Sailfish OS is coming! (we need your help too!)

[DanMcz]

Good news guys!

A great dev, abhisek 9650 (who already ported sailfish os to redmi 2, and about to release a version with android app support) offered me to port it to redmi 4x too, MOD EDIT:REMOVED

MOD EDIT: DONATIONS ARE ONLY FOR APPRECIATION OF WORK ALREADY GIVEN - NO REQUEST FOR DEVICES ARE ALLOWED

He can make a build and we can test the builds from him. There are many devs who build ROMs inspite of the fact that they do not have the phone BTW team ghost is doing too good for us so sailfish os is also not too far from us.

It would be possible to do it without a device, but hey, he will work for us freely in his free time!

Let me clear this up for everyone, PLEASE DONT send me money,
please use some other platform if you want to crowdfund the project, eg Patreon. , that means it reaches its goals .. we can buy the device and if it doesnt everyone gets their money back.

Second , building any GNU/Linux rom (like SailfishOS, Plasma Mobile, Ubuntu Touch), is all about trial and error,, you need device physically.
Third, sending me money using paypal, make me sound like some scammy $hit .

Has plasma mobile been ported to android and is Ubuntu touch still supported
