The project, developed in partnership with veteran free software developer Rob Savoye, aims to create a fully free and open mobile platform, from the firmware to the operating system.
Only if you happen to have one of the handful of supported devices. I, unfortunately have a handful of old phones, none of them are ever on the list of supported devices when it comes to these linuxphone/androidrom sites. I routinely check them all.
Except one that’s got a mostly working community build for postmarketos, but the install docs run me around in circles. At one point I had 20 tabs open of linked docs and still couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to do.
UBPorts did nicely tell me that my plugged in phone wasn’t supported, and while I could choose from the manual dropdown list, I really, REALLY shouldn’t.
We need more drivers for devices, and easy installers. Or at least archwiki level of documentation.
