No, what you need is open source, not open core.
-
When you finish your top to bottom FLOSS phone OS, let me know.

I need emacs for Android.
-
@speeddefrost Maybe I should have waited for the spark tablet to be released.
-
Imagine how bad gimp would run on android...
-
@techspotting I think it’d have to be a tablet app, wouldn’t be much fun on a phone…
-
I wish.
-
@vanden there is an orgmode for android
-
@vanden I’m told that emacs is almost an OS. Add a few drivers any you’re set.

Even if the hardware/software was available and open source, getting actual service is another story.

No, it quite surely *IS* an operating system. All it lacks is a driver stack.

I tried it once or twice before; frusteration. Recent release claimed to be better and documented. Yet to try. Have you used with happiness?
-
Yes. Shame about the editor, though.
-
I bought my 1st phone about 5 months back. Really mad at me I didn't check & discover no CyanogenMod support for model *before* purchase.
-
The reality is simple: as long as the mobile market is locked up by patents & corporations, don't ever expect to find an open source phone.
-
@vanden which one? I ran into the same issue with my Samsung Epic.
-
Will that be finished before or after the Hurd? ;-)
-
The Arabic regional spin of Samsung Galaxy Pro. I am not sure if it is geography or bilingual kybrd, but much in market not compatible, too.
-
@vanden whoa, I always assumed you were from USA. Sucks about incompatibilities
-
no I have not. I just use irssi connectbot on my phone to interact with my server.

I am Canadian; most of my time in the 'verse lived in Montreal. Moved to Cairo in Aug. Did you every manage anything but stock on the epic?

@vanden I'm running Syndicate Rom on it right now. Much better than stock imho.
