Turn a Raspberry Pi into a Linux-powered phone that makes calls, sends texts, tracks GPS, and even controls smart devices. Step-by-step tutorials, full source code, and beginner-friendly instructions included.
Ever wondered if you could build your own smartphone? With a Raspberry Pi and a few affordable components, you can. This book shows you how to create a working Linux-powered cell phone that can make calls, send texts, and even track GPS — all while teaching you valuable skills in Python, Linux, and hardware integration.
Inside you’ll learn how to:
- Assemble the Pi Phone – step-by-step hardware setup including modem, antennas, SIM card, and touchscreen.
- Set up Raspberry Pi OS – install, configure, and enable remote access with SSH and VNC.
- Master AT Commands – communicate directly with the Quectel EC25 modem.
- Make calls and send texts – Python scripts for real-world communication.
- Add GPS and IoT features – build a GPS tracker and control home devices via text or web.
- Troubleshoot like a pro – common issues explained with practical solutions.
Unlike other Raspberry Pi guides, this book focuses on one real, working project — a custom-built Pi Phone. Along the way, you’ll gain skills that apply to robotics, IoT, and embedded systems.
✅ No prior coding required — step-by-step tutorials make it beginner-friendly.
✅ All source code provided — download, modify, and run instantly.
✅ Projects you can show off — build something unique that most people don’t even know is possible.
If you’re ready to go beyond blinking LEDs and start building serious Raspberry Pi projects, this book will get you there.
