Anyone tried /e/ ? - G3 General

Hello all,
Since LineageOS is not available anymore for our G3 devices (thanks @HardStyl3r for your work, that said), I'm looking for alternatives, with some features : "official" (from a sufficiently stable entity) and regular builds, secure, as FOSS as possible. I have very little app-compatiblility constraints, because all I use comes from the F-Droid repo (no Google-dependant apps, then). So /e/, for me, is a bit overkill (I don't need microG, for example), but I does the job.
Last week, I dirty-flashed (by mistake, I forgot to wipe the partitions before flashing) e-1.7-r-20230111250687-dev-d855.zip above LineageOS, and the device just works. I replaced the default launcher (BlissLauncher) with OpenLauncher, which has nearly the same behavior than Trebuchet, I disabled the built-in apps that can be disabled (that is a known problem : some of them can't be disabled. I think the devs are working on it), and... voilà.
For those who don't know /e/, here is their website : https://e.foundation/
Anyone else uses /e/ here ? What do you think about it ?

MOD EDIT: ENGLISH TRANSLATION ADDED | READ AND FOLLOW THE XDA FORUM RULES
Good morning,
Yes, I use /e/ I just installed it on a G3. Rather interesting to recycle a laptop from 2014-2015... Personally, I use a oneplus 2. Moreover, I have already installed this system for ordinary users. Not so lambda as that, because my friends and relatives quickly understood the interest of being able to no longer use a google account to install applications. Graphically, it's generally more sober, a bit like ubuntu mate for example, offers it. Everyone finds their phone more responsive than before.
------------------------------
Bonjour,
Oui, j'utilise /e/ je viens de l'installer sur un G3. Plutôt intéressant de recycler un portable de 2014-2015... À titre personnel, j'utilise un oneplus 2. Par ailleurs, j'ai déjà installé ce système pour des utilisateurs lambda. Pas si lambda que ça, car mes amis et proches ont vite pigé l'intérêt de pouvoir ne plus utiliser de compte google pour installer des apllications. Sur le plan graphique, c'est globalement plus sobre, un peu comme ubuntu mate par exemple, le propose. Tout le monde trouve son téléphone plus réactif qu'avant.

A way to play "La brute" with my trinity ?

[WWE] Hi,
May be you have already played to this little Flash game called 'La brute' (If not check this out here : http://shuryuken.labrute.fr), but i woul like to play with it on my Trinity.
Unfortunatly, when i try to, i got this error:
(Translation : Your Flashplayer is not up to date. install last version (link)
And of course when i click on the link, i don't find a soft for my PPC (maybe and i'm blind and i didn't find it)
do you know if there is a way to fix this with a software solution ( i have test with opera 9.5b and IE both with adobe flash player 7)
I hope someone will find a solution, this game is pretty addictive and it will be a pleasure to play it in nomade mode (and by the way to different IP can give me more apprentices with XP ^^)
thanks in advance (xpost)

[FR]Coucou,
bon vous connaissez surement ce petit jeu très prenant du moment (sinon allez ici:http://shuryuken.labrute.fr), mais j'aimerai y jouer depuis mon ppc.
Cependant lorsque j essai bah il me sort ce message :
Et biensur le lien indiqué dans le message pointe vers des softs pour PC only( a moins que je me fourvoie)
y'a t'il une feinte avec un logiciel que je ne connais pas ? (j ai le flash player 7 d'adobe, je vois pas de version supérieure)
j'éspère que quelqu'un aura la solution a ce problème car ce petit jeu est vraiment super sympa. (de plus 2 ip ça fait plus d'élèves a XP dans mon dojo)
(xposté)
Merci d'avance

Unfortunately there's not much to do.
Some flash sites require later version of flash, like 8 or 9.
Untill Adobe releases a newer version (this is a separate discussion on if and when) there's not much really that can be done!

