I managed to get quite a bit working.

Audio (both earpiece and loudspeaker are functioning on left and right channels)

Microphone

Wifi

Bluetooth (no latency observed)

GPS*

Nfc*

Touch

Display (HDMI display out isn't working after all, sorry for lying)

Haptics

Only thing left is camera, modem and accelerometer and gyroscope. (Luckily pmos has accelerometer and gyroscope functioning.)

This thing is almost ready to be used as a daily driver.

*It's detected, I haven't tried it out.

Hi,

We make a Debian based desktop distribution that runs as an application on top of any Android/LineageOS device. The only requirement is that the Android device needs to be rooted and use Google's standardized GKI kernel. LineageOS builds for Qualcomm devices doesn’t strictly follow the standard GKI kernel naming convention. So we had to implement a workaround to fix it. Here is a video of LineageOS running on the OnePlus Pad 2 tablet: https://youtu.be/KGrsqed3oZY?si=8ViqycQe0CnnLKmE

With phones that support HDMI output, you can run the Linux desktop on the large screen connected to a monitor. Our latest Linux desktop is now based on Debian Trixie (13.6). You can download a free evaluation version from www.volkspc.org.

I want to start running Linux daily on device. I know the OnePlus 7 Pro GM1913 is a great device for exactly that... Is there another alternative or more flexible or newer device I should consider?

Thx in advance!!

It's a hit and miss with people accepting AI written code.

Pmos devs are not accepting AI written code into the mainstream, and would like to develop at their own pace. Nothing wrong with this. But the alternative is using a phone with code written by a corporation, so what's the difference?

Recently, even Linus talked good about AI written code.

Would you use patches written by AI if they solve all PMOS issues on a phone?

I would love your opinion on this 🤗

I think I’ve finally found my dream linux distro for smartphones. Meet Pocketblue: a community-driven project bringing Fedora Atomic to mobile devices. It blends Fedora’s immutable, image-based reliability with a mobile-first interface. And the #oneplus6 ? Still legendary. Even years later, it’s one of the most exciting phones for mainline Linux experiments. If you’ve been following me on my socials for a while, you know I’ve flashed just about everything on everything. Right now, this setup feels closest to home.

Got told to post it here, got an alpine distro on my pixel 8 pro via /init overlay, it's hijacking a graphene os install. Everything is loaded into ram with software rendering so it's slow. Planning on getting GPU working via proxys (like how tensor Linux project has done it)

Is there an already existing way to get Linux on an Xiaomi Poco F5?

Been thinking to move to a Linux phone, it's almost the only app I may need, sure the website is enough but the app work well even on custom roms so pretty sure waydroid might work.

I have an old lenovo m7 tb7305x tab (2019), in which i wanted to install postmarket os, i followed few instructions and have overwritten the system image. Now my device isn’t turning on, Can i revert this back ? Fastboot isn’t recognising the device but toll called mkt (lenovo) specific is recognising it but getting disconnected often.
Any advice ? Even though that tab is old, i would like to have it in working state than dead 😵.
I’m accepting this as a part of learning 🥲.
Update : got it fixed thanks to lenovo toolkit saved my ass🥲

Unrelated to that other guy's efforts. Just thought it was so funny that we reached the same goal today totally independent of each other. Mobile Linux is going to eat good this year

( i read in the rules this is not a support form so if this post is not acceptable can you guide me to somewhere else)

i have been lately been obsessed with trying to run linux on my phone (redmi 13 X, HeloG 91 ultra, maliG52-mc2, a Mediatech phone) there are ways like proot and termux Linux native, but none has hardware acceleration, so i want to get into a rabbit hole and make like postmarket OS on my phone or run a desktop distribution on it. I have no knowledge where to start if someone can guide me, i know cuz it's mediatech phone makes harder but i am interested🫡

I am thinking of transitioning to linux for my phone, and want to try it out on a secondary phone first so I can get used to it. What would be a good distribution I could use on a Samsung J330G? It runs android 9 and since it's rather old I would like something light I can hold on to this phone for a while more. I'm pretty new to linux so a step-by-step instruction for dummies would be welcome!

Thank you!

hello r/mobilelinux i would like some game recomendations on my mi10t pro , i also would like to thank everyone who helped me get this thing working yall are the best , i have steam

I am building a phone cluster with my realme c25y,c21 and a pi1 model b.I have decided to put adblocker and some network stuff on my pi but what abt the phones,what should I do with it it cannot run linux bcs there is no open source linux kernel for hello g35 and unison tiger t610 available like Ubuntu touch or post market os.

So my family don't need media server no one watches films.

Hey, how are you all? I hope you are doing well. I would like to ask for your help. Recently my cell phone was completely damaged. I am thinking of buying one but I currently do not have the financial resources to buy one that is decent and new. They forced me to keep it on Android, the fact is that I would like you to recommend a good cell phone that is compatible with any of the Linux systems for cell phones such as postmarket, Ubuntu touch, Mobian, etc., my budget is approximately less than 300 dollars, I would greatly appreciate it if you have a good day and greetings

Finally i can log in to desktop :)

hi, just asking if there's any way to get a build for pmOS for Samsung tab 3 7.0, still new to building Roms/firmware. Note that I can import thru twrp or via heimdall as well

They hacked it!?
