When I access the datetimecontroller

As datetimecontroller.seconds() ;

In heartratecontroller. Cpp file it only gives me a static value as 32 always

Any solution?

Hey everyone,

So here's the issue:

TLDR: Shipping here from Pine64 is way too expensive, even for small items.

I put in an order for the USB-C pine phone adapter. They told me they wanted more money, on top of the $30 shipping fee initially charged.
I paid for the item and the shipping. I got an email from them asking for an additional $35 for a remote delivery fee. 
My town is an hour out of a major city up here in Canada. By Canadian standards, I'm not remote. 
I've decided to cancel my order and take my money elsewhere. 
The adapter is normally around $27. With shipping and the remote fee, it was going to total to around $100. 
I'm not spending that on a $30 adapter, no matter how good it may be. 
I'm going to keep looking for other companies to do business with.

Regards

Hi all,

While attempting to re-install Mobian, I believe I may have deleted ALL partitions on my PP64. I had previously installed Tow-Boot to the eMMC and all was well. Now, holding the <VOLUME UP> button while powering up and releasing the volume button after the second vibration, the blue LED illuminates for a second, followed immediately by the red LED which flashes 10 times (along with a vibration for each flash), then the phone powers off. The battery is fully charged, but this also occurs when trying to start the phone without the battery installed (USB cable only). The same thing occurs when holding <VOLUME DOWN> and power to attempt to boot from an SD card. I can't figure out how to do anything to correct this since the phone no longers stays powered on. TIA for any suggestions offered.

Specs: PP Beta/Manjaro Phosh Beta 29/PP keyboard

The icons of open apps on the home screen take up half the screen. Is there a way to reduce their size?

Also, rather than store the entire home directory, is there a way to backup custom settings i.e. custom keyboard shortcuts?

Thanks for any help.

Hi all,

I just noticed that I can no longer recieve SMS - I've already cleared messages via commandline (mmcli) and rebooted and then sent a new simple test message from another device (SMS, not MMS)... nothing.

Is SMS still working for others here on Mobian (latest updates installed here)...?

Thanks & Best Regards,

Hi,

recently received Pine64 Beta.  Went through the quick start guide which was fine until I got to this issue:

• If the phone is plugged on charge it works perfectly, the screen is visible and functional.
  
• But, if the phone - even if fully charged - is not plugged in, the screen fades to black in about less than second.  Touch the screen it opens, but it's barely enough time to choose either a number for the pin code or to tap an app icon.  It's functional but it so fast as disappearing, that the area of the screen being tapped is 'hit and miss'.  If that makes sense.
  

So i tried using the pine64 usb emmc adapter to flash manjaro to emmc, now the pbp will not power on at all no lights no screen on, nothing. help

Unicorn is a lightweight CPU Emulator Framework based on QEMU.

We’re porting a new operating system Apache NuttX RTOS to Pine64 PinePhone. And I wondered…

To make PinePhone testing easier… Can we emulate Arm64 PinePhone with Unicorn Emulator?

Let’s find out! In this article we’ll call Unicorn Emulator to…

1. Emulate Arm64 Machine Code

2. Attach Hooks to intercept Memory Access and Code Execution

3. Boot Apache NuttX RTOS in the emulator

4. Simulate the UART Controller for PinePhone

5. Track an Exception in Arm64 Memory Management

(Possibly) Emulate PinePhone with Unicorn Emulator

I've been troubleshooting two Pine64 2G LTS boards for several days now and I haven't been able to get either to boot. I've read the instructions on flashing an SD card and the troubleshooting section in the Getting Started section of the wiki. I've also read the relevant threads in the aptly named Useful Threads posts, yet I haven't gotten a board to boot yet.

I've used balenaEtcher to flash two, known good, SD cards with Armbian 22.11 Jammy XFCE. I also tried the CLI version on both SD cards for thoroughness sake. Still no dice. I flashed the devices on a Windows 10 machine and on a Ubuntu 22.04 machine with the same result. The same SD cards can successfully boot other SBCs I have. I've powered both boards with a known good bench top power supply via GPIO pins 1 and 3 and with a 5V 2A power adapter. I can't actually confirm that the power adapter is good because the LTS boards are the only devices I have that accept the barrel connector. But regardless of how I power the boards, a green power LED lights up. My bench top power supply says the LTS boards are pulling ~125mA if that helps troubleshoot. The same supply can power much hungrier dev boards I have.

I've used two, known good, HDMI monitors with two, known good, HDMI cables to see if screen resolution was the problem, but that still didn't work. I connected a known good Ethernet cable to both LTS boards and there is no activity on the pine 64 nor the port on the router. The same port and same cable plugged into other devices supplies Ethernet and lights up the jacks on both ends. I left a board on for a while and checked devices connected to my router just to see if it had an IP address, but no dice.

I even tried randomly pressing the power and reset buttons to see if that changed anything, but I'm seeing no signs of life from either of the boards I have. Since I can't even SSH into either device I've basically exhausted all the trouble shooting options I can think of. All the tools I'm using are working with other devices on my bench.

I tried flashing an SD card with Manjaro to see if it was an Armbian problem but couldn't get the installer to run on my Ubuntu machine. I intentionally buy two devices when bringing up new-to-me devices to rule out a DOA board. The fact that I have two boards that refuse to boot makes me think I'm doing something wrong. This isn't my first rodeo with open source hardware, but I'm out of ideas. Any troubleshooting suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
