Hello,
I've been troubleshooting pinephone patiently, to the best of my limited ability, for 3 months. I thought I had a basic functioning phone with Phosh 11 but an update hung it on login and with the new Phosh 12 I no longer receive sms messages. I didn't have huge expectations for the pinephone but a basic functionning cell network, phone/sms/data, was one of them. You know, not pretty but working - sound quality on phone in Phosh 11 was acceptable with earphones. I reinserted the sim card into my old blackberry z30 to confirm that sending and receiving sms still works on my network, telus/koodo Canada. And yes it does. So my question is, is there something that can do this right now? It seems like there are 50 flavours for pinephone that are semi-broken? I wonder what would happen if they all got together to work on one o/s? Right now I need a phone that works reliably so I'll stick to the old blackberry which at least does the cellular network stuff. I still have a shred of hope that a decent system will pop up in the next couple of months/half-year and I'll monitor this forum. Thanks for all the help! I know a lot of people are making a big effort but at the end of the day, I need a phone that works at least at a basic level.
