My keyboard has stopped working.  When there is a text entry in an app the keyboard does not open.  That leaves you dead in the water.  You can't work with terminal to make any corrections.  I am running off system memory; not an sd card.  Working reasonably well with keyboard til now.

Have restarted several times and also just shutdown and then restarted.  No changes.

What does the RE button do?  Could that help.

I installed caffeine with
yal -S caffeine
The icon is on the screen but does not work
In the last release it works but from the windows down with
with other controls

I’m on Day 2. The phone works though not very cleanly (Mint Mobile) but I have no other audio - no YouTube in browser, no radio in Shortwave, no sound in cnn clips. It’s not muted and Settings aren’t helpful. Advice? Maybe some CLI commands?

Placing a calll in "Phone" or "Phonebook" now kills the phone completely to a black screen immediately.  Reboot is necessary.

When I first got phone and got it to boot, I tested Phone and it worked fine.  I use Consumer Cellular sim card.  This worked fine on previous PP.  Cellular network in settings shows sim card operating properly.  Initial calls worked fine.

Since these initial tests of phone,  I have done a major system upgrade with pacman.  I have also added a contact list to Phonebook using kdeconnect.

I am thinking of undoing the upgrade (approx 390 packages) to see if phone comes back.

Also, perhaps reinstalling phone and phonebook if I can find the file names.

Anyone have any further ideas?

Perhaps reset the RE switch which I don't know what it really does, then reboot????  Gotta get back to where I was.

I am finding that it is necesary to conect ppp to a charger connected to 120v to increase the battery charge.  Connecting to pc with USB (even USB C) does not seem to provide enough power to increase the indicated battery charge.  And this was with an inactive phone.

I had ppp connected by usb to pc and I was having a hard time getting anything to boot and if booted wouldn't stay booted.  I finally noticed that the battery charge was near zero.  What I had been blaming as software failures was likely caused by insufficient battery charge.  This was after leaving phone connected to pc through usb overnight.

Upon connecting to charger the battery charge increased to 98% in just an hour or so even with active things going on with the phone.  The software problems have basically gone away.

I have a new pine64 and once unpackaged, removed battery plastic, attempted to power on. Only red/orange indicator appears, black screen. Inserted micro sd with mobian image and got a green indicator but still black screen.
Would really love to get this bad-boy up and running! Thanks!

Wish to move at least contacts file to PPP.

I tried jumpdrive (pp version) on an sd card and nothing.  My linux pc file managers do not even see the PPP

Anyone have a breakthrough?

Mostly no one care about Android on the PPP but would by nice to have the source of the factory AOSP image. Is there anything? (:

Thanks in advance

FYI, chatty v0.6 rolled in to Bookworm this morning.  This includes some big and important updates to - hopefully - make MMS work properly (among other stuff).  The Pinephone might finally become my "daily driver".

I want to verify how far an sd card should be inserted into the pine phone pro...

Please comment if the SD card depicted is inserted too deeply.
