  pmos/phosh edge update and audio disappears
Posted by: robthebold - 06-30-2022, 08:15 PM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - Replies (9)

I today updated pmos/phosh edge and now I don't have audio. There used to be an "Internal Speaker" option in the audio output of settings|sound, but now the only choice is "Analog Output - sun9i-hdmi." So this means no audio in/out for phone/web/apps/etc.

I thought it was this again: https://postmarketos.org/edge/2021/04/15...ire-pulse/
but that's not the fix this time. Pipewire-pulse doesn't seem to be the culprit. And I can pop in an old SD card with un-updated OS and audio is fine(ish) so it's not hardware suddenly flaking out.

Ideas? (Thanks in advance . . .)


  stopped receiving text messages
Posted by: jyoung - 06-30-2022, 06:46 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (11)

Hi, a few weeks ago I noticed that the chat app on my pinephone isn't getting texts anymore. I can still send them, but not recieve. I'm running mobian phosh on a pinephone beta. I haven't changed carrier or anything, and I haven't really changed anything on the phone. Does anyone know what might be going on?


  Rock 64 failure / kernel panic
Posted by: n0021913 - 06-30-2022, 09:59 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (2)

Hi, I am using Rock64 computers for a product and a few of them are failing in the field.  The symptom is that the computers lock up with a kernel panic (kernel paging request fail) and then do nothing until a power reset is performed.  It seems that the problem is memory related as we have started running memory tests on them and some of them fail the memory tests in as little as 5 minutes or less.  We have tried it with the 1 GB Rock64’s and also with the 2GB Rock64’s and they all exhibit the same failure issues.

Has anyone come across these issues? And is there any workaround or fix for it??


  Double Image on screen
Posted by: Arvis - 06-29-2022, 03:11 PM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (2)

My Pinephone with Convergence package arrived yesterday

I powered it on and the first couple of set up screens worked fine then the screen started flickering with a second fainter image appearing about 1cm above the main image on the screen. (eg the time is shown twice, with the fainter ghost image  above flickering up and down)

I managed to run the updates, and I charged the battery, and I have rebooted several times but it is still  the same

Has anyone met this problem or have any suggestions as to what is happening?

Thanks

  New developer trying to get going
Posted by: hocus - 06-28-2022, 11:51 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Hi:
So I have a lot of experience developing qt apps for X11, but am having a rough go of trying to get setup for Wayland. Can anyone point me to some resources for learning how to talk to the compositor (Phoc) for Mobian? I want to develop some custom (mostly keyboard) interfaces to help with a disability I have, but am having a hard time (e.g. sending keystrokes) finding examples and code which will help me... I have heard that all I need to do as an app developer is add a few flags to my qt app when I run it, but that advice  doesn't help me with talking to the compositor, and setting up my kits for development has been a nightmare. Also: are people using Qt to develop Pinephone apps? If not, what? Sorry if these questions have already been covered, I will scour the forums in a bit, and thanks for any help...


Question New user/phone here - initial update issues
Posted by: sexywheat - 06-28-2022, 11:41 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (2)

Hi!

New to the pinephone and this forum. I just got my new pinephone in the mail today and am running into some issues after trying to install initial updates.

Here's what happened:

  1. Installed initial ~1Gb software updates through Discover, it rebooted and installed them fine
  2. Discover said I had 600+ additional updates to install, but the size was 0 bytes
  3. Tried to install those multiple times. It rebooted, said it was installing updates but every time I re-opened Discover it said those 600+ 0 byte updates still needed to be installed
  4. Decided to update through cli instead and ran sudo pacman -Syu
  5. Updates installed, rebooted, but every time it restarts Discovery says that there was a "failed offline update" for the hwdata package. Offers the open discover or repair system buttons. The repair system button does nothing, and when I try to update through both discover and cli it says I'm "all up to date"
  6. However, the on-screen keyboard is now broken (it hangs for a few seconds when I type something, then closes, and then reopens but doesn't type anything)
Any advice on what I should do now?

Should I just re-flash this and start again, or is there some cli repair system package command I can run?

For the record, at some point I recall running

sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck

Due to an issue related to this

I've used KDE a lot but only on Debian-based systems so I'm a little fresh at this, thanks!

  no wakeup from deep-sleep
Posted by: jsch - 06-28-2022, 03:53 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (8)

Hello

On one out of ten occasions the phone does not wake up from deep sleep. This started one week ago. Is this a known issue (which has a workaround/cure)?
Hardware: OG-PP
OS: Bookworm

Pressing the power button (short), call the phone number, plug in power supply, nothing wakes the system up again.
Only a hard reboot (pressing the power button long) brings it bake to life.

last log entries:

Code:

  Motherboard layout information
Posted by: Perl6_user - 06-28-2022, 01:01 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

Is there a layout diagram, photo, or video online for the PBPro? Specifically I want to identify the EMMC chip and switch. Any links would be welcome. (I have searched, but without success.)

My PBPro has suddenly developed a non-booting problem, which looks as though it may be the one described in the documentation involving the EMMC and its associated switch position. Before I open it up and start fumbling around inside, I'd like to be sure I'm messing with the right parts.
