Question Problem with booting from SD card. Several errors
Posted by: LittleStone - 09-04-2022, 02:34 PM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - No Replies

I’m trying my luck here in getting help with the issues on my PP og:

I was updating manjaro phosh from v25 to 26, when autosuspend kicked in and the screen didn’t come back. I turned the phone off to early and now I get the following error and the os doesn’t boot:





Quote:[0555641] lima ic40000.gpu: dev_pm_opp_set_regulators: no regulator (mali) found: -19
[2730020] pinephone-keyboard 2-0015: error: ENXIO: Failes to read device ID

[9.936683] debugfs: File ‘Bluetooth Playback’ in directory ‘dapm’ already present!
[9.956676] debugfs: File ‘Bluetooth Capture’ in directory ‘dapm’ already present!





I'm running the OS from the SD-Card. I tried to flash other SDCards with Manjaro and other OSes and either I get similar errors and the OS does not boot or if it does boot after a long time, there are other issues. The OS from the eMMC runs without a Problem, as far a as I can tell. So I think there is something messed up with booting from SD in general.

Thanks for your help!


  Tow-boot on Pinephone beta edition
Posted by: saddamus - 09-04-2022, 02:39 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (10)

Did anyone managed to make tow-boot working on pinephone beta edition ?
I tried releases for pinephone and pinephone pro, flashing to SD card, but none of them was working. There is no reaction on pressing power button - not even blinking led light. I wanted to test Mobian, but there is no way without working tow-boot.

  Enable 'upcoming-events' on Mobian/Phosh
Posted by: Korac - 09-03-2022, 08:21 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (3)

Hey folks,

Is anybody familiar with how to enable the Calendar/Upcoming Events plugins in Phosh via gsettings? (Highlighted in: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/pho...gs/v0.21.0)

The switch to enable is supposed to be in phosh-mobile-settings (https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-mobile-settings) as of v0.21.0 but under Widgets, there are no buttons and only 'Additional widgets for the lock screen. This feature is experimental.' is displayed. I'm thinking enabling via gsettings might just be easier at this point.

I'm running Phosh 0.21.0 and Phoc 0.21.1 on Mobian.

Thanks!


Heart Now better battery life or power management?
Posted by: KC9UDX - 09-03-2022, 07:52 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (5)

I noticed that the mainboard in the Pinebook Pro that I received in August 2022 is different than the other earlier Pinebooks Pro that I have.  But I didn't look for anything else different.  I haven't read any accurate reports of things changed.

But I have noticed that battery life is greatly improved.  Or charging or usage has improved, I don't know which.  Even with the display brightness turned all the way up, the battery remains full no matter what I'm doing.

This isn't a software improvement, I don't think.  I'm running NetBSD 9.3


  Can't get to usable. Hardware issue?
Posted by: chootsmagoots - 09-03-2022, 07:51 PM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (2)

Hello, 

I've done all the googling, I've tried all the things, but there are really very few options I can find, and some big walls in my flow. I've really managed no progress since receiving the device. 

On the factory OS, I inevitably encounter a system freeze. Timing wise, most notably, always before a complete download of updates can be completed. 

In attempting to simply use a different OS, I'm fairly confident I've created a bootable microSD, but have no alternative way to verify this. I've run into other threads suggesting that the device may continue to boot from factory install on eMMC until updates are completed, but to ...loop back... to earlier, I can't download all updates, much less install them. I did manage to complete installation from shipping state to install on eMMC, perhaps I'd be in better shape had I not. 

One theory I have is that my CPU is overheating, and I have a hardware issue, but I want to make a forum post before I go bugging pine for replacement hardware... shipping time... And I'm probably wrong anyway, but I have no idea what to do. 

Thanks in advance


  Auto start application on Phosh login
Posted by: Zebulon Walton - 09-03-2022, 06:56 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (8)

How do you set up an application to run automatically when logging into Phosh? I don't see anything in Settings about auto-starting applications at login and don't see anything obvious under .local or .config.

  Problems after Tow-Boot
Posted by: Dinosaur1946 - 09-02-2022, 09:27 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

Hi All

Been using the Pinephone daily for some time now, and also daily updates and upgrades.
About 2 months ago I started having problems after updates, so I bit the bullet and went for
a re-write of the image to the latest.

Soon discovered that Tow-Boot was now needed.
Installed as per instructions and tried it.
The main problem was that opening settings menu worked, but as soon as I selected say "Wifi",
the settings menu would close and the Wifi settings would not come up.

The only was I could get my phone back, was to install an image from May 2022 which didn't require Tow-Boot
and all worked correctly again.

However the upgrades are starting to add up to about 475, so I am sure that if I upgrade the onboard emmc
the same problem will come back.

This time I am trying to install the latest image on the micro SD to prove or find a solution to this issue.
The procedure I followed:
Wrote Tow-Boot to on board emmc. (the May image still works correctly after that) using balena Etcher
Wrote 20220821.img.gz firstly to the SD with the PC.
Booted by holding Volume down and tested to find the same problem still exists.

Then wrote the same image to the SD plugged into the phone, same problem STILL.

Here is what I don't get:
I have a stock standard PP64 phone that has the touch screen replaced (by me) that works perfectly on May 2022 images.
I write a verified image to either the phone or SD and it always fails with the same problem.

Then someone wrote about Enabling Animations (probably different issue) but the first step, Settings> Accessibility just closes
the Settings menu again. Some Settings sub menu's do work (Network for example) but 95% of them just close the Settings menu.

I can't update or upgrade as the Wifi has not been initialized.

Anybody have any ideas ?

Regards
