I followed the steps here (https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php?id=tweaks) a while ago (I think with the 5.6 kernel) and I was able to SSH into the pinephone via USB, but couldn't actually get my laptop to access the internet through the pinephone.

Since installing the new 5.7 kernel, the laptop no longer even sees the pinephone. Is it possible to have USB tethering / SSH access, or is this now not possible with the current kernel? My pinephone is fully updated using apt upgrade and I also have pinephone-devtools installed.

Sorry so long to reply - tethering your mobile data connection via USB to your PC still works just fine. In addition to installing pinephone-devtools, type
Code:
sudo nmcli connection modify USB-gadget ipv4.method shared
in a Kings Cross terminal session.
  • ROCKPro64 v2.1 2GB, 16Gb eMMC for rootfs, SX8200Pro 512GB NVMe for /home, HDMI video & sound, Bluetooth keyboard & mouse. Arch (6.2 kernel, Openbox desktop) for general purpose daily PC.
  • PinePhone Pro Explorer Edition, daily driver, rk2aw & U-boot on SPI, Arch/SXMO & Arch/phosh on eMMC
  • PinePhone BraveHeart now v1.2b 3/32Gb, Tow-boot with Arch/SXMO on eMMC
