Are there still OpenStick compatible / rootable MSM8916 LTE modems out there? I've heard multiple reports of people bricking theirs, and it seems like you need to watch out for the right PCB version: https://wvthoog.nl/openstick/

Also did anybody look at the fancier ones with OLED, like https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009218212541.html

I'm currently working on a project with the `FY_UZ801_V3.2` #MIFI Stick based on the #Snapdragon 410 (#MSM8916) and am now stuck with #modem problems

The board came with android preinstalled.
I then flashed #OpenWrt on it and configured the modem using the 5 modem partitions I dumped earlier with #EDL

That worked well, but then I recognized that the modem is not able to alter the modemst1 and modemst2 partitions after flashing WRT

Has anybody an idea how to fix this?
Maybe @revskills or @cas?

Okay, it's actually compiling #Mesa for real now... you can do it little guy! 📣 🐧

And yes, this is still all just to compile #Mesa so I can debug it in #GDB and figure out why #Firefox' #WebRender causes those funky artifacts on #Freedreno (#Adreno 306, #MSM8916)

I have no idea what I am doing, really. If anyone has some secret #GPU knowledge, get in touch! 📐

Maybe @mozilla or some of the great @thunderbird people? 🙏 Can't hurt to ask, right?

Oh hang on, let me quickly upgrade my @postmarketOS to the `edge` channel while I commute to work... 😎 ☕

@Baonks81 As you can probably see, the device is plugged in but the battery icon is not reflecting that. This is a common issue with #msm8916 (Snapdragon 410) devices.

@postmarketOS finally, internal ROM + SDCard mixed. now i have a large, around 45GB disk space with custom partition to install everything needed plus 4GB swap file.

Was soll ich mit einem alten Smartphone machen, auf dem die neueren #Android-Versionen nicht mehr funktionieren, was aber sonst keine Schäden hat? Was ist bei der #CO2-Bilanz besser?

Das Smartphone hat einen Snapdragon410-Prozessor bzw. ist ein #MSM8916 -System-on-Chip (SoC).

a) wegwerfen / recyceln lassen?
b) sehr viel Zeit/Arbeit investieren, um #PostmarketOS darauf irgendwie zum Laufen zu bringen?
