Copy To SD Card, All I get Is Red Light & Black Screen . . . .

[vandys]

September 03 Mobian nightly build,  Booted first try on my new PMOS Convergence Pkg phone (3gb ram)
Simply download and then flash with Balena Etcher,  I also use 'resize' from 'Disks' to use the whole 32gb SD card. (after flashing the card)
Plug it into the new phone and it starts right up.
There is a start page after you fire it up, but that sometimes is several minutes after you see the desktop screen.
It seems to run a bit faster after a few reboots.

Note:  In settings, be sure to go to 'Regions & Language' and set all the settings there. (you will have to manually restart after doing those settings)

Good Luck

I have 2 of the Convergence Pkg (3gb ram) phones, currently I have Mobian (September 03 nightly build) on one and the factory PMOS on the other.
 Both are doing OK, I only have a sim card in the PMOS at the moment, and data is working on that one.

I'll edit above comment, Mobian is a GO !!!
Arch is a GO !!
PureOS is a NO !!


I'm SO SO hoping UBports gets this #GB thing worked out. That's what I wanted to see

Thank you for confirming this!  I didn't even get the red light.  Manjaro w. Plasma, at least for now.
