It is not the best mobile experience possible, but it is a way better experience than any other phone I have ever used.

My main problem are the Telegram clients, which are either webapps (Telegram on webbrowser isn’t that great and has a bug on my phone), or a client with lack of features due to being in beta.

But besides it, I’m loving it ^-^

There are only 78 compatible devices, to install on others, you must do as the other replier said. You also need to unlock bootloader and use TWRY to install a specific ROM image on your phone (they give the ROM to you)

Unfortunately you probably can’t. You have to port linux to each phone you want to use it on and because most android drivers are proprietary you’ll have to reverse engineer everything from audio to graphics. You could check around the XDA forums to see if anyone has at least gotten the bootloader unlocked though.

Yes, sadly no way around that with custom roms and other OS.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
