in an attempt to achieve the highest app compatibility known to man, i ended up writing a daemon that allows to install, configure and run #UbuntuTouch applications on our beloved #flx1 and it actually turned out pretty nice.

this is yet another service/client setup where now the store server is refactored to work alongside android-store (used to install android apps) to lower memory usage and the client is a #GNOME software plugin

as some might recall, we were working on a feature to allow multi booting different systems easily and without any hassle ( partitioning etc).

around that time we started to get in contact with known porters of different systems such as #UbuntuTouch and #sailfishos

after much effort and work, i can confidently say that the #flx1 will be added to the #UBports installer and OTA server soon allowing allow bare metal and multi boot installs!

after many days of work, here is another functional demo of #GNOME shell running on the secondary display connected to the #flx1. it took many hours to build the app and make everything act nice and not crash and integrate cleanly. still a long way to go but i think it is a good time to showcase the progress in the past 7 days.

i hope to get this ready and done by 13.0.9 which is the next release but obviously no promises.

@pocketvj I just found out mautrix-signal cannot register as the primary device. It uses device linking. So it still needs a second phone that runs Android or iOS.

That doesn't just not solve the issue, it also weakens security compared to other solutions.

So the gold standard remains just running the Signal Android client using #waydroid, which I have been doing on my #Furilabs #FLX1 for several months now.

FOSS mobile OS FuriOS has been updated to version 13.0.8 The update includes battery management improvements, modem improvements, MMS improvements, and more. I was able to upgrade my FLX1 from 13.0.7 to 13.0.8 simply with a couple rounds of "sudo apt update" and then "sudo apt upgrade". I had no issues with my upgrade.

The main website for FuriLabs is here:

A full changelog for the update can be found here:

The store page for the FLX1 is here:

The company has a Github page where their code can be found:

another update on this the battery has now dropped by 30% in 85 hours.

at this rate it the estimated 100 to 0 is roughly around 12.5 days. of course there is still room for optimizations so we can easily get it to 14 days of idle time, but i think this will do for this month.

battery drain draft for the FLX1 over 85 hours dropping only 30% without system suspend and only relying on our power saving methods, for an idle time of about 12.5 days

so yes the rumors are correct (this was leaked on reddit a few days ago, oh well)

the #FLX1 will be getting support for hooking up to external displays. the difference here compared to other approaches is that it will be running full #GNOME shell instead of #Phosh desktop mode (with some integration). as much as we love Phosh, GNOME shell simply provides a superior experience on a large display (and our community members voted for this too)
