| nh1402 | saidinesh5: not much really, haven't gotten back to it yet | 13:30 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: if you were all set and ready then I could have whipped up the app for you to test. | 13:30 |
| saidinesh5 | ah | 13:33 |
| saidinesh5 | will have to but getting tiired of losing data so many times | 13:33 |
| saidinesh5 | will probably do it after i switch phones | 13:33 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: same, atm I'm stuck on Android Nougat, can't seem to get the CM rom or the right version of recovery with the right version of multirom to install Sailfish back on to it. | 13:38 |
| saidinesh5 | Ah | 13:38 |
| saidinesh5 | with multirom i think sailfish can only be installed as primary rom | 13:38 |
| saidinesh5 | sailfish has hardcoded system and data partitions... | 13:39 |
| nh1402 | with CM ceasing to exist, and all the links to the CM rom for Sailfish installation pointing to a URL that no longer exists, it's very difficult to get it. | 13:39 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: you mean secondary rom, it refuses to install Sailfish as primary | 13:39 |
| saidinesh5 | and sailfish uses a truck load of files from the system partition | 13:39 |
| saidinesh5 | Sailfish is primary | 13:39 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: what magical version of multirom are you using? | 13:40 |
| saidinesh5 | any version. i am not using multirom though | 13:40 |
| nh1402 | !seen miau | 13:42 |
| merbot | nh1402: miau was last seen in #sfdroid 4 weeks, 4 days, 3 hours, 44 minutes, and 31 seconds ago: <miau> saidinesh5: Do i need the binary blobs to compile cm? | 13:42 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: I'm looking at getting a new phone at some point this year. | 13:43 |
| saidinesh5 | hmm.. | 13:43 |
| saidinesh5 | which one? | 13:43 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: haven't decided yet, none have met my expectations, except the XZ Premium, although that's a tad expensive. | 13:47 |
| nh1402 | and it isn't out yet. | 13:50 |
| nh1402 | although it's getting more and more needed, my nexus 5 has gone really slow with Nougat, the lense cover is no longer a fixture, the battery doesn't last (never has done to be fair), the screen doesn't get bright enough outside (never has done to be fair) | 13:52 |
| saidinesh5 | go for el cheapo chinese! | 14:00 |
| saidinesh5 | some Huawei/Xiaomi device.. | 14:01 |
| saidinesh5 | i liked Yota phone.. would consider buying that if they come up with an updated version for my next phone | 14:01 |
| *** Mister_Magister <Mister_Magister!~foidbgen@user-94-254-144-99.play-internet.pl> has joined #sfdroid | 14:01 | |
| saidinesh5 | right now my phone's USB port is giving up.. so bought in one of those magnetic usb connectors | 14:02 |
| saidinesh5 | so far, this phone did well for 3 years.. | 14:02 |
| saidinesh5 | yotaphone 2 is similar to Nexus 5 in terms of specs though.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONlogtkYe2Q | 14:03 |
| saidinesh5 | this is now available for around 110$ i think.. | 14:05 |
| saidinesh5 | still tempting.. | 14:05 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: my usb port is slowly on it's way out too, as is the sides of the phone, has had a good rollicking over the years. | 14:16 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: I got close to getting the Xiaomi Mi5s last year | 14:17 |
| saidinesh5 | Ahh.. I've heard good things about Mi5 | 14:35 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: the phone or the government organisation? | 14:36 |
| saidinesh5 | obviously phone lol | 14:36 |
| *** Mister_Magister <Mister_Magister!~foidbgen@user-94-254-144-99.play-internet.pl> has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) | 14:37 | |
| saidinesh5 | definitely not the movie | 14:37 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: I didn't even think of the movie, I meant the actual government organisation | 14:38 |
| saidinesh5 | i know | 14:38 |
| saidinesh5 | it doesnt exist where i live | 14:38 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: going back to the mi5 phone didn't it take something like 6 months to get the kernel source? | 14:44 |
| saidinesh5 | the kernel source for Mi5 iirc was released right away | 14:44 |
| saidinesh5 | for Mi3 they took long | 14:44 |
| saidinesh5 | like 7 months i think | 14:44 |
| saidinesh5 | they basically didnt release Mi3 source because they were using the same kernel for Mi4 and apparently they wanted to keep it a secret until then | 14:45 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: what about mi5s kernel source | 14:47 |
| saidinesh5 | its out already. iirc zhxv or someone is even doing a sailfish port for it | 14:48 |
| nh1402 | really, interesting | 14:49 |
| saidinesh5 | "Ahh... Xiaomi kept their engagement 5 months later. " . so basically about the time they launched the device here I think.. | 14:49 |
| saidinesh5 | out here when Mi5 was available, kernel sources were already out | 14:49 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: is this for the mi5 or 5s? | 14:51 |
| saidinesh5 | both are Gemini itself right? | 14:51 |
| saidinesh5 | Ah no.. | 14:52 |
| saidinesh5 | 5s is capricon apparently | 14:52 |
| saidinesh5 | https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/gemini-m-oss no capricon in there | 14:52 |
| saidinesh5 | since Mi6 is coming, i think 5s sources should be out anytime now | 14:53 |

| nh1402 | saidinesh5: so they do take their sweet time to release sources | 14:55 |
| saidinesh5 | yeah , for Mi3/4 they took like 7 months easily | 14:56 |
| saidinesh5 | OnePlus was nicer that way.. if not more expensive | 14:56 |

| nh1402 | saidinesh5: the other issue is that it they don't sell it directly in the UK | 15:01 |
| saidinesh5 | Ahh.. do their devices work with your 3G/4G bands? | 15:01 |
| *** TheKit <TheKit!~nekit@85-95-187-17.saransk.ru> has joined #sfdroid | 15:02 | |
| saidinesh5 | Also with these mass produced devices you'd like some kind of warranty if you're coughing up 300-400$ | 15:02 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: probably | 15:04 |

| nh1402 | saidinesh5: there is a certain band they don't tend to work with which is a bit annoying having done some research, but hopefully that was the old phones and have added support for that too. | 15:25 |
| saidinesh5 | Ahh dunno. that's the number one concern for me if / when buying chinese phones | 15:29 |
| nh1402 | saidinesh5: I'm not even on the network which affects that anymore so not really an issue for me, at least for this year | 15:30 |
| saidinesh5 | Ahh.. so warranty is the only thing that stands in your way? | 15:31 |
| saidinesh5 | i did like the service provided by banggood/aliexpress | 15:31 |
| saidinesh5 | i didnt get the device i ordered once, and they sent another one | 15:31 |
| saidinesh5 | i ve heard they even do replacements | 15:31 |

| saidinesh5 | not sure.. i may try a couple more things | 16:21 |
| saidinesh5 | but development slows down now though because need to back up everytime i try something like that | 16:22 |
