  • I would practice soldering at least a few times before trying it on the phone, but at this point you don’t really have a choice. Moving forward buy a phone like the Asus Zenphone10 which has the battery glued shut but the back is plastic which would make it far easier to remove than a glass back phone. And bonus this phone has a headphone jack as well.

















  • Yes, but the idea is that because the code is open source anyone can look at it and determine on their own whether it is in fact safe or not. Generally speaking the open source community is very good at figuring this kind of stuff out but I would say your fear is not necessarily out of place since nothing is 100% guaranteed. That said though, the more popular FOSS apps are quite safe.
