Have an old Android smartphone*? Come on by! We may be able to upcycle it with an Android/Linux alternative or even a full GNU/Linux OS.

Friday 28 June 2024, 18:00-21:00 CEST at Moos, Moosdorfstr. 7-9 (S Treptower Park).

Any recommendations for a Galaxy S22 Ultra?

@be4foss @kde

Would you be able to deal with a locked bootloader on Asus ROG Phone 5? I would be so happy to degoogle. Any of the Linux Mobile options would be even better. It's 500km for me though.

@Satiah @kde A quick look online turned up some results (see, e.g., https://www.xda-developers.com/asus-rog-phone-5-bootloader-unlock-tool-kernel-source/), but nothing I can help with.

That's a shame you are so far away. Maybe you'd be interested in organizing an installation event yourself 500kms from Berlin? 🙂
