Pinephone setup
Below are the steps I follow post standard installation of mobian on my pinephone.
Start temporary terminal session
The first thing I do once the operating system is installed and up to date is to install tmate so that I can start a temporary remotely accessible terminal session on the device.
This will give us a terminal session we can use to complete the remainder of this setup.
sudo apt install --yes tmateSetup ssh server
Once we have a foothold on the device via tmate we need to setup ssh server which we will use to securely connect to the device.
sudo apt install --yes openssh-serverSetup access tunnel
We want to be able to drop into a terminal on the device from anywhere provided it is powered on and has an internet connection. We can achieve this using a cloudflare access tunnel.
There are many similar projects that can achieve a similar outcome however I currently use cloudflare for dns for my domains and want to keep control plane sprawl down currently. In future I might move to a self hosted tunnel solution.
To install the cloudflared daemon on the phone go to the control plane at https://one.dash.cloudflare.com, select the james-pinephone-pro tunnel, then run the given command on the pinephone terminal to install the service.
Note: Ensure to select the arm64-bit architecture rather than the default 64-bit.
The command will look something like this:
curl -L --output cloudflared.deb https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared/releases/latest/download/cloudflared-linux-arm64.deb &&
sudo dpkg -i cloudflared.deb &&
sudo cloudflared service install <token>Bluetooth audio fix
To pair a wireless headset we first need to install the pa bluetooth module.
sudo apt install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
