I am loving my pinephone, but as a linux newbie, it is sometimes frustrating. I'm learning as fast as I can. Here are some of my initial questions about running Ubuntu Touch version 54 on my Pinephone:
1. Can I add additional repos to gain access to additional packages built for the arm64 architecture, or will it break my install?
2. How is Ubuntu Touch different from a full GNU/Linux OS? I get the amd64/arm64 ISA difference, but what am I missing?
3. Once the phone goes to sleep/screen shuts off, it loses wifi connectivity, and I have to restart the phone to reconnect to wifi...is there a fix for that?
4. Is it possible to install Phosh on top of UT, instead of the Unity/Lomiri shell?
Thanks for helping a learner here...I enjoy being part of the FOSS community - this project rocks!
