So phones HAD Linux after all

A QR code is actually a type of 2D matrix barcode

Just say the word "matrix" and you've got me interested now.

[@eclair1616]

Which barcode in itself is morse code but stretched vertically

Maybe you would prefer some Linux development? Asahi Lina does that :)

[@ferosden]

You really should just move to technical videos like this, they do the best on your channel. Here's a suggestion, get a thinkpad w500 and do the quadcore mod. That would be a good watch

[@kilospade]

Can you review KDE Plasma Mobile?

[@search_history]

...i find it funny as a s20 tester of ubuntu touch user i love this vid

[@Kalak-n7j]

You are the first vtuber i enjoy watching!

[@Cuby3212]

SILENCE, new Melori video just dropped! 🗣️🔥

[@devilzhauz]

Yo Mel, phones do have linux built in them, its the linux kernel, but the linux file system is partitioned, and its locked down just like in ChromeOS and if you wanna unlock the linux access in the phone, you can root it.

[@TheComputerGuy124]

2:57 typo in subtitles "whereas" here it's right here in the bottom corner

at first i thought this was a reaction video till I realized that the vtuber's mouth was moving in sync with the audio

[@MimiWhiskers]

I want to see a web server running on this thing, Or at the very lease ssh into it. Its Linux after all! OH, I did a little bit of research, Apt or Manually installing deb packages won't work, Because the filesystem set to read only. Apparently it's by design For security reasons...

[@Yaksha_Indra]

Guys, list out phone in 2024 that is good for mod

[@fluoriteByte]

(about you not finding the Java binary for UBTouch) you can download a Java OpenJDK JRE for aarch64 and use that to run the minecraft server

[@MeloriTensei]

I’ll give that a shot!

[@NekoMimiOfficial]

Ayyy melo posted! There is also a port of alpine for phones iirc

[@SoundToxin]

postmarketOS is based on Alpine.

[@neilcatubig592]

why not try the postmarketos based on linux?

[@MeloriTensei]

I did a quick search and it seems that for the phone I’m using, Redmi Note 7, it’s still at the “Testing” phase. I’m not really at the level where I’m confident to build one on my own. I’d rather wait for a prebuilt image to become a thing first. But yea, thanks for suggesting it!

[@SoundToxin]

@@MeloriTensei pmbootstrap is pretty friendly to new users I'd say. I would worry more about the amount of things that won't work once it's installed than the install process itself.

[@xandaland19044]

i have it in my xiaomi redmi note 5 pro because i got bored of android edit: switched to droidian with phosh and it works!!!

[@nostalgianinja]

Turns out, the Redmi Note 7 has partial (Testing) support for PostMarketOS. Maybe it's worth your while to tinker with that and see how far you can get with it?

[@anarhyxd]

switch from GNOME to KDE Plasma Mobile, your experience will be waaay better, trust me:3 ($5 98 PC video when? /j)

[@mallbert]

after watching this video I checked if Ubuntu Touch would work on any device I have and there are only 24 devices which are supported lmao In fact none of my 10 devices are supported

[@NekoMimiOfficial]

Btw if you are trying to find arm applications for I want to touch and they are not available in the default repo you can try to download the deb packages from a raspbian repository and then manually install them through apt, though this may very well break your packages but it's at least a viable option you've got if you want to test things

[@legendyang]

Have you tried to install the arm64 java? the .deb for debian

[@MeloriTensei]

Not yet, but I’ll look forward into trying that!

[@igorgiuseppe1862]

14:00 try an password that is not sequential, it make more sense to swipe like that

[@crism8868]

15:29 that's really interesting. If I had to take a wild guess the first time it asked for your passcode is to log in as your user, the second time is to grant sudo permission. The same workflow makes sense on Linux desktop but it does feel very odd on mobile

[@pxldud]

Genuine question: how the eff did you install Ubuntu Touch on a Redmi Note phone without turning off the bootloader - have you had it unlocked beforehand or did you just-- I seriously wanna know what I've been doing wrong trying to install it on a Redmi Note 9

[@MeloriTensei]

Yea, I’ve had mine unlocked prior. It was quite a jungle to go through but it still worked regardless.

[@rpst39]

i used it for a while but I was mostly using waydroid and my device was kinda abandoned so I came back to android. also I think ubuntu touch has read only root, you might be able to change it but an update would revert it all back. it also uses the regular android kernel for the device which makes things generally work better but breaks some linux stuff. no X11 etc. for example. something like postmarketos is a bit more regular linux. but depending on the device it can be a bit less functional.

[@deathmist_]

Android kernel (which you can change the configuration of and still patch source code of btw) isn't really the reason X11 is broken, it's the userspace stack you run on top of the kernel. Ubuntu Touch (since 20.04 anyway) has Xwayland which works possibly after a bit of tweaking from device porter side. libhybris even has patches floating around for accelerated X11 rendering backend which you can run full Xorg-based desktops on top of not that basically any of them would be very usable on a phone-sized display (especially those running legacy UI toolkits without proper touch support) :p

[@rpst39]

@@deathmist_ thank you for the correction.

[@L0tsen]

I installed this on my samsung galaxy s7 since no other os was updated at that time (now ubuntu touch isnt updated for it either).

[@SoundToxin]

It looks like there is some support for postmarketOS on it and has many confirmed users/device-owners on the wiki.

They always had. Android is a heavily modified Linux kernel.

Is this an official?

Android already uses linux, linux is just a karnel!!!!

Technically android phones still have Linux, it's called Android.

contemplating the prospect of being the fortieth commenter to say "Android is technically Linux"... hmm...

[@trajectoryunown]

Ubuntu Touch is the most promising mobile OS I've ever seen. It's a shame that it was dropped by Canonical. That dock looks incredibly useful.
