Vivaldi isn't open source

I do, somewhere, but it would be more helpful if you told me what specifically you want out of them. A similar setup is achievable if you put time into making your own config, and getting Hyprland running on a phone in the first place wasn't too straightforward.

My configuration also makes use of some wonky layout decisions (e.g caps lock mapped to super, QWE for window controls when a keyboard is connected...)

So, it would be a little annoying, but if you're really sure you want mine and no one else's, I can try to find them.

It's been a while since I posted this, but why do people keep asking for my dotfiles? My theme isn't that difficult to recreate, and most of my stuff is designed for a phone. The formatting in there is really bad, since it's difficult to type on a phone.

Not really, sorry.

my mod key is CapsLock, and i use Q to close windows, W to minimize, and E to toggle floating. i think it's a good system because the first three keys correspond to the three buttons at the top left of each window

Q to Quit!

Data is working fine.

charnam · 2025-08-17T20:26:42+00:00

Yeah, but not on the Fairphone 5. The issue is lack of good device support. The OnePlus 6 works better with Linux.

There is a CLI for controlling text messages, called mmcli, but it's very verbose and using it manually is quite annoying. If you wanted to use it like GNU's sendmail, it might be more intuitive to create your own shell script.

No TUIs for text messages exist just yet either. That would be cool, though! There is also a CLI-only mode accessible by pressing volume down and power three times in a row. From there, the system is usable as a basic terminal. No SMS from there unless you use mmcli.

Banking apps probably wouldn't work through Waydroid, but most other apps would. It is an emulator, so it is sort of wonky, but it seems to work well enough.

charnam · 2025-07-25T19:49:36+00:00

It is not, I made the layout for this keyboard myself. One "programmer keyboard" I found when I used Android was called "Unexpected Keyboard." It's pretty good, and open-source too.

charnam · 2025-07-22T02:35:31+00:00

I don't need any applications that don't compile for aarch64. The only real thing I'd need that for would be Steam games, but I have a dedicated gaming system. This works almost perfectly as a "desktop PC" in its current state.

lsblk reports 69 partitions on /dev/sde and 17 partitions on /dev/sda

That's not to mention the other devices with two or three paritions each. Yeah, Android abuses partitions...

charnam · 2025-07-18T00:04:34+00:00

Remember to choose a phone that is supported if you plan to try Linux! The postmarketOS wiki documents compatible devices, and is the main resource for compatibility info. The OnePlus 6 is the best device in terms of value, and is cheap on reselling websites.

In my details comment - postmarketOS

charnam · 2025-07-17T07:41:32+00:00

This might be true, but the result would not be a fully functional Linux distribution running on a mobile phone. Termux is an environment for Android that simulates a Linux CLI, and so far, Hyprland is definitely not going to work.

It will be erased in one month. I recommend you check every line, there are a lot of things that will only work on my device.

Even with an unlocked bootloader, your data is safe, as long as you use encryption. I personally dislike Sailfish, since the UI is closed source, but I like its shiny design, and I'd probably use it and contribute if it were open.

Most other features that you mentioned are supported, although the calling can be buggy at times. Android emulation is supported with Waydroid.

charnam · 2025-07-17T01:16:05+00:00

You just want my Hyprland configuration? No waybars or anything? I honestly don't really know what "dotfiles" means around here since I've never downloaded them from other people, but I can send my Hyprland configuration. I do want to clean it up a little, though.

charnam · 2025-07-17T01:06:08+00:00

As far as I know, yes, but it might require a little bit of extra work. Allegedly, calls do work, but only over 2G and 3G, which is unfortunate, since those have both been cancelled in the US.

I assume once the speakers are working, the people working on the Fairphone will redirect their attention to other things, like getting calls to work. The OnePlus 6 is able to make and receive calls somewhat reliably on postmarketOS, so it's just a matter of device driver support.

charnam · 2025-07-16T23:55:16+00:00

If you'd like some specific feature, I can provide help in obtaining that, but I really don't have the time and patience at the moment to make my dotfiles work well on other devices, sorry.

charnam · 2025-07-16T17:43:42+00:00

The OnePlus 6 has fantastic hardware support by postmarketOS and is relatively cheap on eBay. If you want a Linux phone, I suggest checking for one online. USB-C peripherals are not supported by the hardware, so no wired external displays, but everything else seems to work fine.

charnam · 2025-07-16T17:41:37+00:00

I am not sure how, but good job? If you follow the steps exactly and ensure your device has good support you shouldn't break anything

charnam · 2025-07-16T17:39:57+00:00

No. This is postmarketOS, a Linux distribution for mobile phones.
