Watch Divine D. making a test call on Phosh. This was only to try the call application, power consumption and connectivity. There are many other scenarios for such a test, such as during low-power modes, running performance applications, audio quality, audio routing, bluetooth HFP mode.. We will be covering those as the hardware revisions and software improve.

#Linuxmobile #open-source #privacy #dawndrums #divined #dawnos

most of you know me from posting hacks and scripts for #sxmo on #linuxmobile

since my life drastically changed in the last few weeks, i present you today how my functional code looks like:

We usually learn a lot about this on conferences but let's try it here as well:

If you're daily driving #phosh we're keen to here on which phone (or other device)? Which distro do you use and which phosh version are you currently running?

Android & iOS aren't the only mobile OS's that support the Fediverse - UbuntuTouch also has native webapps available in its Open Store app store for Mastodon & Pixelfed :)

Blog post about meshcore-cli the bridge between #meshcore and #linuxmobile ;)

Another #Cellbroadcast bit coming to #phosh / #LinuxMobile. The results of the users choice are set in the modem via a small daemon based on information we're getting from mobile-broadband-provider-info. That way only the tiny UI bit is DE specific, the other bits can be reused on other platforms as is. @devrtz is working on adding persistent storage to keep a message history.

Thanks to @NGIZero for supporting this and @snwh for the UI design.

My Touchpad Emulator project is now in the #AlpineLinux testing repository! My merge request got merged this morning and I was able to install it on my #postmarketOS edge devices! The package name is touchpad-emulator. It turns the touchscreen into a trackpad style mouse to make desktop UIs easier to use on a touch-only mobile device.

I wrote about my experience so far about #linuxmobile on dev.to

If someone were to invest development resources into the Open Source ecosystem right now, improvements to which area would benefit the user experience across all device form factors (desktop, laptop, mobile etc.) the most? You can name both individual applications, libraries and subsystems as well as broader topics like e.g. "messaging".

@MuhammadFreeSoftware @eliasr @Tutanota Please speak for yourself. Lots of us are daily driving #linuxmobile on our devices.

#Newsflash is a great @gnome app that supports synchronization with #NextCloud #News. The new 4.0 Beta release now works much better on my @furilabs #FLX1 phone. Especially the web view is so much smoother.

Always nice to see Sailfish OS getting a shoutout from Research Engineering at the Turing in their FOSDEM 2025 recap. A small nod that means a lot in a sea of Android and iOS.

Full recap here. Great read with personal reflections and devroom gems:
