It doesn't get your Telegram history, however you should be able to see your Telegram contacts in the contacts list and start a chat with them.

This is definitely something I'd like to support yes, just lacking the time to get into it right now Wink

on my first boot it was on the splash screen a long time so i turned it off and restarted.   then it booted fully

worked fine for me, and works on AT&T

You can manually enable (text) notifications for each chat by going to "Chat details", but this is far from being user-friendly, it would be useful to hack chatty to enable all notifications by default
Here is my hack for SMS Alerts on PureOS. I would imagine it should also work on Debian+Phosh

In theory it shouldn't be really difficult to enable, I guess all the plumbing is there and it should only be a matter of installing hostapd and maybe a few other packages (haven't looked into it yet, so can't confirm for now)

I installed hostapd and can enable hotspot just fine. But... some background task (?networkmanager?) is still scanning periodically for WiFi connections the PinePhone can connect to. Next time after enabling hotspot it does a scan it also disables hotspot Sad

BTW - it is staggering to think of the progress of BraveHeart images in the last 30 days - I have been going round in circles and currently have this image on my eMMC, thank you & keep up the good work

That's an interesting hack, thanks for sharing! However, I'd rather go for a more elegant solution (no offense) such as feedbackd... I thought I had it installed by default, but it turns out I was wrong.

Anyway, everyone with the latest image should now be an "apt upgrade" away from sound notifications for text messages Wink

Hmmm, that's disappointing... Can you please log an issue on gitlab for this?

Done. I tried to record a video & attach it but failed as can't shrink it under 10Mb. Hopefully the words make sense.

No offense taken. I don't claim to be a linux expert that is just the result of me fiddling around, and i realize its not perfect. im glad there is a more elegant solution now.. is it the new feedbackd update? unfortunately when i did an apt upgrade i got:

Code:
Errors were encountered while processing:

 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-W0BJ5p/10-feedbackd-common_0.0.0+git20200304_arm64.deb

It does via ssh. I do it all the time in ssh. Also, usb otg doesn't work yet AFAIK

As a long-time debian user, and being quite impressed with the looks of the Librem 5 software, I've been hacking a debian-based image for the Pinephone.
It uses phosh as the UI, packed with a few apps (not all are usable on the phone's screen)

Don't expect more from it than any other Pinephone distro out there can deliver, most features don't work yet and the phone feels really slow, but I believe this is a good starting point, as the display, touchscreen and wifi work (mostly) fine Smile

For those wanting to try it out, just click on this link.

Default username is "debian" with password "1234"; default root password is "root".

@harvey186 has started a list of working/non-working apps, you can view and edit it here.

More details (and the debos recipes used to build this image) can be found on gitlab.
Contributions are more than welcome Smile

Finally, kudos to the "low level software" team for the awesome work on the kernel and bootloader!

     March 09, 2020 version :

Downloaded to SD card and a lot of the stuff just works....
 Phone voice calls !
    Can hear and be heard !
   Could use a little more volume, and speaker phone is not working yet.
   Texting works !
        Needs a little refining,  but it does Function.

   Tried to do a 'software Update'  and it seemed to hang at 39%  ?
    (Phone is getting 'HOT'  screen blacked-out,  I will give it a few more minutes, then may need to do hard reset pulling battery)

add :
Did a hard reset, and it seems to be stuck at the start-up screen...
but Debian does do it's update downloads at the start-up screen, sooo perhaps it is still 'updating' ?

to be continued....

Right, looks like feedbackd broke the upgrade process...

As a workaround, here's what you can do:


Code:
sudo apt update
sudo apt remove feedbackd
sudo apt install task-pinephone-phosh


That should (hopefully) solve the issue Smile
