After more than the year of development, the release of the updated distribution was taken for mobile phones nemomobile version 0.7 Sending Mer Project Workouts, but based on the manjaroarm project.

Nemomobile was originally planned as an open replacement for the Harmattan project from Nokia and was developed in the community cooperation and Jolla. However, over time, Jolla focused on partially closed Sailfishos without paying due attention to the open part of the MER – NEMOMOBILE project. The latest release of Nemomobile took place in April 2013

In 2019, the enthusiast team is started NEMOMOBILE components from the MER base to the MANJARO database. Also there were projects on transferring Nemomobile to other operating systems as Fedora and Openembedend. The main reason for the transition from the MER base was outdated components. In particular, the QT version 5.6 is still used in MER due to licensed restrictions.

At the moment, the NEMOMOBILE components are transmitted to QT 5.15 and other modern versions of the packages. Missing applications, such as contacts, mail, browser, settings, weather, batch manager, Polkit agent and authentication plugin. All applications and services are open under GPL and BSD licenses and are available on GitHub project.
