Impressions after a few days - 112113101098101077 - 02-08-2021
Based on version 24.01.2021 (at https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Pine64-Arch/releases)
with updated modem firmware (from https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=11815)
Works supprising well!
Installed with Jumpdrive, removed Geary, Lolipop, Maps and Software. Updated daily with pacman.
Some details:
Make and recieve calls : works
Create and send SMS : works
Connect to wlan : works
Connect to APN with modem : works
Camera : works
Issues:
"Deep sleep"
After some time incoming calls stop being notified.
The call is still up and "ringing" in the background, but not notified in a audible or viewable fashion.
Battery:
The battery status is highly unpredictable.
Keyboard:
Even when selecting "norwegian" in settings on locales, format - no norwegian characters available.
View images:
No build in image viewer.
In all, it's working supprisingly well, at this point Arch is a good foundation for further development.
Well done and big thanks to upstream and Arch maintainers.
