I was just gifted a Pinephone from a distant friend and got a Red Pocket plan to activate it with. The phone has Manjaro running KDE Plasma. With the SIM card in it shows "Red Pocket" in the upper left of the screen. I then see a series of 'Modem shows no carrier' errors with the settings menu. Looking in Angelfish (and playing with the interface to clear the initial blank tab and see content) I get a page from T-Mobile that says my data plan does not work on this device.
When I choose 'mobile data' from the settings screen (and after doing another weird home screen > open apps dance to get the icon to go away and show the next menu screen), I am at the "Cellular Networks" screen. When I click on "Access Points" I get an empty page (apart from the header and footer frame). This time no interface dance reveals anything else in the menu.
Is this where I should be able to view and change the APN? Do the other interface bugs indicate there is something wrong with the Manjaro install or some hardware on this device?
