## 1. What Is Prepared in This Workspace

### 1.1 System Images (`images/`)
- `images/bananarchy-nokia-argon.img` (linked as `images/nokia-argon-sxmo.img`) — Raw partitioned image (`256 MiB` `ext2` `pmOS_boot` + `ext4` `pmOS_root`) ready for EDL flashing to `userdata` or raw `dd` to a microSD card.
- `images/bananarchy-nokia-argon.sparse.img` (linked as `images/nokia-argon-sxmo.sparse.img`) — Android sparse image for `fastboot flash userdata`.
- `images/boot-bananarchy-nokia-argon.img` (linked as `images/boot-nokia-argon-sxmo.img`) — Standalone Android `boot.img` with Linux `6.12.1-msm8916`, initramfs, and appended DTB.
- Additional device images (`bananarchy-nokia-beatles.img`, `bananarchy-nokia-tough.img`, `bananarchy-nokia-sparkler.img`) can be generated at any time via `./rebuild-image.sh <device> --mkinitfs`.

### 1.2 Bootloader & EDL Programmer (`bootloader/`)
- `bootloader/lk2nd-msm8909.img` — Secondary bootloader (`lk2nd`) providing Fastboot and `extlinux` boot discovery for MSM8905/MSM8909 devices.

### 1.3 Integrated Hardware & UX Tweaks
1. **Native 1:1 `240x320` Resolution & Enlarged Fonts**:
   - Sway runs at `output * scale 1` (`SXMO_SWAY_SCALE=1`) with Xwayland disabled to save RAM.
   - Enlarged fonts across all UI layers: `Sxmo 13` window titles and `24px` top bar, `34pt`/`14pt` Conky clock/date positioned cleanly above the Bananarchy emblem wallpaper, `15px` bold Wofi full-screen menus (`240x296`), `13pt` Foot terminal font, `220x28` Wob volume/brightness overlay, and `12pt` Dunst notifications.
2. **Multi-Mode `fcitx5-t9` Keypad Engine (`src/fcitx5-t9/`)**:
   - Supports 6 input modes cycled with `#` (`XF86NumericPound`): `abc`, `Abc`, `ABC`, `Sym`, `Ctl`, and `123`.
   - Includes instant case toggling during preedit, full 32-character ASCII punctuation/symbol entry, terminal control sequences (`^A`–`^Z`, `Esc`, `Tab`, `F1`–`F12`), and a `450ms` long-press `*` `Ctrl+` modifier latch.
3. **Bantam DIY AI Agent (`prebuilt/bantam/bantam`)**:
   - Fetched from the latest `master` branch of `https://code.luxferre.top/luxferre/bantam-cpp`, cross-compiled for `armv7`, and installed to `/usr/bin/bantam` and `/usr/local/bin/bantam` (with no default `.bantam.cfg` pre-created).
4. **Mainline 6.12.1-msm8916 QDSP6 Audio, Voice Call & LTE Modem Stack**:
   - Patched `q6core`, `q6afe`, `q6afe-dai`, `q6voice-dai`, `q6mvm`, and device trees (`VoiceMMode1` DAI + PM8909 WCD codec).
   - WirePlumber `50-s16le.lua` (`S16LE` sample format enforcement), ALSA UCM2 profiles (`HiFi.conf` and `VoiceCall.conf`), `q6voiced`, `rmtfs`, `msm-modem-uim-selection`, `msm8909-modem-wwan-port`, and `ModemManager`.
5. **Memory & Swap Tuning for 512 MB RAM**:
   - `384 MiB` ZSTD-compressed `zram0` swap (priority `100`) + `512 MiB` `/swapfile` (priority `10`), with `vm.swappiness=100` and `vm.page-cluster=0`.

## 2. Flashing Instructions

### Method A: Automated USB EDL Flasher (Recommended)

Run the automated EDL flasher from the repository root on your host machine:
```bash
sudo ./flash-edl.sh
```
*(To flash another target device image, pass its codename, e.g. `sudo ./flash-edl.sh nokia-sparkler`.)*

The script will:
1. Temporarily pause host `ModemManager` so it does not interfere with `05c6:9008`.
2. Wait for the phone to appear in Qualcomm EDL mode (`05c6:9008`):
   - **Button combo**: Power off the phone, hold **D-Pad Up + D-Pad Down**, and plug in the USB cable.
   - **EDL cable**: Hold the EDL cable button while plugging in USB.
   - **From ADB / Fastboot**: The script automatically sends `adb reboot edl` or `fastboot oem edl` if detected.
3. Upload `bootloader/loaders/8110.mbn` via Sahara and connect to eMMC via Firehose.
4. Back up `gpt.bin`, `fsc`, `fsg`, `modemst1`, `modemst2`, `persist`, and `boot` into `./backup/` (if not already backed up).
5. Flash `lk2nd-msm8909.img` to `boot`, flash `images/bananarchy-<device>.img` to `userdata`, clear the stock `system` superblock, and reboot into Bananarchy Linux.

---

### Method B: Fastboot Flashing (Once `lk2nd` Is Installed)

1. Hold **D-Pad Up** while powering on the phone to enter `lk2nd` Fastboot mode.
2. Flash the sparse system image to `userdata`:
   ```bash
   fastboot flash userdata ./images/bananarchy-nokia-argon.sparse.img
   fastboot erase system
   fastboot reboot
   ```

---

### Method C: Booting from a microSD Card

`lk2nd` automatically checks the microSD card for a `pmOS_boot` partition before internal eMMC:
```bash
sudo dd if=./images/bananarchy-nokia-argon.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress conv=fsync
```

## 3. Keypad Controls & Multi-Mode T9 Input Guide

### 3.1 Global Sxmo Keypad Controls (`240x320`)

| Physical Key | Linux Keysym / Event | Action in Sxmo |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Left Softkey** | `XF86KbdLcdMenu1` (`KEY_MENU`) | Open **System Menu**, close open menu, or wake & unlock when locked |
| **Right Softkey / Back** | `XF86KbdLcdMenu2` / `BackSpace` (`KEY_BACK`) | Open **App Context Menu** (or close menu if open); in apps/T9 preedit acts as `BackSpace` |
| **Call (Green)** | `XF86PickupPhone` (`KEY_SEND`) | Wake & unlock when locked, confirm (`Return`) in menus, or: **1×** Answer call / **App Context Menu**, **2×** **Focus Next Window**, **3×** **Toggle Tiling Layout** (`Vertical` -> `Horizontal` -> `Tabbed`) |

| **D-Pad Up / Down** | `Up` / `Down` | Navigate menus/apps; in T9 preedit: toggle letter case (`a` ↔ `A`) or jump `+4` / `-4` candidates; in idle `Ctl` mode: `Page_Up` / `Page_Down` |
| **D-Pad Left / Right** | `Left` / `Right` | Move cursor; in T9 preedit: step back 1 candidate (`Left`) / commit candidate (`Right`); in idle `Ctl` mode: `Home` / `End` |
| **Center OK** | `Return` (`KEY_OK`) | Confirm / Enter, or commit active T9 preedit candidate immediately |
| **Slider Close / Open** | `SW_LID` (`lid:on` / `lid:off`) | **Close**: close open menu, turn off keypad backlight, and lock/turn screen off; **Open**: restore keypad backlight, unlock, and turn screen on |

> **Waking & Unlocking After Screen Fade**:
> When the screen turns off after inactivity (or when the slider is closed), you can wake and unlock the phone in a single action by either:
> - **Opening the slider** (`SW_LID` off), or
> - Pressing **End / Power (Red)**, **Left Softkey**, **Right Softkey**, or **Call (Green)** once.

#### 3.1.1 Window Tiling Modes & Switching Combos
By default, Sxmo Sway is configured with **`default_orientation vertical` (`splitv`)**, so opening multiple terminals stacks them **vertically (one terminal under another)** to maximize line width on the `240x320` portrait screen.

You can switch between **Vertical (`splitv`, one under another)**, **Horizontal (`splith`, side-by-side)**, and **Tabbed (`tabbed`, full-screen tabs)** layouts — as well as switch focus between open terminals — using any of the following combos:

