- aey 9y agoNone of their modem code is open source. It's baked into a proprietary modem image that runs on a different subsystem then the application processor. You could run a your own OS on the application processor, but millions of lines of code that are actually doing the "phone" part of the device is going to remain closed. I doubt you could run your own trust zone image either, so you are effectively running an open source guest OS where all the interesting stuff is controlled by propriatery code.
- mmathias 9y agoThank you, that's a good explanation. Of course, open source hardware would be nice too :)
