Upstreaming progress on Snapdragon 845 phones: OnePlus 6/6T now working with the Linux -next tree after a focused month of mainlining. Pixel 3 and Shift 6MQ followed with incremental enablement. Hard lessons in patch rebasing, subsystem reviews, and feedback from kernel maintainers. Real steps toward sustainable mainline support. Read more on the blog.

Tested GNOME Night Light on a Pixel 3 (running the latest #Linux, next-20251017 branch, with the Pixel 3 patches and the Night Light patch applied).
With @fizzo ’s patch, most Qualcomm devices can use Night Light too!
Don’t forget — you can control Night Light from the terminal, as I did for this demo. See:
$ gsettings list-keys org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.color

Addressing comment on patch series sent to #LinuxKernel mailing list is exhausting, but it's worth it to see how the code improves.
Hopefully in few weeks we'll have very basic #Pixel3 support in #MainlineLinux
good🌙 everyone!
Tomorrow will squash rest of the changes https://gitlab.com/dhxx/linux/-/commits/b4/pixel-3

First successful boot of the U-Boot bootloader on the #Pixel3XL !
Since I don't have a USB-C serial cable, this is the on-screen output—though the display driver isn’t ready yet.
U-Boot can be controlled using the power button (OK) and volume down button (DOWN).
This also paves the way for proper mainline support for the device, as the previously required hacky Linux kernel revert is no longer needed to boot the #Pixel3 / 3XL.
