SUMMARY
Getting SMS messages to work properly is an exercise in futility.  I'm not sure where the stopgap is but one issue I've found is that it doesn't see my Pinephone as an actual phone but rather as just a generic Linux device.  I connected to an Android phone and I saw that there are a few more options available.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect phone
2. Open KDE Connect SMS

OBSERVED RESULT
"No Devices Available"

EXPECTED RESULT
Device is seen and connects.

It should be noted that I'm not a developer and I don't know how to code.  I only know how to complain and point out problems/make suggestions.  I tried to tell the PostmarketOS guys in the Matrix and they told me to come to you guys, so I made an account and have done so.
