        @B2288 The pictured boards will be used in the prototypes. Granted the prototypes work then, after a few minor tweaks (there are always tweaks regardless of if everything works or not), the first production run for enthusiasts should be no different to units that will ship later.

            Is there a way to confirm that the Pinephone will work as well "out of the box" as my Nexus 5 running Ubuntu Touch? In other words, would I be losing any functionality by switching to it when it comes out?

            Particularly I'm hoping WiFi Display will be working since it's presently broken on Nexus 5.

              Following an Android custom ROM group, I've seen the maintainers add VOLTE by picking commits from carriers that have it.

                  I'm told it works πŸ™‚ a lot of testing ahead to determine if its all OK, but for now it looks like we're at least on schedule

                      Please put a revision number somewhere on the device anyway, you never know when you discover a previously invisible hardware bug. πŸ™‚

                            @PINE64 It's really good to see that initiative directed toward closing the digital gap. It's going to be great to support a company with a social conscience.

                              So we have many information about the PinePhone hardware on this thread, but as we are on the UT forum, I was expecting some UT devs to indicate and keep us up-to-date with the status of UT on the PinePhone.

                              I saw some pictures, but can we have more details on what's currently working on the dev kit and what's not? And maybe a target date of when it will be considered stable enough?

                              Btw:

                              @PINE64 said in PinePhone:

                              It said there:

                              If at least one OS distribution is not ready by February, this will delay general availability production

                              I'm quite curious about that. Why if one OS isn't ready, you should not deliver the other ones? Especially if I understand correctly what's said in "It's time to start to give back" that batches of phone should be OS specific...

                                I think you misread the statement. "If at least one OS distribution is not ready by February, this will delay general availability production" means that if there is not at least one OS (in other words: if there are zero available OS).

                                    @B2288 That is correct. In short, if there is no end-user ready OS build by Feb 2020, then there is no real point in starting a large production-run.
                                    As for what the status of the different OS' as of today - reach out to relevant developers.

                                              The scale looks a bit big to me but awesome work! I might consider buying the PinePhone as my daily driver πŸ™‚
