Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (25/2025): Packed with Goodies
https://linmob.net/weekly-update-25-2025/

This week really was something: #postmarketOS ship 25.06 (which, among other things, adds systemd) and work to reverse-engineer #VoLTE, #FuriOS 13.1.0 lands with Open-Store support (for #UbuntuTouch apps) and plenty of other improvements, #PlasmaMobile share detailed log of all the fixes and improvements they managed to land in the past year (and what's to come), Jolla announce free #SailfishOS updates for all #JollaC2 customers, I managed to interview #Liberux about their Nexx phone - but there's way more still, including a packed Apps section. Enjoy!

@furilabs have you considered moving away from Github (owned by Microsoft)?

For someone like me who is looking for independence from "Big Tech", seeing that you are on Github is a really bad sign, and it makes me reluctant to contribute.

Look at others, like Gnome, Purism, postmarketOS, Mobian, and so on, they all use something else. I think they know that Github is bad for them, both in practice and in principle.

Every so often something comes along to remind me that, while the #LinuxMobile ecosystem isn't perfect, its so much better than what is going on in the mainstream. The #liberuxNexx won't be perfect and it may not get the funding it needs, but at least its not the #T1 on #TrumpMobile. According to their terms of purchase:

" T1 Phone sales are non-refundable and subject to pricing changes after orders are placed..."

They could charge you more for your preorder just cause. Wild times.

Speaking of great things for Linux Mobile that @nlnet and @NGIZero are funding:

One of them is the OpenIMSD project, which has the goal of getting VoLTE on Qualcomm based phones working with postmarketOS, @mobian and all other Linux (Mobile) distributions.

As a precursor to that, we need to be able to create VoLTE-related QMI traces from Android phones. @lynxis figured out a good method and wrote a blog post about it:

@devrtz @NGIZero @snwh …and as a service to user interfaces/DEs that don't want to add explicit #CellBroadcast support #cbd can now send notifications. Just enabling the setting is enough.

This is configurable on a severity level so you could use a system modal dialog for high severity events and notifications for low severity ones. This is (likely) how we'll wire it up in #phosh once everything has settled in.

Mad props to @camelCaseNick for successfully implementing the first phase of @philippsauberzweig's proposed solution for GNOME Calendar's general layouts and formfactors design overhaul (see gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c), a project that has been in the work for many months to solve gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c !

gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c has landed in the main branch, you can now try it out in the nightly flatpak version.
