  QI charging back cover
Posted by: kmsgli - 05-22-2022, 05:42 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - No Replies

Has anyone solved the Qi charging back cover issue with the pro?

I think I have come up with an aftermarket battery expansion setup that could work great but the Pinephone Pro does not work with the Qi back cover. My Qi back cover works with my regular pinephone but will not charge with my Pro. I think its related to how far the pogo pins stick out on the Pro but I cant seem to confirm that.

Has anyone had any luck using the Qi back cover on the pro?

If I can get Qi charging working I believe I have a solution that a lot of people would be interested in to use the Pro as a daily since you either need working suspend or a huge battery to run it all day.

Thanks.


  Trouble building (& using) pinephone-keyboard tools
Posted by: 64_Tesseract - 05-22-2022, 12:18 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (6)

I'm trying to build the pinephone-keyboard package on PostmarketOS, so I can see the keyboard's battery with one of its commands. After installing php and gcc to solve the dependency errors I was getting, I got stuck on one I couldn't figure out:

Code:
In file included from i2c-inputd.c:22:
common.c:20:10: fatal error: linux/usbdevice_fs.h: No such file or directory

I did a search and found the file in a GitHub repo that's supposed to be a Linux kernel - I don't know much on the subject, but I assume this means getting the tools to compile will be more complicated than a simple apk install... Unless, by some miracle, make's just not finding the header file hidden in some system folder Undecided

Anyone got any ideas? Cheers

Question Mobile data suddenly gone
Posted by: epiii2 - 05-21-2022, 08:10 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (1)

I've been using my new PinePhone for about a week, and then this morning I noticed my mobile data connection wasn't working.  Calls and texts are still fine, but, no internet.  I don't know if it's a firmware/hardware/service issue, but I'm pretty sure it's not software because I've tried multiple OSs and they're all showing this problem now.

Poking around using typical Linux commands I see that the wwan0 interface is down, but I'm clueless about layers deeper than that, once it gets into modem territory.

Code:
    $ ip addr show
    1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
        link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
        inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
          valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 ::1/128 scope host
          valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    2: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:ba:7d:21:84:a4 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
        inet 192.168.1.124/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute wlan0
          valid_lft 3554sec preferred_lft 3554sec
        inet6 fe80::86f8:29c8:ddf7:df8b/64 scope link noprefixroute
          valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    3: wwan0: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
        link/none

Any ideas?  This is with Verizon in the US with a PinePhone revision 1.2b.


Sad Chatty can no longer start since the last update
Posted by: anonymous - 05-21-2022, 12:18 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (10)

Hello

I cannot read my SMS, Chatty doesn't open anymore since the last update (libpurple?). When I naively tried to run it in command line by entering "chatty", it complained about a missing shared library libjabber.so.0. What can I do to fix it? Where should I look for error logs?


  Pine64 3D printer based on Positron V3?
Posted by: poVoq - 05-21-2022, 11:50 AM - Forum: General - No Replies

https://github.com/KRALYN/PositronV3

This really nice and portable design of a 3D printer was released under open-source terms today.

Maybe Pine64 would be interested and producing and selling versions of it?

  New user. Very excited as this is my first linux phone...have a few questions
Posted by: 98cwitr - 05-20-2022, 07:34 PM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (4)

New PinePhone Pro arrived today, popped my Verizon SIM in and viola...worked like a champ. Tested SMS and phone calls with the wife, and all that worked. MMS isn't working, but I think the docs I read prepared me to expect that (if there is a workaround, I'm all ears).

Sadly, I can't find any audio files preloaded for things like ringtones or wakeup alarms, so I'm trying to drop some music onto it. Using Ubuntu Desktop and not sure how to mount the phone (connected usb->usb-c). How can I mount the phone to transfer files?

Also, what's the camera app? I don't see a way to take pics. Thanks for all the community is doing! Looking forward to learning a lot and getting my feet wet.


  Cannot find "-" on the pinephone keyboard
Posted by: gilwood - 05-20-2022, 11:40 AM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (3)

I have tried all the left Shift + Fn + all the F1-F10 keys and cannot find a "-". The use of F5 or F6 produce the "~". The use of F7 or F9 produce the "_". The use of the F8 or F10 produce the "+". Finally, the use of F1 or F2 produce the "|". Everything else on the keyboard appears to work as well as the charging and disconnect of my pinephone from charging using the keyboard battery. Am I overlooking something and why is there redundancy in some of the symbols produced using the F keys? Any help is appreciated. Thanks


  PPP as daily device
Posted by: Chief - 05-20-2022, 06:22 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (5)

I have made the move to PPP as a daily device. It works well and the only issues at this time are battery consumption and the device microphone is crappy. Easily overcome by always having my small headset attached and sound is fine. Since camera's dont operate (software?) I shut the switches off and I also turn off Bluetooth to conserve power. Although I have tow-boot installed to spi there is still an issue with device sleeping and not waking up regardless of power settings.
Edit:
Calls still dont work properly because of sound issues.
