Get started

One known way to put open firmware or software on this device, easiest first. Each one links to the project's own instructions.

Before you start

Back up your data and settings (and the stock firmware, when the guide says how).
Check the exact model, hardware revision and firmware version against the guide: a close model may not work.
Charge the battery or use a stable power supply; do not unplug during the install.

Use SANE (nothing is flashed)

Easy

No tools, the device stays closed · SANE

Device opened: No
Brick risk: None
Reversible: Yes

modem: cellular modem firmware
GPU: graphics driver or firmware
Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi driver or firmware
Bluetooth: Bluetooth firmware
camera: camera driver or image processing
sensors: sensor hub or sensor drivers
bootloader: boot firmware
other: another proprietary part
Cloud: none: works fully locally
Cloud: only at setup: a vendor account is needed once, e.g. to obtain a local key
Cloud: optional: cloud features exist but are not needed
Cloud: required: does not work without the vendor's cloud
Cloud: unknown: not known

Verification

Not verified. A "verified on hardware" badge requires a replayable test (hardware-replay) run on a real device with a stated firmware version.
