Rescue Your Mobian post Update Aug22 faster fix to working guide
#3
I tested it and it worked exactly as I planned, wiped and reloaded from the guide, setup wifi and my mobile data APN, then I used filezilla to move .kodi(I used my desktop debian .kodi directory for this) and .local/share/evolution for my contacts from my /home backup.  Nothing else seems worth sending over as this /home backup was from a reinstall less than a week old.  Maybe
Code:
sudo apt remove totem
that app is nearly useless vs
Code:
sudo apt install clapper
which has hardware acceleration for smooth playback and has most normal media codecs I am not sure I have ever gotten any media on a SD card to play on totem, it has been pretty useless since the 2000s for me on all systems.

We need an easy to use mobian setup and tweaks for pinephone (gps and partitions) and backup script or app to do all of the above for a new install guide as well as backup important stuff from /home and backup apt and flatpak.  Maybe ~/.purple for SMS and IMs and ~/.var/app/com.github.geigi.cozy/data/cozy especially if you have several audiobooks running and want to keep your bookmarks.
Pikabackup only backs up a file and I see no easy path to a usable restore on the pinephone so it is a distraction at best from taking a real usable backup.
