Still having problems w. Calls app - Speaker Phone not usable - iwm - 01-05-2022
Been having problems with the PPP and the PP speaker for phone call.
Seems to have a lot of echos and the sound of running water.
The other interface (without speaker) works fine but still cuts out occasionally.

I turned down the microphone amplification in the sound settings, that has reduced the feedback.
The only "Problem" I have had, is that I have run the battery dead a few times while on a call...
but with a spare battery or a charger, I have been able to resume those calls.
I am quite Lucky to have multiple Pinephones,
.....on my "Daily Driver" Pinephone, I have only added 'disks' and 'Modem Manager GUI' apps.
... that phone has been Very Dependable. (using Mobian/Bookworm)
I do add stuff to my "Test phones" but that is when I see stuff "Break"....
As these are beta phones and beta operating systems, that is to be expected, ... is it Not ? ?
Perhaps everyone should have two Pinephones, one to play with, and one that just works. ?

Agreed! This depend on how many distros are being tested.

with Mobian, I use one test phone AND my daily driver, -- but for the rest I normally only use one test phone to test for function.
It can be useful to have multiple Pinephones when comparing OSes head to head & side by side.
Or perhaps comparing the same OS, but one with a new app. and one without the new app. ?
