It's impossible
Run a multimillion dollar company first and then we'll talk.

Obviously it's possible; smartphones exist. Perhaps you think the necessary technology was given to us by aliens?

Start small. You're going to need a pickaxe to mine iron to build your smartphone building machines. So to build a pickaxe you're going to need wood for the handle so you'll need an axe. To make an axe you'll need wood for a handle and you'll need to mine some iron. You'll need a pickaxe for that. So you'll need some wood for your pickaxe's handle and you'll need to mine some iron.

You are going to need alot more than iron.
Copper, gold, lithium , aluminum, oil (for plastics), not to mention all the exotic chemicals found in the fabrication process. You need to be able to find these materials, they aren't scattered around on the surface you will have to dig.
