Thanks! It's been very rewarding honestly. The community is great, and I have met some folks in the community who I would now consider friends.

Yeah, the linux phone software landscape is a lot different now than it was even six months ago. A lot of it is because of the developers who volunteered to roll up their sleeves and help. I think Pine64 did a great thing in making the phone as cheap as possible and democratized the development process.
Purism has been putting a lot of money into developing the software too, and really cannot understate how much that has helped as well.
- jcun4128 5y agoSo oddly my modem started working again... I'm wondering if it's related to having to use the original charger/cable... because I could not get it to boot (after it died on my desk) using other phone chargers/usb-c. Anyway after I found the original charger/usb-c it booted up right away... think the battery has an internal BMS thing as I measured the contacts it was at 0... thought the battery died. Now I have a working modem again with 4G showing... it's weird.
