postmarketOS v25.06 - "the one with systemd" is out now! * Camera for OP6/6T and others πŸ“Έ * #GNOME 48 + 48.mobile.0 * #PlasmaMobile 6.3.5 * #Phosh 0.47.0 with Stevia now installed by default * #Sxmo 1.17.1 (again, but this time with a systemd preview too!) * os-installer images * […]

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (25/2025): Packed with Goodies https://linmob.net/weekly-update-25-2025/ This week really was something: #postmarketOS ship 25.06 (which, among other things, brings systemd) and work to reverse-engineer #VoLTE, #FuriOS 13.1.0 lands with Open-Store support […]

Dear distro maintainers and "i build my own stuff" people: In case you want to check out 0.48 release upfront: we've tagged the first release candidates (0.48~rc1) of #phosh and related components πŸŽ‰ Release is planned 2025-06-30 (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/wikis/Releases) […]

Day out with #phosh and the #OP6 - Woke up with #gnomeClocks ⏰ - Looked up the address of the 🍟 via #Firefox and its mobile config - picked my way via #puremap's offline map feature - Send #SMS via #Chatty - Replied a toot via #tuba - Listened to 🎡 via #gapless - Looked up the appointment time […]

Just in case: If you (unlike me) are using #chromium or #electron apps in #phosh running them like: ``` chromium --gtk-version=4 --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland ``` makes the #OSK unfold automatically now that chromium support text-input-v3. (Thanks Hemish for the […]

One thing that bothered me since some time is that for switching between different 🎢 players required toπŸ”“ the πŸ“± . So e.g. pausing #gnome podcasts to listen to music via #gapless needed ever so many steps. I've thus added a lockscreen plugin to #phosh that tracks […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

Calling all analog film photographers! 🎞️ I've been working on Filmbook, an open-source app to help you keep track of your film usage. It's built with Rust & GTK4/libadwaita for a smooth & modern experience – and it even runs on Linux phones like the Librem […] [Original post on procial.tchncs.de]

If you ever wanted to write a #QuickSetting or #LockScreen plugin for #phosh but didn't fancy #GObject C: Here's an example in #vala : https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/1727 #ValaLanguage

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? #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 […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

#phosh-osk-stub is now #stevia 🎹 . The rename wants to reflect that - it's not just a stub - typing should hopefully be "sweet" (and it allows us to keep the "pos_" symbol prefix). https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/stevia Thanks to @newbyte for the help in finding the name!

phosh 0.47.0 is out πŸš€πŸ“±: This release is a bit smaller than the previous two as we spent more time on other parts of the #LinuxMobile stack but there's still some πŸ› fixes and improvements, check out the full release notes at https://phosh.mobi/releases/rel-0.47.0/ for details or see πŸ‘‡ for a […]

New blog post: GTK 4.18, the PinePhone and Megapixels https://linmob.net/gtk-418-the-pinephone-and-megapixels/

Hopefully a (optional) popup indicating the just typed character in #phosh-osk-stub will help me reduce typos even more. Wanted to add this since ages but I deemed my GTK foo not good enough to have the popover ignore any input and be always properly placed but […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

With the alarm clock waking the phone from suspend we still need to make sure the alarm sound is audible. We thus need it to have a volume level separate from e.g. media, notifications, calls, etc. This is possible with #wireplumber's "role based policy". There's […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (18/2025): Mobile Overlord adds Desktop Mode https://linmob.net/weekly-update-18-2025/ #LinuxMobile #postmarketOS #Mobian #UbuntuTouch #SailfishOS #Phosh #PlasmaMobile #FuriLabsFLX1 #PinePhone #Librem5

#phosh-osk-stub has an #emoji layout since some time but that takes some tapping and scrolling to find an emoji. So I added emojis to the completion bar which makes them easier to select (and the MR also adds some infra to add more "supplementary" results to […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

In case you're using a @frameworkcomputer 13 Laptop and want to use the power LED as status LED for #feedbackd (to be notified aboutnotifications in #phosh, etc) you can use this #udev rule […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

#wlroots is putting out release candidates for 0.19.0 and I'm running my #phoc branch targeting that on my laptop since today and it didn't crash yet (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/merge_requests/599). That's a pleasant surprise. πŸŽ‰ I've also uploaded the wlroots RCs to #debian […]

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (16/2025): Counting Easter Eggs https://linmob.net/weekly-update-16-2025/ #LinuxMobile #UbuntuTouch #SailfishOS #postmarketOS #Librem5 #PureOS #FuriOS #FuriLabsFLX1 #PinePhone

Not much news on other mobile platforms but I needed a reliable clock that wakes me up even when the πŸ“± is suspended so I added some boottime clock support to #gnomeClocks. This together with #feedbackd support can be found in […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

Are there any people using #LinuxMobile (#mobian, #postmarketos, #ubports, maybe on #pinephone or #librem5) at #eh22 @linuxmobile ?

