SIM-PIN not stored in Focal
-
I am running Focal latest OTA4 equivalent on the original pinephone. When I insert a SIM-card with SIM-PIN and boot the phone, it asks for the SIM-PIN and then connects to the network. When I write a SMS or make a call the OS sends a message that I need to unlock the SIM and redirects me to the system,settings, privacy menu. Here the SIM-PIN switch reads "off". When I turn it on, the switch turns green and the tab shows "unlocked" but when I close the SIM-PIN tab and go back to the privacy menu it is turned off again and I can not text or make calls. I tried to leave the unlock tab open, no difference.
I thought this may be related to the read only fs but a r/w remount and reboot made no difference,
Any ideas? Not sure if this is a Focal problem or pinephone port problem so posted it in support. -
@nogoogle There is an odd issue with the PP not sure of PPP where if the device has a sim pin when you set up the phone it causes issues. If the sim has no pin all works fine.
I found this out by trying each way. You might find out more by going to the Pine 64 group on Telegram https://t.me/utonpine Another similat issue is that the APN settings "green" switch does not stay on either,
