  XLibre for Mobian
Posted by: Hiraghm - 06-29-2025, 12:38 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - No Replies

I've been running Mobian on my Pinephone for about 4 years now... maybe 5.
I prefer X11 to Wayland for my own reasons, so I'm looking to find out if I can port XLibre to Aarch64 Mobian.
XLibre looks like it will be supported and extended in future, whereas it looks like XOrg is either stalled or ending.

Has anyone tried it yet?

  FM? A future new PinePhone?
Posted by: jebez - 06-26-2025, 08:17 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (1)

Hi

I recently drowned my Samsung Galaxy Xcover Pro SM-G715FN/DS, the display not works...

Since I've Arch Linux KDE on PC (my config https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?...5#p2221235), I'm interested to the PinePhone Pro with Manjaro (based on Arch Linux) Plasma Mobile.

Is there a FM receiver? https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=10863

But the display is 1440x720, I'd like at least 1920x1080.
Also I'd like eSIM https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESIM instead of SIM card & its slot.

Will there be a future new PinePhone?

Thanks.


  Clamares password needed with new Mobian installation
Posted by: fauvetan - 06-25-2025, 03:01 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Hello,

I just try to install Mobian on my Pinephone using the dd’s method but when I put the SD card inside the phone and try to boot on it, I get the “Enter disk decryption passphrase” of Clamares. I read that “1234” is the default password, but it doesn’t work. Clamares tell me it’s a wrong password. 

I flashed my sd card many times, trying some tweeks, but the message still the same.


So, what can I do to bypass this situation?
Thank you.


  Pinecil v2 tip screw temperature
Posted by: Minuen - 06-23-2025, 06:38 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinecil - No Replies

I just recently got a Pinecil v2 and I want to make sure that my setup doesn't have issues. The two screws which hold the tip get hot enough to burn me if I brush them while rotating the pinecil during soldering. Do your screws get hot?

Cable: anker 100W silicone usb-c cable https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B093GGNRZM
Charging block: Apple 140W laptop charger https://www.apple.com/ca/shop/product/MW2M3AM/A/140w-usb-c-power-adapter
The device says it's getting a consistent 20V and has never posted a warning.
Firmware: v2.23-rc4
Tip: initially noticed with a ST-KU tip I got off Amazon but the original tip it shipped with also has this issue
Temps: 350-380C used while I was testing using lead free solder

Is this just something I need to be aware of and avoid touching? If so that's fine. If the entire tip is supposed to get hot it would make sense that the screws touching it also get hot.
Some searching suggests that it could be an issue with either my setup or some of the circuitry in the device and I don’t want to damage it.
