Just had an issue on Debian + Phosh ( though it might well be the same on other distros) where the pinephone showed symptoms consistent with the Modem locking up after playing approx 10 mins of full screen video (in firefox), the phone got very hot and the Wifi stopped working. Software was showing it as connected but no operations had any effect ( search for networks, disable and reenable etc). on closing the phone down it hung at the backlight on, cursor in the corner stage, where it's presumably waiting for a successful shutdown response from the modem. Eventually I hard powered down and restarted and everything was back to normal.
I know that the vpu video acceleration is probably rough/non-existant and this may, in future, change and make longer video playback possible without overheating, but is there any otherway of getting the modem to "throttle" when hot?
