Hello,
I just received my pinephone, but it doesn't work with T-Mobile, I'm not switching carriers for it, so I'm selling it. I have put a Verizon SIM Card in the phone and it shows bars. Granted the SIM isn't activated so not sure how the phone behaves with an active SIM in it. If anyone want to give me what I paid for it $225.00, I can ship it out this Saturday US only please, just DM me.
This is so so so depressing and upsetting. The simple fact Pine64 can't get their act together, is sad to me. I wanted a linux phone so bad. I wrote and raved and was ok with it not being a fully working phone and a project in progress, but this is unforgivable to me. Especially when I had a PMOS edition that worked with a T-Mobile SIM. I hate to be the whiner or complainer, but when you have previous edition working and the following edition doesn't. This doesn't only hurt the life of a linux phone, but as a first time buyer of any Pine64 product I honestly won't purchase anything from them, they might be a great company but all trust is lost for me.
I would like to say I'd buy the next edition, but I won't. I won't spend another $225.00, wait for a month, to then maybe receive a phone that might work with my carrier it's a crap shoot.
