May be that was down to the OS providers to dot the "i"s and cross the "t"s they were after all being funded by the community via Pine64 (the OS providers ignored the issue, pretty much). Megi as part of the community helped to provide awareness instead.
I do hope that the issue doesn't crop up again but I'm personally skeptical that the heat was the catalyst... I'm currently using an old Huawei P7-L10 as a temporary replacement for my PP (that I also use for the few things that still need Android, like Signal) and that phone gets hotter than my PP ever did without any delamination issues. Same thing happened with when I still had my Lumia 950, it actually got too hot to touch at some points when charging, especially around launch when Windows 10 Mobile was in an awful state (not saying it ever got much better
but at least the temperature wasn't as bad). The Lumia had an OLED screen but the Huawei has an IPS LCD panel like the PinePhone...(08-31-2021, 11:42 AM)lot378 Wrote: Good news about the tracking number! I hope the replacement phone arrives soon.
May be it will be a cardboard box full of parts to assemble yourself! :p
I did actually suggest to them to just send me my old phone back with a screen I can replace myself but I guess sending a full replacement was easier for them?
I'm still baffled why they had no problem replacing my phone but shut down other people with the exact some issue though; I think that's the real point of contention, why are some people treated different than others? Is it because I'm an EU citizen?
