I have a NAS sporting a minidlna server here. In most devices, the server shows up in KODI or VLC to select mediafiles from. Not so in PineTab2. In KODI I normally switch on UpnP services in order to see the server at all, but even doing so in the PineTab2 isn't working. I suppose some piece of software wasn't ported yet in order to have UpnP service. Can anybody tell me which one I should try to get there?

my Manjaro KDE Plasma Mobile works well, but recently I discovered the address book does not show any contacts at all. In accounts, only my NextCloud account is present and for many months the contacts were synced quite well (many duplicates). NextCloud desktop is installed too and it works. Is there a way to re install the accounts functionality, or is a compete re flash the way to go?

While China is technically a "developed" country now, it still gets developing nation status with the International Postal Union which means small & light weight packages can be sent for next to nothing.

Yet, we seem to pay an exorbitant amount of shipping cost for shipping items from the Pine64.com web site compared to what ePacket cost.

I have even asked some makers online saying/showing they are purchasing some relevant items and I ask, "Why no 'x' from Pine64."

Answer: "shipping!"

Had a seal failure on my Pinetime.
Backlight not turning off when the display blanks and flickering when display is on and later some scanlines not drawing correctly.
Cleaning the PCB and screen connector hasn't fixed the problem and the display has started showing dimmer blotches so I figure there must be moisture on the display side.
So is it possible to non-destructively remove the LCD from the front case and if so how?

Hello ! I received my pinetab a few days ago, after some testing  and installing some apps, the battery indicator
stays at 100 %. In settings shows discharging but is after an hour still at 100 %.
Would be great if someone has an idea how to solve this

Hello! I'm having a bug with the PineTab2 virtual keyboard (Maliit) with two different Flathub packages (ungoogled-chromium and Xlog).

When I press a number with the virtual keyboard, the "shift" version of that number is actually entered into the UI. For example, when pressing 3, # is entered, or 4, $ is entered, etc.

I've left the state of the PineTab2 largely unchanged since receiving it — no major OS changes, etc.

Is anyone else able to reproduce this? If yes, where's the correct place to report this bug? Thanks!

I need a fleet of low cost laptops for a factory floor and am evaluating the PineBook Pro.

I received my unit today, booted it up, set up the user account and was happy with how painless it was. Then the software updater in Manjaro said there were a bunch of updates available so I hit the button to update. The computer rebooted as a part of this process and now it will no longer boot. I get the power LED and nothing on the screen.

Where do I go from here? Are software updates on this thing generally a dicey proposition?

Hello community,

since I realized yesterday that adding new contacts or create/join groups doesn't work anymore in Axolotl (development is dead for months now, so it's good that at least sending/recieving messages in existing conversations STILL works for me... at least for the moment... ):

How does the community use Signal today (if you use it) on your PinePhone?

- Still using the not further developed Axolotl like me?
- Using Signal-"Desktop" for Linux (self-compiled or pre-compiled like here)?
- Using Flare?
- Using something different?

Every Linux compatible Signal client (also Flare) I'm aware of NEEDS a Android/iOS device (which I don't have) with official Signal client for linking... except Axolotl... which was awesome but doesn't work completely anymore (and without developement it will becoming worse and worse for sure).

How do you use Signal (if you use it)?
Are there any alternative Signal clients I'm not aware of?
(Please don't mention stuff like Telegram, I'm the reason a few of my friends use Signal now, I can't come up with something different again now... )

Best Regards & thanks for any suggestions,
dante404

When I try to watch a video on udemy I am getting the following message: " We tried several times to play your video but there was an unforeseen error."

I ran into this problem on my desktop a while back, but I can't remember what codec I needed to install to fix this issue.
