code.
