Hi,  
When i run sudo pacman -Syyu, i run into synchronisation issues. None of the mirrors work. Can someone please remind me how to fix the mirrors.

Hello, could you post pacman output? You can try refreshing mirrors using the refresh mirrors tool. If that doesn’t work, you can edit the mirrorlist file (/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist) to use Geo mirrors or mirrors selected for locations near you. For manually picking mirrors, you can use Arch Linux ARM mirrorlisting page at: [https://archlinuxarm.org/about/mirrors](https://archlinuxarm.org/about/mirrors)

`sudo pacman -S rate-mirrors`  
rate-mirrors app allows you to automatically get the newest mirrors and sort them  
`sudo rate-mirrors archarm --allow-root --save=/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist`
