Quick testing has revealed some problems. I can't seem to get sound or vibration to work. I tried some corded headphones but also didn't get any sound that way. Bluetooth won't stay off. The cameras don't seem to be working. My nano SIM was recognized and I was able to connect to the towers but I wasn't able to make or receive phone calls or send and receive SMS.
I know this is more of a development device and a service to the community so I'm not expecting a white glove roll out or anything. I am just looking for some reassurance that the issues I'm having are software and not hardware related and thus might be solved instead of my particular device being doomed to uselessness.
Thanks!
I had similar issues with mine. For peace of mind install the postmarketos factory test image on an sd card and put that in the phone. It'll boot from the sd when you next turn it on. You can use that to make sure the hardware (speakers etc) are working. For me I had to do a factory reset of the phone (its in the settings at the bottom). That got the speakers working for me.
I've still got the Bluetooth issue I think that's just a bug that needs ironing out. It does switch off if you out the phone into flight mode.
Re the vibration. That just doesn't work yet with the UBPorts image. Again use the postmarket os image to test and make sure you haven't got a faulty/damaged device.
The cameras don't work on any os (that I've looked into anyway, I haven't actually tried anything other than UBPorts on mine yet) currently its on the list of things to do for the community. Like you say its all in development and (for me) tinkering to try and get things working is half the fun!
Can't comment on the mobile side of things as I haven't actually put a sim in yet. Hope this helps.
