That's all I can think of on the spot. Of course there's still the camera and GPU stuff, but these would need their own dedicated threads 
Feel free to hit me up if you want to hack on some of these things, I could likely offer some help and guidance.
The Librem 5 (and mobile GNU/Linux in general) has matured a lot over the years, but there are still some areas where the software stack is behind the hardware capabilities. Some of them are often talked about, such as camera quality or GPU (GLES3/Vulkan/OpenCL), but there are also lesser known ones in need of some plumbing and middleware infrastructure. Maybe you'll find something interesting to hack on there?

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (15/2025): Boot your phone from USB

I'm also using the #Librem5 as my daily, primary phone for nearly three years now. The software keeps improving. I really like to have full control over my phone. And that the software is designed to give the user freedom and power.

is it too late to join the #pipewire party? i hope not, or else my #flx1 will be sad
all applications that use pipewire can finally utilize the camera (adding to our list of v4l, qtmultimedia and android apps)
one issue we are facing is that aperture is not very happy with the back cameras, so applications like #GNOME snapshot or authenticator will have the preview flipped. captured frames are surprisingly not flipped tho:

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

Version 0.2 of my eSIM Manager app is out!
We've got significant UI improvements alongside many other additions such as an app icon, providing environment variables for lpac via the command line, error handling, eUICC 'notification' handling, viewing of eUICC chip info and appstream metainfo data!

It's obvious that AOSP is on borrowed time. There's only so long before Google closes the source (eg Project Fuschia ) or limits enough it might as well be closed (ie makes it even more dependent on a million closed source Google apps).
Enjoy it while it lasts (which may not be long), but let's get going creating, using and supporting Linux phones so we have a decent option when open source Android fully dies!
Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (13/2025): Crossing Platforms, Breaking Barriers
Initial release of the #immich upload daemon is ready for people to use and report the tons of issues it probably has lol. You can find it here https://github.com/luigi311/immich_upload_daemon Feel free to open any issues/PR. Its still missing the charging only option but the networking features are there so you can set wifi only and/or SSID checking and you can even just check for metered connections. Mostly developed on my and for my #FLX1 via remote vscode.

Dear @Mer__edith and the the amazing @signalapp team,
After the last update, the Signal "desktop app" is requiring us to launch the mobile app - however, many of us do not have the Android or any other "mobile" version of the Signal app any more.
We are a large (by our standards) group of #Linux phone users, and your "desktop" app is our "mobile" app : )
Our previous phones on which #SignalApp was initially activated was an Android or Apple device and we have since then completely migrated to #Linuxphones. Some of us may have registered Signal on #signalcli, Flare, #Molly, Signal Android in #WayDroid, etc.
The #mobileLinux community is growing - we have members spanning a good number of projects and devices, e.g.
- @purism #Librem5 and #LibertyPhone running #Debian-based #PureOS #GnuLinux, #Alpine-based #PostmarketOS or #Mobian,
- @PINE64 #Pinephone and PP Pro running #ManjaroARM, #SailfishOS, etc.
- @furilabs #FLX1 running #Droidian-based #FuriOS,
- a wide variety of Android phones (including OnePlus 6, Google Pixel 3, #Fairphone 4 & 5) running #Alpine-based @postmarketOS ,
- @volla , #Fxtec and #Brax3 devices running #UbuntuTouch by @ubports,
- devices running @mobian which is part of #Debian project, etc.
[Apologies to any project I may have failed to include - you are all appreciated]

Since #immich still has a lot of time before we get a usable #mobilelinux client that would help us backup our images easily. I am working on a daemon that will upload images automatically. What features would you be interested in?
Current ideas so far
1. Wifi only
2. SSID checking
3. Charging only
4. Systemd service for autostart and logging
5. Specifying paths
Anyone have suggestions for a #mobile that can run any versions of #linux #mobilelinux ? I had some research that’s many years old now and have lost touch. My goal is really to just have a phone shaped device I can use to browse the web/mastodon instead of using my ios based device.
looking into getting an emotional support pmOS device. any suggestions?
Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (12/2025): GNOME 48 and other goodies
didn't realize that @Liberux posted the modem they are going to use. Is anyone on #linuxmobile familiar with the Snapdragon X62 and how well its supported on mainline? Looking at the specs its really new and modern so performance and efficiency should hopefully be amazing. That of course does depend on if power saving modes can even be activated. What are everyone's thoughts/experience on it? Also wonder if its hooked up via usb similar to #librem5
