I have 14 year old Google Nexus One/HTC Bravo for nostalgia because it was my first smart phone. It can no longer connect to the Play Store and is currently not usable although it's perfectly capable. I struggled to find a good rom and easy install process for it. I would love to install LibreOS, PostmarketOS or something like that on it. Any recommendations?
- anotherhue 2y agoI went down this road and your best bet is an old build of CM, nothing modern will work and even then you need to do funky things with the internal storage (Blackrose IIRC). My recommendation is flash it back to stock 2.3 (I think that's what it shipped with) and enjoy the nostalgia. Oh and get one of those charging docs while they're still on ebay.
- tomcam 2y agoWhat's CM? CyanogenMod?
- jeroenhd 2y agopmOS has a device page: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/HTC_Desire_(htc-bravo) https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/HTC_Desire_(htc-bravo) You'll need to tweak the old code base that was tested, though, as armhf is being dropped by many distros, yet that was the default for many devices from around that generation. I don't think the process will break much, but it deviates from that standard install process.
