Have you heard of pinephone? It’s a Linux based phone, would this work with project nomad? I don’t have a android so would need to get a new phone anyway. Not sure which route to go.
Yah I’ll need to do some more research but figured TFM might already have some insight. Seems like it should work but I know nothing about Linux. Phone is only 200 bucks so seems like a good plan instead of trying a patchwork android solution.
Hey Bud, did a little digging. The pinephone was recently discontinued due to lack of popularity. Turns out even the pro model isn't ideal for Nomad. You need a min of 8GB of ram but the more the better. If you want to run this on a phone you'll need a 1k price tier phone like librem 5 phone or OnePlus 13. The cheapest solution is to get a small PC for 250 and run linux off it. Draw back to that is you need wall power to run. You also need 500GB or hard drive space.
@Chimi_Chuang_Tzu Damn, I'd love to hear a follow-up on this if you go that route. I HAVE to do SOMETHING. It's a lot of time and effort and I need to have my shit figured out before I take action in this case. In the meantime, I only have a half-assed, poorly-researched temporary plan.
