AI can speed up a lot of the manual labour needed to bring even an almost dead, 10-year-old device back to life. My Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (oxygen, MSM8953) was dead. With AI help and my own knowledge, I ported/rewrote the missing drivers, and it now runs Nura (postmarketOS) with working camera, torch, SIM, phone calls and SMS. Only the loudspeaker is still broken.

Everything is up for anyone who wants to install it, or to understand the changes and manually write the patches for mainline: https://github.com/sv1sjp/mi-max2-oxygen-msm8953-nura-drivers Testing, feedback and PRs welcome.

    No coping, “idealist” is not the slur you think it is, and it isn’t even relevant to this.

    ai is owned and controlled by really dodgy people. If you watch videos of jensen huang, sam altman, alex karp, elon musk etc, and don’t see anything wrong, you are what is wrong. trump is a huge fan…

    You are the only person who is to blame for you lack of standards.
