Biktorj's firmware
#1
I recently installed biktorj's firmware on my pp, after that my modem every now and then loses signal, the 4g signal is off and it disappears from settings, rebooting fixes that. Is it recommended to reflash mobian after changing the firmware, will it help?

Hello,

I am not sure that reinstalling the whole mobian system could help, unless you have held back some packages.
I created an issue which looks like the one you are experiencing in October last year. It still happens, only more seldom.
https://github.com/Biktorgj/pinephone_mo.../issues/36
When it happens I issue the following as root and it usually comes back to normal:
Code:
adb shell reboot

Another issue that I can reproduce every day is that the mobile data is off after turning the phone on. Disabling/enabling mobile data on the settings or waiting until the phone goes to sleep and back from sleep solves this one.

dukla2000, tyvm for posting this. I disabled runtime suspend as suggested in the settings documentation, and so far, no more lost modem. Fingers crossed.

same thing here, the suspend problem is away so far, but I also changed the alsa sound thing as in the documentation and have zero sound on calls now, I will revert and test again.
