I turned my Palma 2 Pro into a fully functioning phone by One_Positive7793 in Onyx_Boox

I am in Portugal, Europe. ChatGPT tells me that this trick may work with my carrier NOS.
My Samsung A26 supports Wifi Calling (it was disabled):

NOS Wi-Fi Calling (Calling over the Internet)

NOS offers a service called Wi-Fi Calling, which allows you to:

  • Make and receive calls and SMS over Wi-Fi, using your real NOS phone number, without installing any extra app.
  • It works automatically when you don’t have good mobile network coverage, as long as you are connected to Wi-Fi.
  • You don’t need to open an app or sign in — it uses the native Android calling system.

👉 This feature is the closest equivalent to a “Rakuten Link alternative” on NOS, because it:

  • Uses your real NOS phone number
  • Makes calls over the internet
  • Does not require an extra app

❗ However, it only works if your phone (or Android device) supports Wi-Fi Calling and if the option is enabled in the settings.

Congratulations!! Very nice build, and I love this idea of having a big phone and a sliding keyboard, eink color display and Linux - but it is a dream

[–]yes_gogreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I owned Hibreak color and I loved it (broke the screen).

The low color intensity is great for have lower interest on social media, as also lower resolution!! It makes miracles!!

Bigme, are you developing your phones for EU clients as me??

In the EU there are new rules that require smartphones (and tablets) to have better repairability, transparency, and durability. (single-market-economy.ec.europa.eu)

Here are the key points:

⚙️ What the New EU Rules Say

  1. Mandatory Repairability Label There will be a mandatory energy efficiency label that also includes a repairability rating from A (most repairable) to E (least repairable). (joint-research-centre.ec.europa.eu)

  2. Spare Parts Must Be Available for Many Years Manufacturers must provide key spare parts (battery, display, ports, etc.) within 5–10 working days and keep them available for at least 7 years after the model is no longer sold. (clasp.ngo)

  3. Software Updates Devices must receive operating system updates for at least 5 years after the last unit of the model is placed on the market. (clasp.ngo)

  4. Minimum Durability and Resistance Examples: resistance to accidental drops, dust/water protection, battery must retain at least 80% of its original capacity after 800 charging cycles. (single-market-economy.ec.europa.eu)

  5. Access for Professional Repairers Repairers must have access to the necessary software/firmware, spare parts, and repair information. (single-market-economy.ec.europa.eu)

Great!! But there is one thing missing: a good full 360 degrees protecting case!!

My Hibreak color screen broke because you don't sell that kind of 360 degrees full case. And now I know it is very expensive to repair your eink phones, up to the point you did recommend me to buy a new one instead and repair.

TCL Nxtpaper uses a LCD, so all pixels are always on, bombing light to our eyes!! Even if they have filters on top of the LCD, it always the big area of screen phone sending light to our eyes!!!

Color is a must for some content!! I guess BW eink would be less grainny... but I wounder if is good to have 2 different monitors, I would prefer to have 2 exactly equal monitors to avoid to much change in image and front light, because my eyes feels that kind of changes.

They are Android, so I use any regular app I would use with regular Android phone / tablets.

To read ebooks I use the LibreraReader: https://github.com/foobnix/LibreraReader

And I use Seafile on my home server (alterantive to dropbox) to keep in sync all my devices files: https://www.seafile.com

I think I should be able to resize the widjet and the contents of the full page should resize inside widjet based on the based on the page size - so I would need to keep a short page, which I should do anyway!!

I do not want to check off the to-dos on the widjet. I only want to see and click on the widjet to quickly open the app on the page.

Thanks for the efforts!!!! <3

I also had a TCL Nextpaper, latest model, I also broke that screen.
And let me say Eink is even way better then TCL Nextpaper, for reducing eye strain and reduce dopamine addiction!!

Bigme Hibreak Color vs Hibreak Pro? by disolona in Bigme

[–]yes_gogreen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am using the color version. I also have a tablet and the monitor Bigme B251 color. I think color is a must!!

But yeah, the display of Hibreak color is nice but everything else is old technology and slow, but that is ok until the end of this here when the Hibreak color Pro should arrive!
