        Either I press the power button, or the screen turns off automatically, when I try to turn the screen back on it quickly fades to black and won't turn back on forcing me to do a hard reboot...

        Please tell me there is a fix as searching for one gives me nothing! I've even tried flashing directly to the internal storage and it still does it!

        Currently using the latest Pinephone Community Beta Edition.

          Okay, now it's not expanding the storage when flashing... What is going on!?

              @reallyfesucks What update channel are you using? I do not have this on current devel. You can also try here https://t.me/utonpine

                    The multiboot is not ours. Only the flashed OS.

                      @bolly I was attempting to establish wether or not the boot loader could have been at fault obviously a custom multiboot image doesnt belong to ubports..

                        I also have this issue, setup the phone and now it’s going black (backlight still on) after pressing the power button or letting it timeout.

                        Got my image from the link on pine64’s getting started page. https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/rootfs-pinephone-systemimage/

                        Selected the “last stable build” option.

                            May I ask how to access the dev or RC images without enabling internet access on the phone? I’m new to the FOSS scene and only want to install updates via flashing w/ etcher each time.

                            Thank you

                              @shamwowguy The easiest way is to go to System settings on the phone, then Updates. There should then be a cog wheel top right hand corner, tap on that then Channels and then change the channel to RC or devel. No need to use anything other than the phone.

                                Right but that would require me to connect the phone to the internet. I’m trying to keep this phone strictly as a phone and nothing more, hence why I want to flash it with an image.

                                  @shamwowguy Ok misunderstood. They should be available from the same place you got the stable version if I remember correctly. Use the green up arrow https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/rootfs-pinephone-systemimage-devel/
