| How to turn on Pinetab? |
|

Hello,
this has been discussed before and the solution was to do it like described here.
It is said:
Quote:If your PineTab is in unknown state or doesn't want to start: Press power button for 7-8s. It makes a sound and you know it's totally off. 3 seconds after, power button again for 2-3s and it will start to boot.
That doesn't work for me. I also don't hear anything when holding the power button for 7-8 seconds or more.
When I try to turn it on, I see the keyboard's lights turn on, so something happens. But the Pinetab won't boot.
I tried all combinations of pressing very short (1s), short(2-3s) or long (7-8s or more) but mostly nothing happens.
Sometimes it helps to plug in the charging cable. But even for that the Pinetab must be in a specific condition.
Sometimes it takes up to 20 minutes until I manage to turn the Pinetab on.
Are there any new understandings on how to turn that thing on?
Since it works after it was possible to turn it on, I don't think it's really broken.
Any ideas on how to turn it on the right way?

Hi all.
I want to invite to an unofficial Pine64 meeting in London.
Saturday 11th Feb in central London
(I will post a location shortly but wanted to get this out first, suggestions welcome)
GetTogether meeting
(If you could use this site to confirm attendance that would be great to get some feedback, but it's not mandatory of course)
This is not organised by the Pine64 team.
Everyone is welcome, either to show some of your gadgets or projects or just to see what others do.
I could bring the: - Pinebook (Pro)
- Pine Phone
- PineTime
- Pine Power
- PineBuds
- Pinenut
- Ox64
If anyone could bring other kit, that would be great.
Hope to see you soon.

| How to disassemble a Pinephone Keyboard? |

Hello, I have a Pinephone Keyboard that I am trying to open so I can replace the computer chip. Support said I would need to do this to fix it - the battery has stopped working and so has charging through the USB port.
Anyway. The means of its disassembly escape me. Using a tool I've been able to pry apart most of the bottom part of the plastic case, but the side by the hinge refuses to come apart. I can't reach the seam behind the hinge because, well, the hinge is in the way.
Can anyone who has taken a Pinephone Keyboard apart let me know how they did it? Thanks

I have been daily driving a PinePhone with Arch Linux and Phosh for over a year now. I wanted to make a post with my tweaks.
Device: PinePhone 32Gig
OS: Arch Linux Arm with Phosh
Phosh version 0.22 (EDIT: 0.22-0.23)
phosh - scaling
Code: sudo mkdir /etc/phosh/
sudo cp /usr/share/phosh/phoc.ini /etc/phosh/
sudo nano /etc/phosh/phoc.ini
# Un comment the DSI-1 output section:
[output:DSI-1]
scale = 2
# Change scale to desired value (ex: scale = 1.5 means 150%)
# Save and reboot
phosh - Mount SD
This should automatically done with portfolio-file-manager
Code: sudo pacman -S portfolio-file-manager
Code: #OLD WAY
sudo mkdir /home/SD
sudo chmod 777 /home/SD
sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/SD/
phosh - squeekboard - Custom Layout
Code: # see https://github.com/mikeshenson/Phosh-Squeekboard-Keyboard
phosh - App filter
Code: OFF
gsettings set sm.puri.phosh app-filter-mode '[]'
ON
gsettings set sm.puri.phosh app-filter-mode '["adaptive"]'
Code: # This can also be done with
sudo pacman -S danctnix-tweaks-app-phosh
phosh - Remove the vibrate on button press
#remove all unwanted sections
Code: sudo nano /usr/share/feedbackd/themes/pine64,pinephone.json
phosh - Desktop Icons (edit/add)
Code: # To add desktop icons (synchting)
cd /home/alarm/.local/share/applications
nano syncthing.desktop
#add these lines to syncthing.desktop

| Latest Manjaro Update fails HDMI |
|

After updating a Rock64 Ver. 2 board running Manjaro/Plasma, and running update, and then the obligatory reboot, the HDMI output was/is broken. The original system is as follows:
Operating System: Manjaro-ARM
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
Kernel Version: 5.17.1-4-MANJARO-ARM (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 4 × ARM Cortex-A53
Memory: 3.9 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mali450
I've downloaded the version labeled "Manjaro-ARM-gnome-rock64-22.06.img" and it creates the same issue. When I return to the older version HDMI is fine again. Then the system notifies that updates are required and the cycle begins again 
Anyone know of a solution?
As an update I've imaged the Armbian OS and booted from the SD fine. Then manually updated the system. Again it booted up fine. The only problem so far is the HDMI output flickering. It increases when system activity increases. For example; rolling the mouse over desktop icons will cause the screen to flicker. If the system sits idle the video stabilizes but if ANY activity is introduced, the flicker begins again. This makes it difficult to do anything with it. So in essence neither of these OS's are usable as indicated.

My PBP crashed during an upgrade and now the desktop/GUI won't load. I get an error message that says the current theme cannot be loaded and that the error is file:///use/share/sddm/themes/breath/Main.qml:26:1:module "org.kde.plasma.core" is not installed.
I went into a tty and did pacman -S to a lot of kde stuff (plasma-framework, then others when there was no change on reboot).
How do I either revert or replace what is bad to get my desktop back?

I think the title says it all. I tried to upgrade from the CLI, and when I tried to reboot, the phone won't. Furthermore: I tried connecting to my computer, then turning on the phone with the volume up button help down. The LED turns blue, indicating it's in mass storage mode, but the computer doesn't see it.
Also, I flashed the most recent installer, and pre-built image, to SD cards, but them in the phone, and neither are seen by the phone.

| Set Up more Alarms |

Hi guys,
I have a PineTime and want to set up more than one Alarm. I need a daily alarm to wake up but I need another one at the evening as a remeinder. Is there an option to set multiple alarms, maybe I am just blind and do not see in the menu?
If not I would try to change the menu to make more alarms possible and maybe also a "snooze" function for the alarm? I was looking at the development page and it looks quite complicated but I will try to read more about it.
In general it is a bautiful watch that covers everything I need, and it is light an tiny compared to my G-Shok with vibration Alarm 
Greetings
