Is it possible to use one of the Pine64 boards for use as a Arm Linux OS for use as a mini computer to use Ubuntu or Arch as a Linux desktop computer? And will Pine64 ever make a Linux Desktop mini pc version of hardware?

Hi guys,

I seem to have a problem with updating Mobian:

Whenever I try to update it, it says:

Recent developments: call audio dramatically improved, perfectly acceptable quality.

Shutter camera is back working and work has started on getting the front camera too. At present the viewfinder only works correctly in landscape mode, so turn off orientation lock.

What's not working: wifi sometimes fails to reconnect after a period of sleep; the top bar icon remains lit but under developer tools you can see the IP address is no longer listed. Just toggle the top bar icon off and on again.

The flash-it script installs sfos 4.5.0.19 download here https://github.com/sailfish-on-dontbeevi...lash-it.sh (click download icon).

You need tow-boot installed on emmc, if you don't already have it read this: https://tow-boot.org/devices/pine64-pinephoneA64.html Go to releases and find the file for PP or PPP under Assets. It's a tar.xz so you need to extract the image first.

Hi,
has anyone successfully opened the pinetab2 to remove the screen?

I did receive some videos/pictures from support but i can't even slide my nails on the separation, tried with a guitar pick and even a plastic piece slimmer than that.
How did you do this?
Everything i have seen shows the screen already out of the case and then they slide something to finish opening it, but i'm not sure how to take it out in the first place...

If anyone has done this before i would appreciate any advice, would like to avoid breaking the screen...

Thanks

Hello,

I'm trying to buy pencil, but when I make an order, there is info that there are no shipping methods available. I made a ticket at https://pine64.zohodesk.com/portal/en/home 5 days ago, but there is no any answer. Is it possible to but pencil with shipping to Ukraine?

I’m an astronomer & I use Linux as my primary OS on my laptop. I’ve been looking to move to linux bases phone (but not android).
Is the pine phone usable / comparable to an iPhone now (maybe not image quality), but for msging, video calls, internet and basic social media apps?
Are there any clips of people using them with a docking station?

Hi

I was wondering if there was a video on how to use the uart cable to reinstall danctnix.

I have listed here problems with Abiword on the Pinephone which make it impossible to use Abiword with postmarkedOS stable:

The only option left here is to change the distro from postmarkedOS stable to Postmarket OS Phosh Edge, which is a lot of work. But why can I not write a file to the exernal SD card with Abiword? I can save a file to the internal SD card with Abiword, but not to to the exernal SD card. Is there a way to do it or is it an issue that Abiword cannot do this?
