• Best OS for Pinephone Pro?

  I haven't messed with mine recently so not sure what the status of mobian is right now, but it would be worth giving it a try. Source: about 1 year ago

• Show HN: DivestOS, long term support for end-of-life Android devices

  Sounds like you want https://postmarketos.org/ or https://mobian-project.org/ ? - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Recent work towards mobile GNOME demoed on OnePlus 6 (Video by @calebccff on Twitter)

  This is still in active development. I would recommend trying postmarketOS or Mobian if you have a compatible device. They are both mainly packaged with Phosh, which is also a GNOME project, although most development is headed by Purism. Source: about 2 years ago

• Droidian Linux on Google Pixel 3a

  Droidian is based on Mobian, a distro that aims to adapt Debian to mobile. It uses the same technologies as Ubuntu Touch (libhybris and Halium) to create support for Android devices. Source: about 2 years ago

• We have developed an application that gives people worldwide a tool to boycott brands that have not left Russian and pay taxes there, identifying businesses that still operate by their names. We have added a barcode scanner so that you can scan products directly in the store.

  I have to make compromises often, but I choose to only install programs that can trust after setting up my system because I need to trust the device that I carry around with me 100% of the time in my pocket. I use Mobian on my phone and the only nonfree software installed are a few drivers. Source: about 2 years ago

• Google paid $8B to make its apps default on Samsung phones

  Interesting! I hadn't heard of it, but this looks like a neat project: https://get.pixelexperience.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Should i change the rom?

  I've had my note20 ultra since 2021 and it was great, the phone still works nicely and fast, but now that Samsung stopped giving the big updates, should I install a custom rom? I've been thinking of getting this one Pixel Experience, should I do it? Is it safe? Will it brick my phone? Source: 7 months ago

• Any way to get security update for old pixel phones?

  If you're familiar with the Pixel launcher and overall experience, I'd recommend you have a look at the custom ROM Pixel Experience. It's almost a 1:1 copy of what you get on latest Pixels. Source: about 1 year ago

• Custom rom questions

  And to answer op question Custom rom I think are great- Pixel experience Evolution x Ancient os I have mentioned the famous one only because they get you the most support in community if something gone wrong Though some are also good like nusantara, cherish os, etc. Also oxygen os is also available if you like that.

• Pixel users report the Google app is making their phones overheat - Rolling back to an older version of the software doesn't seem to help.

  Https://get.pixelexperience.org/ There are also other options available, like GrapheneOS and LineageOS. There's a few reviews and such on YouTube. I'm looking into at the minute. Never installed a custom ROM before but it doesn't look to daunting, after a bit of research. Source: about 1 year ago
