  UBoot in updates - Has boot sequence changed?
Posted by: tckosvic - 02-13-2022, 07:14 PM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (2)

manjaro-phosh ----- As I noticed, the latest updates of this afternoon included UBoot files.  Does anyone know whether system boot sequence has changed in any manner due to these updates?

Another question -- where do you see what the new updates were and what was their intention to accomplish?  

Also -- do new updates move your system to one of the development release levels or a new "beta XX" release level?

thanks for any input?  Particularly interested in what was changed in boot and perhaps charging logic.  That really need some attention.  Costing me and probably alot of other people many hours.

thanks,    tom kosvic


  External Antenna port daily driver on Verizon
Posted by: Billthompson - 02-13-2022, 05:20 PM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (6)

Hey guys, just found the Pine phone!!!  Never knew they existed as an ubuntu user for years.  

Does anyone know how I can install an external antenna port for voice and data?  

The purpose of this would be to move the emissions away from user and gain decibels.  No passive antenna boosters.   Our old Samsung S4's have R1 and R2 ports in the back we have been plugging into with an adapter to fme and wilson antenna.  Its awesome, when not plugged in the phone uses internal antennas like everyone else when plugged in it moves signal away from user with an appreciable gain in range and performance.   Sadly Verizon is shutting down voice on anything below a samsung S5.  Nothing I can find newer than s4 has such a feature.

https://www.telcoantennas.com.au/patch-l...-galaxy-s4

I have seen posts here of guys installing external gps antenna, and would love to hear any thoughts on accomplishing this.  Perhaps a pigtail wired in and a custom case?  new antenna conectors?


Thank you so much!


  Will the PineTime have a timer for the Pomodoro technique?
Posted by: bosi564 - 02-13-2022, 12:50 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTime - Replies (3)

The title of the post says it all I guess. I'm interested in a Pomodoro style timer which vibrates (to avoid annoying people) every X minutes.

I have a sealed version with InfiniTime 1.2.0, but if someone experienced says for example that on Wasp-os it's easy to write the program yourself, I can try to switch to it.


  keyboard and usb ports not working
Posted by: User 24565 - 02-13-2022, 12:44 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (3)

Hi there,

Looking to see if there are any troubleshooting ideas i've missed.

I have a pinebook pro where I turn it on and the os loads but the keyboard and usb ports aren't working. Originally they worked but over time it seemed like it would take longer and longer for the keyboard to start working, after a while I had to wait a few minutes for any keys to function.

Now, only the power button works. I can have it sit all day and the keyboard or usb ports don't work, thus I can't even try an external keyboard. This is both on battery and plugged in.

I've tried loading different distros on sd card, took the back off and reattached the keyboard cable. I can't see any signs of damage anywhere.

Any suggestions?

Right now i feel like it's done.

thanks


Big Grin troubleshooting Chatty / modem? no SMS outbound
Posted by: vap0rtranz - 02-13-2022, 11:26 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (5)

Any pointers on troubleshooting a modem that keeps unregistering?

I switched to USMobile SIM and cannot send SMS / MMS.  SMS & MMS _inbound_ does work (Yes, MMS in Chatty! Big Grin ) and calls _do_ work inbound & outbound (voice is loud & clear!). 

Just SMS / MMS outbound is NOT working.  And when I try outbound, the modem goes back to "Unregistered", searching, and re-registers; but the "sent" SMS is never received ... logs make it sound like the modem is being rejected.

When I put this USMobile SIM into my daily driver (a MotoG8 running stock Android), everything works.  So it's not a borked SIM. 

One odd thing: my Moto8G modem detects this SIM's cellular network as "T-Mobile", but the APN & MMSC details in Android do indeed match USMobile's website for Androids.  Those APN & MMSC details are what I have setup in Mobian Bookworm.

I've put ModemManager into debug mode but don't really know what to look for ... and perhaps debug is overkill.  Did I miss something obvious in setting up USMobile?

Logs that repeat are below that have rejects in them:

  no screen rotation on pinephone pro with postmarketOS + phosh
Posted by: elode - 02-13-2022, 10:11 AM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - Replies (2)

I just installed postmarketos/phosh on my pinephone pro and I don't see any way to rotate the screen. Is it possible? I read the previous posts on the subject but I didn't understand.
Maybe I've already done something stupid :/
Any help would be appreciated Smile

  NAS Setup: Hdds PSU external power option
Posted by: Robotik - 02-13-2022, 09:22 AM - Forum: RockPro64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (1)

Good day Everyone.

I decided to intall a 6 SATA Drive card and pack 6 2.5'' hdds in the NAS case the problem is that the Sata power dapter can only supply enought power for 2 drives.

I am looking for recomendations to supply power to the four remaining drives.

Until know I have been uing a USB to Sata converted connected to a fast phone charger. It works but from time to time a drive disappears, no doubt I am exceding the USB current settings. Hence I am looking for something that can supply more current to get my Hdds up and running.

I did used a 12V/5V 2A USB to IDE/SATA Power Supply Adapter For Hard Drive HDD CD-ROM Tool; of course if end up exploting after a few minute. RockPro survided

I attached a few pictures of the rack for refence. Plush blanket great for antistatic I know (Not!) YOLO

SATA PCIE hardware used :

BEYIMEI PCIE 4x SATA card 6 ports, 6 Gbit / s SATA 3.0, boot as System Diskette, Support 6 SATA 3.0 Devices, with 6 SATA cables and a 15pin SATA to 4SATA Power Distribution Cable(ASM1166)

Any suggestions?

Question Phone call with the pinephone pro
Posted by: dfs - 02-13-2022, 08:33 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (5)

Hi everyone; long time lurker but it's my first post here. I got a pinephone pro and none of the distributions I tried were able to make a phone call. I tried (in their posh/plasma versions); Manjaro, Mobian, Arch and Postmarketos. While PostmarketOS make it clear phonecalls are broken, I saw here and there people saying the phonecalls were working in the others I tested (while not explaining how...).

Phonecalls do work as expected on my original pinephone with the same sim card.

Did I miss something ? A new setting or package to update ? Updating a firmware like the modem? The more I search and test the more others workings feature are breaking Wink

any help or explaination would be awesome. even if it's to tell me it never worked; then I could stop searching and just wait for a release claming it fixed it ^^'.

thanks everyone
