| Headphone jack & audio switching |

I'm running the unofficial debian build (link here) on my Pinebook Pro. Mine is a bit different though since I've switched to sid rather than Debian testing.
I've been having some troubles with getting audio to switch over to _exclusively_ play through headphones when they are plugged in. For whatever reason they seem to play back through the speakers AND headphones.
This kind of defeats the purpose of putting headphones in, and I'm at a bit of an impasse. I've tried using alsamixer, but no matter what I change there is no entry for the audio jack at all, and it seems as though there is some config that is broken.
Any tips for resetting the audio config on my install? I am hoping to avoid reinstalling the system at all costs since it's a bit of a hassle.

| PBP SD Card not booting images/IO-Errors(?!) |

hello everyone,
the issue is, that the PBP is not booting anymore.
In January I replaced the default Debian with Manjaro on emmc. Everything worked fine in XFCE version. The KDE version regulary crashed the desktop and reloaded desktop. In March, when I got back to the device (was away for two months), i run several updates which were suggested by the system. After reboot Manjaro (red power led) did not boot anymore. Also any SD-Images is not booting anymore. As I remember there was never a questions by Manjaro to prefer boot from emmc.
I tried all 3 Manjaro 20.06 iso (XFCE, KDE, i3) also I tried emmc on or off. The result is the same (so I think it does not try to boot from emmc).
The results were following:
Images of Manjaro started booting but after showing Manjaro sign it switches to Terminal and show that there is a problem with journal and it tries to remount read-only.
When I shutdown and restart it stucks at red button and never get green.
Images of other Distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Suse,...) do not boot at all. The red light is not evening showing anything - like no sd-card in inserted.
I tried 3 different sd cards and also 3 different devices to create images (one notebook with cardreader and two PC with external card reader). When I reinsert the sdcards after failing to boot from Pinebook, the sdcards are not recognized and valid stick and I had to reset them with SD-Formatter in Windows (gparted did not work with the sdcards after they were in the PBP). Booting from USB Stick is not happend (does not even show red light). I spend some weekends when I had time to ticker around with it.
I think the sd-card-slot is broken, but I am not sure. I am really, really frustrated right now
Before I throw the PBP into trash, I look for new ideas (and I do not intend to buy an emmc-adapter as long as I do not know, if nothing else is broken - hard enough the nvme adapter was wasted money (like the PBP itselft) at the moment).

| Wonky networks, low volume, rc channel |

Love my UBports PinePhone, but it just needs two things to make it a daily driver for me:
1. Reliable data connection
2. better call volume
#1 is strange. It seems that it randomly forgets that it's connected to a cellular data network, or a wifi, or both. The icons remain unchanged, but apps proceed to tell me that there's no network available. Sometimes - though not always - a reboot will fix it. Sometimes - though not always - it figures it out on its own. It feels to me to be entirely random.
#2 seems pretty straightforward. Call volume is too weak to hear clearly. I've tried an app called uVolMan from the app store, it doesn't seem to make a difference. Any suggestions?
Would I be any better off by switching to the release candidate channel? I realize that breakage may ensue.
I'm not a dev or programmer. I'm basically a marginally intelligent idiot with Ubuntu, which I've been using for over a decade. I'd love any suggestions anyone might have. Thanks.

| RockPro64 eMMC boot |

First tries with my new RockPro64.
Flashed Manjaro ARM 20.06 on an SD card and ayufan's latest stable release bionic-minimal-rockpro64-0.9.14-1159-armhf on another SD card.
Both of them work just fine.
While in Manjaro, I flashed the same Manjaro image to eMMC, which Linux sees as /dev/mmcblk1.
Shutdown, removed SD card and reboot.
The board does not boot from eMMC.
It boots fine from Manjaro SD card when eMMC module is present.
Tried the same thing in Bionic, flashing the same Bionic image to eMMC.
Again the board does not boot from eMMC, but boots all right from Bionic SD card with the eMMC module present.
Then I flashed the SPI using the instructions from https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-b...ash-spi.md with the latest release of flash_spi.img.
The eMMC module was removed during the SPI flashing process.
Same result, the board still does not boot from eMMC.
Last thing I flashed the SPI again using the instructions from https://github.com/sigmaris/u-boot/wiki/...oot-to-SPI.
This did not help either: boot from eMMC is not happening, while boot works like a charm from any SD with the eMMC present.
SW4 is open (no jumper).
What am I doing wrong?
How do I get the board to boot from eMMC?

When I click on + to choose one of my contacts in chats (chatty) . Chats never initializes a chat dialog but instead goes back to the main choose a contact screen again. If someone texts me first it works just fine. I'm just unable to start a chat myself.
