@adrianyyy Awesome work! Since I don't see a notch or cutout, I guess that this is a xiaomi-davinci?

@adrianyyy haha, nice! I like the 'none of that crap' way of davinci, but I do have a softspot for smaller Google Pixels, too - well done!

Here's a another review of the #FurilabsFLX1. In a way, it's also a review of #Phosh and #GnomeApps by @BrodieOnLinux

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (04/2025): Nexx[sic!]-gen hardware by Liberux

The Liberux Nexx (https://liberux.net/) seems like it could be the #LinuxPhone I've been waiting for (assuming, RK3588s does not burn through that battery in minutes ;-) )

You can follow them @Liberux

(Thanks @awai for the hint!)

Look at that: https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/track/mobile/ #FOSDEM #LinuxMobile
Thanks @devrtz and others for all the hard work!
Also note: "The schedule is now available (modulo talks for which the speakers haven't yet clicked on the confirmation link)" - so there's even more good stuff coming!

@trashheap I've been through most of this, too (less N900, less SailfishOS, more Ubuntu Touch, and a lot of de-googled Android before "degoogled" was a term - I just opted to not install "gapps").

Since 2020, I have invested quite some money and time into supporting and helping out people that do their best to make it work, as it's the only way to make it happen.

@trashheap Complaining will not. Just buying hardware will not. Finding the place where one can help out, being kind when writing issues, doing what's possible to keep contributors from burnout and so on is the only way we'll ever get there, and with postmarketOS and Mobian there's no detached management that pulls the plug just as it's getting there.

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (41/2024): Successful moves and #XMPP calling

Installing #postmarketOS from postmarketOS, shot on postmarketOS

#ShotOnPinePhone

Long story short, the old wisdom turns out to be true still: If you want things to be painless, don't buy random hardware and stick to supported things.

Also: Hey, at least it IS booting!

I will see how much time I can responsibly spend on this cursed machine. (2/2)

As a long time ARMv7/aarch64 Linux user, I totally forgot that things in #Linux x86_64 land can be quite cursed, too.

My new AliExpress-sourced P8 Intel N100-powered 8" mini-laptop re-educated me in how difficult some hardware can be.

I only managed to boot Ubuntu and Fedora installers successfully and went with Silverblue (instead of NixOS). I now have an Intel device that boots up with screen sideways and uses Software Rendering 🫣️ (1/2)

Last opportunity: If you're at #37c3 and want to meet me to talk about Linux on Mobile, see https://events.ccc.de/congress/2023/hub/en/assembly/linux-on-mobile/ for my location over the next few hours.

Finally repaired my #PinePhoneKeyboard (months after receiving the new keyboard board) - the external battery charges again, yay!,

Not officially released yet but: https://sineware.ca/prolinux/plasma-mobile-nightly/

Manjaro is basically the only distro out there doing daily dev builds of Plasma Mobile, so (at @espidev's) suggestion I'm setting up some infra to do builds of PM for Alpine/postmarketOS.

? Work in progress: PowerVR SGX540 reverse engineering (for mainline / postmarketOS!)

Today's sad discovery: Tootle (https://github.com/bleakgrey/tootle), my favorite #linuxmobile #gtk Mastodon client has been archived.

(Didn't happen today, but I noticed it today.)
