bbs's running on android reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sureshot0187 路 2022-08-31 15:16 I'm looking to run a bbs on android. I heard of people doing this, but I cant find any guides or info on it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nevarro 路 2022-09-01 22:17 Hello, This is the only guide/tutorial I'm aware of: [http://www.throwbackbbs.com/galaxy\_linux.html](http://www.throwbackb bs.com/galaxy_linux.html) I think this is an old guide, so I wouldn't use this guide on a phone you care about. Attempting to root a device can brick it. Also, there is very little mention of BBSes in the guide, but they are there. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sureshot0187 路 2022-09-02 13:19 Thanks for the link. It seems like a very niche way of running a bbs. Maby a raspberry pi is the way to to馃槉 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nevarro 路 2022-09-02 18:24 Sure, I've heard of people using a pi with success. If you do decide to try a BBS on an Android device, Synchronet or Mystic for Linux may be your best bet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PaulLee420 路 2022-09-04 19:36 MeaTLoTioN of Quantum Wormhole has a great write-up about running Mystic on Android. He released it as a .PDF and its available in the MeaTLoTioN Mystic Mods File Area @ 2o. \[[20ForBeers.com:1337](https://20ForBeers.com:1337)) The file is named "How\_to\_get\_a\_full\_BBS\_on\_a\_phone.pdf" and goes in-depth on how to forward the ports thru a tunnel even - to use your home internet. At any rate, if I wanted to run bbS software on an Android device, I'd read his write-up. :P ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sureshot0187 路 2022-09-05 11:44 Thanks for the link 馃槉 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro1337_000 路 2022-09-06 02:45 you can always flash the correct rom on the device. you can't really brick it for good.
