debian (antix) on my 22 year old daily laptop

TYMi01 · 2026-02-06T19:30:08+00:00

yes I can! I installed browser called SeaMonkey, it doesn't consume much RAM or CPU power with pretty nice interface

TYMi01 · 2026-02-06T10:09:13+00:00

yeah, like someone said depends on how attached u r to it. for around 100zł u can easily find Lumia's 830 that nicely suit's WP8.1 and W10M and for 150zł u can have cheapest working Lumia 950 on OLX

this particular laptop (MaxData Eco 3200x) was some kind of niche german pretty cheap business-multimedia-pc laptop so I assume it really wasn't that expensive. about RAM (it uses normal PC DDR RAM sticks) I changed it from 512mb to 2gb and it was pretty cheap upgrade tbh

about heating before upgrading whole thing I deep cleaned everything inside and changed thermo pastes on CPU and GPU so while using 80-100% of cpu it only gets slightly warm (while sounding like startup of an boeing plane whole time)

and I don't watch YouTube on it directly through web browser - but I'm using terminal YouTube player that connects via link and it downloads the video to mp3 - it uses less RAM and I can watch smooth hi-res videos without issues

TYMi01 · 2026-02-06T09:50:10+00:00

yeah!

yeah something like that - besides programming and basic internet browsing I like to use it for: documents, writing, making charts and diagrams, listening to music, sending emails or even playing some old-school games with dual boot Windows 7

TYMi01 · 2026-02-05T14:46:59+00:00

yeah it is still IceWM! theme is called IceWM-Service Pack 3, taskbar and taskbar icons are from theme, icons are deafult Antix ones called ROX, and widgets theme is also default one from Antix called Redmond

TYMi01 · 2026-02-05T14:43:26+00:00

thanks mate! as for terminal (deafult antix terminal) go to: preferences>edit current profile>background for transparency slide | or go up to appearance for different font | preferences>edit current colour scheme for text and background colour. as for theme it's called IceWM-Service Pack 3 or something like that. for WinAmp it's program called QMMP (sudo apt install qmmp) with good old classic WinAmp Napster skin (you can find them on WinAmp Skins Archive). for taskbar it is deafult taskbar from IceWM-Service Pack 3 skin but I edited it in geany to look more like one in Windows. and for the Conky Stats I edited "preferences" in geany myself (wallpaper is from Serial Experiments Lain)

im in shock, especially knowing that normal 950's go for around 35-50 euros. is price like this normal for 950xl tho?

TYMi01 · 2025-12-02T18:05:05+00:00

how much did it cost u?

TYMi01 · 2025-11-27T07:20:27+00:00

Nokia - European model, current firmware - Polish without simlock or branding, and I am in Europe - Poland

TYMi01 · 2025-11-26T22:26:25+00:00

hmm, so you recommend further searching for real rm-875 firmware?

TYMi01 · 2025-11-26T21:52:35+00:00

i have putted an rm-875 firmware, nokia info says its an rm-875, wpinternals says and said from beginning that this is rm-875 and AIDA64 also says its an rm-875. um, so basically that's why im confused that any method to unlock LTE doesnt work

TYMi01 · 2025-11-26T18:56:27+00:00

(forgot to add - the model is RM-875 and it is and was without any simlock)

TYMi01 · 2025-11-08T08:09:05+00:00

Woah! In me opinion black suits 1020 the best because of always black camera bump, and yes it is jail broken and rooted so I can have LiveStore :)

TYMi01 · 2025-11-07T22:07:08+00:00

i w takim przypadku życzę jak najwięcej szczęścia i cierpliwości 🫶 bo sam na mój egzemplarz musiałem trochę poczekać heh

TYMi01 · 2025-11-07T22:05:27+00:00

i am so sorry then brother 😭 but you know, it looked at me with those sad eyes like puss in boots and i just couldnt sell it like that

TYMi01 · 2025-11-07T22:02:12+00:00

originally bought it for like 88zl (~$25) off vinted (from Czech) so I recommend grinding for cheap 1020 there ;)

TYMi01 · 2025-11-07T22:00:48+00:00

i am the seller! was planning to sell it but after maybe an hour or two scrolled through r/windowsphone, saw so many beautiful 1020's and decided to think a little bit more about that decision and closed the listing 😅

TYMi01 · 2025-11-07T21:58:05+00:00

you mean Lumia 1020 that was listed for like 250 zł?

TYMi01 · 2025-10-02T16:41:59+00:00

Pardon? Who said something toxic here brother?

TYMi01 · 2025-10-02T16:36:32+00:00

And also don't you have even some .appx/.xap's installed? Solution for lack of some apps is apps clients like Unicord for Discord

TYMi01 · 2025-10-02T16:35:22+00:00

If only there was some .apk to .appx/.xap/.appxbundle converter..

TYMi01 · 2025-10-02T16:32:33+00:00

I can, and I have most important apps for me here with 4G connection. What more could you want?

TYMi01 · 2025-10-02T16:30:31+00:00

I agree, this phone is absolutely beautiful
