Hi all,

For pinebud users out there, how is the voice quality when making calls with these? Is the open firmware any better than the default one that ships in this regard?

Thanks!

HI,

I have a pinephone (not pro) with battery keyboard and last version of postmarketOS.
I didn't noticed any problem at start but after few days, power management in settings app in postmarketOS showed two 'extra batteries' which lead to problems calculating the percentage of charge. (max was 67% instead of 100% when fully charged)
Since two days I now have a third extra battery instead of only one (1 main battery + 3 extra batteries) ... how can I correct this please ?

Thx.

So I recently installed arch https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Pi...g/20230203 on on my Pinephone (not pro), and tried to use the keyboard which was fine except the top row characters ( - _ + = ~ etc), I don't know exactly what i did but it fixed it for me.

I updated my ppkb's firmware to 1.3 here's the guide to update https://xnux.eu/log/#078

I then used the bottom part of this guide https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php...ccessories this part:
Symbol Keys
With the latest version of the keyboard drivers, the Fn-symbol keys disappear. This can be fixed by:

• Setting
  
  Code:

  XKB_DEFAULT_MODEL=ppkb
  in Phosh's environment. Add the following to
  
  Code:

  /usr/lib/systemd/system/phosh.service.d/override.conf
  :
  

• Reboot or restart Phosh.
  

Some time ago I noticed that I no longer hear my peer during a call. After some investigation and trying different images I installed factory test image from here: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_P...e_Checking
No sound can be heard during earpiece test even there . So I come to conclusion that Earpiece is not working on my device at all. It was working previously, sadly I cannot confirm exact point when the issue started.
Is there anything I can do with that?

With PP Community/Physical kb/Manajro Phosh Beta 29, I have a grayed-out Alarm-or-Bell icon next to the battery icon. Is there any way to remove that? I don't use the PP for any alarms.

Thanks.

hello dear unixoid friends. I recently purchased a keyboard. I'm testing with the factory assembly of Manjaro with kde plasma.

In kde plasma mobile in the settings there is the ability to enable various language layouts only for the on-screen keyboard.

There are no settings as such for the hardware keyboard in the graphical interface.

Please tell me, do not refuse the beginner, how can I not only add a second language layout, but also assign switching keys. 

My Pinephone Pro doesn't start and it seems like the bootloader itself is not working. 


Whether I press or hold the power button or connect the charging cable or combine the former with holding any of the volume buttons, nothing happens - no vibration, no LED light, no display output. 

The battery does not seem to be the problem - it works reliably in my older Pinephone. 

I tried flashing a fresh Manjaro image to an SD card and booting it in the PPP by holding the RE button during the startup. Again, no visible response. 

The following output from the PPP console is the only response I am able to get. It is shown right after a startup attempt.


U-Boot TPL 2021.10 (Oct 04 2021 - 15:09:26)
sdram_init: LPDDR4 - 50MHz failed!
rk3399_dmc_init DRAM init failed -22
Missing DTB



After this the console remains mute. However, the device seems to be "running" - for lack of a better word - the chipset cover is slightly warm and to replicate the former console output again, the power button needs to be pressed for a few seconds - just like in regular reset.


Could you please help me with an advice? Is the device dead for good? Have anyone encountered a similar behavior?

Hi all,



I've been having problems getting the on-board SATA port on the Quartz64 Model A working, and I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction.  Thanks in advance for any help.



Hardware

• Quartz64 model A
  
• Current generation HDD
  
• SATA cable
  
• 5A power supply
  
• Pine64 board to 2x SATA power splitter cable
  

• Latest Manjaro image for the quartz64-a, running kernel 6.1.12-1-MANJARO-ARM
  
• Manual edits to the device tree as per the wiki: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Quartz64#SATA_on_model_A
  

• Tested SATA cable in another system, confirmed good; tested with other known-good SATA cables
  
• Tested a 2 port SATA to PCIe adaptor card (the Pine64 one), which works perfectly on this board
  
• Tested multiple known-good HDDs one at a time; all work via the PCIe card, none appear on the on-board SATA port
  
• Tested running 3 drives simultaneously; those plugged into the PCIe adapter work, but not on the on-board SATA port.  Have cycled which drive was plugged into which SATA port, for the same result
  

Hello, I have been using a pp for more than a year and never had this problem, I got this SIM card from kena, a virtual operator that uses tim network.
It displays the 4G signal with "!" I have tried the automatic depection of APN simpydoing nothing, then the recommended by the operator, then some other possible combination, none work. On a degoogled phone it works without any problems or need of manual setup. Any tips?
