Installation
See Installation guide. Flashing can be done using Fastboot (preferred) or Heimdall.
From a prebuilt image
- Download an image from https://images.postmarketos.org/bpo/edge/samsung-manta/
- Uncompress files, e.g.:
xz -d 20240222-1756-postmarketOS-edge-phosh-22.3-samsung-manta-boot.img.xzxz -d 20240222-1756-postmarketOS-edge-phosh-22.3-samsung-manta.img.xz
- Then flash files with fastboot:
fastboot flash boot 20240222-1756-postmarketOS-edge-phosh-22.3-samsung-manta-boot.imgfastboot flash userdata -S 1G 20240222-1756-postmarketOS-edge-phosh-22.3-samsung-manta.img
- Reboot

Main board UART
To simplify getting logs when doing development, it can be useful to connect to UART directly on the main board. UART can be found at a 12 pin connector close to edge of board. The same connector is used for many of samsung's devices, but pinout varies, see Serial_debugging#Main_board_UART_on_exynos_devices. Pad number 1 where the tiny triangle is pointing, and TX (from manta's perspective) is then pad 10, and RX pad 12. The device uses 1.8 V signal strength.
