I have decided to sell my PineBook Pro.
It comes with an m.2 adapter and has the 128Gb eMMC. It was purchased when these units where available top forum members before they went on general sale.

My Pinephone keyboard isn't connecting to the pogo pins well.  I've tried the shim method, but this only seems to raise the plastic edge of the connector section, rather than the connectors themselves, so didn't correct the issue.  Unless the shim can pass directly under the the connectors (which doesn't seem possible) I can't see how this method would help.  I've tried various shim materials, card, plastic, aluminium drinks can etc.  Experimented with multiple layers of shim etc.

Currently the keyboard only functions for me (with or without a shim) if I apply a little pressure on the rear of the case over the area of the pins.

I'm certain the phone and case are connected correctly, everything has clicked into place.  I could not apply any more pressure to the phone when seating it without risking cracking the display.

Is there an alternate workaround to this issue?

The Wiki says that the Pro will support SDHC and SDXC uSD cards, but I can't find anything in the Wiki that would suggest the Pro will support the UHS-I (Ultra High Speed) uSD cards, so there's no point in spending the extra money ... is that correct?

Hi, I have been enjoying the Pinephone as a daily driver for quite some time and distro hop occasionally.  I really enjoy KDE + Manjaro and am wondering how to enable using the USB as a networking interface to use sftp/ssh/etc for file transfers, as I find this method to be the most preferable for my personal use case.

Is there a specific kernel module that needs to be loaded, and if so what package is it in, if it is not installed.

It would be nice to have a clear step-by-step to enabling everything required in the Wiki, especially since it seems this is the distro Pinephone will be shipping for the foreseeable future.

Really enjoy how solid the hardware has been, and I am impressed how far the Plasma interface has come in such a short time!

Just got my new Pinephone. It worked OK for a day or so, but now it immediately locks the screen whenever I unlock it. Sometimes it gives me a few (fewer than 5) seconds, and sometimes it re-locks so fast that the lock screen appears without anything else even flashing briefly. Most of the time, it locks in a quarter of a second or less.

I'm trying to update the software to see if that will fix it, but that's just not practically achievable. Discover doesn't seem to be doing anything; I tried it when the phone wasn't displaying this problem. It certainly downloaded a lot, and it told me that the phone needed to reboot, and the phone told me it was installing updates on the boot screen when it did reboot. However, all of the packages remained at the same versions, and Discover reported that the same number of updates needed to be installed. I did this three times to no avail.

This problem appeared some time in the space of a few hours after that.

So now I'm trying pacman. I've unlocked the device hundreds of times now, and I have occasionally been able to enter a single character into the terminal (with my USB keyboard; the on-screen keyboard does not even have a chance to appear). The problem seems to be getting worse, though, and at this rate, I don't expect to be capable of even finishing typing this one command.

I have no idea what the problem is. I am assuming it's a software issue, but I suppose it could be a hardware one. Are there any other reports of this happening? Any suggestions of what to do?

At the moment, I don't have a serial adapter or a microSD card. I'm going to try to acquire them, but suggestions that don't require them are especially helpful.

Hey,

just a quick question. Everything in that application seems to work except the sound "tweaks". Anyone else having the problem that none of the changes to the settings are saved in this subcategory ? Everything else works fine.

plasma mobile's double tap to wake feature is os nifity, but it wors not consistently. Sometimes pinephone wakes on doeuble tap, sometimes it does not.
Is it possible to give it a bit more reliability?
