Sorry, but you were forced to use GPL license for the Pure OS, or am I wrong? It’s based on freeRTOS which was GPL. Because the way you wrote it sounded like you did it voluntarily.
This reminds me to ask some questions again, which no-one from the leading staff, dev or design has answered me, even though one of the most popular topics on this forum since the release of the phone.
- Are you guys going to release E-ink modes so we can control the display modes in per-app bases?
- Are you guys going to release an SDK so we can access the E-ink modes for the community apps?
(i know you mentioned you’re releasing the design system, but that means nothing to me if it doesn’t explicitly include controlling E-ink modes). - Are you guys going to release the modified Kernel sources, which are an obligation from AOSP?
You guys seem to ignore that most of us bought this phone for the Hardware, and when I say hardware I don’t mean the mt6761 or the 3gb of ram. We bought it for the compact size, e-ink display. And the E-ink display it’s not being utilized to its capabilities.
I’ll tell this one bluntly too:
I don’t think there’s a customer out there waiting for the song search to come in Early 2026. And there’s no other manufacturers out there waiting in line to get the source code of your music player either.
So make your developers life easier, make your customers experience better and use GPL licensed apps.
