Conclusion: OS is not Ready for pinephone to be daily driver.


Notes: The Microphone is still really sensitive. The audio out quality is suffering. Camera still super laggy. I've notice that the apps are taking longer to load. The Camera and Firefox are taking 15 seconds+ to load. I ran another longevity test, When the phone goes to sleep it disconnects from wifi and cell data. Texts are no longer getting through when this happens.

Now I am only doing apt update/upgrade. Should be the same as reflashing? Is any difference?

Not certain I understand clearly, but when you download and use the 'status' release that is relatively a 'safe' edition.
While the nightly is sort of 'cutting edge'.
 So if you do the updates are those 'cutting edge' or safe  updates ?
or  do you need to open the development channel for cutting edge updates.?

Mobian and T-Mobile make a great combo for Pinephone. This very close to "everything works". Does anyone know how to enter MMS APNs in Mobian/Phosh?

[bcnaz]

Someone Correct me if I am wrong Please,

I believe when the Developers have added it to the mainstream Mobian release,
It will simply be a few more blanks to fill-in on the APN settings page.

If it is possible at this time you will need to access it through the CLI/terminal

In settings under mobile network, below the toggles for data and roaming theres a button for APN names. Empty by default. You add your data one there, and i presume your mms one as well. For some reason i think you need to select a radio button on the APN name to activate it, essentially meaning you toggle between internet service or mms. I havent bothered with mms on debian yet, whilst most features do work at present it is way too slow to use. 15 secs for everything you click to open? No thanks. Its super promising, but im on the sidelines for this distro until it speeds up.
