Photo Can no longer take pictures, /dev/video* not recognized as video devices
Posted by: 64_Tesseract - 01-26-2023, 10:19 AM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - No Replies

This started a couple months or so ago, trying to open Megapixels just returned the error /dev/video2: No such device
I thought maybe the ribbon cable to to the camera got dislodged after dropping the phone hundreds of times, so I took them out and back in, but still had no luck with it. I could hear the lens or something clicking when trying to start Megapixels, so at least something was connecting, though it's since stopped...
I eventually updated PostmarketOS from 21.something to 22.12 thinking it was just a software issue, but it didn't help; I only got a different error: Could not find camera entity matching 'ov5640'
I also tried taking a picture with ffmpeg using all 3 /dev/videos, but got Not a video capture device and /dev/video2: No such device again.

I haven't gotten around to trying another OS yet, but I doubt this is a software issue considering that 2 other things broke as well, being the internal storage and rear speaker (kinda). Is there any way of narrowing the issue down to a specific component? Or will I have to build I2C prosthetics for my phone, or more realistically just get the Pro?


  NVME fails detection
Posted by: our0 - 01-25-2023, 01:25 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (1)

Hi,

My setup :
- latest arm64 Kali, with kernel 6.0.0-kali5-arm64
- latest tow-boot 2021.10-005 on SPI
Kingston A2000 M.2 2280 NVME 1 To (one of the best supported drives from wiki list)

My problem : On boot, nvme is detected but I get a rescue console on every boot.

My "ugly" fix : 
modprobe -r nvme
modprobe nvme
exit console
I get a normal boot

On logs (with |grep -i nvme):

  Pinetab for sale w/ keyboard (Denmark, EU) [sold]
Posted by: Louis - 01-24-2023, 06:01 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTab - No Replies

Hi

I have a Pinetab for sale w/ keyboard. Charger included.

This device is in good condition and currently running SailfishOS.

If you are looking to try out Ubuntu Touch, SailishOS, Plamsa Mobile, Phosh (GNOME for mobile) or Postmarket OS this is the device. With mainline kernel support you are able to install a lot of systems like for years to come.

I' m based in Denmark and prefer to sell within the EU. I'll be in Brussels 2. Feb - 5. Feb. attending CHAOSScon and FOSDEM '23 if you have an interest in seeing it. I just need to know in advance.

If you have further questions please let me know.

  pinephone keyboard + dock question
Posted by: tuxcall - 01-24-2023, 11:48 AM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (7)

Hi!

i've recently gotten the pinephone keyboard

now i also have the dock that came with the pinephone.

The manual of the pinephone keyboard states to NOT charge through the pinephone usb port and only through  the keyboards usb charging port.

to use the dock you need to use the pinephone's usb and connect the charger to the dock. Which to me would be charging through the pinephone.
Which the manual warns against.

can you use the dock + the pinephone keyboard together or is this impossible?


  Mobian + phosh firefox ublock and other overlays display bugs
Posted by: tuxcall - 01-24-2023, 11:43 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

hi!

i've been trying my pinephone for a while now, and i've noticed that in firefox it's almost impossible to use overlay menu's

example:
-you open ublock (default installed) and the overlay menu just flickers or doesn't size right
-if you use the toolbar menu with alt and open one of submenus  like file or tools, you get the same flicker/non display

Is there a solution to this?
i really would like to use firefox with tight ublock measures but then i need to use the menu.


  Case?
Posted by: ty1911 - 01-23-2023, 08:04 PM - Forum: Pinecil Hardware and Accessories - Replies (1)

Hi everyone,
I have had my Pinecil for a few years now.  I use it when I am on the road when I need a soldering iron. I have an Etsy case which holds the iron, a spare tip, and the case doubles as a stand. I am looking for a case that I can store the same, but also store flux and solder. 
I was wondering what everyone else was using or can recommend. 

Thanks,
Alan

Does anyone is using RockPro64 to run Frigate NVR? Does it support hw decoding via patched FFMPEG and Coral TPU?
Thank you!


  Wifi adapter not found after update failed
Posted by: jojuma - 01-22-2023, 05:15 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTab - No Replies

Hello,

I'm running postmarketOS on my Pinetab. Today I ran updates in "Software" (I know, I should have done this in the terminal).
The PineTab froze while the updates where running. After plenty of time I decided to do a hard reset.
I was happy when it booted normally after that. But then I realized, I had no wifi due to no wifi adapter had been found.

Is there a way to "get it back" or do I have to reflash the whole OS?

Thanks!

UPDATE:
I reflashed postmarketOS. That seemed much easier than messing around with that. I probably can delete this thread then...
