| phone does not ring (when sleeping) |

My phone (OG PP) is no longer ringing reliable.
If the pone is already up (awake), then there is not issue perceived.
But if it is sleeping, then it it seldom ringing if called. The phone is waking up, hence I don't assume an issue w/ cell or modem.
I tried to tweak one parameter from eg25-manager, not sure if this is the right approach.
The line
Code: { cmd = "QCFG", subcmd = "urc/ri/ring", expect = "\"pulse\",120,1000,5000,\"off\",1" },
in /usr/share/eg25-manager/pine64,pinephone-1.2.toml
was changed to
Code: { cmd = "QCFG", subcmd = "urc/ri/ring", expect = "\"pulse\",120,1000,5000,\"off\",3" },

PinePhone Pro working |

Hi all,
I've just got around after months of inaction to doing the initial set up of my PinePhone Pro and installing the latest nightly (20220925) of Manjaro Phosh.
Install was fine, and flashing the emmc was fine. As to was installing updates from the UI - an improvement over the original PinePhone. One hardware oddity I thought I'd ask about here though...
I have the USB-C dongle from the original PinePhone. This worked fine for both a basic USB keyboard, HDMI to a monitor, and as a Network adapter on the old PinePhone.
On the PinePhone Pro though it appears that although the Pro is charging fine (at max 2 Amps too!), the USB keyboard is not receiving power and doesn't work, and the LAN connector although lighting up doesn't seem to be configured to be used by default on the PinePhone Pro. (No 'LAN' connection by default in the network settings, and no IP assigned).
Does anyone know the magic incantation to get the USB keyboard and the Network adapter working with the Pro please? I'd ideally like to be able to look cool on the train and edit code with a usb keyboard attached to the PinePhone Pro whilst placed on a stand I have! (random use case, I realise!). And Not to have to buy the keyboard case (although it does look cool to be fair).
This dongle is not mentioned on the PinePhone Pro wiki page alongside the other adapters specifically for the Pro, so I'm not sure if it's even meant to work.
I've not tested HDMI yet but plan to next weekend. (I'll probably need to do that to see all of the Advanced Network Configuration apps UI! LOL.)
All in all it's a little easier to get started with than the original PinePhone I think. The speed of the device feels infinitely better too - I'm really looking forward to trying it in anger. When I relocate my spare SIM I'll test it for calls and general use too and do a vlog episode on it for my channel. It'll be heavily caveated that this is not a mainstream device, don't worry!
Thanks for making the PinePhone Pro, and I'll report back with any further problems/solutions/suggestions as I find them!

| Hibernation and Speaker Sound Issues, First Month of PBP |
|

Hello everyone,
I am just checking in after a month or two of having my PBP, from the 6/22 batch. Please feel free to skip to the TL;DR.
Currently, I am running a Gentoo system, with TowBoot and then systemd-boot to boot. Initially, it was quite painful getting used to ARM64, as I have only installed Gentoo itself a couple of times, and that alone can be a bit tough. But, as all Gentoo users know: once you get settled into your installation, not much can go wrong. I really can't complain about this laptop (except for 2 things, which I'll get to later, but you can probably guess from the title of this thread), I love the battery life, and the build quality of the laptop as well. The laptop is also the right shape and size and weight to be travel worthy.
Besides the PinePhone, I haven't really got any experience with ARM, but my impression of it is very positive. I really like my PBP! 
However, things are not perfect in my experience. I have to keep the sound off because of the issue with the speakers that is documented here: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8242
And I also haven't been able to get hibernation completely working. I am not sure of the cause of that issue, though.
I was hoping maybe somebody here would be able to give some insight to those two problems, it seemed like at least the speaker whine was able to be fixed a little, but I am not very hardware-inclined, so I'd ask for any fix to be dumbed down for me.
TL;DR very happy with the PBP running Gentoo, but I would like some help with the speakers and hibernation situation

| Battery meter slowly reducing under keyboard charger |

I have a new pinephone keyboard that I am using with Manjaro (5.19.8-1-MANJARO-ARM)
The keyboard works and the phone says that it is charging the internal battery, but often the battery meter on the phone slowly drops to zero.
I have a script on boot to update
Code: /sys/class/power_supply/rk818-usb/input_current_limit
and I am setting it to 3000000. The value remains. It is not changed by other processes and this does not fix the charging issue. Changing the value seems to have no effect.
The keyboard battery seems like it is charging normally
Code: sudo ppkb-i2c-charger-ctl info -v
Charger: Full ( chg_end)
Button: 00 ( btn_not_press)
0x70: 19
V=4197 mV (OCV 4214 mV) I=-6 mA
Rebooting does not fix the issue. After the internal battery meter reached 0% I tried removing the phone from the keyboard case. Despite reporting 0% battery, the phone continues to operate. It still reports the battery as 'charging'.
The phone is also getting very hot, under the EG-25G shield.
Here are some values reported that could be of use
Code: sudo cat /sys/class/power_supply/rk818-battery/charge_counter
156
sudo cat /sys/class/power_supply/rk818-battery/voltage_now
3534000
sudo cat /sys/class/power_supply/rk818-battery/current_now
-1129000
My issue does not seem to be the same as any of the issues reported at

| Tow Boot install help |

Hello, folks... I've been reading https://tow-boot.org/devices/pine64-pinebookPro.html to attempt installing Tow Boot to the SPI. I wrote spi-installer.img to an SD card, but when I boot the PBP with that SD card installed, Tow Boot doesn't show anything.
It just boots into the OS I have installed on eMMC. I can insert another OS, written to an SD Card and the PBP boots into THAT, but it won't boot into the spi-installer.img written to an SD Card.
Am I missing a step to tell U-Boot to boot from that spi-installer.img SD Card? Or am I not grasping something else???

Hello everyone. I need to do a fresh reinstall of Mobian. Rather than ask just for my own benefit now, I thought it might be useful to have an ongoing thread where we can confirm the latest reliable builds. The Mobian Team continues to make great progress but sometimes updates go sideways for reasons no one could have predicted. Thank you in advance to everyone for your contributions.

| Outgoing audio in phone calls gone |

Hi,
I recently purchased a PinePhone Pro. Initially, not much seemed to work properly, but this was greatly improved by changing to Arch Linux with Phosh.
That worked well until an update about a week ago, when I lost outgoing audio on phone calls. In subsequent updates, I've also lost incoming audio and then regained that in further updates, but never regained outgoing audio.
I've tried using the Sound Recording app, and that works, so the microphone must be working.
I'm fairly new to this. My experience with Linux has been with Raspberry Pi over a number of years. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I'm trying to use this as my daily phone, so phone calls are very important!
Thanks for any help you can give.

I can't set the default apps in settings; they're all grayed out. Also, text files are not even recognized when I click on one in Portfolio.
Anyone know the secret to getting this stuff working as it should?
[edit] I should clarify that this is on Phosh.