1. **Direct Physical Keypad Combos**:
   - **Triple-press Call (Green) (`3× Call`)**: Cycles the current container layout (`Vertical splitv` -> `Horizontal splith` -> `Tabbed` -> `Vertical splitv`).
   - **Double-press Call (Green) (`2× Call`)**: Switches focus to the next open window/terminal (e.g., jumps between the top and bottom terminals).
   - **Triple-press (or hold `400ms`) End / Power (Red) (`3× End`)**: Opens a new `Foot` terminal tiled in the active layout.
2. **Terminal Context Menu (`Right Softkey` or `1× Call (Green)` inside `Foot`)**:
   - **Next Window**: Switch focus to the next open terminal/window.
   - **Toggle Layout**: Cycle `splitv` -> `splith` -> `tabbed`.
   - **Tile Vertical**: Immediately arrange open windows vertically (one under another) and set future splits to vertical.
   - **Tile Horizontal**: Immediately arrange open windows horizontally (side-by-side) and set future splits to horizontal.
   - **New Terminal** / **Close Terminal**: Open a new terminal or close the focused terminal.
3. **System Windows Menu (`Left Softkey` -> `Windows`)**:
   - **Next window**: Focus the next window in the workspace.
   - **`splitv -> splith -> tabbed`**: Cycle container layout mode.
   - **Split vertical** / **Split horizontal** / **Tabbed layout**: Switch directly to the chosen layout.
   - **Switch menu** / **Move menu** / **Kill window**: Switch to any window across workspaces, move windows between positions/workspaces, or close the focused window.
4. **External Keyboard / `swaymsg` (`$mod` = `Mod4` / `Super`)**:
   - `Mod4+v`: Vertical split (`splitv`)
   - `Mod4+b`: Horizontal split (`splith`)
   - `Mod4+e`: Toggle split orientation (`layout toggle split` between vertical and horizontal)
   - `Mod4+w`: Tabbed layout (`layout tabbed`)
   - `Mod4+s`: Stacking layout (`layout stacking`)
   - `Mod4+f`: Toggle fullscreen (`fullscreen`)
   - `Mod4+Up` / `Mod4+Down` / `Mod4+Left` / `Mod4+Right`: Move focus between tiled windows
   - `Mod4+Shift+Up` / `Mod4+Shift+Down` / `Mod4+Shift+Left` / `Mod4+Shift+Right`: Reposition focused window

### 3.2 Multi-Mode `fcitx5-t9` Keypad Reference

- **Short-press `#`** *(when no character is in preedit)*: Cycles through the 6 input modes (`abc` -> `Abc` -> `ABC` -> `Sym` -> `Ctl` -> `123` -> `abc`), displaying a `900ms` preedit status banner (`[Mode: abc]`, `[Mode: Abc]`, `[Mode: ABC]`, `[Mode: Sym]`, `[Mode: Ctl]`, `[Mode: 123]`).
- **Auto-commit timeout**: `600ms` for keys with `<= 10` candidates, or `750ms` for keys with `> 10` candidates (`1` and `*` in `abc`/`Abc`/`ABC`, `*` in `Sym`, `9` in `Ctl`). Pressing a different key immediately commits the active candidate.
- **While a candidate is highlighted (`[item]`) in preedit**:
  - Press **`#`** or **D-Pad `Up`**: Toggles letter case (`a` <-> `A`) on the fly without changing mode, or jumps forward **`+4` candidates** for non-alphabetic items.
  - Press **D-Pad `Down`**: Toggles letter case (`a` <-> `A`) for alphabetic items, or jumps backward **`-4` candidates** for non-alphabetic items.
  - Press **D-Pad `Left`**: Steps backward **1 candidate** on the same key.
  - Press **D-Pad `Right`** or **Center `OK` (`Return`)**: Commits the highlighted candidate immediately.
  - Press **`BackSpace`**: Cancels the uncommitted preedit candidate without deleting previously committed text.
- **Long-press (`>= 450ms`)**:
  - **Hold `0`–`9`**: Commits the digit (`0`–`9`) immediately in any mode.
  - **Hold `*`**:
    - In `123` mode: Commits a decimal point (`.`) immediately.
    - In all other modes: Toggles a one-shot **`Ctrl+` modifier latch** (`[Ctrl+ LATCH ON]` / `[Ctrl+ LATCH OFF]`; mode prefix shows `+^`, e.g. `abc+^`). The next committed key (`a`–`z`, `[`, `\`, `]`, `^`/`6`, `_`/`-`) is sent as `Ctrl+<key>`.
  - **Hold `#`**: Commits a literal `#` character immediately in any mode.

#### Modes 1–3: `abc` (Lowercase), `Abc` (One-Shot Shift), `ABC` (Caps Lock)
*(In `Abc` and `ABC` modes, uppercase letters precede the digit and lowercase letters on keys `2`–`9`. In `Abc` mode, committing an alphabetic character automatically reverts to `abc`.)*

#### Mode 5: `Ctl` (Terminal Control Characters, Navigation & Function Keys)
- **Direct D-Pad Navigation** *(when no preedit candidate is active in `Ctl` mode)*:
  - **D-Pad `Up` / `Down`**: Sends `Page_Up` (`PgUp`) / `Page_Down` (`PgDn`) immediately.
