Phone bring-up in about five hours with the help of AI

Kinda crazy what you can achieve with LLMs nowadays. I used Claude Opus 5.5 on the $20/month Pro subscription for this. I tried my best to avoid an ugly patch series on top of mainline Linux and keep the pmaports clean. They won’t let me make a PR anyway, but hey, lmfao it’s working, unlike what the wiki says. WiFi Bluetooth, Audio etc will prolly work in a day or two too
One session:

Edit: Got WiFi working in 30 after starting a new session

Edit: 15 minutes later Bluetooth now

Now:
Working on the rest and cleaning up stuff

One session:

Edit:

Most of the stuff seems to work like vibration, torch w brightness, ir blaster, usb otg

gonna work on audio now since that’s still an issue

Edit: Audio works

Nura performance vs Android

Hello, my bf has a supported device, the xiaomi pad 6. Rn he uses android 14, lineage os on it and he wants to switch. How is the performance on Nura compared to android? Is it better or worse? And battery life too. Linux is normally lighter right?

Linux on moto g31 ?

I have an old moto g31 (6/128 variant) with some damaged screen (but fully usable), I bought a new phone and its lying there unused. I want to install a lightweight linux on it so that I can connect a usb-c hub like portronics mport 52 and connect external hard drive via usb to use it as a lightweight NAS for personal storage and some docker containers like home assistant, immich etc. Any suggestion and guidance is appreciated.
