      I don’t know if you are deliberately missing the point ?

      You need a lot more than open source android to make a phone work.

        I didn’t miss the point. Maybe you’re conflating a distribution with an operating system. But, since you brought it up:

        1. LineageOS
        2. GrapheneOS
        3. Fire OS
        4. Many more…

        My point is that — at least in my eyes — open source is not synonymous with one single project. Do with that what you will.
