Wow I've never seen this before! Usually the whole shell just freezes up or something unless I quickly SSH and kill or something. Definitely an improvement ️

It would be really nice if #Phosh added a pocket detection feature using the proximity sensor. I disabled the PIN login but now it seems to randomly unlock and respond to garbage input in my pocket. I'm not sure what is causing it to randomly wake either, but checking the proximity sensor before allowing a swipe unlock seems like a good idea.

Switching #libqmi from gtk-doc to #gidocgen makes doc generation almost 5 times faster and it's less manual work when adding new #qmi services or messages. Hopefully we can land this. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-broadband/libqmi/-/merge_requests/409

#phosh #ModemManager.

As part of or work on #Cellbroadcast we've documented our current test setup: https://codeberg.org/Phosh/gsm-cell-testing using #osmocom for the mobile network parts and #ansible for deploying #ModemManager on the devices, performing the tests and checking the results.

Thanks to @NGIZero for supporting our work on this.

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (14/2025): Wallpapered Lockscreens

https://linmob.net/weekly-update-14-2025/

I'd like to understand how Android handles some QMI bits and found tooling by @joelselvaraj for that on the @postmarketOS wiki (https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Modem_Debugging). That needs a patched Android kernel, so I took some notes how I got that to work on a Pixel 3a. Just in case this is useful to others: https://honk.sigxcpu.org/con/Booting_an_Android_custom_kernel_on_a_Pixel_3a_for_QMI_debugging.html

@furilabs would there be some interest in opening up the OS and changes you guys are doing to the world? I'd love to see Linux on mobile phones in much more devices, so neatly integrated as you do with the FLX1 #linux #phosh #furilabs #flx1

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (13/2025): Crossing Platforms, Breaking Barriers

https://linmob.net/weekly-update-13-2025/

Nice, just a small fix and #phosh's compositor #phoc runs with #wlroots #vulkan renderer on the OnePlus6T. This needs some more work regarding e.g. alpha blending but it's already usable.

Dear distro maintainers and "i build my own stuff" people:

In case you want to check out 0.46 relesae upfront: we've tagged the first releases candidates (0.46~rc1) of #phosh and related components today.

Release is planned 2025-03-31 (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/wikis/Releases)

The bulk of the changes landed already so hopefully it's only bugfixes from here on.

In preparation for the upcoming phosh release we've released new versions of #gmobile 0.2.0 and #feedbackd 0.8.0. Feedbackd is now more flexible regarding haptic feedback for events so if e.g. feedback is too intrusive (or too weak) you can consider submitting adjustment for your device to https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/feedbackd-device-themes/

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (11/2025): #Libadwaita 1.7 and news from #Sxmo

https://linmob.net/weekly-update-11-2025/

A limitation of using #phosh in docked mode (having an external , attached to your ) was that #phoc wouldn't support multiple workspaces. There's an MR that adds initial workspace support now (which might even land for 0.46) :

I didn't get the memo that there is "Landesweiter #Warntag" in RLP today and was surprised by the sirens. The #pinephone I use for testing catched the #cellbroadcast message :
