Status of Suspend for Librem 5

Hardware Librem 5
167

A number of messages in this thread had me confused or actively negated each other, but at the time of this writing, on a librem 5 running PureOS byzantium, this is what you should do (and this should be somehow clearly communicated to all librem 5 owners, I think):

  1. In a terminal, run cat /proc/cmdline to find the current version of the uboot bootloader on your device. If the version number starts with 2019, continue to the next step; if it starts with 2022, you don’t have to update.
  2. Run sudo apt update && sudo apt install u-boot-librem5 to install a package that can update the bootloader.
  3. Run sudo u-boot-install-librem5 /dev/mmcblk0 to update the bootloader.
  4. Reboot the phone via the GUI or run sudo reboot to start the phone using the newly updated bootloader.

No need for manual deb package downloads anymore!
