Please report back. I have had some troubles with my USB-C hardware at the bottom of the phone so I would like to know if the hardware can be replaced.
Your version of the script still defaulted to downloading the plain variant and did not have the --stable
argument code implemented. It was updated to downloading the LUKS variant around June 2023 after I emailed Purism about it.
But I just reflashed luks in August with the “old” version.
Another reason is that there are no Byzantium images for Evergreen to download on Jenkins because the build process is broken again:
It can be! I got mine replaced a couple of months ago
If you do not mind: What did you have to do? What did it cost?
This is what they cost in May of 2024
USB board: 49.00 USD
Display: 150 USD
PCB board: 300 USD
Can you replace the USB and PC board on your own?
I don’t know, sorry
Yes (1:57):
We’re aware there are still no Jenkins builds of Byzantium, but the stable build (with --stable
) is available. We’re fixing build infrastructure issues as part of the work to release Crimson.
Can you tell me how to order these? I believe I need a new USB board.
Just contact support@puri.sm
And then ping JCS after you send the email.
I hate to ask, but do I have to ping JCS every time I make a support request? Is there a civil period of time in which we all agree that JCS may now be pinged? I hate bothering people with my problems who should not really need to be bothered.
Maybe we should ask him what he thinks when it makes most sense?
Otherwise I would say at least 2 weeks of waiting, so Purism can also have a little delay.
No, and use your best judgment.
I wanted to report back to everyone that I contacted support and I did not ping JCS.
Support took about 4 days to get back to me. Not too bad. The costs for a new USB board is $49.00 plus shipping.
