Aura 1:st edition, N514 support? #56

Open granfot opened 1 year ago

granfot commented 1 year ago

Hey, I just found this and ran off rummaging through the heaps of junk lying around. Pulled out my old trustworthy Aura and like a child on Christmas eve dived in to the bits and bons out there. Only to find out that my reader is an antique and there's no support for it. However, I might be able to get my attention span pointed to this and help out with some guidance.

I will head over to the Matrix space but figured I'd put the question here first. If there already is a version flying around out there or if there is a very valid reason why not perhaps someone with the same hardware can benefit from this issue.

Thanks in advance!

This device has an eMMC. I have one but the screen is completely broken. It could work with some porting work but would probably be a bit harder.

Could you elaborate on the porting procedure? I recently bought the same model (N514) and I would love to use this os! Where should I start?

Look up porting threads on discord, to look up how it worked out for other devices

jspkay commented 4 months ago

Where can I find the discord server though?

It's hidden in the darkest realms of the readme file :smile: image

Oh thank you! It flew unnoticed every time I read it 🤭
