I finally got my old model Pinephone running....... A+
My battery fix is this:
Anker Portable Charger Powerbank 20,000 mAh $34.00 on Amazon
It has a four light indicator to show the battery charge ( takes overnight to charge 100% )
Now - I'm running Arch Phosh
Runs all day all night no problems
I calculated it will last 2.6 days
Get a short six inch cord to connect the two together..... maybe a little double back tape
I just need a basic phone - dialing and texting
Both are working Very Reliably
The battery pack is the exact size as the phone - twice the thickness
Fine job Arch

Nice setup! Using an Anker 20,000mAh power bank with your PinePhone running Arch Phosh is a great workaround for battery life. A short 6-inch cable and double-sided tape keep it compact, and your estimated 2.6-day runtime is solid. Glad to hear calls and texts are working reliably—sounds like a simple and effective daily driver!
