  My #fairphone5 just arrived today and is in such great condition but sadly it is stuck in retail mode and i don't see any way to exit it, during the setup process it mentions that it is managed by an organization and to use the reset option to exit that but the reset option is locked out and doing a reset via the recovery just puts me in the setup wizard as well. Anyone ever get a retail fairphone and know how to escape it out? I dont really want to go through the return process. #fai...

  Just got back from carlsbad caverns. While out an about i figured i would take my #Librem5 and take some pictures to compare to my #FLX1. Tested with latest millipixels on crimson for the L5 and furicam on FLX1. L5 was actually way better than expected, it was a bit hard to get it to focus correctly and the cam preview does not do it justice since the magic happens in post but its good! https://photos.luigi311.com/s/carlsbad-librem5 https://photos.luigi311.com/s/carlsbad-flx1 #ShotOnLibrem5 #...

  Second attempt at hunting down a usable #Fairphone5 was a success. Was able to update/call/reset/unlock bootloaders all successfully! Got it all working with #UbuntuTouch too so i can test with it first and then swap to #Postmarketos to test with that. Will eventually get a review up on both UT and PMOS with it but that is behind the #Librem5 crimson review i still need to work through and then will probably hold out til 26.04 UT is out. #MobileLinux #LinuxMobile

  @dos with Etnaviv having a ton of progress thanks to @austriancoder amazing work lately, are there plans to backport all that into crimson or is the crimson mostly on freeze related to mesa so the #Librem5 wont have access to it other than on PMOS or on the next PureOS release?

  Working through updating the #FLX1 review i wrote up a while ago and my god hopefully future phones I test both do and dont have similar battery life. I want to have full battery life numbers instead of just estimations so from 100% to the phone is off. Standby test without a sim and wifi on the entire time has been going 164 hours and still has another 16% to go. No deep sleep. Luckily the last battery test i need. Im also updating the review structure a bit to show more info. #mobilelinux

  Updated @furilabs #FLX1 review is now up! https://blog.luigi311.com/furilabs-flx1 Let me know what you guys think and if it covered everything you guys would be interested in. Added in some more battery numbers and simplified some charts. Looking forward to the future progress on the FLX1 and its sister device! #mobilelinux #linuxmobile

  Thank you @furilabs team for making a phone with good battery life. Just did a 75 minute workout on my indoor bike and logged it all with the #FLX1 Only lost just shy of 20% while connected via bluetooth to my earbuds, heart rate strap, indoor bike. Playing music in gapless, browsing the web in firefox and jotting down notes, processing the hr/bike ble packets and displaying them in my workout app. Great not having "range anxiety" on #mobilelinux hope more devices follow #In...

  Looks like a really good #jellyfin music player is coming to #mobilelinux hopefully soon. Finamp is flutter based and looks like someone added in a CI for building an arm build recently and it looks great. Seems to require EGL > 1.5 and GLES > 3.0 though for hardware acceleration. This is a nice looking app and hopefully at some point i can run it accelerated on one of my devices i actually carry.

  The Mecha Comet #mobilelinux kickstarter has gone live. Comes with either an IMX8M Plus up to 4GB Ram or a IMX95 up to 8GB Ram. Looks like a really nice linux first device running a downstream 6.12 kernel. It has a m.2 slot which can accept a modem for cell service but no ear piece so calls will be speaker mode only. Cameras are already working using the ISP. Hope they meet their timeline of this year as I can’t wait to get mine. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mecha-systems/mecha-comet-m...

  @shom a while back you were posting about your #PineNote E-Ink tablet, now that you've had it for a while, assuming you still have it, how has it been holding up for you? Do you still use it and enjoy it? #Pine64

  @angelthorns how is your pmos ayn Thor going? Curious to see if you’ve tried running steam on it yet?

• View post

  @angelthorns that’s too bad. Glad to hear you are still working on it, do you love it as much as people love it on the android side of things? It looks like it’s almost the perfect device to carry around. I do wish it had used the 8 gen 3 though as that’s what will be on the valve steam frame so it would have had the kernel backing of valve indirectly.

  Was going through some of the #fosdem talks and noticed one on something called #JMAP maintained by #fastmail mainly for managing/syncing contacts and calendars. Is there anything in terms of self hosting a server yet that i can then develop something that will connect to it? I see someone made a nextcloud proxy but i dont really want to spin up a massive nextcloud server just for contacts/calendar. Id like to use it for #mobilelinux so hopefully gnome/kde support it upstream at some point.

  Not too shabby, able to get my training in without missing a beat and listening to my music. #mobilelinux #fitness #running #FLX1
