That depends on the chip and what you really think you need.
Me personally I'm fine with framebuffer drivers, I don't need hardware acceleration. So that needs no blobs. For some Qualcomm chipsets you can get 3D acceleration working without blobs using freedreno.
I personally started working on getting the qualcomm modem userspace blobs working under pmOS[0].
If you just want pretty much everything to get to work, there's also the halium project[1] which runs a stripped down android in an LXC container to provide that stuff. This could easily be ported to pmOS too.
It really depends on how libre you want your phone to be. Android applications could probably be run on pmOS too using e.g. Anbox[2].

- XorNot 9y agoI mean what I really want is the ability to have my phone just be native Linux/GNU with android in a container. Ideally I'd like to be able to have 2 androids in a container so I've for somewhere to dump work apps and other invasiveness.
