Since Jan 11, 2022, I have worked on getting the Nexus 5 over on Mobian.
Here's a year of progress.


I will update my repo soon.

This is amazing, I will have to dig out my old Nexus 5 and give it a try someday. Nexus 5 was my favorite form factor of any touchscreen phone I've owned.

Yup, it'a somewhat stable as long as you don't do any intensive task.
Web browsing, SIM, BT, and Kernel Instability are my main concern.
Give it a try!

Awesome. In pmOS there are issues related to the GPU like not being able to turn the screen off, or X11 not working (only wayland), is there a status overview or list of nonworking features?

I apologize for the late response, Jerboa doesn't notify me.
I will adress Audio/HDMI/GPS on flto's kernel.

Wonderful. Heh, my reply's MUCH late but.. How's Phosh running without GPU accel? I'm charging my hammerhead again to try Mobian instead, hope its easy :)

Phosh runs quite well (Considering this is an old phone.)
If you like, follow the build instructions and give it a try. You might like it 😉.
