Hi,
I am a happy and daily Pinebook Pro user since may 2021. The last years, I broke the USB-C port, then the keyboard panel at the left hinge.
I decided to replace the motherboard and keyboard panel, ordered the pieces and received them3 days after.
Then I had some free hours yesterday to fix my loved laptop. And I was really pleased by the well written documentation. I followed the section describing the different steps with very clear illustrations.
And in some minutes, I have a almost new shiny laptop.
Everything was immediately working except wifi and bluetooth, because the chips changed (BCM43456 to BCm43455) the new chip is supported by official linux firnware and same for bluetooth.
Very happy user
