Claude Code turned a Nothing Phone (1) into a daily-driver mainline Linux phone
notrealdotmp4 · reddit · 2026-10-17
In 10 days and 100 Claude Code sessions — with the agent running on the phone itself, SSHing to a desktop for kernel builds — a Nothing Phone (1) went from a broken mainline Linux to a daily driver: calls, mic, speaker, USB-C DAC, both cameras, real sleep, 25 homemade GTK apps and 5 themes. Key methods: measure before fixing with frame-timing logs, persistent cross-session notes, and letting Claude read logs/dmesg/device trees to write and test fixes. Remaining: 5%/h sleep drain from a DSP that never sleeps.
