Thanks so much for your efforts. I own a phone solely for testing PM, so not a hater at all. More disappointed in hardware manufacturers showing so little support.

Great to hear it. Imo, they have no incentive of doing so. If a country decided that sale of open source hard and software was tax free or at least reduced, we would be seeing it multiply like rabbits.
