Rustphone

(temporary name) (early development)

OS for a dumbphone based on Maduino Zero 4G LTE board.

Goals

GSM will be shutting down in France in a few years so if you have an old cellphone and don't want to buy a fancy, spying, expensive smartphone, making your own 4G cellphone is an interesting option.

  • Low cost
  • Privacy
  • Long battery life (this one will be complicated)
    • Low-consumption components
    • Use less CPU cycles
    • Update display less often
    • Use less wireless RX/TX
  • Usable for basic things (call, messages, agenda, contacts, notepad)
  • Customizable (smartphones don't do exactly what I want)
  • (long term) Mesh networking and other cool stuff

Install tools

sudo pacman -S arm-none-eabi-gcc
rustup target add thumbv6m-none-eabi

Run simulator

cargo run --features simulator

Build

cargo build --release --target thumbv6m-none-eabi

Keypad

Optimized to reduce the number of consecutive presses on the same key in French.

For example, the letters m, o, n are on the same key MNO6 but they frequently appear consecutively in French, so you have to wait between each letter. Having them on three different keys solves this problem.
