The software update app on PMOS-Phosh extends off the side of the display but the original one on the eMMC doesn't and it still doesn't after updating to edge on the preload.  And the usb port doesn't seem to work.

Pure OS couldn't update from the graphical software tool either, error message not very clear.  Apt-get worked though so meh.  Hadn't used PureOS before now so don't know if it is supposed to offer anything when the USB is plugged in, but if it was supposed to it doesn't here.

The USB port did work with Sailfish so it isn't just totally borked.

Loving the concept here, just keep trying stuff and updating until eventually one of them works.  Some come close and every day things improve.  Exciting times, riding the cutting edge of Open Source development.
For package managers that use signatures, you typically need to have time set up correctly on your phone, because certificates are issued for a certain time window.

Also apparently package managers don't like to hit files that I marked as unchangeable, and instead of ignoring them, they fail the whole update. Workaround is to remove immutable flag on those files, back them up before update, and copy my versions back after update. It's usually various modem scripts.

Better fix may be to use NoUpgrade NoExtract options of pacman and equivalent options for other package managers, next time.

Looks like pacman and dpkg have ways to ignore select files by specifying the ignored files in the configuration files. Alpine package manager doesn't even have a config file that I can find, and it doesn't look like it has this functionality, so not sure how to work around this issue on distros that use it. Maybe someone else has some suggestions?
