Every line in the boot path is code we wrote. There is zero Apple code between power-on and Linux. The bootloader is ours, top to bottom. To our knowledge, no one has done this on an A13 device before.
Not a fan of apple personally, but this seems like a really cool project
Congratulations. This was probably not an easy feat.
That is genuinely impressive
If they make it a full blown top tier phone, that would be awesome
Agreed, but we’ve got to start somewhere, and 11s are cheap and readily available.
Edit. I like iPhone hardware, but cannot stand ios. If I can have an iPhone with Linux…
Also agreed with that. IOS have overengineered a lot of things too. Even turning them off, is stupidly difficult these days
Agreed! I shouldn’t have to DDG how to shut off a phone. I should just be able to hold the power button. It should be simple. But noooooo
