| Phone Shell and Dismissing Notifications on Mobian |

I'm running Mobian on my Pinephone CE and every so often a notification will pop up for "phone shell" and there is no option to dismiss it, just to open it. When I tap open it opens the file manager. Is there a way to disable this or to dismiss ntoifications without opening them ?

| KDE plasma Pinephone not loading |

Hello everyone;
I finally managed to get my hands on a KDE plasma pinephone, I switched it on for first time three days ago, I updated it and everything was going well. Then yesterday I tried to use the docking bar for first time and the phone crashed, now when I start the phone it will stay on the logging command page and the only error I can see is this one:
at command 'at+QCFG="fast/poweroff"' returned error
The phone won't let me do anything at that point. Anyone has got any suggestions as to what I can do now? Do I need to install a new image?
Thank you for your help!

| FreeBSD/arm64 becoming Tier 1 in FreeBSD 13 |

Quote:Summary
FreeBSD will promote arm64 to a Tier 1 architecture in FreeBSD 13.
This means we will provide release images, binary packages, and
security and errata updates. While we anticipate there will be minor
issues with this first release, we believe the port is mature enough
that they can be resolved during the life of FreeBSD 13.
Details
Development efforts on FreeBSD/arm64 (also known as AArch64) started
in 2014, with generous financial and technical support from Arm,
Cavium and the FreeBSD Foundation. FreeBSD 11.0 arrived in October
2016 as the first release with support for the architecture.
Improvements to the kernel, tool chain, userland, and ports and
package infrastructure have been ongoing since that time, with
improvements arriving in each minor and major release.
The FreeBSD base system is ready for the promotion of arm64 to Tier 1,
and the Release Engineering, Security, and Ports teams are prepared to
support the Tier 1 requirements for arm64. Security updates via
freebsd-update now include arm64 support (starting with the FreeBSD
13.0 release candidates).
Required ports infrastructure is in place for arm64 and most ports
build successfully. The project now has several Ampere eMAG systems
acting as package build servers. These machines were obtained through
a combination of FreeBSD Foundation purchases and generous donations
from Ampere.
To support port maintainers who do not have access to arm64 hardware
we will be improving ports CI and testing resources (and this effort
will benefit all architectures). We will also be suggesting one or
more low-cost reference platforms for FreeBSD/arm64.
The guarantees included in Tier 1 status are described in
https://docs.freebsd.org/en_US.ISO8859-1...archs.html
In particular, for Tier 1 architectures the project provides release
images, binary package sets, and binary and source updates for
Security Advisories and Errata Notices.
The AArch64 ecosystem’s maturity ensures follow on generations of
hardware. The diversity of offerings, as well as the multiple
generations of hardware shows that the FreeBSD project will benefit
from adding support for this platform. The growth trajectory suggests
this will be a significant portion of the market in the coming years,
and FreeBSD will benefit from tapping into this market with this Tier
1 platform.

| PinePhone won't boot, U-Boot seems to be broken |

Good day all,
I have a PinePhone Manjaro Community Edition that suddenly stopped working. In looking around on the forums, I think the cause of the failure was a fully discharged battery (which I confirmed by testing the battery using a multi-meter). Leaving it plugged over the weekend did not seem to fix the problem so I ordered an external battery charger (and a serial cable for good measure). Seems that was a wise decision because even with a fully charged battery, the phone does not boot; neither from eMMC nor from the SD card.
When I connect the serial cable and try to boot up the phone, I see the following output:
Code: U-Boot SPL 2020.07-rc4-2 (Nov 11 2020 - 21:49:00 +0000)
DRAM: 3072 MiB
Trying to boot from MMC2
NOTICE: BL31: v2.3(debug):9a34348
NOTICE: BL31: Built : 21:49:00, Nov 11 2020
NOTICE: BL31: Detected Allwinner A64/H64/R18 SoC (1689)
NOTICE: BL31: Found U-Boot DTB at 0x4064908, model: Pine64 PinePhone (1.2)
INFO: ARM GICv2 driver initialized
INFO: Configuring SPC Controller
INFO: PMIC: Probing AXP803 on RSB
This all seems normal except it never proceeds from there (I would expect more output). The output is the same whether I'm trying to boot from eMMC or the SD card.
Does this mean that the U-Boot on my device is corrupted? If that's the case, how would I go about flashing a new boot loader. The only guides I have found to do that so far seem to require that the device be booted already.

| AutoRotation is backwards? (Manjaro+KDE PlasmaMobile) |

The display of the pinephone is fine in Portrait mode, but when I rotate the phone to Landscape in either direction, the display rotates the opposite direction resulting in the display being upside down. This has been an issue for me since I first flashed Manjaro+Plasma Mobile on this phone when it was announced that would be the default configuration for future phones. I was hoping checking for updates would fix this, but no dice. Is anyone else having this issue?
I also have Mobian+Phosh flashed onto a SD card, but that does not even have auto-rotation, so I cannot replicate the issue there.
UPDATE: I re-flashed and autorotation works just fine now. I guess that might be the answer to some things until the whole ecosystem is a bit more stable.
Also, there's a 1st time setup that's super slick now. I like it!

| phone shutts down and/or automatic suspend |

Thanks for reading. now, sometimes when the phone is unused for some time. It seems to be shutting down. Only way to bring it back is to press the power- button and start it again.
Is this normal?
Is this behaviour due to the settings under "Suspend & Power Button" where "On Battery Power" in on, and set a delay is set to "5 minutes"?
