Howdy, I think that you might be better off building from Snappy Ubuntu Core and adding the features you want rather than starting with Ubuntu Phone and removing the features you don't need. The phone has quite a few frameworks that are features smartphone users expect, and are likely to be not as useful (from what you've said here) for your use-case. With Snappy Ubuntu Core you can get an OS and the Mir display server easily along with networking/etc. snaps that you'd need. Then you can build your UI on top of that.

[Ubuntu-phone] Development - Porting Ubuntu phone
Hi , We would like to port Ubuntu phone to an ARM Cortex A7 SoC with 256 MB RAM and NO GPU support. We can strip down most of the graphics intense features and applications. The phone mostly will be used by Elderly people with very limited functionalities and very similar to a "Feature phone". What is your thoughts on this ?
