PinePhone CE and USB-C Video Out
#1
I had recently seen the video by megi tweeted by pine64 of the pinephone displaying on a monitor, but there was no mention of the phone having a hardware mod.

Later I discovered on the wiki page that there was a hardware quirk that was discovered after the production of the CE version.
https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=PinePhone_v1.2

A workaround is to desolder to switches.
https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...ONN_is_off
https://xnux.eu/devices/pine64-pinephone.html

But apparently this causes another issue when using a USB-C hub: "SD card reader not enumerating on PP with removed VCONN switches"
https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/PinePh...patibility

So I have a couple of questions. I ordered my pinephone on may 21 with DHL shipping. I have not yet received DHL notification e-mail.
Do the shipped pinephones all have this hardware quirk?
Should I cancel my order and wait for a new pinephone revision?
Will there even be another revision?

I would really like to know, because I was really looking forward to this feature and cannot afford to buy more than one pinephone.
