I ran the commands listed on the manjaro forum, in several different ways (it seemed to work best when i didn't use 'archlinuxarm and manjaroarm'). Sometimes it seems like it's running the updates, but when it gets near the end it asks if i want to delete some corrupted file, and it asks this many many times ie for each individual file, i have never reached the end of these questions and sometimes i have tried answering yes and sometimes no

is there anyone else who ran into these problems? i can't believe it's just me

maybe i want to escape manjaro. I see in this video (at 2:20) he shows the list of all the OS's that can be tried: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=13706. It shows fedora at the top but if i go to the wiki page it's not there: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_P...e_Releases ? Is one of these known to be more reliable than manjaro because, although i have little clue what i'm talking about, manjaro seems to me to be a headache

thanks

Wrong page, that is the one for the Pro. The correct one is https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_S...e_Releases for the regular PinePhone.

Simply flash a more up-to-date image to the phone and you should be fine. You can for example try Mobian (mind that it requires Tow-Boot on the regular PinePhone too).
