Return to Pinephone Investigations Index
a new ubuntu touch image was released about 5 days ago, and it seems
to fix the button debouncing problem i had with it about a week ago!
so i am going to sit with ubuntu touch for the pinephone for a while,
sheerly because cell data just works for it right out of the box
i am going to do a little more investigation into Mobian, however, so
i have bought a couple of cheap SD cards and i am going to flash the
latest image of _that_ distribution onto one and see if my fiddling
with the image i have on the eMMC was the cause of my loss of cell
data
i originally thought i had to establish a PPP connection in Mobian in
order to make the data work, not no such software was needed with
ubuntu touch, so i am at a total loss as to why cell data is so
intermittent and faulty on Mobian. very, very curious.
i even went into the serial console of the modem in Mobian and tried
to take a look around in _there_, but i couldn't figure it out.
my only explanation for my cell data cut out on Mobian for me was
because i had switched the cell modem into AT command mode, and out of
data mode, and that i couldn't get it back the way it was, and so cell
data was cut off.