Android and linux on pharos

Now android and linux work on pharos.
status:
linux an android boot from haret
touchscreen work very well
GPE work very good (GUI)
keypad work partial /i work on jog wheel
microsd work
bluetooth : Work
GSM Work very well
sound : still on developpement (we are working hard on it)
camera: not work
site project:http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/
files (for test)
for test only : http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/
you need to copy files on microsd card and run haret$$$.exe.
Several things don't work so far -- this is early development. But it's enough to play with.
Enjoy
No comments ???!!
Hi to you, I use a translator to tell you, your post interests me but I need more information.
what informations ??
i speak French/English.
but in this forum,we need to speak English (only to respect others members)
quels informations??
c'est la première version beta/de test (elle contient plusieurs problèmes)
avez-vous réussie a lancer linux et l'interface ?
hey zenned,
i tested linux a bit. touchscreen works very well!!
but a lot of settings cant be set. cont config wlan for instance, nor buttons and keys. no gsm module etc etc...
and its basically a tweaked version of linwizzard (this time without a crippled kernel i guess) so BIG improvement!! kudos to you!!
but a lot more work is needed.. (cant play tetris now LOOoooOOL)
It asks for password??
hi,
you just need to choose root account from the list.
without password
and press the arro button on the right
Salut si tu est français parle en français sa sera plus pratique pour moi ! ton fichier c'est pour utiliser tt le téléphone sur linux ou qu'une partie ?
juste pour info : je ne suis pas français.
le faite de faire tourner l'appareil sous linux nécessite beaucoup de travaille.
je me concentre maintenant a faire fonctionner tout le matériel de l'appareille.
a savoir : le module GSM, le sons , le module gps, le bluetooth ..
puis je pense qu'il sera avidement possible de faire tourner android sur l'appareille.
traduction:
the fact it runs on the Linux machine requires a lot of work.
I focus now to operate all the equipment of the unit.
list : the GSM module, the sounds, the GPS module, the bluetooth ..
then I think it will be avidly possible to run android on it.
ok je voudrais bien t'aider mais moi il faut que je conserve mon OS , si c'est un programme / interface qui ce lance par un .exe ou autre pas de problèmes
a cette étape, le mieux c'est de maitriser le systeme linux:
maitiser le noyeau : compilation et programtion des modules
savoir configurer le systeme linux
avoir une bonne connaissance dans l'architecture arm (omap850)
savoir travailler en groupe.
tout ceci pour l'évolution du projet .
de même pour lancer linux j'utilise maintenant haret comme bootloader.
a-tu testé la version disponible.
At this stage, we need linux developpers :
kernel compilation and modules programming
configure the linux system
have a good knowledge in the arm architecture (omap850)
able to work in groups.
all this is for the project.
I now use Haret as bootloader.
had you tested the version available.
autre chose : pour le moment l'idée et de lancer linux sans toucher la version window existante.
Je maitrise un peu linux ( ubuntu ) mais sans plus.
Quel intérêt est de le passez sous linux ? ( apars les commandes etc...)
quel intérêt ??!!!
je ne veut pas aborder ce sujet (très long et très compliqué)
mois j'utilise linux depuis plus de 7 ans et je suis très satisfait.
j'utilise aussi windows mais linux est mon favori.
tu peut te renseigner sur android et tu va savoir l'intérêt de l'avoir.
ouai je vois mais sur un pharos est ce que c'est utile ?
oui je vois!
ça peut être le défi, le besoin de savoir faire, ou tout simple vouloir perdre le temps en quelque chose d'exitant .
et dire à la fin <je suis trop fort !! >
mais pour moi,j'en ai plusieurs raison de vouloir le faire.
je suis étudiant en cycle ingénieur en informatique mais ceci ne m'oblige pas à le faire.

I copied the files to the card wors nice.
But I unable to receive or make any calls...infact on the other callers side it shows my call as ringing...but I cant pick nor answer or make a new call
<GSM not tested>
i'am working now on sound problem : we cannot use gsm before having sound
thank you for testing .

then gsm is not working and still have to be configurated.
if any one need the source : tell me.
we can start a project on sourceforge or others website.
yes I shall wait for the updated version...also I think the keys as not mapped cause any of my key of pharos does not function...
would not mind testin it again after u get it rectified

Make App RadioFM

Hello,
I am looking for someone who knows how to program applications for Android.
I currently use the ROM OpenFire but I wonder if it was possible to have an application using the RadioFM. I looked around and sources of ROM drivers we have access to the FM chip. Not knowing whether I wanted to set someone felt able to do that.
I think I am not alone in needing
Regards, thanks in advance

