A Samsung GTI9300 is a better choice as you can install Replicant on it, and the Intel baseband at least gives you access to radio logs so you can determine GSM encryption and silent SMS attacks https://github.com/darshakfra

The main worry for TextSecure is that Google upon receiving a NSL will send you a targeted update for the TS client and GAPPS framework that sends all your msgs to a three letter agency before being encrypted and sent as usual. So Google wo
