Fairphone 6 与 PostmarketOS 主摄像头适配进展
Today i bring the working main camera! Building on the work nondescriptpointer did on the wide lens camera i have written the driver for the main camera and now its working alongside auto focus and color correction. 今天我带来了主摄像头的适配成果！在 nondescriptpointer 对广角镜头所做工作的基础上，我编写了主摄像头的驱动程序，目前它已经可以正常工作，并支持自动对焦和色彩校正。
The color correction still a work in progress, but you can already see how much it improved the image. 色彩校正工作仍在进行中，但你已经可以看到它对图像质量的显著提升。
But the after is still very grainy, plasma camera storing in jpg isn’t exactly helping either, ill be working to get rid of the grain. If we look at the same scene form my android galaxy A16 you see that there still is alot of work to be done. 不过处理后的图像仍然有很多噪点，Plasma 相机以 JPG 格式存储数据也无济于事，我接下来会致力于消除这些噪点。如果我们对比一下我那台安卓 Galaxy A16 拍摄的同一场景，就会发现还有很多工作要做。
I’ll continue to work on the camera, but i wanted to get something out today (mainly so i could send to nondescriptpointer xd). I asked him what role he wanted to play in the upstreaming and we agreed he would send it and i would review and assist. So i successfully pulled down another soul into the linux phone kernel rabbit hole muhahahahaha. 我会继续优化相机，但今天我想先发布一些成果（主要是为了发给 nondescriptpointer，哈哈）。我询问了他想在代码上游化中扮演什么角色，我们商定由他提交代码，我负责审查和协助。就这样，我成功地把另一个人拉进了 Linux 手机内核的深坑里，哈哈哈。
News roundup
新闻汇总
Alot of things happend lately so good thing to discuss them, the big one: Emergency calling test. You may have noticed that everywhere i put warnings that emergency calling is not verified yet. i wanted to fix that but after searching i couldn’t find anything about it. 最近发生了很多事情，值得讨论一下，其中最重要的一项是：紧急呼叫测试。你可能注意到我在各处都标注了“紧急呼叫尚未验证”的警告。我一直想解决这个问题，但在搜索后却找不到相关信息。
So i just called the police non-emergency line and explained the situation, the operator told me that the information wasn’t public but provided me with an email to send my application to. I was a bit sad cause if its a non public thing its probably gated behind being big tech, but i send the email anyway, and much to my suprise i got back. 于是我直接拨打了警方的非紧急求助热线并说明了情况。接线员告诉我相关信息不对外公开，但给了我一个邮箱地址让我提交申请。我当时有点沮丧，因为如果这是非公开事项，通常只有大科技公司才能接触到，但我还是发了邮件。令我惊讶的是，我收到了回复。
Translation: The tests have been approved for Tuesday, August 18, between 1:30 p.m. and 2:15 p.m. Kind regards, (name censored) B ICT, Tactical & Technical Management 1-1-2 (TB112) 译文：测试已获批，时间为 8 月 18 日星期二下午 1:30 至 2:15。顺颂商祺，(姓名已屏蔽) B ICT，战术与技术管理 1-1-2 (TB112)
So I’m really excited for this, and then you know for sure that you can reach the emergency number with your linux phone. 对此我感到非常兴奋，因为这意味着你可以确信自己的 Linux 手机能够拨通紧急求助电话。
Fairphone 6+
Fairphone 6+
So the Fairphone 6+ has been officially announced and as soon as i can buy one im buying one, testing my image, and fixing any issues. I’m really glad for the donations so i can justify to myself this purchase instead of spending 650 euros for a phone that i already have. Fairphone 6+ 已经正式发布了，我一能买到就会立刻入手，测试我的系统镜像并修复任何问题。我非常感谢大家的捐赠，这让我有理由说服自己购买它，而不是为了一个我已经拥有的手机再花 650 欧元。
Donations
捐赠
I’m really grateful for all the people that donated and still continue to donate, i was over the moon when i got my first donation and i never expected to get this much. From the bottom of my heart thank you all very much. I want to be open on where it’s going. And i think as donators you deserve to know that its being spent wisely. so i made a script that builds this page from my bank statement: https://catcrafts.net/financials 我非常感谢所有捐赠过以及持续捐赠的朋友。收到第一笔捐赠时我欣喜若狂，从未想过能获得这么多支持。衷心感谢大家。我希望公开资金去向，作为捐赠者，你们有权知道钱是否被合理使用。所以我写了一个脚本，可以根据我的银行对账单自动生成这个页面：https://catcrafts.net/financials
