What could go wrong with devices that have non-replaceable batteries? A #Replicant developer got arrested when things went very sideways: https://u.fsf.org/30z Learn more about how you can contribute to this free Android distribution: https://u.fsf.org/2z7

Demonstrably not true for my S7 portable #surveillance and #tracking device. You can install #LineageOS if your phone supports it. Better yet: S3 with #Replicant.

I'm sick of all this discrimination against people without a #smartphone. Having retired my #Replicant Galaxy S II, I now have a Nokia 101 as my primary cellphone. And this is exactly how I feel: https://www.buzzfeed.com/briannag4/the-woes-of-people-without-smartphones-ctce

The S2 is one tough motherfucker. And together with #Replicant, I think it's similar to what Singer does with Porsche. !surveillance devices

@mistahdarcy you could try asking on the #Replicant forum

@therealpennyfortheguy @nikola ok, but humour me. If I came to your house with a #Replicant phone, would you make me leave it in the car?
-
@therealpennyfortheguy @nikola would the same apply to someone with a 100% free code phone like a #Replicant or a #Purism #Librem 5?

The only major fail is recommending #iThings over #Android. Out of the frying pan, into the blast furnace. What about #Replicant folks?

How convenient that there's a new #Replicant release (announced yesterday) to fix the very issue I just started having about an hour ago:

Do you want to do yourself something good over the festive season? Then #FreeYourAndroid phone and remove as much non-free software as possible! We show you how: https://fsfe.org/campaigns/android/android.en.html … #Google #PlayStore #Android #FDroid #Replicant @LineageAndroid !FreeSoftware http://l.fsfe.org/BoZeu1 #fsfe #FreeSoftware

Funny to see #Technoethical S2 with #Replicant sold for €258. It never occurred to me what I did on my own could be turned into a business.

Congrats to the #Replicant Free Software #Android team on the 6.0 update! This release more than doubles the number of supported devices and contains a few important fixes and improvements. https://u.fsf.org/2bh

Upgraded from #Replicant 4.2 to !Replicant 6.0. Happy!
-
Installed #Replicant 6 on my S3!
I still have a lot of setup to do and apps to install, so I don't have much to say yet. Certain things are considerably slower (e.g. opening and navigating Settings has multi-second delays between menu options), but not all apps are like that.
Video _tries_ to work (it actually renders, though with a considerable delay), but it can't stop recording, crashes, and corrupts the video. I'll try other camera software when I can. That'd be an important one for me to get working, if I can---videos of the kids again would be great.
Anyway, I'll probably report my findings over on the Replicant forums over the next few days. Great work, Wolfgang Wiedmeyer!

:O it looks like there was a #Replicant 6 tag on the 6th:
https://git.replicant.us/replicant/manifest/tags
I'll have to figure out what the status is tomorrow and determine if I should give this a shot yet or not. I don't really have much spare time at the moment.
If anyone else tries, please lmk!

@jeffcliff @maiyannah I knew Ubuntu and Android were problems before I knew about #Trisquel and #Replicant
-
Replicant 6.0 is moving forward and quite some work has been done over the last several months..check out their update! https://u.fsf.org/23l #Replicant

Looks like #Replicant is seeing some more development: http://redmine.replicant.us/boards/21/topics/12057?r=13991#message-13991
But it's a lot of work for one person. It's a shame that there are so few Android devs that care about a free Android OS and are willing to put some time into it. That's why I'd like to see #LineageOS adopt some of the principals, at least as a base upon which they build non-free images.
