Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
Please do some research if you have any concerns.
YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point
the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
- An android phone
- A snapdragon SOC with a Adreno 6xx-7xx gpu (optional if you do not want hardware acceleration, but that's not fun, is it?
- Experience with building software from source
- Root and Termux + Termux:X11 installed
- A custom ROM that can be built from source (kernel building is required for sysvipc support (needed for some games and Steam) and joystick passthrough, ask your ROM maintainer for instructions to build kernel)
- Some patience and googling skills
- Debian Sid arm64 (or whatever is your phone architecture) rootfs, can be built with debootstrap
- A physical mouse/keyboard and/or a gamepad
Here are some usecases:
- Hooking up your phone to a monitor and getting a full linux experience
- Making your own Steam Deck at a quarter of the size
- Running x86/64 specific software
- Hosting x86/64 only game servers
- Just tinkering with your phone :p
