A handheld Linux terminal using Raspberry pi Zero 2W as Core with 4" 720X720 TFT display and the original BlackBerry Keyboard
The main reason why I design and built this handheld cyberdeck is to treat this as a lernning tool and also a funny toy for the hackers. It is powered by a raspberry pi zero 2w and a 4" 720X720 TFT display.
Here are some Main Features:
Main Processor: Only compatible with Raspberry Pi Zero 2w.
Display: 4" 720X720 high resolution TFT display.
Dual Swappable battery Design: Replace your battery in 10 seconds without killing the power!
Battery Type: Nokia BL-5C. You can buy it anywhere in the world.
Battery Life: In my testing: 3.5 hours using the desktop, 5 hours on the commandline.
Keyboard Mouse Combo: Yes, this cyberdeck has keyboard and mouse combo on board. You can choose blackberry Q10 or Q20 or 9900 keyboard.
Fully customizable keymap: You can connect the keyboard with a computer and customizable the keymap through VIAL easily.
3 USB2.0 Ports: This handheld has 3 USB2.0 Ports, you can use it with USB-Stick or 4G Module Dongle or any USB thing.

Turn the red switch to the right position and then press the red button to the left side of the red switch to power the USB Hub Controller Chip otherwise the keyboard can't be used! At the same time the indicator for the battery voltage will be turned on.
The keyboard type is blackberry Q10 or Q20 keyboard. Both have the same keyboard layout.
There is a red switch on the left side to decide if the keyboard controller communicates with the HackberryPi or with other device through the USBC-Port underneath.
The idea about this is you can connect the keyboard with your computer and customize the keymap using VIAL or the handheld can be used as an emergency keyboard mouse combo.
Put the red switch to the lower position, connect the keyboard with your computer, open VIAL page, then you can customize the keymap yourself.
You can install Kali, Raspberrypi OS, or Retropi and many other OS into HackberryPi.
This page will tell you how to install the display driver in a different operating system.
And this page will tell you some basic settings on different OS to make HackberryPi have better performance.
