Anders Lund<p>How about a nice <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/sudoku" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sudoku</span></a> game for <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/plasmamobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plasmamobile</span></a>, nice with <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/kirigami" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kirigami</span></a> ui, using your plasma theme? It is of course very much in prototyping stage, everything is qml - no backend - but it is actually possible to play it even if there is no checking - let alone fanphares - if you finsh a game ... :-)<br>Next step is adding support for pencilmarks, which is likey tricky.<br> <br>I'm fully focused on mobile behavior, but it can of course be made to work nicely in desktop as well ...</p><p><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/postmarketos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>postmarketos</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/kde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/linuxphone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linuxphone</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/fossphone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fossphone</span></a></p>
Anders Lund<p>IT WORKED - finally I'M IN!!!!<br>Installing the prebuilt images with fastboot failed, but resorting to pmbootstrap worked - so now I have a <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/oneplus6T" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oneplus6T</span></a> phone with <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/postmarketos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>postmarketos</span></a> and <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/plasmamobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plasmamobile</span></a> 6 on it.<br>I did order a simcard for it, but I haven't gotten that yet, so testing calls and sms must wait a few days.</p><p>How ever lots of things works - I can browse the internet with angelfish, look at photos, connect to bluetooth devices, record sound, play music, use KDE Connect, set alarms and use timers, view PDFs, use the shell and more ...</p><p>i can't use <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/tokodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tokodon</span></a> (it freezes when trying to log in), so this is posted from my laptop, and my <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/nextcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nextcloud</span></a> account configured in the plasmamobile settings does not work - no contacts or calendar events that way, or browsing files for that matter. <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/Okular" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Okular</span></a> shows a meaningful error message regarding files: webdavs:// fails.

Anders Lund<p>Slowly working on getting <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/postmarketos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>postmarketos</span></a> on my <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/oneplus6t" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oneplus6t</span></a>. First step is to get it up to date for the sake of the firmware, which leads to downloading images from the default <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/oxygenos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oxygenos</span></a> - and what a horror :o Not having lived in googleland for years, it is shocking how awfull using chrome and google search is ...

Anders Lund<p>Trying out the <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/kde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/plasmamobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plasmamobile</span></a> client 'Tokodon', in its android version. It works, but placing the cursor for corrections is difficult, I easily moves words by accident. It looks nice, but of course not native. I'm going to try <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/plasmamobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plasmamobile</span></a> on a used phone, just to see what it can do at this point, even though it can probably not yet be a daily driver.

Zoe 💜<p>This thread will be about my experiments with my new <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/pinePhonePro" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pinePhonePro</a><span>.<br>I got it yesterday and had a few minor hurdles out of the gate. I followed instructions on the wiki but couldn't get it to boot into </span><a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/sailfishOS" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sailfishOS</a><span>. I don't remember what I did differently but after a few attempts it booted fine. I immediately wanted to replace sailfish but first checked that sms and calls worked fine and it did (though took a while to receive the first call).<br>I flashed </span><a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/postmarketOS" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#postmarketOS</a> with <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/PlasmaMobile" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PlasmaMobile</a> to an sd card and tried booting from it but quickly realised I had missed a step ​:shinx_facepalm:​. The wiki said I had to install <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/towboot" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#towboot</a> to the SPI so I did that. After following the instructions properly this time I installed the OS successfully. I found Plasma extremely sluggish and unresponsive so quickly moved on. The next OS I flashed was postmarketOS again but this time with <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/sxmo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sxmo</a><span> and I immediately fell in love with the interface.<br>After that I went to sleep as it had been a long day and was getting late. This morning I flashed postmarketos with sxmo to the eMMC and will be tinkering with it today. Ill update this post with comments about my progress.<br><br></span><a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/linuxphone" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linuxphone</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/linuxmobile" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linuxmobile</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/FOSSphone" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSSphone</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/FOSS" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/OpenSource" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/tilingWM" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tilingWM</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/pinePhone" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pinePhone</a> <a href="https://blahaj.zone/tags/pine64" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pine64</a></p>
