Hey all!

I am anxiously chomping at the bit for the tool library. I work as a USPS mail carrier and like to listen to audiobooks and Spotify playlists while ai am on route. I have been carrying an old smartphone without service as a media device. Admittedly, this works fine but I really don’t like carrying an extra device. Too much fiddling with audio outputs and keeping two devices charged. Minor annoyances I admit. I know the tool library is a few months out, and I am getting impatient with especially since I saw someone post a audiobook tool. I looked at the guide in modified light phones subreddit and frankly it’s a whole lot to absorb. I am worried about screwing up my phone. Can folks give me some insight to their experiences. I don’t really want to change the os. I kind of just want to add a tool or two to the existing list. Is that possible? Thanks in advance!

I’ve been running into an issue for the past few days. I’ve been noticing that randomly I will not have any signal, despite being in an area I know had decent service. When I hard reboot the phone suddenly I have a good connection. I have definitely missed calls and texts due to this issue. It’s especially problematic because communication is a big part of my work day. I’ve tried using the reboot lightos option in settings and that doesn’t solve the issue, I have to power it down and start it back up, and sometimes the issue happens again in quick succession. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Very recently I have run into an issue when trying to stream a podcast is causing the os to crash and/or reboot. When trying to stream an podcast it will seem to be buffering but takes awhile, long enough for the screen to sleep. When I wake it, the light phone logo come up and it goes back to phone with no indication of a podcast running. I checked and the list of podcast had recently updated. An old save episode played without issue, but after playing a downloaded episode successfully, I tried streaming an episode and it crashed again. Has anyone else run into issues. I’m using a light phone 3, on the mint mobile network and have hit my data cap so things loaded slowly recently, but up until yesterday they were playing. I have tried rebooting the phone and os with no changes.
