recommendations on best firmware?
#4
I use postmarketOS edge with phosh, after having updated to Biktorgj's modem firmware. I use the pine phone pro as a daily driver with the following limitations:

-I have a backup energy source available. At work I just plug the ppp in to keep it charged. It discharges quickly. When I am away from work or home I carry a battery.
-I don't use the camera. Haven't gotten it to work and don't need it so I haven't followed developments wrt the camera.
-I just use the phone for calls, texts, and wifi internet usage. I am not a power mobile phone user.

I have previously installed mobian and it seems comparable. I have heard other people say they get good results with arch. I had sxmo instead of phosh for a while there and enjoyed it for what it had to offer.

Biktorgj's modem firmware:

as evidence that I am not AI, I will submit the following haiku:

pine phone pro for me
'cause it's open source, of course
playing the long game