If it all works then donations should be reflected live and it will show the expense for the FP6+ when i buy it, net will drop in the negative as the remainder is coming out of my pocket. If you want to send a donation please do so to the updated link: https://catcrafts.net/shop/donation this will be reflected in the dashboard live and for tax reasons its now mega clear that its a donation. 如果一切运行正常，捐赠信息将实时更新。当我购买 FP6+ 时，支出也会显示出来，净余额会变为负数，因为剩余部分是我自掏腰包。如果你想捐赠，请使用更新后的链接：https://catcrafts.net/shop/donation。这会实时反映在仪表板上，且出于税务原因，现在可以明确显示这是一笔捐赠。
Catcrafts as a company
Catcrafts 公司化
I’m contacting a notary with the plans to have Catcrafts corporated as a non-profit company (stichting), this is depending on all the legal stuff however so this isn’t set in stone. If and if this company goes somewhere and i could quit my job, i will pay myself a salary to live on that will be publicly visible on the financials page. Dutch law requires for non-profits that salary to be at max market confirming and not a shadow way for paying out dividends, so its guaranteed that any money in the company will go towards furthering the mission. 我正在联系公证人，计划将 Catcrafts 注册为非营利组织（Stichting）。但这取决于法律程序，目前尚未最终确定。如果公司发展顺利，我能够辞去工作，我会给自己发一份维持生活的基本工资，并会在财务页面公开。荷兰法律要求非营利组织的薪资不得超过市场水平，且不能作为变相分红的手段，因此可以保证公司资金将全部用于推进使命。
I think a non-profit phone company has a genuinely good proposition, i praise fairphone alot for the things they do right but in the end they are still an profit seeking business so im a bit wary, and they still post on Musk’s X so my long term judgement on their company is still out there. I applied to be a fairphone partner with in my eyes a pretty good pitch, if they accept my opinion will be improved ;) hopefully i just need to have more patience or they are ghosting me ;-; 我认为非营利手机公司是一个非常好的构想。我非常赞赏 Fairphone 所做的正确之事，但归根结底他们仍是一家追求利润的企业，所以我持保留态度。而且他们仍在马斯克的 X 平台上发帖，所以我对他们公司的长期评价还有待观察。我提交了成为 Fairphone 合作伙伴的申请，我认为我的方案相当不错。如果他们接受，我对他们的看法会有所改观 ;) 希望我只是需要更多耐心，而不是被他们无视了 ;-;
Shipping restrictions
运输限制
I’m sad to announce this but i don’t think i can do worldwide shipping, earlier i said i would be shipping worldwide but i must sadly retract that statement for reasons out of my control. I will be shipping worldwide with the following exceptions: 很遗憾地通知大家，我恐怕无法进行全球发货。之前我说过可以全球发货，但由于一些我无法控制的原因，我不得不收回这一承诺。我将进行全球发货，但以下地区除外：
- US, CA: It’s seemingly impossible to get a Bedrijfsaansprakelijkheidsverzekering (corporate liability insurance) for the United States and Canada in the Netherlands, its all worldwide excluding US and CA. Getting coverage for those requires “contact us” with probably a very hefty premium, and selling without insurance is too risky as that would mean financial ruin if i get sued. 美国、加拿大： 在荷兰似乎无法为美国和加拿大购买企业责任保险，保险范围通常是“全球除美加外”。要获得这两个地区的承保需要“联系我们”，且保费可能非常昂贵。在没有保险的情况下销售风险太大，一旦被起诉可能导致破产。
- RU, BY, KP: Sanctions make it a criminal offense for me to ship to these countries. 俄罗斯、白俄罗斯、朝鲜： 由于制裁，向这些国家发货对我来说属于刑事犯罪。

Making a Linux phone
制造 Linux 手机
Ever since this project i’ve been dreaming about making my own linux phone, i’ve been looking into it here and there and while this might just be the sleep deprivation talking i think i can do it. Making a good linux phone however is the hard part, and i don’t think i can make an better arm linux phone then the fairphone 6 as those qualcomm chips are impossible to buy. So im not going to, i’ll make a RISCV one. will it be bad? yes, will it end up like the pinephone? most probably, will it run hot and have terrible battery life?, most like 自从开始这个项目，我就一直梦想着制造自己的 Linux 手机。我一直在各处研究，虽然这可能只是我睡眠不足时的胡言乱语，但我认为我能做到。然而，制造一部优秀的 Linux 手机很难，我不认为我能制造出比 Fairphone 6 更好的 ARM 架构 Linux 手机，因为那些高通芯片根本买不到。所以我不会走这条路，我打算制造一部 RISC-V 架构的手机。它会很烂吗？是的。它会像 PinePhone 那样吗？很有可能。它会发热严重且电池续航极差吗？很有可能。
