POLL: Should there be Free Fairphones for Developers?

@Douwe

I can tell you from experience it does not work.

@chrmhoffmann pushed an update recently with the new blobs, have you tried that one?

@Douwe

I also reached out to you @z3ntu, @snevas and to @chrmhoffmann with an offer to lend a FP2 for sometime to develop, but none of you seemed to need one. If that has changed, please let me know!

It was mostly that getting one for two weeks or so isn’t making a huge difference as most stuff will probably take longer than that. Getting one for two months or so is a different story.

Nope, haven’t tried it yet. Is it available as OTA update, or do I look elsewhere?

We can always discuss possibilities. I can send you the community/dev phone today and you can use it until somebody else claims to have a higher need for it. After you declined to need it it has been laying on my desk. That was over 2 months ago

I don’t think yet (we have kernel problems so a new OTA wasn’t published yet). But I antweb on Matrix/IRC said he’ll do a build so maybe he can send it to you.

Yes, I would appreciate that. Should I send you my address in a PM?

According to DHL I should have my new camera tomorrow. If you need someone to test the camera with a new build please let me know…

You can count me in.
