What does the SIM card do? - Lemmy.ca
I’m not too knowledgeable about cellular equipment, but I was wondering how much
of the phone based data actually gets to the SIM card. Would it be possible, by
sniffing the connection to the card, to listen to the content of calls and
mobile data? Or would it be possible to get tower information in a similar
format to rayhunter? I understand there is some encryption, would getting the
keys for that enable some of the previous ideas?

4G modem breakout + Linux computer as alternative to a phone - Lemmy.World
Would it be possible to use Linux PC working with - for example - Quectel modem
broken out on a PCB with a SIM card slot and an antenna as a substitute for a
phone? More specifically: - are linux drivers for such modems readily available?
The ones I’ve been working with are basically USB devices, they work with
raspberry pis but I have no idea if the drivers are custom/propertiary and if
you can phone/send SMS through them. In the application I’ve seen they only
provide access to the internet. - do linux apps working as contact
list/dialer/SMS receiver/sender exist? I’m tired of buying new phone every few
years and more and more of control various OS owners want over devices, and I
don’t care if I would look like a mad man using a weird/ugly/inconvenient device
as long as I can mix and match components and repair it myself. Just wanted to
ask in case if anybody happens to knows answers to the questions above.
Latest update PostmarketOS Edge lead to Pinephone Beta internal error.
Loading Failure.
Will likely need a reinstall.

Regardless of the distribution, would it be possible to have a phone that can be
simplified to include only the features you want? For example, I would only want
a calendar, notes, a calculator, calls and messages. I wouldn’t want a browser,
an app store or any other way to easily install them. Is this possible on a
Linux mobile distro? Does it require a lot of work, like making a specific
distro for it?
Question about Linux mobile - Lemmy.ca
I have several questions about Linux on mobile 1. Why can you brick android
phone by installing custom ROM. But such thing can’t happen on x86? Or how
likely is that. From what I read it is because it doesn’t have bios and you can
overwrite phone hardware drivers how true is that with recent devices? 2. Is
that true that on Halium kernel distribution you can’t use universal packages
(flatpak, nix, snap, appimage), only precompiled for its specyfic system only?
3. Is there any good list how to start with Linux on phone? List of devices
(probably oneplus 6, pixel 3a, fairphone 4), distros (probably Ubuntu touch,
mobian, postmarketOS). The smoothest experience, preferably with dual boot. 4.
Is there some recomended tablets to test with Linux mobile? It seems preferred
way for me considering calling, camera and other issues which are on Linux
mobile. Is recomended devices from postmarketos table tab? 5. Why battery life
is worse on Linux than on android, I watched some reviews and they complained
about short battery life. 6. I watched someone run Linux distros by clicking on
android apptray and it opened Linux desktop, but it was not mobile how it is
called and is there a way to run it with plasma mobile? 7. Is porting for newer
devices getting easier with time or is getting harder? 8. How is process of
jailbreaking with locked bootloader done? Can it be automated? 9. Is there
megatread or some wiki with some basic question like these? Thanks for answers.
Sorry for long text.
