i only support software that is open source. if its proprietary it might as well be as bad as fucking apple.
now if these phones are bootloader unlocked and can run postmarketos or android…
it is open source https://www.openharmony.cn/
last i heard about huawei they were bootloader locked though
and isnt it mostly closed with some open parts?
My understanding is that it’s mostly open.
even if it is, if they have locked bootloaders, it really defeats the purpose. devices we buy are ours, not the manufacturer’s
i havent been able to find info on whether or not they are locked in 2024 from a quick search, but last i heard they were pretty adamant about locking them down tight which is not something i can cheer on.
I don’t really follow your logic, since the open source OS itself is not tied to the bootloader. This is code that could be run on phones with open bootloaders. Everybody benefits from Huwawei developing an open source operating system as far as I can tell. So, not sure what you can’t get behind here.
It’s just Android with a skin no?
no
Thanks, we definitely did not need any further information or sources from your reply. /s
I keep forgetting that using google is challenging for people https://www.openharmony.cn/mainPlay/
I thought everyone decided “jfgi” in online discourse was a toxic years ago. It’s the same attitude as :
chemtrails make you sick!
How so?
go do your own research
If you’re going report on something, provide a little more information than just “no”. It’s more helpful, better for the community, and in 5 years time when the facts are different, there’ll still be a reference of what was factual in the past.
