Free Software hacker by coincidence, maintainer by necessity.

I have made it one of my life goals, to at some point be able to provide a family member with a Linux phone they can actually use.

Finally finished my clunky #postmarketos test rig for mainlining the a5y17lte. I took a very bust up Samsung A5, wired up push buttons for the main buttons, managed to solder to the very small pitch serial line (only get Tx from the phone), printed a case with my 3d printer and then attached a usb-serial converter (1.8v) and it works.
Now to work on the actual kernel! #DecemberAdventure
Hey - please don't send LLM generated code to the LKML.
come on y'all.
Putting LLM generated code up for code review that you haven't looked at thoroughly already isn't asking for code review, it is offloading your work to someone else. If you feel like that's the only way you can actually save time with these tools, all that actually means is that you feel like you are saving time because you made someone else do the work in a way that wasn't obvious to either of you.

Look ma, no fork! 🎉

5,000 Jolla Phones pre-ordered in one week, driven by the community.

People showed there’s real demand for a European Linux phone built differently. The Jolla Phone reached 5,000 pre-orders organically, through community sharing and word of mouth. Thank you. We couldn’t have done this without you.

Next stop: 10,000 pre-orders to unlock The Other Half and open source the modular hardware & software interfaces.

The #FOSDEM FOSS on Mobile devroom schedule is out!

https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/track/foss-on-mobile/

It's going to be a great day of talks on AOSP, Mobile Linux and more; covering the full stack from SoCs to app ecosystems.

14 full length talks, 7 lightning talks, 23 speakers.

🎙️ In our very timely new podcast episode 46 "Summer Events Special" that we are totally releasing just a few days after it was recorded, @RannyBergamotte, @ollieparanoid, @z3ntu and @linmob talk about Linux Mobile action at #defcon33, #why2025 and #froscon2025, all which took place between August 7 and 17 this year.

We get into how DEF CON in Las Vegas compares to the European events, what it's like to be at a hacker camp, plenty of Linux Mobile talks at FrOSCon, and a lot more!

Special thanks to @timegearmonkey for editing (first time editing a postmarketOS podcast episode)! ❤️

I wrote a blogpost about an automatic phone call testing PoC I did recently.
The setup can detect a failed phone call. When properly integrated into the postmarketOS Hardware CI setup, it will automatically detect phone call reliability/quality issues.

Hopefully this can take away the fear of the phone not working when you need it and remove a roadblock for daily driving #linuxmobile.

I'm a hacker (smanettone) from Italy.

@spipau @tbernard Thus, rather than forking Android, we'd be better advised not to build on top of AOSP and instead use the free software platforms we already have as a basis, making use of the huge amount of developer effort and research put into free software Linux distributions and apps running on them, and making that available to smartphones.
@postmarketOS is laying the groundwork here and initiatives like @modal are pushing to build the remaining pieces to have something that can compete.

My U-Boot SPL work to replace the proprietary bl2.bin blob on Amlogic gxbb and gxl SoCs finally got merged into the Amlogic custodians tree \o/

I would like to thank everyone that got involved in one way or another into this effort, you're awesome!

But it isn't over yet! I have more things planned in that area ^^ any help welcome as always
