Hi lipu, please post some videos, pictures, news, even some guessing about Dogwood would be great

Thank you for the post. I think suspend to ram also sounds really interesting.
What I read here some times is the possibility to wake up upon phone call from the modem. Will this also cover matrix calls via wifi?
Via purism I got to know matrix when they launched the librem5 campaign. Since then my phone is mainly already where we want to go with the phone, a matrix driven phone, using only wifi or data to chat and call via matrix and no regular phone calls anymore. I guess as matrix is not using the standard calls from the modem but data this would not wake up the device, so I would have the same situation as on android (without gapps) which has no push for matrix. Any other speculations?
I don’t know what you mean by “desktop class software”, it doesn’t run pure GNU/Linux.
If you use your L5 as desktop mode, you don’t care about battery.
But it’s first a smartphone, and without a good autonomy, a smartphone has much less interest.
That has to be the priority, especially with so much delay, one would have hoped that his kind of basic thing to be fixed since the devkit was released.
What does NXP do anyway? Shouldn’t they be implementing these kinds of functions?

How is it not pure GNU Linux?

Maybe @Torrone meant was that it doesn’t run a regular desktop environment like Gnome or KDE with x64 etc but instead an arm64 with an adjusted gnome (phosh) and using this on a desktop is also kind of odd as it’s meant for mobile use?

Thanks, very thorough and bottom line approach (explaining max. current flow of probably 1.5A versus 2.5A on two batches, when powered off)! Anyway, hoping that L5 can manage full load of up to 5A Type-C SuperCharge cable (just to be on safe side) is not in question here. For general orientation I think we might use following best values (phone related) for same charger USB-A output (to USB-C): 4.5V/5A, 5V/4.5A, 12V/2.5A, 20V=1.5A and for USB Type-C output: 5V/3A, 12V/2.5A, 15V/2A, 20V/1.5V Max., as both types of outputs are usually built within the very same modern charger, when 1+1 version. Question for myself is if we are comparing cheap 5V/1.5A charger (2?%/60min.) vs original Dogwood 12V/2.5A (6?%/60min.) charger (perhaps 12V only)? All I need are clear L5 charger specifications / recommended ones and not yet another charger.
I don’t know everything, but I do know that finding Type-C PD2.0 60W Flash Charge Data Cable that is capable of transmitting 20V/3A on his own is not a problem any more (even though not an accustomed purchase).

Android is based on a custom Linux Kernel and Google ART.
No, I was speaking about Android.
You can run what you call “a regular desktop environment” on Librem 5 with PureOS or other Linux distrib. And Phosh is ok from this point of view as you can use it (it’s installed on my PC) as a desktop environment, even it’s for the moment less mature.

Is there anyone who is not an employee that has any confirmed news, videos , pictures for Dogwood?
We will be shipping them this week. We found a very odd issue that causes Dogwood to freeze during extensive burn-in in some conditions.
As such we have been working on addressing it, and this made our tests and troubleshooting take longer than anticipated.
We have informed the backers that were in the Dogwood batch of the situation. Asking if they would prefer to move their orders to Evergreen, or remain in Dogwood considering that we are troubleshooting the issue and addressing it. Everyone that choose to remain in Dogwood will have their Librem 5 Dogwood shipped this week.
This back and forth with the persons in Dogwood batch also took sometime.
In any case we will address this and provide more details soon, when we have compiled more information on the issue.

With this Dogwood issue solved, what is a likely date for Evergreen? I’ll pay more if I can get one for Christmas 
I will refer to the post we just made in the Forum about this:

Great news, really looking forward to some actual user review of dogwood! with the last issues for the second to last batch finally out of the way, we can see what the hardware experience for the final product is going to be like. Thanks for the info!

Yes! And somehow, I believe that (only) few S-VOOC2.0 car chargers like this one might be our best choice. Can someone (@joao.azevedo) test one with their Dogwood, for us waiting to get Evergreen/Fir, please!? Not an expert opinion, but Green USB-A output (as linked) should provide at least 4A at 12V. Or, am I too optimistic?
EDIT: Alternatively this one (USB-A Output1) points to cca. 3A (36W÷12V).

what? :o did they even announce the librem 5 would support fast charging? that’s pretty amazing!

You are probably too optimistic. TheLinuxGamer’s unboxing video of Birch had a charger that supported 5Vx3A (15W), 9Vx2A (18W) and 12Vx1.5A (18W) charging.

12V charging is announced! Rest on how to charge Librem 5 I need to find out too. Perhaps this might work well (by excluding direct usage of 5V only USB-A chargers).
@amosbatto, sorry that I continue to be unclear when asking questions (another nonexpert approach to understand how things work). Perhaps this below screenshot from ASUS official site explains one of possible solutions (that might be of interest to accept as something unusual, instead of 12V×1.5A, at least) for all users, including gamers on i.MX8M Quad:
Example above (although not usable within car) points out to an Asus AD21130020 (for EU) charger (12V×2.5A) for ROG Phone (ZS600KL).
