A short look at Plasma Mobile 6

- It's early days for Plasma Mobile 6, let's take a quick look!
Demoed on postmarketOS. The images flashed to the OnePlus 6 and PinePhone have been downloaded from postmarketos.org/download/ . Pick "edge" for your device, go Plasma Mobile, and if the image has been created on March 6th, 2024 or later, it should be Plasma 6 already.
Overall, while bugs definitely exist, it's definitely very promising - sorry I did not have time for a more detailed, better planned or edited look.

Devin seems to be the main person behind the development of Plasma Mobile, so considering he's only working part time on it, and there's only a handful of other contributors, it's still a impressive undertaking. I do wish it was less buggy though.
Some may even be fixed by now in 6.0.2. I'll try my best to post a follow-up soon.
This has strong "we already Android 4 at home" vibes.
droidian needs an implementation of plasma mobile 6 as well
That's going to be really hard, as Plasma Mobile dropped the code to work with halium/libhybris quite a while ago.
if the US didnt do stupid bootlocker stuff i would love to do this!
Thay keyboard already got me mad. 2024 and we still have a buggy keyboard for some reason. Starting to lose hope for Plasma Mobile :(
It's a pretty good keyboard IMHO; I am quite happy with maliit. This keyboard stuff is just hard, I recommend watching dcz's FOSDEM talk from thw 2024 FOSS on Mobile dev room. Also, please: Report all the bugs you see in the proper bug trackers (not RUclips comments) - unreported bugs are hard to fix 🙂
@@LINMOBnetThe problem is not input, it's the constant flickering shown in the video. I'll just stick to Phosh, it's way ahead of KDE Plasma Mobile.
@@LINMOBnetjust look at 2:40. It's terrible...
@@softwarelivre2389 That is pretty much a "low-performance device only" problem though.
@@LINMOBnet that couldn't be further from the truth. It has nothing to do with performance, it has to do with buggy and unnecessary resizes. That's a bug.
