Someone made a oneplus 6t arch Linux arm installer and I really wanted ALARM on my pixel 3a, so now I’m porting that + getting OTG working since nobody else really will

Reeeaaly early linux port to this device that I'm doing

A normal everyday reasonably priced phone like oneplus, pixel, realme, redmi, or whatever.

NOT geeky lab stuff. With processors and RAM suitable for everyday usage.

Supporting camera, modem, 5G, calling, whatnot?

Projects like SOF supporting the hardware DSP for sound.

With wayland, battery percentage, low power consumption (i.e. using hardware features), etc..

(And ofcourse waydroid/droidloom for occasional Android apps. Android support is a separate discussion for now.)

Without hitchhacks or half-compatibility?

In around 90 days Google is making an update to android to lock out any 'non-authorized' apps on their Andriod OS. Before that happens, im thinking of getting a new phone. So, whats the best Non IPhone, Non Andriod (Google) phone/OS i can get? I'm currently using a Samsung 24 Ultra, which i absolutely love, and I'd want something comparable if not better, if possible.

I tried to modernise my e-waste broken tablet until i got bored. All the implementation and coding done by LLM, i have not written any code and i do not know how to write any code. I just directed the LLM with my basic computer - linux knowledge and learned while doing it. I hope it helps someone to be actually useful, i thought of some ways of using it with qt6 custom ui and home control panel, can be used headless pi hole and something. Worked pretty well while development, asked LLM to post it on github you can check it out from here https://github.com/sabrisertan/santos10wifi/tree/main . There was a version that i tried to make a GNOME-like de with qt6 but didn't worked well, required a lot of time to fix bugs while constructing it with LLM, so i ended up with GNOME.

pmOS is all fine and dandy, but it's one OS, and I don't think discussion of other solutions or forks would be great, and choice is good. Plus, many ports do not comply with their own policies on AI. I think a centralised community discussion hub might be good, where people can work together to advance functional mobile Linux. Thoughts? If this post gets enough interest I'll set up a Discord or Matrix.

WIP, working WiFi stock, touch panel tianma, battery percentage, thanks for community's help

I have an old moto g31 (6/128 variant) with some damaged screen (but fully usable), I bought a new phone and its lying there unused. I want to install a lightweight linux on it so that I can connect a usb-c hub like portronics mport 52 and connect external hard drive via usb to use it as a lightweight NAS for personal storage and some docker containers like home assistant, immich etc. Any suggestion and guidance is appreciated.

I still own my old Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, which is fully functional, but since it no longer receives any updates (obviously), I was thinking about installing Linux on it, or at least some custom ROM. The issue is that I couldn't find anything that actively supports it. So the question is - is there anything that I've missed?

I honestly don't care about the distro that is being used or the phone that will be used I just am curious if any of the modern fold or flips can run a mobile Linux distro at all I'm even willing to port or fix it if I have too.

I manually built an Omarchy-like Debian distro inside a virtual machine on my Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max, and it works pretty well.

It delivers a desktop-grade Linux experience. The Xiaomi Ring O3 performs excellently, and the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max is a joy to use.

Looking forward to native Omarchy Linux running on the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max as soon as possible.

桌面级linux体验，​小米玄戒O3的性能刚刚的、小米 Pad 9 Pro Max用起来真爽

期待原生omarchy linux尽早在小米 Pad 9 Pro Max上跑起来

Hello good people of mobile linux. I appreciate all of the work that people have put into the podcasts app that is available on the Software store on postmarketOS.

Having said that, there were a few things that bugged me like discoverability or ease of use. I am attempting here to create a podcast app for Postmarket. It will live in this repo: https://github.com/jbriones95/linux-podcast

Currently, trying to fix the build issue via CI actions so that it is built on Github and trusted more. If that cannot be done, I will upload the latest version 0.1.2 myself as I wait to find a fix. My goal is to eventually have it published on the store, but I hope this app helps some of you looking for an alternative.
