    [26383.139688] anx7688 0-0028: recv ocm message cmd=0xf2 01 f2 Ød
    [26383.139732] anx7688 0-0028: received HARD_RST, idiot firmware is bored
    

    This indicates that the PinePhone is encountering issues with the anx7688 modem driver and is receiving a Hard Reset (HARD_RST). The “idiot firmware is bored” is likely a humorous or sarcastic remark about the perceived quality or stability of the modem firmware causing this issue.
    Based on the “bored” remake, I assume it probably has to do with some sort of wake state, where after some time of not receiving signals the modem hardware turns off then doesn’t wake when signals are sent, requiring a hard reset to power on, but that’s just speculation.
    The PinePhone uses a power management processor called “CRUST” to achieve great standby numbers, but it can lead to issues with the modem waking up after deep sleep, so I believe my speculation is plausible.
    Maybe a possible fix would to be to send the modem dummy “do nothing” packets or signals at repeating intervals to keep the hardware awake.

    Edit : my speculation here seems incorrect, thus the solution is incorrect as well.
    See below.

        I actually did not… chatgpt isn’t the only ai that exists (⁠◠⁠‿⁠◕⁠)

        Tbf, my writing style is already quite AI-like due to constantly reading documentation.
        Unironically, that’s not even the bit written by AI. The only part that is,

        the BC 1.2 result indicating the USB charging mode, and the change in the charge controller status.

        As I had no clue what the hell “BC 1.2” was indicating and didn’t want to go digging around in the docs for something that obscure. Other things, like “HARD_RST” being a hard reset signal is kinda obvious, imho. I will admit, some is pulled straight from the docs though.

        The PinePhone uses a power management processor called “CRUST” to achieve great standby numbers.

        Verbatim ripped from the PinePhone docs, that’s why it reads more like an advertisement trying to hype up the power management, lol.

        P.S. I use uncensored Llama.
        P.P.S. I have reading OCD when it comes to my own messages, that’s why 99% of them are edited.
        P.P.P.S. I put my comment through Llama just now asking it to “AI-ify” it and it’s less AI-like then my actual writing : 1000001132
        Or maybe it’s more, because honestly who the hell says “tongue-in-cheek”?

            \ is a line break in markdown.
            Your client seems to not support markdown properly.
            Also, I don’t like the look of blank new lines where they’re not necessary; stylistic choice.
