"BraveHeart" PinePhone Unboxing and First Time
Preparation Guide
PinePhone is capable of running a multitude of different Linux mobile OSes
From the factory the battery has a sticker on it that isolates the battery from
the phone. The battery
will not
charge until this is removed.
After unboxing remove the back panel. Then remove the battery and peel off the
clear plastic sticker below it that isolates the charging contact. Then replace
the battery. See #Battery for more info.
If you power on the phone the factory test image will boot. RTL8723CS (WiFi
modem) will fail unless there is a WiFi network in range for it to see and the
battery is charged. EG25 will fail until battery is charged.
