What else can and should I do with it?
>>
>>58907167
Return that piece of shit while you still can
>>
>>58907196
Is it really as shit as some people say or does it just have a couple of problems here and there? looks neat enough, and I won't use it for more than music, postan and some games
>>
>>58907240
You'd be better off with a PSP Go
>>
>>58907240
It's REALLY shit even for web browsing and especially for games. Hope you didn't pay more than 20 bucks for it

>>58907261
Already got one
>>58907262
Would installing ubuntu make it more or less shit? If it can post text and images, I'll be fine. I don't have high standards


If that fails, would it be useful for parts?
>>
>>58907287
Ubuntu touch? Has basically no support and will run like shit. No, you can't do anything with it than sell to some other idiot

>>58907317
But can I play games and listen to music?
That's all I want
If not...
>>
>>58907350
Ubuntu touch has no games and no proper hardware support for your device
>>
>>58907371
Are there any other forms of ubuntu or linux that might work with it?
>>
>>58907384
No
>>
>>58907384
No idea, but the CPU in that phone is so shit that nothing will run properly
>>
>>58907407
It's not really the CPU as much as the CPU and software combination. The PSP is a much more capable device while running at a 3rd the clock (if overclocked, stock for most games was 233MHz or something, and I know it's not a perfect comparison to use clock to compare devices across architectures but still) and with much less memory.
>>
>>58907455
Sure, but new apps just aren't designed for an 1GHz single core android
>>
>>58907484
Like I said, software's a big part of the problem.
>>
So there's nothing I can do with it?
>>
>>58907499
You can sell it to another idiot
>>
>>58907499
What was your thought process when buying this (if any)?
>>
>>58907577
>Hey, this looks neat. I'll probably just use it for music calling, but maybe I can put pppsspp and gbsp on it and have a decent phone with physical controls
>>
>>58907613
And you din't look up how fast the CPU is?
>>
>>58907635
eh..
>>
>>58907613
You should be good with it for PlayStation and Game Boy games. I've played those and more on shittier Android devices
>>
>>58907167
Root and Install Gentoo on it
>>
>>58907782
What does gentoo do?
>>
>>58907966
Gentoo is a easy to install operating system for beginners, no real challenge
>>
>>58907613
So obviously you did research about the capabilities of the device before buying it no?
>>
>>58907995
Well, no other phone has a psp control layout, eh?
>>
>>58908030
I'm asking if you checked the capabilities of the device beforehand to find out if what you're going to use it for is sufficient.

Seems like you have a lot of ambiguity and uncertainty around your purchase.
>>
>>58908210
Ok dad, I'll consider my purchases next time
>>
>>58908340
Might be a smart thing to do instead of purchasing things and then wondering what you're going to do with it, and soliciting advice on a bhutanese water chestnut farmer forum.
