Guess what? If your phone runs mainline #Linux, you can just play #Minecraft Java Edition on it. This is a Oneplus 8T running #PostmarketOS and Minecraft runs at a stable 25 FPS with 16 chunks render distance.
Some folks in the sm8250-mainline matrix channel and I have been working on getting this phone mainlined and so far we have a lot working. These changes are not merged into PostmarketOS yet but that is something I intend to do soon.
This video was also shot on PostmarketOS so this is a end-to-end Linux video production.

Как я починил энергосбережение OnePlus 3T на mainline ядре
Первая часть закончилась тем, что телефон заработал, и какое-то время этим всё и ограничивалось. postmarketOS на mainline-ядре, сверху Docker, Tailscale и один небольшой сервис, которому от меня ничего не требовалось. Я убрал телефон на полку и перестал о нём думать — ровно этого я от него и хотел. Сервис работал. Заодно выяснилось, что процессор всё это время держался на 70 °C. Не под нагрузкой, а в покое, днём и ночью, на устройстве без вентилятора и без радиатора, где тепло уходит только через собственный алюминиевый корпус. Вопрос, который стоило задать сразу: чем он занят, что даёт такую температуру. Дальше — ответ на него.

Google Play System Update (July 2026) rolls out for Samsung devices
Google Play System Update was a feature that was introduced for devices that ship with Android 10 or newer. It’s mandatory for device manufacturers that plan to release their devices with Android 10 to support Google Play System Updates. As a result, non-Google devices, such as Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets released with Android 10 (One UI 2.1), can receive such updates, too.
These updates don’t require security updates from the manufacturer to work, as Project Mainline modules work independently to give you better experience with Android phones and tablets.
On July 29th, a new Google Play System Update has been pushed to Samsung devices. This update upgrades your Project Mainline modules to the July 1st, 2026 version. This update weighs around 14 MB.
To be able to get this version, follow these steps:
- Go to your device’s settings
- Open the security settings
- Find “Google Play System Update” and tap on it
- If everything goes OK, you should see the below update dialog:
Click on Download and Install, wait for it to download, then reboot your device by clicking on the blue Restart button. The next time your device boots up, the revised update gets installed, so it’s going to take about 3 minutes maximum to install all the updates.
There is no progress bar, so don’t panic if it looks stuck. Your device will eventually boot up. Now, open your settings app and check your Google Play System Update. If everything is well, you should see July 1st, 2026 below the appropriate button.
In case your device didn’t receive the update, wait for a few days, and it will be available shortly.
Stay tuned for the August patch of 2026!

I love these kernel hacks!
> #Mackerel-08 now boots the #mainline #Linux #kernel! That's v7.1-rc6 at the time of writing. An 8 MHz-rated #Motorola 68008 (here running at 14 MHz) and 3.5 MB of RAM are enough to boot the latest kernel into userspace and provide a minimal BusyBox shell. […] This 40+ year-old cost-reduced CPU was not a powerhouse even in its day (the 68010 came out the same year), yet it boots the same kernel as my new Ryzen desktop.

sooo i tried using the new b4 review TUI for my last U-Boot PR and it was a bit of a disaster. I understand the process being a bit clunky to begin with but the whole process of actually setting up a branch was really involved. It failed to update a bunch of series on pathwork, and the b4 ty emails it generated had completely wrong commit SHAs
I get that the intention is primarily patch review but even for that it feels less like a tool i can utilise to automate the process and more like an imposed workflow that offers little flexibility
the thing that really pissed me off in the end though was realising that b4 review was VIBE CODED, kinda explains everything... This tool had so much potential but i struggle to see now how it will deliver when AI is involved in building it

I'm a bit desperate T_T
I'm working on getting #mainline #Linux to work on my Galaxy A71 ( #A715F ) and currently stuck getting the I2C to work where my touchscreen is connected to. The driver's using #qcom #gpi dma to communicate but I'm getting timeouts.
Does anyone (that reaches this) knows what the issue might be or how to best investigate what the cause is?

I am thrilled to be back at FOSDEM. It is a fantastic opportunity to meet with the open source community and connect with fellow developers at such a great conference!
Please join me this Saturday in the FOSS on Mobile devroom. I will be presenting the technical evolution of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, demonstrating how we achieved full mainline support—from power management to the Adreno GPU—running on actual product hardware.
I look forward to seeing you there.

Finally managed to get proper serial access to u-boot on my Samsung A5 (a5y17lte) using https://github.com/dsankouski/u-boot/tree/a5y17lte/board/samsung/axy17lte
I did have to break open my last a5y17lte and add lines to the internal serial port to check as it was very hard to get it working blind.
I've actually not done anything particularly special just reused other people's work but getting my head around it was a challenge. I'll publish an image file for others if they wanted to try it out (I appreciate the a5y17lte hacking club membership currently stands at 1).
