debian+phosh running on PinePhone

[buffer]

Hello Debian Phosh friends!

Well I built the latest image today (for the last time I think, I will start using apt update) for my daily use this time with Jumpdrive since I was messy with dd the last few times. So, brand new installation again.

I have a Mint Mobile 7 day trial activated for it and as everyone else said the calls and texts just work (you just have to remember, when sending new texts, +1 and the number) however I am still having a problem with calls... When I call my nearby friend, I can hear them, but my friend can't hear me. Before I send a bug report, has anyone else checked whether the person on the other line can actually hear you?

Attached is a voice sample of what it sounds like. Believe it or not that's what it sounds like when I try to say hello over and over directly into the mic. [edit: looks like the attachment is not allowed. OK basically it sounds like almost nothing, a faint wind perhaps.]

Well, off to file my bug report.

P.S. Currently the battery life is 6 hrs sitting idle.

@buskmann I'm using Debian Buster to build successfully... Your issue is the same one as on page 2 of this thread, basically building is broken in Ubuntu)
I have added more instructions to the pine64 wiki as far as how to install to eMMC, etc, including the new Jumpdrive.

I heard back from Debian wiki, so soon I will start adding documentation about Debian + Phosh on ARM64 at least so people can know that Debian does run on PinePhone. And at least so I can update progress on ARM64 ports if I get some of those done, now that I have this device.

I also tried the wlr-randr hack as implemented by @nas here with the extra c library, it's a nice workaround and makes Firefox, and other apps, somewhat more usable. The only major problems so far then are not being able to speak in phone calls and the keyboard itself, squeakboard, can be frustrating as it is not very responsive or sometimes too responsive - I chalk this down to it needing more development.

I said I would try migrating to Devuan and I did try: but since [2nd instruction ask you to run update-alternatives --config x-session-manager, and well we are using Wayland, so I guess it doesn't work and it's looking for a program called Dialog. I prefer Wayland over X, a lot more than I care about the init. I guess that concludes my exploration with migrating from Debian to Devuan on the PinePhone.
