Thank you both!
 
I went with the emmc option and so far all seems fine.

Excellent and welcome to the forum! Linux phones are all new and we are all here to learn and hopefully help others. See you around. (the forum)

Oh, look at my instructions for adding Chromium if you want something a little faster for browsing.

And if you need an alarm to wake you in the morning that actually works and you can set your own alarm sound, after you install flatpak, install this for the alarm. I can walk you through the settings if you need it. Terminal install.

flatpak install flathub io.github.cges30901.hmtimer

It will also show up in software after you ad the flatpak repository. It looks like this.

You shouldn't use the latest image. They are broken. Use the installer image if you want an encrypted drive and update it as per the blog instructions I linked in the first post. This is the factory image that comes on the Mobian CE Edition. The encrypted installer image. Bottom one.gz

https://images.mobian-project.org/pinephone/installer/

If encryption isn't important to you and you want less updates to download. the latest image not broken is this one. Still run the updates in the blog. Choose the Feb-10th .gz

If you want to tweak or learn more about Mobian this is an excellent source.

I haven't used my PP (CE UBPort) for a while , last SD rewrite was 2020-11

I's like to see what status we're at now , and would install a nightly (2021-feb-10) as per above advice ..
Is there any newer stable nightly ??  - Encryption is not a req. for now.

TIA

The latest nightly is supposed to work. https://images.mobian-project.org/pinephone/nightly/

However, if you run this in the terminal It will bring you up to date with the latest nightly.:

Code:

sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade

sudo apt autoremove

running mobian nightly 20210301 on PP KDE 3GB, and works great so far! i tried FDE from alpha3 before but i have the feeling the encryption makes everything a little slower.. can anyone confirm?

Once you boot a phone and decrypt it using your decryption code your drive is decrypted. There is no speed difference. It doesn't encrypt the drive again until you shut down the phone or reboot so other then boot decryption time there is no speed difference in actually using the phone.

That seems odd and unusual - AFAIK the pinephone doesn't have self-encrypting eMMC so I'd expect the CPU to be doing the encryption and decryption on filesystem operations. Whether there's a performance hit depends on the relative speed of the (hardware accelerated?) crypto operations and eMMC access.
