          Still no joy over here on the sms receiving. Sms works both ways on my backup PinePhone, and I've tried every setting I can find on four different service providers sim cards, but still no joy on my Cosmo. I'm out of ideas. My current workaround is to reboot into Debian every now and then to check for messages, not ideal but the best I can think of.
          Apart from that, no concerns at all. It works well in landscape with the keyboard, it's very snappy and smooth, rock solid stable, and does everything I need.

            I think it's a super nice looking machine, and in a year or three I'll see if I can get one second hand! A new one is above budget, but I can wait...

              @moem Cosmo Communicators are already cheap as second-hand devices (250-300 EUR). But you are probably referring to the Astro Slides, and for these, a one year waiting time (after the release in March?) might be a good guess.

              VollaPhone22 (dual-boot of VollaOS and UT 20.04 OTA-5), Pocophone F1 (pmOS, edge)

                That is still above the budget for a toy. πŸ˜‰ But I can wait.

                  a couple of fairly recent review articles about UBports on Cosmo for anyone who may be interested:

                    A formal release of this is expected to happen later this year. The company is said to be working with the UBports community and the Linux community at large to bring support for other Linux distributions to its portable computers.

                    :face_with_raised_eyebrow: interesting

                    Something more official from ubports would be great.

                      Yes, I wouldn't want to vouch for the accuracy of that statement in the article, but we can dream πŸ™‚
                      Also I just think it's good to get some publicity for the Cosmo and UBports.

                          A Cosmo Communicator has, as if by magic, appeared in this house. Are there any instructions for installation? Please note that I'm not experienced with this sort of thing, I have only ever installed UT through the Installer.

                                Thanks! I saw that but it's a bit over my head... Gemian install? I never heard of Gemian but it seems to be something that can be installed... (Yes, yes, I can look it up.)
                                See, I was hoping for something a little more basic. But maybe it doesn't exist.

                                          If you still need help I will try to help you later when I finish work.
                                          There are a few steps, but all fairly simple if I managed them.