The arguments brought forward by people saying #LinuxMobile can't be a thing sound about the same as why Linux on servers couldn't become a success back then. "Only for enthusiasts/hobbyists", "Look at the security/usability/[whatever]", "Google is the thing" (formerly Microsoft or proprietary […]

Since it's β˜€οΈ outside: if you're using #munin monitoring and #hoymiles inverters with #openDTU: I've written (a while back) a small munin plugin to get some graphs: https://git.sigxcpu.org/cgit/munin-pelletronic/tree/opendtu_ (nothing fancy but maybe useful to others) #balkonsolar #steckersolar

git-buildpackage 0.9.38 is out. It's mostly bugfixes and QoL improvements in preparation for #Debian #Trixie. Details at https://salsa.debian.org/agx/git-buildpackage/-/blob/master/debian/changelog?ref_type=heads#L1 Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release! #gbp #git

Switching #libqmi from gtk-doc to #gidocgen makes doc generation almost 5 times faster and it's less manual work when adding new #qmi services or messages. Hopefully we can land this. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-broadband/libqmi/-/merge_requests/409 #phosh #ModemManager.

Happy birthday #git, 20 years old today (since the initial release)

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (14/2025): Wallpapered Lockscreens https://linmob.net/weekly-update-14-2025/ #LinuxMobile #Phosh #SailfishOS #UbuntuTouch #Amazfish #FuriLabsFLX1 #PinePhone #GTK4 #MobileConfigFirefox #Librem5

I'd like to understand how Android handles some QMI bits and found tooling by @joelselvaraj for that on the @postmarketOS wiki (https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Modem_Debugging). That needs a patched Android kernel, so I took some notes how I got that to work on a Pixel 3a. Just in […]

phosh 0.46.0 is out πŸš€πŸ“± : There's πŸ› fixes and improvements, check out the full release notes at https://phosh.mobi/releases/rel-0.46.0/ for details or see πŸ‘‡ for a short 🧡 πŸ™ to everyone who contributed to this release. #phosh #librem5 #pinephone #gtk #wlroots #gnome #linux #mobile #LinuxMobile 1/N

Nice, just a small fix and #phosh's compositor #phoc runs with #wlroots vulkan renderer on the OnePlus6T:

@fsfe are you in touch with the EU regarding the digital wallet (https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20240223IPR18095/meps-back-plans-for-an-eu-wide-digital-wallet) already? This will/can e.g. be used for the driver license in the future? I skimmed through the documents and didn't […]

In preparation for the upcoming phosh release we've released new versions of #gmobile 0.2.0 and #feedbackd 0.8.0. Feedbackd is now more flexible regarding haptic feedback for events so if e.g. feedback is too intrusive (or too weak) you can consider submitting adjustment for your device to […]

Anyone experience with #shelly support? Our energeymeter broke after 3mo of operation and is now dead since several weeks. All I get from their support is kafkaesque requests. E.g. to film myself pressing a button for 10s to reset the device. Reply mails spawn new tickets which support then […]

A limitation of using #phosh in docked mode (having an external πŸ–₯️ , πŸ–±οΈ ⌨️ attached to your πŸ“± ) was that #phoc wouldn't support multiple workspaces. There's an MR that adds initial workspace support now (which might even land for 0.46):

I didn't get the memo that there is "Landesweiter Warntag" in RLP today and was surprised by the sirens.

The initial draft MR to put a wallpaper on #phosh's lockscreen is now >1.5y old but it's not draft any longer πŸŽ‰ (I'll spare you the details why this took so long).

@benedikt reported some issues with #xwaylandvideobridge and #phosh and it turned out it uses _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY which was proposed > 2️⃣ 0️⃣ years ago to be added to the wm-spec (https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2003-December/001413.html) but never landed although Qt, GTK and […]

Ever since adding the `Haptic` API to #feedbackd for games I wanted to make the `VibraPattern` available to feedback themes as well as this allows for more nuanced feedback. This allows us to e.g. use more subtle feedback for OSK button presses than for πŸ“’ of […] [Original post on ruhr.social]

Is there a fosstodon like #peertube instance? While all videos #phosh has on youtube were posted on the fediverse or phosh.mobi before it would be better to have at least the same kind of collection than on youtube (where we mostly publish to reach people stuck on proprietary OSes). Can […]