English forum, read the rules and post in english. Luckily I got an A in French
CyanogenMod is getting FMRadio very soon, so my CM6 ROM will possibly have it and adeadrat can add the app to his AOSP source if he wants.
Hope this helps,
Jacob
Ok crowns me. Is it possible to have the. apk

It's not that simple. It won't work on our hardware yet because it only contains code for the N1 (as far as I know). It needs a good bit of work but I'm sure we'll eventually get FM on AOSP builds for Wildfire
Ok I thought it was enough to replaced the file "driver" and recompiling the project

[Q] APN configuration on Dynamics 2.0

Hi,
I'm having trouble to configure my APN settings on last Dynamics (2.0) Rom.
The question have already been asked for this, or others roms, but the answers that satified the users in all the thread i found didn't work for me. So here is my case :
My phone
Samsung Omnia 7
Windows 7.8 (7.10.8862.144)
Rom : Dynamics v2.0,
Here are all the solution i tried (for what i remember), I think the issue might come from the KK2 update from samsung, but i don't really know what it does :
Nokia, HTC, Samsung, LG, fujistu "network pofiles" or "APN settings" app :.
(didn't work, couldn't launch, or had the wrong provisioning files (for samsung network profile, couldn't edit them in anyway, for all i know)
ProvXML solution :
via diagnosis, homebrew provxml app, cabsender. Any of them could see or the .xml files. I found that its probably the KK2 update that disabled the use of ProvXml files on samsung devices
WP7 root tools :
Tried by myself and by looking for hints on forums to manualy edit the existings APN settings with mine. Obviously some of them were hide.
Samsung Tools solution :
Use diagnosis to delete the existing APN parameters and launch Samsung Tools run ADC option to automatically configure Data and MMS settings on reboot. This solution actualy bricked or relocked my phone (Half of my homebrew apps don't launch anymore : xap deployer, root manager, WP7 root tools, but WPH Tweaks for exemple still works)
Every time i reseted my phone to be sure i didn't had a alterated OS, registry etc, but i'm starting to getting sick of reseting my phone again and again because it fails again and again. Maybe we could turn this thread into a guide so set APN settings (i'm obviously not the only one to ask this question) and put in order, all the solutions to try, until it works.
But i'll be needing you for this, if i forgot some solution, i will edit my post, and add the links if a thread exists explaining the solution.
Hi,
Why KK2?
Try with other rom.

What do you mean by "why KK2" ? it's in the update. Samsung decided it, not me ? I'm not sure what you wan't to know.
I picked the Dynamics 2.0 because it's (for what i know) one of the latest and cleanest Rom, basicly its full unlocked, some root apps (xap deploy, WP7 root toold, etc) installed and that's prelly much it.
And i think the difficulty to change APN settings (its already difficult with WP7 alone, but now its worse) comes from this specific KK2 update, not from the Rom.
So the 7.10.8107.79 OS update would bring the firmware update (KK2) with it to any Rom.
My question is : Where the problem comes from ?
In a post from 1800pocketpc we have a first answer : @wphonehacker reach out to us and informed us that Samsung didn’t block the WindowBreak hack specifically, but they blocked provxml, which was being used way before WB existed.
But is it really from this KK2 update or it is from the ROM ? I the first case i could use any Rom, but be carefull not to update the phone. But even if it changed the way of editing APN (because they really can't just delete this possibility), isn't there any other way to edit APN than to use provxml ? If it comes from the ROM I will change it, but for wich one ? Which rom is fully unlocked, up-to-date and clean (no dark theme or what so ever)
Its not like if we were trying to modify any weird parameters, some app on the marketplace does it.
I may have found a solution with this 1800pocketpc post though (IF the problem comes from the KK2 firmware update). It would be to flash again the Phone with an un-updated Dynamics (or other) Rom, and update the OS without updating the firmware :
( 1800pocketpc.com/samsung-omnia-7-kk2-update-fixes-windowbreak-hack )
And weird thing, i remember when the Rom was up to date, the pre-existing version of samung's "Network Profile" app was working : i could change APN settings but with US provisioners, i'm from france and couldn't use any of them.
When i updated Network Pofile, THEN the app told me "You're using the wrong device or your decide isn't up to date, try to update it with zune" (something like this).
SO there is still a way to change APN, but i can't find a way to change provisionners list, OR to do it manualy (type yourself all parameters).

Oui je suis français, et j'ai vu que tu devais surement l'être aussi (tu es pas mal présent sur generation mobile par exemple, si j'ai bien compris). Mais je me suis dit que ces posts pourraients servir à d'autres, donc continuer à l'usage : en anglais ^^.
Sinon je voulais savoir si le projet "Imagine" était actif ?
A force de reformater mon telephone et de remettre des applications, seulement les utiles etc, je suis en train d'essayer d'imaginer une rom en quelque sorte "parfaite".
Bon je sais pas trop comment fonctionne le projet, je suppose que vous ne pouvez pas nonplus cuisiner une ROM pour chaque membre du forum, au pire des cas, j'essaierai de faire ma ROM avec ton Tuto.
Mais si vous êtes interessés, ça pourrait aller un peu plus vite et surement être mieux fait qu'un "premier essai"

Yes the project available on genmob and also xda.

Hi ! Rom finaly installed, APN configured with the Nokia Network Setup App (smartly hidden in parameters)
I miss something from the dynamics 2.0 though : the Clock Hub tile ( mediafire.com/download/kt8n79jq1bbkvia/Clock_Hub_v1.0.0.0.xap )
When installed and pinned it says "Clock Hub native part isn't running. Wait a little."
Is there a reason to this ?
Also i miss the default battery appearance, any way to get the old one ?
All the rest is really good !

Hi,
Already thank you for your comments
On clock hub, I do not know because my omnia 7 does not work for now, but I think clock hub is the property of the xda team, and I think he does not want it to be integrated into other rom that the their. To be confirmed...
For battery appearance, yes I can make you a cab, but you do not like the percentage?
I'll do that as soon as possible
OK great thanks !
Well actualy its not the percentage i'm not liking, but i prefer the régular display (as percentage goes to 5 - 10 - 20 - 30, etc its not really more pecise)
and percentage was displayed on the Clock Hub (with all numbers : 53,54,55,56, etc). But i understand that they may have protected it ! I'll find something else maybe .
Thank you for all anyway.

Gathering information about Idol 3 4.7

Hello there ,
I own Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 4.7 and I am still so far on Android 5.0.2 ( the update without fastboot commands ), my question is : Should I root the phone and how? I read on other topic that in incoming MM update the fastboot commands are completely removed. The Stock Android 5.0.2 is pretty bad ( Sound is skipping, low battery, slow, laggy ). I had it already rooted once (also resized data partition), but that was before the 5.0.x removal fastboot commands and I could return to the stock pretty easily (with Alcatel Mobile Upgrade Q or smth like that). I want to know if there is a still way how to completely go back to the stock status from MM Custom ROM for assistence.
I have still problems with some pixels on display so I will have to send it in 2-5 month to assistence so I need to know if there is a way how to get the stock status again.
Also is there a kernel source? I would like to play with it
Thank you.
In English:
The request on facebook at Alcatel is: Will the idol 3.4,7 code 6039y-2BALWE7 be updated towards android 6.0? I ask the question because that made more than 50 days that the update towards android 6.0 was deployed in France. that starts to make long since the deployment in North America who started in June.
Their answer in MP facebook is:
Hello Valérian, As I have told you for 50 days, I do not have unfortunately an answer to your question. I cannot either help you because it is not me which manages the updates and when I get information near my superiors, I do not have more information to give you…
In French:
La demande sur facebook à Alcatel est:
Est-ce que l'idol 3 4,7 code 6039y-2BALWE7 sera mis à jour vers android 6.0? Je pose la question car ça fait plus de 50 jours que la mise à jour vers android 6.0 a été déployé en France. ça commence à faire long depuis le déploiement en Amérique du Nord qui a commencé en juin.
Leur réponse en MP facebook est:
Bonjour Valérian, Comme je vous le dis depuis 50 jours, je n'ai malheureusement pas de réponse à votre question. Je ne peux pas non plus vous aider car ce n'est pas moi qui gère les mises à jours et lorsque je me renseigne auprès de mes supérieurs, je n'ai pas plus d'informations à vous donner...
I called Alcatel by telephone and the operator told me that it is google which decides which telephone passes under the next version of android. I think that Alcatel makes fun of the customers. I think that it is Alcatel which does not want to update the idol 3.4,7 inches for the moment.
