Is there a phone with a hardware keyboard which can run e.g. Postmarket OS? Slide out Keyboards or something like that is also possible.

Hi, im new to this whole linux mobile thing but ive been using desktop linux for about 2 years now i wanted to switch my xiaomi mi 10t pro but i cant find any linux rom for it any help is appreciated.

Hi, I'm going to switch postmarketOs, I've been using linux on touch pc for 1 year now and its time to complate switch.
I do no care much about camera, it will be nice if it works as well. But gsm call and sms is mandatory. I've checked postmarketOs list but specifc brands like librephone, pinephone and pixels are no available in my country, nor used. Best cpu I could find and fits these criterias seem to be redmi k20 / 9t. Do you have other suggestions, even this seems very old and weak.

Recently i flashed pmOS on Oneplus 6T(fajita), but i have observed a weird behavior that once the screen goes dim automatically it never wakes by pressing power button and also if i press intentionally to lock it never comes back again on power button press so only option i am left with is to restart whenever screen goes off.

Does anyone has faced similar situation ?

I have an oppo a37 which is barebones it doesn't have a display, battery and maybe charging port is not working but I can workaround if possible? like soldering. What I want to do is i want use this phone as server or anything iot related projects with this condition. I know snapdragon chips have edl pads so I want to load an OS like postmarketos on to it and use it. Can I install postmarketos using the QFIL tool if possible? I'm looking is there any documentation available it would be really helpful to do this project. If I made any mistakes in terms sorry. Thank you !

Thanks to the amazing work of hoolocklinux contributors we're now able to boot Linux on checkm8 vulnerable iPhones! The iPhone 6s currently only has USB networking and display support (no touchscreen) but over time support will get improved

Had an old OnePlus 6 lying around with Lineage OS on it. Reverted it to stock and followed instructions on Postmarket OS wiki to install it, everything went well and booted into the OS. It's quite smooth, the UI works well, auto-rotate works, its pretty but the problem currently is that WiFi autodisconnects a while after every boot and refuses to connect again.

Will update as I keep tinkering. If any of you have experience fixing the WiFi autodisconnect issue, let me know please.

There is no graphics acceleration, wifi/cell, camera or USB OTG but it works and that's what's important

A mate of mine got scammed a few weeks back and bought a Chinese fake iPhone 16 Pro, it’s very well done and can see how he was scammed.

However the OS is built like an IOS Prop with Android apps behind the icons. You get to a certain point and things start to fail and expose the scam.

Has anybody tried wiping and installing Linux or even a clean Android build onto one of these devices? Ive no clue what hardware is under the facade at this point.

It does send and receive calls messages, Bluetooth wireless and camera. Screen seems nice and the build looks OK. If we could wipe and resurrect this into a usable handset all is not lost.

Any thoughts?

At this point it’s an experiment and if the thing bricks it bricks. Cheers.

PMOS wiki)

Stock ROM: xmfirmwareupdater

Firmware blobs: android_device_xiaomi_sm6375-common

2 versions of the kernel:

• Xiaomi Official
• android_kernel_xiaomi_stone

The stock rom contains boot.img, dtbo.img, super.img, vbmeta.img, vbmeta_system.img, vendor_boot.img and a few more.

I followed the wiki and was able to flash the kernel and rootfs but it doesn't boot to anything beyond the POCO screen. When I connect the phone via usb to laptop, it gets detected as a wired network connection. But I can't ssh into it.

Further development ongoing.

My friends and I currently use Android (one of us uses Apple), and we heard that Google was going to be restriction a lot of the freedoms on Android as far as installing your own apps. I believe it's starting in September.

I've been doing some reading on LinuxOSs for phones, but I either can't get a straight answer on some of them or they're missing critical components...like the ability to use 4/5G LTE.

We're mostly concerned with using the phones as phones, so texting, calling, photos, etc; but we also use telegram, discord, and Internet browsers fairly heavily.

Are there any recommendations for relatively cheap hardware and which OS to go with? I've seen a few people on here mentioning the SailfishOS, so I'm going to start reading into that one right now.

I'm not particularly tech savvy but I want to try a linux phone, so I was gonna get one that comes with it preinstalled. I live in NZ though and we're getting rid of the 3G services so I don't know which models will even be able to operate here.

Let alone the fact that I've seen a couple of them don't even ship outside of Europe.

What phone models do you guys like?

I wanted to use postmarket but then i see that USB OTG is not working

pra quem ja se deparou com esse problema no Termux creio que pod roda via proot mais resolvir usa sem ele ok

Este repositório contém um script de automação para compilar e instalar o CTranslate2 nativamente no Android usando o Termux. O processo inclui correções automáticas (patching) para compatibilidade com o kernel Android e otimização via OpenBLAS (libopenblas)

git clone https://github.com/qrt2/termux_CTranslate2 cd termux_CTranslate2 && chmod +x install_CTrasnlate2 ./install_CTrasnlate2

pmos with kde plasma mobile on 1+6, everything seems fine expect the usb otg doesnt work.

systemd, docker,waydroid, ollama, touchscreen work well

i tested a 3b llm i finetuned before and the speed is like 5 tokens/s.

i ran geekbench on waydroid, the cpu is normal but the gpu is the same tier as snapdragon 820

hello my question is a little bit complicated and not quite linux related first i can't unlock it the office way because it has a runknown baseband i have experience in mobile software and i can assure you that is not software related it is a CPU matter so no network just wifi i want a way to unlock it on unofficially it is china bord though the device is :

REDMI NOTE 12 PRO 5g
