I think there might be a signal fork similar to how Mali operates that would let you use it on a Linux phone but I've only heard about it in passing and so I don't know the name of it but you might want to take a look

That's something I will need to look into as well when I eventually make the switch.

If nothing else, you can use WayDroid until you get the apps you need. I understand that it's still using Android as a crutch, but at least the base system would be Linux.
