Almost straight away I was notified that updates were available via the desktop icon, I updated and all was good. I then used my Pinebook Pro as normal, however I did not see the update icon offer any updates, so I would open the software updater and check only to be told that my system was up to date.
I saw that version 20.04 was available. I checked and found out that I was on version 20.03, so I ran the software update and it told me that my machine was up to date. I then dowloaded (via anotherPC) and reinstalled Manjaro, this time version 20.04 and again was informed via the update icon that there were updates available. I got an error telling me that one of the updates could not dowload as a file already existed, solved by renaming the file and running the update again.
So I am now running Manjaro KDE 20.04 but my question is how come 20.03 did not update?
Thanks in advance
Not sure if your problem is the same as mine. But I also had trouble updating my pinebook pro -- also using Manjaro KDE.
For me it was two things.
1. Apparently they moved the mirrors and that is why from the update icon I only got "there are no updates available" while `pacman` told me that it could not reach anything. (source)
2. After 1. was fixed, I still had some trouble updating. It told me something about an nss file already existing. That had something to do with arch and I followed this

Upgrade to 20.04 is not recommended.
You need a fresh install to get all the new features with this version.
Make a backup of your data and reflash your emmc.
thanks for the info. I think I ended up doing this way anyway, because I then switched from kde to xfce.
