Yes, there's tutorials on how to activate those options... but as I'm saying a very basic mobile-user, will never activate it! They won't search the internet & just install apps from it. + if they would, all the videos say that it's not MEANT for an end-user, so be careful! As I said, it's not the fact that's its *relatively easy* to brick your device, it's just the phone itself. It's basically designed & created for devs & geeks. Someone coming from an iphone or any other smartphone in that category, couldn't really adapt themselves on a brick like this. Whether it has it's freedom or not (freedom for hackers/devs/programmers, not for normal users). I wouldn't advise this phone to anyone who can't handle this platform.
