Librem 5 — Promise Delivery Chart

@Caliga, This chart needs to be updated. I recommend making these changes:

Change:
Phosh, Phoc, Squeekboard, Kings Cross
To:
Phosh, Phoc, Chatty, Calls, libhandy, feedbackd, haegtesse, wys

Best to remove Kings Cross, since Zander Brown isn’t a Purism employee (although new software which was developed starting in April 2019) and Squeekboard, since it is based on Eekboard.

Change:

  • video out (DisplayPort)
  • video out (HDMI) | planned upgrade: mainline HDMI

To:

  • video out (DisplayPort) | Can use HDMI monitors with a USB-C to HDMI cable

Remove the “video out (HDMI)” because the industry has not adopted the HDMI alt-mode over USB-C standard and no cell phone on the market supports it.

Change:
(WiFi/BT on replacable M.2 card)
To:
(WiFi/BT on replaceable M.2 card)

Change:
battery user replacable
To:
battery is user replaceable | Easily replaceable without tools

Change:
Bluetooth 4
To:
Bluetooth | RS9116 supports Bluetooth 5.0, but only Bluetooth 4 verified so far

Change:
(baseband on replacable M.2 card)
To:
(cellular baseband on replaceable M.2 card)

Change:
(RGB status LED)
To:
(RGB status LED) | programable with PWM control per color

Change:
Compass (Magnetometer)
To:
Compass (Magnetometer)

Get rid of the italics and bold, because all compass sensors on phones are magnetometers.

Add:
Collaboration postmarketOS | info, article

Purism gave Birch and Dogwood to postmarketOS for porting work.

Change:
:white_check_mark: | Collaboration UBports | devices (a bit late)
To:
( :white_check_mark: ) :hourglass_flowing_sand: | Collaboration UBports | devices arrived late; UBports decided to prioritize the PinePhone port

Change:
:white_check_mark: | Runs UBports | status, video
To:
( :white_check_mark: ) | Runs UBports’ Ubuntu Touch | status, video, prioritizing port to PinePhone

Change:
:white_check_mark: | Collaboration Plasma
To:
( :white_check_mark: ) | Collaboration KDE | Support for Qt/KDE apps added to Phosh, but porting Plasma Mobile to the Librem 5 has stalled

Change status of “Runs Plasma Mobile” to “( :white_check_mark: )”

Purism’s work on the Plasma Mobile port stopped when Bob Ham left Purism, but it should be possible to use Plasma Mobile through postmarketOS port, which needs verification.

Change:
CPU separate from Baseband
To:
CPU separate from cellular baseband

Add:
(Plastic screen protector in box)

Add:
(Anbox support to run Android apps) | Mentioned as a stretch goal in original crowfunding

Add:
(Published x-rays of phone) | To detect tampering and inserted spy chips

Add:
(internal plastic cover and screws) | Covers PCBs so anti-interdiction services can detect tampering

For “Collaboration Matrix”, change its status to :ballot_box_with_check:
Add note:
Paid a developer to work on Fractal, a Matrix client

Has anyone verified that Fractal works in the Librem 5?

Change:
(quick charge)
To:
(Power Delivery quick charging)
Add note:
Supports up to 2A x 12V (24W) charging

Change:
(power supply), matching buyer’s area
To:
(Power Delivery charger in box) | plugs match buyer’s region of world
