Alright, that's it! I've had enough! I'm flashing #postmarketOS for the LAST time!
Wait! What? But that would mean.....

Exciting @williamtries ! Good luck on this journey. GNOME on phones is only suitable for adventurous people for now, but you seem to know your way around 👏

Hey, is there anyone in #Leipzig or at least germany who thinks they are able to fix my bricked #oneplus6 and #oneplus6t ? I have multiple and I managed to brick them all after experimenting with #postmarketos and #gnomemobile for a while. I don't know how I managed to so consistently brick them.. I tried some stuff recommended on xda devs and other forums but never got them to work again.

@der_istvan this sounds unusual... maybe @cas has some ideas for how to recover

@williamtries@floss.social avatar

I just posted a short tutorial on setting up a simple #LLM on your #oneplus6 running #postmarketOS . The LLM (7b alpaca in this case) is not terribly accurate but possibly useful in some cases.

Warning! You phone will get hot. I haven't tested it long enough to know if it will harm your device, but do be careful.

Oh! I have a website now! Wow! My history with websites is hit and miss, so enjoy it while it lasts. I have half a dozen posts in the works already.

#postmarketos + #oneplus6 + #gnomemobile = Hands down the most enjoyable #LinuxMobile experience I have ever had and I've been testing #LinuxMobile since 2019. We are on to something here.
I'm very tempted to daily drive...

@evn you can help by filing bugs with more info for the stuff you found 😉

I gave KDE Plasma Mobile another go. It improved a LOT over the past few months. No crashes yet! It's a lot more stable now. Although not as stable as Phosh.

I like their whole "just copy Android" philosophy. Everything feels familiar and intuitive. I might keep it like this.

Avisando,

@fell Thank you for your detailed response.

If Firefox is a little difficult to use on a small screen maybe "Angelfish" would suit your needs better.

@fell@ma.fellr.net avatar

@Avisando I have very specific needs regarding extensions, so I'll stick to Firefox.

(I use uBlock + "I still don't care about cookies" + Redirector to make the web usable for me)

Not much to say yet, but it feels quite smooth and I love the mode dark wallpaper.

@DrewNaylor @farooqkz If only there was a used market for products where they could be obtained at a sometimes way lower price ;-)

@linmob my cell plan is paid by my employer, so not really...

that and there is no T-Mobile coverage in my area

#Apple doing it's best to disallow alternative app stores on #iOS despite EU ruling. #Google gearing up to ban sideloading apps on #Android in Singapore.

Meanwhile over here, my #OnePlus6 running #LineageOS happily downloads apps from #Github for me 😀

ibannieto, to linuxphones

I'm unable to fix my #oneplus6 with the Windows tools. I can install the #qualcomm driver and the device is detected by windows but not in the msm tool (wrong COM port) so I can't reinstall #postmarketos nor the original #firmware. Any advice? I don't want to buy another phone again 😕

@ibannieto I was planning on giving PostMarket on my OnePlus6T when I upgrade in a few months - I guess I should put that one hold?

craftyguy,
@craftyguy@freeradical.zone avatar

@ibannieto @cas maybe you know of some trick here?

fell, to OnePlus
@fell@ma.fellr.net avatar

I did it! I just picked up a used OnePlus 6T from Cex for 220 AUD (~135€).

I can't wait to put @postmarketOS on it and be one of the cool kids at FOSDEM!

LovePoison,

@fell @sandwich @postmarketOS Hmm, fair. I do have to use mine, but even if I didn't having a native android slot is useful for some stuff. Specially battery life as I've seen

fell,
@fell@ma.fellr.net avatar

@LovePoison @sandwich @postmarketOS For now, I want to use the OnePlus 6 as a secondary phone. I hope that on ordinary days I can just go out with the Linux phone and leave the Android one at home.

The upgrade process went perfectly :blobcatblep:

Tysm to all the @postmarketOS devs who made this happen!

@dylanvanassche has done an incredible amount of reverse engineering work to enable sensor support for SDM845 devices in #postmarketOS! 🎉 🎉 🎉

The accelerometer (auto screen rotation), ambient light sensor (auto-brightness), and compass now work properly on phones like the #OnePlus6 and #SHIFT6mq! Amazing work!!!

@craftyguy @dylanvanassche Amazing work! I've been testing this MR on my OnePlus 6T for a while now and it works perfectly. I'm so happy it's been merged! Thanks to all of those involved!

Now that I'm back into buisness, and before going back to work tomorow, I wrote a small tip in @postmarketos wiki (in the #sxmo on the #op6 page): https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Sxmo:Oneplus6#Proximity_Sensor

stepan, to linuxphones

I just installed #PostmarketOs with #Posh on the #OnePlus6 phone.
First impressions:
🔵 I expected GTK3+ apps more responsive and more adapted to mobile screen.
🔵 Touch gestures are often misinterpreted - swipes recognized as click and so on
🔵 Its very laggy

📱 :linux:

sesivany,
@sesivany@floss.social avatar

@stepan it's only GTK4+libadwaita apps that are really responsive and even those can open a GTK dialog that is not responsive at all.

@stepan have you tried plasma mobile on it though?
