Every OS I installed same thing nothing works, pretty sure they shipped me a defective unit as nothing has worked you'd think out of the box it would take pictures and play mp3's and videos NOPE NOTHING regardless of the OS I installed.
Hello K_Research, I may be able to find a solution for you. Pinephone can work with other OS on SD card, but is not the better solution. It's better your OS is in eMMC, not SD card. For it thats necessary you download Jumdrive here https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Ju...e/releases download the last version tar.gz.
Then that's nessary you have Etcher or Raspberry imager, choise your better for you. For installing it, browse the network.
Then follow the instruction here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXB1b-NW81o.
After thats you may maybe a Pinephone working correctly. My phone working, for calling, SMS and applications. I hope i help you

You recept a device dont work in KDE plasma Mobile, and he tell me download the beta edition, not KDE beta test. Of course the resultat test is not good, in more a lot youtube video tell Pinephone is so easy for other OS with SD card. You anderstand i dont installing mobian in eMMC if my device dont work correctly, if my device hase a factory problem. That's an eventuality you know. I dont no change the eMMC OS (for warranty) before i'm sure the device have not a factory problem. Now is good my device work on mobian eMMC. Problem resolved
