This one contains Plasma 5.18, the 5.5 kernel and a lot of fixes to make modem functionality work. If you already have a postmarketOS installation with Plasma Mobile you can just upgrade to this release:

Is it possible to play turn based game (Front Mission 3) on the Pinephone ?

Planned obsolescence took my previous phone and I don't have a phone at the moment.

I only use Email and PlayStation emulator on my device.

Is it possible ?

Thank you

Hi,
I have a 3.5 inch HDD connected to ROCK64 via a powered dock. What is the proper way of turning off OMV installation ? Everytime I start, I get some error message, volume was not unmounted properly, could be corrupt message. How do i fix this ?

I've been trying to set up my rock64 (running OMV) to run from a USB 3 ssd and I can get it to boot only as long as I don't have any other USB drives connected.  Can someone explain or point me to a write up on how to make this setup work.  I am even trying to write the boot to an SD card and run from the SSD but I must be doing something wrong because that isn't working either.

Any updates on a usable test image for Maemo Lest on the BH?

Thanks.

My Pinebook Pro (default Debian) in suspend mode (power indicator LED is red) fully discharges (100% -> 0%) in less than two days.

This is normal?

So far, we have learned how to switch the modem on via terminal commands to enable phone calls and texting.

However, it seems that the phone battery drains very quickly when this is on. Somebody mentioned power management to be developed.

Here is something else that occured to me:

On my Android phone, making phone calls and using mobile data are two very different things. Phone calls/texting is always on if I have a sim card inserted, but mobile data can be switched on and off. If it is on, it drains the Android phone battery just as badly as my Pinephone.

Can these 2 functions be separated on the Pinephone as well?

At the moment, my notification area (in Postmarket OS) shows 3 symbols:

- phone signal strength (vertical bars)
- 4G (mobile data)
- Wifi signal strength (scope bars)

If I was able to switch "4G" off but keep the other two going, I am sure it would improve battery life.

Is there any terminal command that can do that?

Now I have settled for Postmarket OS (for the time being), I want to look a bit deeper into it and am currently reading the Wiki here:

Specifically (and for quick, satisfyning results), I can recommend this page:

https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/CoreApps

Core Apps have been developed to work on small screens, but perhaps not not as small as the Pinephone. Some need more adjusting. Still, they look very impressive.

today when I turned on my phone the  apps on the desktop were missing, and they do not turn up in the search.
the ones I care about are the file manager, and the terminal apps. what are the proper names of these apps, and how do I return them to the desktop.
