i am thinking of doing battery mod, remove the keyboard, fit a (or 2 or 3) massive battery/(ies). i had a 1800 maH (same as BL-5J) battery from a phone (B369) that was built by an Indian manufacturer LEMON that could be used in nokia n900 but without the back cover and my device showed like 900 maH in the status menu, device does not show values greater than what original battery had. i want to fit two or three of them but there is a problem, my device is in a very good condition so i will be looking for another one in coming days.

This thread is about building a "new" N900 out of an android phone like the Samsung A7, will also do the nexus 5 when i get one so we have that for the linux projects.

I HATE the disorganized Android based UI experience and I also dislike how weak the CLI is even on LineageOS with busybox installed.
N900/Maemo5 I can do damn near anything up to writing an app using only some quick and dirty scripting; launch it from desktop icon and run it in a terminal window. because of blb drivers though we cant use modern kernels so we have trouble backporting stuff like a usable web browser.
Maemo/linux N series (with drivers exception)empowers users, Android is made to give phone companies power over users.

Another device that might be worth keeping in mind in the long term could be the Necuno Mobile [1], especially since Maemo Leste seems to be on the table. [2]
I don't see this device released in the foreseeable future, but that might be a chance to get in contact to agree upon a useful keyboard mounting interface.

I am thinking about designing a qwerty case for my note 9, this time 3d printed.
However, on this new phones, a slider keyboard is not practical because of the position of the camera and fingerprint sensor on the back. The keyboard would cover them:
That's why i think a flip option could be better:
And I think a note phone is a better option because of the pen which resembles the n900 pen

then i hope down the line it can be "re-flashed" with full linux, the "Linux Deploy" is also a nice option, would like a maemo clone but also if somebody could just make a "maemo home screen" app that also comes with Message system like N900 and really want the task/window switcher the N900 has as it is still the best function and loved having message windows open so i could keep track of things etc
