OOTL here. Are there any major phones which implement RISC-V? Also, does this require across the stack changes? i.e. not just OS ones.

Not yet, but they're coming down the pipe.

I'm not sure where you draw the boundary between 'stack' and 'os'. Can you expand a bit?

Do you have any links? I'm curious, and not a little bit skeptical about the near-term competitiveness of RISC-V in the mobile space.

Nope. Qualcomm does have smartwatch RISC-V processors in the pipeline. It's not nothing?

Haven't tried the AOSP port for the LiCheePi 4a yet. Probably should give it a whirl just to see if things just work.

That's easier just to try downloading Minecraft through the Play Store than boot strapping the entire toolchain needed to get PolyMC working.
