Text sending was working yesterday. The process: This -thing- was put to sleep (tapped power button in) NOTE: The light at top right is out. Stays out the whole time. Today, taped Power Button to wake. For wake up (kinda). Sent text. Chat shows it as sent. Nothing was received. Sent text to Me.…

Considering how persistent these various issues are on your Librem 5, I suggest getting a Liberty Phone, this time with anti-interdiction services.

If I had a device with many problems, I wouldn’t be likely to throw more money at the same company.

[image] Sharon: Since the Notifications ➸ Power ➸Off<Power Off just displays Librem ad again, I had to press and hold the physical button top right to power off. By “Librem ad,” I’m guessing you mean the Librem 5 splash screen. This “hang” issue is a known problem. Happens to me (and others)…

[image] Sharon: WT do I need to do so I don’t have to power off the hard way? [image] How Do I Resurrect Network, WiFi, Mobile, Librem 5 AFAICT, it is the same issue, different symptoms. It might not be, but I am fairly certain that it is. I had the exa…

[image] amarok: Apparently it’s because a process hasn’t completely stopped when we try to shut the phone down. This occasionally happens on big Linux computers too. It’s just “normal” and somewhat sensible behaviour but, on the down side, annoying behaviour - and you don’t get a decent error…

[image] irvinewade: use Alt+whatever Possibly from the “Librem 5” splash screen when the L5 is docked, or if the key combo is initiated from squeekboard when the “an application is busy” message pops up and before the attempt to shut down is made? (Although from that screen, you could just ki…

You can’t always kill the process at all because sometimes the reason the process hasn’t terminated is because it is holding “something” inside the kernel i.e. the kernel itself is blocking the process from terminating and then stalling the shutdown because the process hasn’t gone away. Also, the h…

I tried that already because I remembered it solved the issue. Too, when doing it again it didn’t change this issue. Thanks. .

That’s why I put “normal” in quotes. I mean the kernel is attempting to do the right thing and maintain integrity but it is always a bug when this happens. I didn’t bother to mention the SysRq key because I suspect that it won’t work on the Librem 5. Have you tried that, perhaps with a USB keyboard…

Some old , same old. Phone on Fritz Again
