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
  • Waydroid
  • 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 :)
