@AppLee Got it. Ordered myself a 3.5mm breakout from Amazon. Thanks for the tip.

@dieharddan Confirm this works, but the connection only lasts a few minutes before dropping again and having to reboot again.

Hi all,

Just wanted to say quick I'm excited about the work you guys are doing here. I've been working in embedded Linux professionally for a long time. I'd love to see efforts like this succeed and get Linux into mainstream mobile devices.

With that said, I wanted to contribute in some way and decided to pick up a PinePhone Braveheart edition. I was able to get UT (I believe build #217 from the github) running in pretty short order on an SD card, but am having issues with the WiFi right off the bat. I'm trying to troubleshoot, but since I have no method to remote into the device with WiFi down, it's been difficult just using the terminal and pre-installed tools.

I was able to connect to my home network fine on initial startup, but then the connection dropped (unsure why) and I've been unable to reconnect even with system reboots. dmesg is reporting the following (shorted because I'm manually typing them up):

init: ubuntu-location-service main process (1695) killed by SEGV signal
init: ubuntu-location-service main process ended, respawning
init: failsafe main process (1886) killed by TERM signal
(ubuntu-location-service messages repeat for several cycles)
...
init: ubuntu-location-service respawning too fast, stopped
init: system-watchdog main process (PID) terminated with status 1
init: isc-dhcp-server main process (PID) terminated with status 1
init: isc-dhcp-server main process ended, respawning
(isc-dhcp-server messages repeat for several cycles)
...
systemd-logind[1873]: Failed to start user service, ignoring: Unknown unit: user@32011.service
(isc-dhcp-server messages continue. no new information, just terminating/respawning)
...
(bunch of i2s messages here discussing channels, period, sample rate, and parent clock and divisors)
(GSM modem enumerations on /dev/ttyUSB1-3 nodes)
systemd-timedated[3504]: Assertion 'path' failed at ../src/basic/path-util.c:354, function path_startswith(). Aborting
vcc5v0: disabling

ifconfig -a shows the wlan0 interface with a MAC address, but no IP (makes sense based on systemd messages on startup)

Is there any way to get into the device through a terminal outside of ssh since I don't have network connectivity? Any ideas on troubleshooting the WiFi issues further?

Thanks
