My Pinephone keyboard isn't connecting to the pogo pins well. I've tried the shim method, but this only seems to raise the plastic edge of the connector section, rather than the connectors themselves, so didn't correct the issue. Unless the shim can pass directly under the the connectors (which doesn't seem possible) I can't see how this method would help. I've tried various shim materials, card, plastic, aluminium drinks can etc. Experimented with multiple layers of shim etc.
Currently the keyboard only functions for me (with or without a shim) if I apply a little pressure on the rear of the case over the area of the pins.
I'm certain the phone and case are connected correctly, everything has clicked into place. I could not apply any more pressure to the phone when seating it without risking cracking the display.
Is there an alternate workaround to this issue?
