      How can I flash UBPorts to the eemc? After testing pmos, KDE neon, and manjaro neon I see UBPorts as having the most promise and ebung the furthest along in development. predictive text, a functioning app store, theres an app to connect to my self hosted nextcloud server, theres just a huge list of positives I'm seeing. Next task will be to see if I can get verizon service going on it. In the mean time I really want to run this from the speed of the internal flash storage.

      Some other things I'd like to do; screen rotating, test the camera, test headphones and I'm sure I'll think of more with time.

            Updated to #217 got hung in setup with demo screen " pull down" , quick off/on, got past that.
            it is very slick and good looking in operation.
            Re the time zone function ,I guess thats related to location etc .

              About the timezone, Bearded1 on UBports TG channel send this :

              sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
              sudo timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York
              

              You can set the timezone using either command and even by choosing Manually in the settings...
              Changes may take some time to be visible.

                            @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).

                                        Open. Friendly. Community Driven.
