So no response from turing so far, looks like I'm stuck with a non-working unit.
Some other notes:
With wifi and bluetooth off (and phone of course due to issue above).. the handset dropped 24% battery overnight (9 hours). Looking at lighthouse the cpu is idle.
Can't install google play - tried 4 different methods
No Microsoft Exchange support
The device is very nice in terms of build (other than the fault), it has some really awesome ambiences, but the software is definitely unfinished compared with my Jolla C.
If you consider to return it but is ignored we have to set up a scam patrol. Let's know. GL!

No, I plan to return it. Not sure how that will go as turing isn't responding to anyone else that has had this problem.
In fact their support is non-existent. For any one else planning to buy one, I would suggest looking at other alternatives.

I'd say that you could ask others here that have had some success with installing Google Play. A lot of the older methods still work.

I can't remember where I found the instructions but I downloaded the 3 apk files, turned on the developer mode and followed the instructions essentially copying and pasting into the priv file I believe. If I can find the website again I'll post it or ask the Turing phone group just in case I forget. I get busy and side tracked a lot
