So I lost my jingpad when I moved in 2022. I just found it. Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket is I can put on it? Ideally I'd like it to be Linux, not Android. It's starting to look like my options are cybersecurity nightmare, or paperweight.

Boosts appreciated!

@thelinuxcast iPhone is a really nice piece of hardware but I would want more. To be more specific, the firmware would have to be open source and I would like it to run a mobile-optimized Linux distro.

#JingPad was the closest thing to this dream I have but it's a pity that the team and their project ended up dissolving. 😟

They FAILED us! JingOS and their Linux Tablet

@thewk if you click on #JingPad there is a toot from the 19th of Feb with a link to XDA forum with an unlock tool provided by them, not sure if you saw that

It has now been over two weeks since I sent a mail to Jingling, the company behind the #Jingpad in order to get my bootloader unlocked, since they abandoned their os and it's not in a usable state as of now.

No answer. I am afraid the #Jingpad has now officially turned into e-waste :-(

@fedops @urusan @fitheach @OpenComputeDesign

Be careful with the #JingPad. I am fairly certain that project has died and in it's current state it's not very usable. At least for me.

I recently helped a friend to switch his Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 lite over to #/e/-OS. He is rather happy with that.

I also have a Surface Go2 running fedora 35 and like it very much. Cameras don't work though

No Updates on the #JingPad since January and it looks like no commits since then either on #github

Maybe it's time to call the time and date?

JingPad A1 WIFI Version

If you were interesting in the #JingPad, after rumors of trouble and downsizing there's been some confirmation today, and also the announcement of a "45% off" sale with code NEWYEAR.

If you always wanted one, and were looking forward to running a different OS on it anyways, then this might be good news to you, otherwise I am not sure whether I would recommend this tablet now – I never laid my hands on the hardware and forgot most of the reviews I watched.
