Users owning this device

  • DolphinChips (Notes: Current daily driver)
  • Lexpdev (Notes: not turning on, probably bricked)
  • Xproot (Notes: (2GB/32GB) Battery really degraded. Doesn't have pmOS installed)

Issues

  • Phone gets stuck somewhere when shutting down when using Nougat firmware
  • X11 doesn't work (requires kernel patching)

How to enter flash mode

Power + Volume Down buttons or use adb reboot bootloader

Installation

Note Warning: Flashing lk2nd is required, as it is a hard dependency. Without it the mainline kernel will not select the display panel (resulting in black screen on boot).
$ pmbootstrap init # choose Vendor: qcom Device codename: msm89x7
$ pmbootstrap install
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_lk2nd
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs

WiFi/BT

Wifi is not supported by default because system partition contains the WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin.

Copy WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin to /lib/firmware/postmarketos/wlan/prima/WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin
