  pinetab2 hardware is not very good
Posted by: lmartin - 08-16-2023, 11:02 AM - Forum: PineTab Hardware - Replies (13)

The pinetab2 hardware is not very good. I know the price is relatively low (without taxes/custom duty), but it's not even worth that money. This is not hardware for year 2023, I has a weak CPU and the touch of the display is the worst I have seen on a tablet. A basic benchmark puts this table way behind a Xiaomi M2, an entry level phone launched in  2018.
And it's not only in the benchmarks were you feel the slowness, I am sincerely disappointed.


  Repeat previous command in console
Posted by: ionmich - 08-16-2023, 08:00 AM - Forum: Arch Linux on PinePhone - No Replies

Having no up arrow on my keyboard, how do I repeat the previous command executed in the console?


The latest update returned  the arrow keys. Sorry for the bother.


  Which SATA card should I use my NAS server RAID5
Posted by: Louysa - 08-16-2023, 02:24 AM - Forum: RockPro64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (3)

Hello everyone! I am planning to create a NAS server with RAID5 on my RockPro64. I will probably use Seagate IronWolf for my hdds. But I could not decide on my card yet. I am brand new in this area so I am a little bit confused.

These are the card I am considering but right now:
this
this
this

Any recommendations? I just want to make sure it works before I buy it. I am open the alternatives.
Have a nice day.


  Is the USB 3.0 port still an issue for Q64 model A?
Posted by: andreas1107 - 08-16-2023, 02:24 AM - Forum: Quartz64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (3)

Does anyone know if the comment in the development wiki is still accurate?

From https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Quartz64_Development :


Confirmed Broken
  • USB 3.0 (applies to Model A only) — only works with very short cables and depends on the device. This is due to a hardware design issue relating to the coupling capacitors needed for SATA, which shares the same lines as USB 3.0.
    • Hardware design changes have been suggested to engineers, it's in their hands now.



I got a Quartz64 model A about a month ago and am now wondering if some issues I've been seeing with my board may be related to the USB 3.0 port.


Thanks


  My customer support experience
Posted by: ionmich - 08-15-2023, 11:29 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (1)

My PinePhone64 stopped connecting to my router wi-fi. After several tests I determined that the problem was the phone. I contacted customer service and they asked me to download and run a test program (app). Not easily done with no Internet connection. But I managed. It took several attempts but finally I got a test that reported RTL8723CS had failed. Nevertheless they asked me to repeat the test several times as I had not tested for all the devices. Not really a problem, but it took some extra time. Then they asked me to remove the motherboard and its many tiny screws to ship it to them for replacement. I was concerned I would damage the board. I objected, telling them that I had bought a complete phone not a motherboard and that I would ship them the whole phone (minus battery). They agreed. Shipping from Sweden to Slovakia was expensive. They received it on 27th. July.

It arrived today 15th. August and it works normally. I would call that good customer support. But downloading your test version from “Historic factory builds” on https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...Download_9 and running it will speed up the process.


  Proximity lock on Plasma Mobile
Posted by: alpineduck - 08-14-2023, 05:51 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - No Replies

Hello,

I've been testing Plasma Mobile a few times, and there are quite a few things I do like better than on Phosh, but I always end up considering it unsuitable for serious use as a phone because of one major issue: the screen doesn't turn off or even lock when putting the phone on the ear during a phone call! The screens stays on and your ear can randomly open menus and change settings by touching the screen. I'm really surprised that this still doesn't work, as it's a rather basic and vital feature of any phone UI.

On Phosh, the screen stays on but gets locked and blanked when the proximity sensor is covered. That's not ideal, but usable.

On sxmo and Gnome Mobile, it gets properly turned off.

Is there something I didn't figure out to enable the feature, or is the proximity sensor really not supported by Plasma Mobile?


  Line breaks in SMS log
Posted by: alpineduck - 08-14-2023, 11:34 AM - Forum: Sxmo on PinePhone - No Replies

Hello,

Currently giving sxmo a try, I'm annoyed by the SMS log breaking words in order to fit full lines.

Instead of randomly brok

I redact my messages in the "micro" editor and there I can enable the options "softwrap" and "wordwrap" to get lines to break on spaces only, but I don't know how to configure a similar behaviour for the log. Any idea?
