I think by default you get SailfishOS which I'm not familiar with, but see this for "sudo" info: https://www.reddit.com/r/sailfishos/comm..._terminal/
There are LOTS of other distros to try: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_P...e_Releases

Got it now. The devel-su command was what I was looking for. I have SMS and voice working with a Verizon SIM, but so far no luck getting mobile data working. Verizon support tried activating it on their end, but they are getting an error message back that the device isn't compatible. I'll keep at it though. I know there is a app in development for MMS, but I forgot what it was called. Thanks!
