FP2 - Fairphone 2

The Fairphone 2 is the smartphone made with highest priority for fair production worldwide (AFAIK) and extremely easy to repair (compared to other phones), This makes this a great candidate for a reference device ;-)

Status

Halium

There are reports of Halium running on the device here, however the locations of the sources are unknown to the author at the moment.

Kernel & Hardware

Mainline (4.13rc4 as of writing)

There is no device tree source inside the mainline kernel specific to the FP2. However, the underlying SoC is present (MSM8974).

UBports kernel (3.4.0 base)

This is probably taken from the Fairphone sources directly and patched with the Ubuntu Touch specific stuff, need to check this further to be sure…
