Just updated to #LineageOS 21

I spent a bit of time making sure everything was backed up via DecSync CC, Syncthing and Seedvault as it was a bit out of date and I've never done a major update on it before (... I've been putting it off).

Turns it all went smoothly and all of my data was retained 👌

To summarise my mobile linux experience in one sentence it would be:
“How windows users think switching to linux desktop will be.”

Still enjoying it though c:
This thread will be about my experiments with my new #pinePhonePro.
I got it yesterday and had a few minor hurdles out of the gate. I followed instructions on the wiki but couldn't get it to boot into
#sailfishOS. I don't remember what I did differently but after a few attempts it booted fine. I immediately wanted to replace sailfish but first checked that sms and calls worked fine and it did (though took a while to receive the first call).
I flashed
#postmarketOS with #PlasmaMobile to an sd card and tried booting from it but quickly realised I had missed a step ​​. The wiki said I had to install #towboot to the SPI so I did that. After following the instructions properly this time I installed the OS successfully. I found Plasma extremely sluggish and unresponsive so quickly moved on. The next OS I flashed was postmarketOS again but this time with #sxmo and I immediately fell in love with the interface.
After that I went to sleep as it had been a long day and was getting late. This morning I flashed postmarketos with sxmo to the eMMC and will be tinkering with it today. Ill update this post with comments about my progress.

With these new base stations monitoring functions in the baseband userland, one could setup and fine-tune their own "IMSI-catcher catcher": record and log unusual base stations popping in and out of selected locations... super interesting!
