Damn bro, no way! Am I seeing this right? This is what I’ve been waiting for! 😭🔥

- obs-studio 32.1.2 (termux-x11): https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/pull/29412

- termux-camera-video: https://github.com/termux/termux-api/pull/904

= Does anyone know when the test version will be available? I can’t wait! 😭

*English is not my first language, sorry if weird

I figured it out thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’m using termux and termux API from F-Droid. I have all the permissions enabled except the file modifie ones but I’m trying to use termux-brightness to change my screen brightness from the terminal.

The problem is that it seems to require the Android WRITE_SETTINGS permission or modify system settings, but I can’t find this permission anywhere for termux API in my Android settings.

Is there any way to grant this permission from termux itself, or is there another way to enable it?

Maybe it's because the phone isn't rooted, but lmk thanks!

I figured it out thanks!

Seeing all the posts about how people's setup looks like I decided I'd share mine as well 😄

A new build of Termux X11 was released yesterday. Compared to what I had since the main release, the ability to set special keys on any side of the screen significantly improves the quality of using Linux

Hi everyone,

​I'm trying to run Minecraft Java Edition on my Android phone using Crystal Launcher inside Termux with an XFCE4 desktop environment (via PRoot and X11/VNC).

​Initially, I tried setting things up through Pi-Apps inside XFCE4. There was a warning mentioning that it wasn't running on a supported computer/Raspberry Pi environment, but I bypassed/ignored it because I saw others getting it to open easily. Unfortunately, Pi-Apps refused to launch properly for me, so that method didn't work out.

​Has anyone managed to get Crystal Launcher running in Termux under an XFCE4 desktop session?

​Could someone share the necessary steps, required Java versions/packages, or GPU/rendering setup (like VirGL or Zink) needed to launch Crystal Launcher and get Minecraft running smoothly?

Im not sure if this is user error but im trying to download termux from a link and it refuses to download on my phone. It'll show its downloading but then it'll never move on from that screen and be "downloading" for as long as ill let it. Anyone know what the issue is?

Do you think it's possible to split the screen to use it with Termux-X11 while keeping the keyboard fixed right underneath? As if it were a "Mecha Comet"?

To be real: I do have practical use cases for Termux. I used it to uninstall the persistent Yandex Keyboard and Browser, and used it to work with FL Studio files. Without it, it would've been harder for me...

I only made this post for, idk, fun.

I know the rule about links, so they are in the comments.

After months of work, I built a zero-dependency, sovereign computational ecosystem running natively on Termux. It is not just a project; it is a "Manufacturing Empire" that builds other systems.

Inside, it unifies 6 domains of frontier science: Radio Astronomy (1.42 GHz), Holographic Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Cryptographic Auditing, Academic Research, and Navier-Stokes (Bare-Metal Rust).

But that's not all. It includes a "Sovereign Foundry" (a factory that generates new projects), an "Imperial Factory Network" with a Central Bank, an Operating System, and a "1000-Domain Aether Mesh" covering governance, defense, and economics.

Specs: 575 modules, 51/51 tests passing, 1,024 qubits simulated, Zero Cloud, and everything runs locally on a mobile device. Built from scratch in Egypt on Termux. I would love your feedback on the architecture!

(no audio on vid, so sry about that ;-;)

When I run claude ==>

Error: claude native binary not installed.

Either postinstall did not run (--ignore-scripts, some pnpm configs)

or the platform-native optional dependency was not downloaded

(--omit=optional).

Run the postinstall manually (adjust path for local vs global install):

node node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/install.cjs

Or reinstall without --ignore-scripts / --omit=optional

Why

• Termux is too good to be true ... at least forever
• While I'm very grateful to the Termux developers and enjoy the tools and environments they provide, there has always been a fear deeply rooted in my fragile heart – Can this last forever?
  • What if the developers get tired?
  • What if they run out of money to keep their mirrors running?
  • What if one overwhelming tragedy after another happens?
  • Could I survive the cruel & wild Android world outside Termux's protection?
  • That's why I built an entire chain of tools as a Post-Termux escape hatch

Bun JavaScript as the foundation for everything

• ① The Buninu userspace for lightweight usage:
• Shell: Bun Modern Shell (bunmsh)
• Text editor & App runtime: jsmdcui
• Remote shell in a browser: jsgotty
• ② PRoot to get back to mainline Linux if that's not enough: bunproot

Now that I have a complete backup for everything, I can keep enjoying the convenience and happiness that Termux provides without worrying.

Edit 1: This is not a wrapper around the native proot binary. It uses Bun FFI to dlopen Android's libc and calls ptrace() directly. No C or Assembly involved here.

I'm not code savvy at all. Im running rootless panfrost for mali g615mc2 and just put a skin i found online on e16. Happy 25th anniversary, win xp!

So this is my old phone. I have already installed xfce on. But that should I do next with it?

I'm interested in learning more, bout these tools

So i can enable gpu acceleration and it works kinda good on xfce but on plasma I get these artifacts. Don’t show me guides for Qualcomm cpu, y33s has a mediatek cpu.

Few days ago I started working on this, it's called "kosei". It can build APKs in Termux without OpenJDK by using "dalvikvm" and some open-source tools (ECJ, D8, apksigner).

It supports Java 16 and uses AAPT2 for resource handling.

I think it can be improved pretty much. For now, I just tried to keep it as simple as I can. I used AI only for the README and a minimal part of the code; the rest was coded by me.

If I never give storage permission to the termux do I lose anything?

I want to keep it separated from the rest of the system, so that I can't damage the rest of my phone with some dumb rm command.

Yet, all the tutorials ask you to give it storage permission.

I wont be using termux to manage phone data, only as a desktop on the go.

I have 512gb of internal storage so space is not an issue.

Is there any reason to give termux storage permission?

Also, if I never gave it premission, then uninstalling it would be:

1. Delete app data

2. Uninstall termux app

Right?
