How to enter flash mode

  • Power + Volume Down buttons or use TWRP reboot bootloader, or adb reboot bootloader

Installation

See also Installation guide

Notes

  • charging-sdl was tested manually through the debug shell and in plasma-mobile.
  • I suggest nmtui to connect to WiFi

Mainline

What works:

  • Booting to pmOS
  • eMMC
  • Touch
  • WiFi + BT (needs firmware package and msm-firmware-loader installed)
  • Display (using simpledrm)
  • Power button
  • USB Networking

What doesn't

  • Everything else

Notes:

  • To append the dtb do: cat .output/arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz .output/arch/arm64/dts/qcom/msm8937-motorola-cedric.dtb > Image.gz-dtb from the kernel source directory
  • You need lk2nd to run mainline, see GitHub repo below:
