minus-squareTheMightyCat@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·23 days agohttps://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Fairphone_5_(fairphone-fp5) Audio Status : Broken No driver for the audio codec yet. No internal speaker or microphone is currently working. You can get all sounds via Bluetooth or USB peripherals. That’s a shame :(

minus-squareTundra@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·23 days agoyeah just postmarketOS. Someones working on porting SailfishOS: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/sailfish-os-for-fairphones-devices/21516/76 The Fairphone 4 is fully supported by Ubuntu touch though (and Fairphone5 is in the works) : https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/fp4/
minus-squareTheMightyCat@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-223 days agoI would assume so, Its probably only broken when using a linux distro like postmarket and not the stock android it comes with. I hoped this was a linux phone where all the features just worked but sadly not.
minus-squareSuccessful_Try543@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-223 days agoAudio works fine with /e/OS, probably also with their stock Android.
minus-squareTheMightyCat@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·23 days agoe/OS is also android based, the allure for me of something like postmarket that its just normal linux but in your pocket.
minus-squareSuccessful_Try543@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-223 days agoI know, I just wanted to confirm that (Bluetooth) audio works fine using Android and it’s just the Linux driver that lacks functionality.
