Introduction
Not much to say, I've been following this project for a while, and have tried It ("The" OS) on several older devices. I know quite a bit about Android devices and have some spare time to edit the Wiki. Using samsung-serranove. Yes.
| Note: Do not ask me to port Linux, or postmarketOS, or LineageOS, to the Apple iPhone 13 Mini (apple-iphone13m). I most certainly will not. This is your only warning. Proceed with caution. |
Occupation
Currently focused on documenting the chaos that is Huawei. See Huawei P8 Lite (huawei-alice) for more information and a definition. Note that "occupation" is only a word, and does not easily describe It. Also see Samsung Galaxy S7 (samsung-herolte) for more. Also get fimiliar with it.
| Note: It can feel like reloading a futuristic weapon. I agree with Samsung's taste in casing. Not with this SoC. Why not use a underclocked Snapdragon 800 or 600? And a denser display panel? "Serrano v3", anyone?! |
Device list
| Device | Notes |
|---|---|
| Apple iPhone SE (1st generation) (apple-n69) | A1723, runs IOS 15.8. Using a ~4Ah Li-Ion cell with aftermarket BMS. Original battery is weak but also works. Has checkm8 vulnerability. UI has funny bugs. It is present. Could be compatible with the generic iDevice port. |
| Doro 8035 (doro-dsb0170) | Doro 8035?, runs Doro DNA. Basic Android with a simplified UI. The display looks bad. Stock firmware page is down! |
| Google Nexus 5X (lg-bullhead) | LGH791, rev_1.0, runs Google's official Android build. Ready for testing. Weak battery. Very internet/streaming oriented design. Why no SD card reader?! |
| Huawei P8 Lite (huawei-alice) | ALE-L21, runs LineageOS + OrangeFox. Ready for testing. 3Ah LiPo cell with original BMS. NFC is gone. Housing almost closes. The SoC is mainline. This phone is a mess. Joker360 got Android Oreo to work, at least. |
| Nokia Lumia 530 (nokia-rock) | RM-1017, runs Windows Phone 8.1. Ready for testing. Locked bootloader. No connection to Store server! |
| OnePlus X (oneplus-onyx) | ONE E1003, runs LineageOS + TWRP. Ready for testing. Rare. Does not boot lk2nd without porting. Could run mainline some day. |
| Samsung Galaxy A21s (samsung-a21s) | SM-A217F, runs LineageOS. Basic modern Smartphone, capable CPU and weak GPU. The SoC is supported in mainline. Has uniLoader support. |
| Samsung Galaxy A3 2017 (samsung-a3y17lte) | SM-A320FN, runs Factory OS version (Android 6). Not going to upgrade past binary revision 1 (Android 7.0) for now. Ready for testing. Weak battery. Very compact design. |
| Samsung Galaxy A5 2015 (samsung-a5) | SM-A500FU, runs lk2nd + pmOS edge + TWRP. Repartitioned for pmOS. Ready for testing. Looks more like a Sony, if you ask me. Well supported. |
| Samsung Galaxy Note II (samsung-t03g) | GT-N7100, MagnaChip variant, runs LineageOS + pmOS edge (recovery). Ready for testing. Horrible display artifacts on mainline! |
| Samsung Galaxy S10 (samsung-beyond1lte) | SM-G973F, runs LineageOS. Very capable SoC, also very common. This form factor hurts my brain. |
| Samsung Galaxy S4 (samsung-jflte) | GT-I9505, runs crDroid Android + TWRP. Ready for testing. Boots lk2nd without porting, only display works! Classic design. Could run mainline some day. |
| Samsung Galaxy S4 Advance (samsung-ks01lte) | GT-I9506, runs lk2nd + TouchWiz Android. Ready for testing. Boots lk2nd without porting. The SoC is mainline. Wrote the Wiki page and ported lk2nd. Classic design. Hot SoC. Could run mainline some day. |
| Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini LTE (samsung-serranolte) | GT-I9195, runs lk2nd + DivestOS Android. Ready for testing. Weak battery. Supported in lk2nd. Classic design. Could run mainline some day. |
| Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Value Edition (samsung-serranove) | GT-I9195I, runs lk2nd + pmOS edge + TWRP. Ready for testing. Large aftermarket battery. Occasional mobile data issue. Plasma does not start. Classic design. Well supported. |
| Samsung Galaxy S4 Value Edition (samsung-jfvelte) | GT-I9515, runs TouchWiz Android. Ready for testing. Boots lk2nd without porting, only display works! Classic design. Could run mainline some day. |
| Samsung Galaxy S5 (samsung-klte) | SM-G900F, runs lk2nd + pmOS edge + TWRP. Ready for testing. Weak battery. Every browser crashes when loading a webpage. Bluetooth is cooked, nothing works. Not sure if mine is broken, firmware issue perhaps? |
| Samsung Galaxy S7 (samsung-herolte) | SM-G930F, runs LineageOS + TWRP. Ready for testing. Does not boot pmOS! Downstream kernel/initfs hangs, or resets the device, depending on installation method. Latest firmware could be the cause. Needs investigation. |
| Samsung Galaxy SII (samsung-i9100) | GT-I9100, runs LineageOS. Ready for testing. Scary custom battery to make it usable. U-Boot does not run. The firmware is very annoying. I would like to run TWRP. It does not agree! |
| Samsung Galaxy S III (samsung-m0) | GT-I9300, runs pmOS edge + TWRP. Ready for testing. Large battery, around 3Ah. Classic design. Works well as a portable audio player. Plasma can fill up memory and slow the UI to a crawl if you push it. |
| Samsung Galaxy S III mini (samsung-golden) | GT-I8190, runs U-Boot + pmOS edge + TWRP. Ready for testing. Weak battery. Classic design. Suprisingly fast. Can work as a basic server or WLAN remote in the current state. |
| Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 (samsung-skomer) | GT-S7710, runs U-Boot + pmOS v25.06. Repartitioned for pmOS. Ready for testing. Fancy and indestructible calculator. GNOME actually works fine on this thing! |
| Sony Xperia SP (sony-huashan) | C5303, runs Resurrection Remix + triple recovery. Ready for testing. Locked bootloader, rooting disallowed (T-Mobile)! Can only flash system, not kernel! |
Testing
Anything in my #Device list is fine to get softbricked. I do not care about reinstalling "The" OS to any of them. I also have some boards available for riskier testing. Including an i9300, that is currenty trapped in "Das U-Boot". It also technically works.
| Also, note that my custom i9100 battery can be jammed into the stericsson devices, should the need arise. |
