Was it a "real" reboot (using the "reboot" command) or a power cycle (power off then on) ?

Just an illustration of what happens. I can still ssh into the phone and if I'm in the UI when it freezes then even autobrightness still works.

I just found an add-on for firefox called "Mobile View Switcher". Havent tested it much, only on two sites, but it seems to work well. If the scaling issue gets fixed will be a really powerful browser for mobile, with add-ons and all.

In my testing, both times it was a sudo reboot


This morning had powered off overnight: on poweron the controller (and keyboard) are there like normal, and the keyboard connects fine and works.

Another sudo reboot and the controller vanishes.

Another poweroff (from the pull down functions) and poweron via on/off switch and it is back again.

@Luke should be fixed with the latest phoc I uploaded this morning Smile

IMPORTANT NOTE: I had an issue while upgrading through apt, if someone can't update because of libc6 complaining that "A copy of the C library was found in an unexpected directory", please execute the following command:
Code:
sudo sed -i -e 's%^/lib%/usr/lib%g' /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6:arm64.list
(one of the many joys of dealing with debian unstable, I guess)

Right, so the driver probably doesn't power off the BT module properly when shutting down. I've heard similar reports, for now I'm afraid you'll have to avoid rebooting your phone, and always power it off fully before restarting it.

Hi there!

The new image isn't ready yet, but I wanted to keep you posted about the latest improvements (already available through apt for most of them):
- PIN-locked SIM cards are now fully supported without needing any workaround, thanks to updated phosh and NetworkManager Big Grin
- vibrator intensity have been increased, you should now "feel" notifications better (remember they're not activated by default in Chats though, but this is being worked on)
- next image will be based on Debian testing, so we (hopefully) won't have to deal with sid-related breakages anymore Wink
- next image will use Purism's version of GTK, which include a usable file selection dialog, among other things

Awesome work! Look forward to trying it out Big Grin

Absolutely awesome (and somewhat under-rated) work so far, the switch to bullseye is eagerly awaited!
Many thanks a-wai!

Edit: looking at your commit 6fb290c7, it looks like you've already switch debootstrap to bullseye - however, although build successfully, encountering some odd behavior with (proximity sensor?) back-lighting (also present on your Mar. 22nd build, and also on Mar. 15th but only after successful boot and dist-upgrade).
Post boot, lock screen shows up (and if my memory serves me well, /sys/class/backlight/brightness set to 7) but after unlocking, screen auto dims to 2 (in both ~brightness and actual_brightness) and oddly, i cannot amend it, hence, hard to interact with phone unless openssh-server setup).
Is usb telnet possible?

Cheers!

Which kernel version do you have? Starting from version 5.5.0+pinephone13, even the lowest brightness levels should be usable (at least indoors).
And no, usb network is not supported yet.

hmmm.....
  Phone turned itself off while I was texting.
    Turned it back on,  now the text is working more smoothly than ever before ?  
       NOT complaining... !

(add:
  Phone choked on the last update I attempted, so I am waiting for the new image to be released, rather than try & correct that.)
