EliasIn case anyone wants to try out receiving MMS messages on their #librem5 I just wrote down the steps needed for that here, still unofficial and hacky but it does work: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/chatty/-/issues/30#note_151962 #GNU #Linux #ModemManager #libqmi #mmsd #chatty #freesoftware
Jon Arvid@eliasr Tahnks! Good to know! (if I ever get mine ...)
@jonarvid Yes, they certainly do take their time with the shipping.
Look on the bright side, though: by the time you get it, there's a good chance these fixes have been upstreamed so MMS can work for you out of the box. 😉
Ruben@trregeagle Wohoo, congratulations!
Prepare yourself for some tinkering. 🙂
I found the forum at https://forums.puri.sm/ very helpful.
@eliasr yes, I like to contribute bug-fixes: forums.puri.sm/t/found-a-huge-…
LINux on MOBile@trregeagle If I may ask: When did you preorder it?
@linmob I backed them in October 2017. They have done an incredible job of putting this phone together. Did you see the old 2019 article about it: arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/0…
@trregeagle I should have asked more specifically: On which day in October did you order? IIRC, they had sent out estimates to people who ordered until October 20th. I personally ordered on October 23rd, therefore the specific day would be quite interesting for me.
@linmob No problem, I was wrong it was September the 29th not October. My order was also delayed a few extra weeks because they had to dig out the right modem for Australia. I expect it will get held up in customs too... It'll get here when it gets here.
