Does anyone daily drive #postmarketOS or any similar #linuxphone that is not an AOSP derivative?

How’s the experience?

Calling all analog film photographers! I've been working on Filmbook, an open-source app to help you keep track of your film usage. It's built with Rust & GTK4/libadwaita for a smooth & modern experience – and it even runs on Linux phones like the Librem 5 and Pinephone Pro!

The first version is ready for testing, and I'd love your input on what features would make it even better!

Just landed on Indiegogo: crowdfunding for a £1,100 per unit new Linux phone, the Liberux NEXX.

The specs are impressive, and it is the kind of thing I'd love to support, but wow that's a lot of money.

More than I'm willing to gamble, frankly, by a significant margin, but perhaps it might appeal to you!

So, when these Apple devices die (or rather, when the updates have slowed them down enough, and the battery has depleted to the point of not getting through the day - which should be next year or the year after, if the pattern holds)… my next devices will be some of the following, and I’m looking forward to the challenge of getting them to work… any recommendations?

Phone options:
- Pine Phone
- Fair Phone
- Murena
- Librem
- Pro 1x
- Volla Phone
- SageTea XFone

Watches:
- Any of these with AsteroidOS: https://wiki.asteroidos.org/index.php/Category:Watches
- PineTime
- ZSwatch:

Any suggestions or advice?

Er der nogen her som har erfaring med

hvilken #Linuxphone kan håndtere vores elskede

#MitID #MobilePay apps .. ?

Det er tid at gå (tilbage) til #linux på #mobil - men de to apps er ligesom #cantDoWithout ...

tak!

I attached an #RTLSDR USB receiver to my @Furilabs #FLX1. It works as expected, in this screenshot receiving all of our neighbor's wireless weather stations.

(And the odd wireless tire pressure sensor, now I have to find that Toyota and tell its owner it's too low)

The "Mobile Linux"/"Linux Mobile" discussion feels like a rehash of the "Open Source" terminology discussion in the 90's that led to more diverse terms (e.g. FLOSS).

I propose:

#linuxmobile / #mobilelinux as umbrella terms for all efforts at bringing the standard Linux ecosystem to any mobile device (e.g. also tablets)

#linuxphone for a phone running standard Linux ecosystem parts *predominantly* (e.g. allows Android kernels and Halium)

#FLOSSPhone for a phone with no proprietary parts

Ob Europa schon an einem eigenen Smartphone OS arbeitet um Android und iOS abzulösen?

Amazing review for FuriPhone by @furilabs (Linux Phone)

We can keep discussing about kernels, drivers and which are "true" Linux phones and which are not, or we can focus on getting as many people on the FOSS phone ecosystem and improving the rather sorry state of so many applications, and I would VERY much prefer the latter

I can't wait to get a Linux phone someday

When my #mobile phone will be KO, I'd like to have a true (#GNOME) #LinuxPhone … and the FuriPhone #FLX1 by @furilabs seems to be a good candidate

Built on the Gigaset GX6 :
- Removable battery
- 2 SIMs slots AND micro SD
- Robust
- B1, B3, B7, B20 and B28 bandwith (French 4G)
- Debian GNOME + Android layer
- Jack input …

… but expensive and maybe a bit too big

An opinion ?

FINALLY ACHIEVED MY DREAM OF OWNING A LINUX PHONE.

The Pixel 3A arrived today so @AmyIsCoolz helped me install @postmarketOS on it.

It works absolutely well - I'll be mainly using this for my Denaro / Spending records. It's AMAZING!

The Liberux Nexx (https://liberux.net/) seems like it could be the #LinuxPhone I've been waiting for (assuming, RK3588s does not burn through that battery in minutes ;-) )

(Thanks @awai for the hint!)

This is a nice post from Reddit...

I have been daily driving a Linux smartphone for 18 months, AMA

I started out with a Pinephone Pro and Mobian but currently daily a Nord N10 5G (billie!) running ubports/Ubuntu Touch. It's a halium device, which I've found to be the best balance of kernel tuning for battery life and usability while letting me have full Linux on top.

Mecha Comet - Modular Linux Handheld Computer

Je crois que j'ai enfin trouvé mon futur smartphone. En espèrant que ce projet décole. Domage que l'écran soit petit.

The Comet is a handheld Linux computer that brings extensibility in hardware and software adapting to your needs.

The Comet runs on Mechanix OS based on Debian, which means all 60,000+ packages in the Debian repos work out of the box.

Plus, you are free to port any distro you like. The Mechanix Shell is built in rust and supports GPU rendering on Wayland.

One of my main gripes with #LinuxOnMobile has always been On-Screen Keyboards. phosh-osk-stub finally seems to do everything I want. It autocompletes words and has keyboard layouts that don't force you to switch through too many pages, offering long-presses instead.

@furilabs plans to enable it on the #FLX1 by default. To enable it in the meantime:

1. sudo apt-get install phosh-osk-stub
2. sudo update-alternatives --config Phosh-OSK
3. Choose option "2"
4. Reboot
