Sound incredible !

I like the word "simply" in this sentence

> i will simply be able to recreate the baseboard with the new 4G module, a microcontroller, and some audio processing and power management circuitry and it will be able to seamlessly fit inside the phone.

Seems like a bigger project than the author would let us think ! But I hope to see the PCB soon !

Author conjured a primordial black hole by working on an Nokia and was never heard from again.

Well, I wouldn't call it trivial, but it's not completely outlandish idea. There is prior art in this Ringo kit, which does almost 90% of what's required here: https://github.com/CircuitMess/CircuitMess-Ringo

I still have it, haven't put it together yet. I've heard it doesn't actually work with carriers.
