Since Jan 11, 2022, I have worked on getting the Nexus 5 over on Mobian.

Here's a year of progress.

I will update my repo soon.

This is amazing, I will have to dig out my old Nexus 5 and give it a try someday. Nexus 5 was my favorite form factor of any touchscreen phone I've owned.

Yup, it'a somewhat stable as long as you don't do any intensive task.

Web browsing, SIM, BT, and Kernel Instability are my main concern.

Give it a try!
