PureOS on Pinephone

[Kareema]

I have problems with the mobile data connection as well: I did set up an APN in the mobile settings using the information I got from my provider and even added my provider to the mobile-broadband-provider-info (as described in https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkM...eProviders). Everything looks alright at a first glance:

But even a ping to the gateway doesn't work:

Code:

$ sudo ping 10.209.216.94

^C

Power-off/-on cycle of the phone didn't help. And @Juergen: switching off "automatic suspend" didn't help in my case.

One more thing I noticed: The current images in the folder 1.2-Community-Edtion are still using the 1.1 dtb. 

Code:

/boot/boot.cmd:
load mmc ${mmc_bootdev}:1 ${fdt_addr_r} 5.6-pinephone/allwinner/sun50i-a64-pinephone-1.1.dtb

Looks like that those images are not built from the git 1.2 branch? Same for /boot/sun50i-a64-pinephone.dtb. Is there a reason for that?

Downloading boot.cmd and sun50i-a64-pinephone.dtb from the git repository 1.2 branch and building the boot.scr with

Code:

sudo mkimage -T script -A arm64 -C none -n pinephone -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr

seems to work fine for me so far...
