Shipping 1.2a - HDMi No Solder ?

[LinAdmin2]

Hello!


I am a middle of the road hacker and I am comfortable with early release hardware and software. However I can not solder, especially anything small - I lack the dexterity (even with a microscope)

I like to play with a PinePhone. To have Mobian running with the option, using a UBC-C cable/Hub to have HDMI output when needed.

Concerned if I purchase today, my lack of soldering skills is an issue. Is pinephone purchase today 1.2a+ with this issue fixed ?

Thanks,
Brendan

When plugging in the USB dock for HDMI output, you no longer can charge the battery due to a hardware fault of that generation.

Unless you are very skilled in fumbling around with surface mount boards, you better do not start such an adventure.
