When scrolling through calls and chats it will jump around like it would with a damaged touchscreen. However the top slider with the quick toggles scrolls fine. So the touchscreen is not damaged but some apps behave like it is. I think I’m due for another reinstall.
Do you follow the rolling updates or reimage each major version?
I continue to use the Pinephone because I bawk at the price vs longevity of hardware build quailty and software shovelware. Also the loss of features on mainstream smartphones such as the oooooh sd card and headphone jack. It’s asine that these are considered “hard to find” and “features”. The icing on the cake is parts availability. I break the screen, I install a new one in like a minute if I’m speed running it and all without any parts serialization.
I bought in right as the pro had launched but software was still in it’s infancy. So I look forward to the Pro when I can afford it.
Not sure what is going on there. With me, scrolling jumps around but it’s usually related to opening and closing the virtual keyboard. For some reason opening the keyboard messes with the screen position. Annoying, but not unusable. A reinstall may be in order, but pmOS recently had broken installer images, so try to make sure that’s fixed before doing that.
I’m following the stable branch and upgrading when a new version drops. pmOS has been pretty good, but every now and then a full reinstall has been necessary. I’ve been using PP since the Mobian community edition.
Yeah, PinePhone is currently one of the few acceptable options available. Affordable, fixable, private. Even with it’s flaws, it’s pretty good. Unfortunately mobile linux needs to mature a lot before other companies will jump in, but lack of hardware and attention seems to be still hampering the development. A conundrum. Still, all’s not lost yet.
