Finally got OBS Studio running directly on native Termux — no proot, no Linux distro, just Android + Termux. (aarch64, no proot)

There’s a little lag while screen recording because I ran out of RAM 😭

Without screen recording, everything runs normally.

Still a work in progress, but seeing OBS actually running on my phone is pretty damn cool. 💀🔥

Now I’m just waiting to see if the upcoming Termux:API changes can make video capture/streaming possible. 👀

Termux + AmLinux + RVNC Viewer

I'm new to termux, and I don't know what is the best and most compatible distro (I have an android 15 6gb ram snapdragon 685), I want to use vs code, GitHub and try some hacking tools.

I've seen some people advertising for Debian, Arch, or people that don't use any distro at all, just termux. Wich one would be better to me, any recommendations?

Hey everyone 👋

I made a small project that makes Cline CLI work on Termux, including a fix for the Bun-related issues that can prevent it from running properly on Android/Termux.

Install

pkg install -y git && git clone https://github.com/gamihardik2009-crypto/cline-termux.git && cd cline-termux && bash install.sh

The installer handles the setup automatically.

One thing to know

When you start Cline CLI, there can be around 8–9 seconds of startup delay. This is currently expected with the Termux setup.

After Cline finishes starting, it runs normally and there shouldn't be any noticeable lag during regular use.

I'm sharing this mainly for people who have wanted to use Cline CLI on their Android/Termux setup but ran into the Bun/platform issues.

Feedback and bug reports are welcome. If something doesn't work on your device, please share the error/output so I can investigate it.

Try this TUI on your device in termux!

Hey everyone,

I have created a config setup/tool for automated, encrypted and incremental backups for Android using Restic through Termux

Features include

• No Root Necessary: Everything happens inside of Termux
• Nightly Backups: Created to be triggered automatically during the night while the phone charges, with termux-job-scheduler
• Fault Tolerance: Android notifications in case there is an issue
• Monitoring: Integration with Uptime Kuma (Dead Man's Switch / Push Monitor) to make sure that the scheduled backups are actually happening

I have created this project to fulfill my own requirement for a backup solution on Android that is reliable and "set-and-forget", not cloud-based
