      Checking my bluetooth headhones on my PinePhone on dev shows that they are working. I will switch to the dev channel. And
      I see that the PinePhone is just getting an update on dev too.

        The PineTab had UBPorts Ubuntu Touch installed and no updates were available on the stable channel.
        The device connected to wifi no trouble.
        Morph Browser works OK to access the web - Youtube videos played but the sound was a bit disappointing.
        No sound through headphones and Bluetooth headphones not connecting.
        Updating to dev now...

              Is rotation working for you guys? I'm stuck in portrait it seems. Rotation itself seems to work. At least it did in the 5min on Mobian.

                  @OldGrumpySwede On the telegram group someone said that the panel has been switched in the last 6 weeks or so and therefore most of the other distros are not configured for it yet. In my own tests out of postmarketOS, manjaro and mobian only the latter worked-ish so far.

                    @halucigenia
                    Got mine yesterday
                    Very nice it is too.
                    I can confirm that after flashing last nights dev build:

                    Bluetooth is not working
                    Rotation seems to be not working
                    Camera not working (at all)
                    Dekko seems crashy
                    Account setup not yet possible for online accounts - for me anyway even with @rubencarneiro fix I used to use on a OnePlus 3T

                    First impressions?

                    What I expected. Need to work out a few things of course and lots of bugs to start to hammer out but hey I have a tablet in my hands that came with a keyboard and trackpad that is a little buggy but - it runs Ubuntu Touch so I am happy

                    Lots to do and need to crack on with it.

                    I got my Nexus 4 then 5 then FP2 then one plus cooking on #UBUNTU via @ubports and have run it on Op3T Op6t OP5T Pinephone/Pro Pine Tab and Pinebook Pro and my favourite OnePlus One.

                      Got a couple of Kingston Canvas Select Plus microSD Card SDCS2/64 GB SP Class 10 to test with.
                      Worked fine and formatted OK on the PinePhone.
                      The PineTab booted OK with it in and recognised it but would not format it. I got "There was an error while formatting the device.
                      I noticed a small switch next to the SD slot so i changed the position - switched it down towards the bottom of the tablet and rebooted. It still booted OK and formatted the device.
                      Did I just find the SD card write protect switch?

                        Indeed you did.

                        EDIT: I totally misunderstood and thought you were referencing the switch on the sdcard, but you meant the one next to the sdcard slot on the PineTab.

                          @arubislander Have either of you worked how we can boot from the SD Card yet? ie with another distro ?

                            @halucigenia Checked the sound issue.
                            Tested the Uart/Headphone switch (next to SC Card slot) - nothing
                            Ran sudo alsamixer and noted Headphones were set to Mute!
                            Hit tab to get to the Headphone bar - Hit M to Unmute and bingo !
                            Now have sound through headphones

                                I think that production PineTabs will be available in less time than production PinePhones due to the lower complexity of the device, yes. It may in fact be the case that this PCBA revision is final - we don't know this yet however. Regardless, small tweaks for efficiency or aesthetics are likely to follow in future batches.

                                  @andybleaden I ran sudo alsamixer and noted that the headphones were set to mute (MM) also but unmute did not bring the headphone up on the PineTab.
                                  re-"Uart/Headphone switch (next to SC Card slot)"
                                  So, that was what I thought was the SD card write protect switch? πŸ™„
                                  The headphones started working after switching that back upwards.
                                  This trick works on the PinePhone too.
                                  Plugging in the headphones does not mute the speakers though and you have to mute the line out to mute the speakers in alsamixer to do that.

                                          You have to give more context here.
                                          Are you having the same issue as andybleaden ?
                                          What do you try to achieve ?

                                            @AppLee just to note I have had no sd card issues. Mine were like all others = Bluetooth rotation sound (fixable)

                                            I have read sdcard is hard for some to insert (small space) (upside down !) And boy does it ping the card out fast and far!

                                            I use it to test other distros (too) often but still using and enjoying by Ubuntu Pinetab

                                            Main beef for me still Bluetooth and rotation. Fix those and it's fine for me

                                            I got my Nexus 4 then 5 then FP2 then one plus cooking on #UBUNTU via @ubports and have run it on Op3T Op6t OP5T Pinephone/Pro Pine Tab and Pinebook Pro and my favourite OnePlus One.
