Phone would be mining by default (guessing the numbers). It would be rare, but we would see random 6BTC grants here and there.
The important part is to decentralize the network.

It is decentralized, which is why it takes more than time to guess and power to be close to right. Lottery doesn't compare.
How many such phones would need to be in a pool to mine 1% of Bitcoin’s blocks?
