Hi guys, i installed lakka on my pine64 but i don't have any sound via hdmi port, can you fix it? 

Thanks

I'm trying to do

Suppose we’re creating our own Operating System (non-Linux) for PinePhone…

-  What’s the File Format?

-  Where in RAM should it run?

-  Can we make a microSD that will boot our OS?

-  What happens when PinePhone powers on? (U-Boot)

This article explains how we ported Apache NuttX RTOS to PinePhone. And we’ll answer the questions along the way!

PinePhone boots Apache NuttX RTOS

Hi all,

I have this issue when starting Arch Plasma on Sd card on pinephone: when I'm on the pin screen, I insert it and then it restarts automatically. It does the same thing again and again.

Do you know any solution with this?

Thanks so much.

Do we have a date or time when the design flaw of the battery/keyboard and usb-c connector usage getting fixed so we can use the usb-c while the phone is in the keyboard case?

where can i find complete specification of this product?
i want it to work well with my ppp and mobian.
i 'm not a good developper but want to practice to firmware and driver development .
but first i think i need good understanding of this hardware.

for now i clarify the structure of usb tree :
usbA ports numbered from vga port to sdcar reader A1,A2,A3
linux bus 5
 -> Vialab usb2 hub 4ports Vendor=2109 ProdID=2817
    -> port1 directly connected to physical port A2
    -> port2 directly connected to physical port A1
    -> port3 ?
    -> port4 conected to Terminus hub 4 ports Vendor=1a40 ProdID=0801
        -> port1 directly connected to physical port A3
        -> port2 ?
        -> port3 ?
        -> port4 terminus hub 4p Vendor=1a40 ProdID=0801
            ->port1 directly connected to physical SDcard port
            ->port2 directly connected to physical microSD port
            ->port3 fresco logic ( it6564?) hdmi/vga convertor Vendor=1d5c ProdID=7102
                            ^seems to have a firmware is it possible to flash ?
            ->port4 CMX sound card conected to audio jack Vendor=2000 ProdID=dd00

linux bus 6
 -> vialab usb3 hub 4p
    -> port1 ?
    -> port2 ?
    -> port3 eth adapter rtl8153 0bda:8153
    -> port4 ?

how i named the ports ; from left to right facing the ports
jack, sdcard/microsdcard, usbc 2, usbc 1, usba 3, usba2, usba1, vga, hdmi, usbc pd Femal, usbc pd male.

i don't know where shoud be mentioned the sound card to send audio thrue the HDMI. is it an interface of the it6564.
maybe it required to send specific encoded sound to specific it6564 interface?

is anyone have a photo of the interior of the docking station ?

Hi all,

I’ve got U-Boot on my PBP, Tow-Boot on my Pinephone & I’m looking for opinions on which you prefer & why.

I wanted a smaller pinebook if I ever were to get one...

Aka, 10.1 inch, not the 14 inch one.

Just curious

I don't expect it to be blazing fast.

Hello,

Just got a used pinebook pro. It came with postmarket OS so I tried to install Manjaro.

I did the following:
Download the latest Manjaro iso 
Burned it to a USB stick
Booted into Manjaro and installed into the USD. Booted again.
Used pacman to install manjaro-arm-flasher. Run manjaro-arm-flasher. 
Selected pbpro, KDE Plasma Edition, Version 22.04 if I recall correctly.
Then, selected mmcblk2, then flashed correctly.
Then when I try to boot from mmc y get red and green light flashing.

Pictures below show what I see when I boot before green and red flash.



Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Gday,

I've just laid my hands on a pinecil v2.  I have only the use of one hand due to a disabilty and started thinking whether I might be able to program some features to make soldering easier for me.  I heard someone say that there is maybe bluetooth connectivity in the unit.  Could the following scenario be possible? 
Turn the iron on and off via a remote switch?  I'm thinking I could use a "third-hand" of some kind to posistion the iron correctly and then be able to start it heating without  touching it.  I could then feed solder to a joint with me good hand.   And being able to turn it off again would be good for safety.  A bit  slow and clumsy I know but it's all i can think of fore the moment.  I've got one of the ratchet gun feeders from the like of bang good but it's note quite delicat enough and I don't have the budget at the moment for the higher end autofeeding stations.

I'd welcome some suggestions if anybody has any ideas,

Cheers
John
