Since Jan 11, 2022, I have worked on getting the Nexus 5 over on Mobian.

Here's a year of progress.

I will update my repo soon.

Awesome. In pmOS there are issues related to the GPU like not being able to turn the screen off, or X11 not working (only wayland), is there a status overview or list of nonworking features?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yup!

Not working:

Audio (BT Only)
Camera
GPU Accel
SIM
Thermal Conditioning
X11 (Screen tears [fixed only on pmOS])

Partial:

GPU
Kernel (Sometimes opps/panics.)
Wi-Fi (2.4GHZ only)

Working:

CPU
Touch
BT
OTG

Not tested:

GPS

HDMi

I apologize for the late response, Jerboa doesn't notify me.

I will adress Audio/HDMI/GPS on flto's kernel.

Wonderful. Heh, my reply's MUCH late but.. How's Phosh running without GPU accel? I'm charging my hammerhead again to try Mobian instead, hope its easy :)
