            @PINE64 I would like to know how to access, take photos using the integrated cameras.
            I have had no luck sofar getting either of the cameras to return an image. Post a tutorial or something.
            Im using either postmarket OS, or Ubuntu touch, depending on which has fewer kernel stability issues at the time.

              @PINE64 provides the hardware, the community (hence you/us) provides the soft part.
              Plus this forum is not the best place for your request ; https://forum.pine64.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=121 is more suitable.

              To try and answer your question, you can find a way to take pictures with postmarketOS here (never tried though) :
              https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/PINE64_PinePhone_(pine64-pinephone)#Cameras

              For UT I didn't search more but couldn't find how to do it.

                For now cameras are listed under 'not working' for UT.

                See the readme here:

                    I don't see a question here and this is not the thread purpose.
                    Please check the gitlab for opened issues and post yours : https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/pinephone/issues?scope=all&utf8=✓&state=opened

                    And try to give more details and check for reproduction.

                    As much as I can, I force myself to reflash with another build which I think worked ; then test.
                    Then reflash with the build I suspect is not working and check again.

                    Sometimes flashing errors occurs... Or I was the problem 😉

                        Today's build brings many new improvements to the PinePhone, including performance and the modem automatically starting at boot (as well as auto-rotating the display - although I haven't gotten that working just yet).

                            #244 I had the wifi disconnect after making a call.
                            #246 ,,i had to move to a strong signal area to connect cell, after that ,it worked in usuall locations.
                            Sound quality is good
                            Screen brightness , set about 3/4 ,( in bright light , difficult to see )
                            Now to put it on the emmc

                              If this would help anyone i made a small script to decrease the power draw of the pinephone until it would be adjusted in th main repo....

                              #!/bin/bash
                              
                              loadAVG=$(cat /proc/loadavg  | awk '{print $1}')
                              threshold=1
                              highthreshold=3
                              status=$( echo "$loadAVG > $threshold" | bc )
                              highstatus=$( echo "$loadAVG > $highthreshold" | bc )
                              
                              echo $status
                              
                              if [ $status -gt 0 ]; then
                                      if [ $highstatus -gt 0 ]; then
                                              echo "performance" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
                                      else
                                              echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
                                      fi
                              else 
                                      echo "powersave" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
                              fi
                              

                              I've placed it in crontab at adjust the governor every minute not ideal but it does help alittle...

                              (you do have to install 'bc' for it to work : sudo apt install bc)

                                        @AppLee Yes, that's the kind of answer that's probably going to drive people crazy (especially if they're confined to their homes like so many people in the world). 😉

                                            So you're saying we should stand by for the 8GB/256GB Rockchip version? :face_with_tears_of_joy:
