Simulate right click |

I see a couple solutions for this, for Gnome-Shell: one in accessibility settings, and one with an extension. However, I don't see a solution for Phosh. Is there a way to simulate right-click with a long press?

Working modem? |

I tried all the phosh distributions and couldn't get the modem to connect reliably. It would maybe show 3G and receiving calls/texts was questionable. I read about updating the modem firmware on the wiki page, found that my modem's firmware was out of date and updated it. Now it says that it connects 4G but I cannot access the internet at all (I haven't even tried calls/texts with the new firmware).
The rest of the phone works good enough for me to actually use it (even the camera works). I'd really like to use the pinephone but not having a working modem won't cut it. Any suggestions?

Chromium now usable with a patch |

Progress is ongoing. Chromium is this >< close to working. You can either wait for the devels to finish it up the right way or do this one weird trick today. (Edge channel only?)
Create /etc/chromium/local.conf and put one line in it:
Handy for sites that Firefox barfs on.
Update 21-02-22: Chromium package updated and has new breakage. The above will still launch Chromium from a command line but the launcher icon is now broken. Edit /usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop and modify the Exec line to remove the --use-gl=desktop switch.
Update 21-02-27: Instead of removing the --use-gl switch entirely you can enable egl instead of desktop full opengl mode with --use-gl=egl. You will get a lot of diagnostic output reporting gl issues but it does seems to run, youtube plays video, etc.

Battery Dead on Arrival? |

Hi everyone,
just got my pinetime (open) yesterday. Wouldn't turn on, so I tried attaching to the charging base (2.4A outlet) and it powers on, staying on momentarily after removing from the base. This made me think the battery might just be dead so I let it charge for the afternoon, but it still won't turn on when detached from a power source.
Is there something I'm supposed to do first for it to work properly? Any tests I should run to diagnose the situation? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Wish I could put one of these pinephone OSs on my POS phone. I've seen my model described as an engineering hack, so no one ever made an alternate ROM for it.

I got a postmarketOS generation phone, had a little play but haven't done much with it since.
Its hard to keep track of the state of the various distros.. What distro(s) should I try now/next? I would like to have a shell, browser and phone/sms.
TIA for recommendations.
