| Wikiwide | Good question, rinigus: > so, can you port SFOS to your pinephone modem? < Why do we need a second, external OS, if modem already has an OS of its own? I personally am afraid that getting the modem-Android to output anything like GUI to an external display could be a pain - depending on how that USB port connection works, and what other hardware I/O exist for the modem. | 00:28 |

| Wikiwide | Quectel EG25-G offers USB 2 high-speed interface. Main UART and debug UART. SDIO x 2 (for WiFi, and for memory card). PCM for digital audio. But I do not see anything about video input/output. So, not that self-sufficient? Needs an external GPU? | 00:55 |
| Wikiwide | That's where it gets tricky. If it supports video input/output, then it also imposes limitations - on number/size of displays, on number/resolution of cameras. But that's typical for a GPU, anyway... What is Yocto Linux OS? https://imei.quectel.com/product/sc20.htm | 01:03 |
| Wikiwide | See > Having the power of running customer/user-specific programs inside the Linux in the modem is very powerful, and can for example eliminate the use of a dedicated external processor in many M2M/IoT applications. < https://projects.osmocom.org/projects/quectel-modems/wiki | 03:17 |

| Flohack | BTW Guys re Pinephone Modem were you aware of this: https://blog.mobian-project.org/posts/2022/02/11/pinephone-malware-analysis/ | 09:46 |
| Flohack | Its an interesting read. From Ubuntu Touch standpoint I must say we are glad that we put a lot of restrictions in place that try to prevent or slow down such attacks. After reading this I am wondering if we can find a way to block partition writes even as root | 09:47 |
