  Phosh 0.20 beta on mobian
Posted by: Anthony1224 - 06-10-2022, 07:43 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

To install phosh 0.20 beta on mobian you need to:

Go to https://repo.pureos.net/pureos/pool/main/p/phosh/ and download phosh_0.20.0~beta1-1pureos1_arm64.deb and phosh-mobile-tweaks_0.20.0~beta1-1pureos1_all.deb

Then cd into the directory you downloaded the files into (example: cd ~/Downloads)

Then run sudo dpkg -i *.deb then reboot

You should have phosh 0.20 on your pinephone! (tested on pinephone mobian ce)


  Dead Pro?
Posted by: Sohen - 06-10-2022, 07:17 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Hardware - Replies (2)

I have a pinephone pro that was working fine.  I left it alone for a few days and came back to a completely dead phone.  It won't charge.  I tried plugging it in overnight on a 5v charger and it didn't charge.  I tried pulling the sim's and using the RE button and nothing happens.  Is there anything I can do or am I in the send it back phase?


*EDIT - NEVERMIND*

I also have a community edition phone.  I swapped batteries and put the ce battery in the pro and it booted.  I put the dead pro battery in the ce and plugged it in and its charging.  What a weird problem to have.


  Has anyone tried Ubuntu 22.04 server yet?

I can't get my Quartz64 to boot, but interested if anyone has even attempted ubuntu server yet.


  Mid 2022: what is in your humble opinion the best working OS for the PinePro?
Posted by: walterbe - 06-10-2022, 11:02 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

Hi,

Have just got my PinebookPro back working after being broken for 6 months. Still has the default Manjaro distro. Has 800 updates and the updates fail. Not very enthusiastic to try to fix it. 

The current OS never worked great. Sound volume is extremely weak. And for some reason only 5Ghz wifi works.

Was thinking this is a good time to do a new OS installation. 

From the point of view that things work as good as possible after installation I would like opinions about what the most mature OS / less bad option available at this time for this hardware?


  No boot...power light shows green
Posted by: 98cwitr - 06-10-2022, 10:22 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Quartz64 - Replies (2)

My 4GB Model A came in today and I've got no boot activity. Tried with BAT jumper on and off, with and without sdcard in place. Possible DOA or is there a trick to this?


Exclamation Manjaro update to Kernel 5.18 breaks install
Posted by: as365n4 - 06-10-2022, 02:02 AM - Forum: Linux on Pine H64 - Replies (5)

Hi all,

I downloaded the Manjaro-ARM-minimal-pine-h64-22.04 from Manjaro and flashed it onto an 16GB SD-Card, followed all the on-screen setup instructions/questions, SD-Card got resized and System was up and running.

Next I did the update with pacman and it revoked and signed some keys and had 80something files to update, confirmed with Y and let it run.
After pacman was finished I did a reboot and ended up with a black screen.... Rolleyes 

Got the UART Cable out and recorded the following:

  Latest Manjaro-Phosh and Arch-Phosh won't boot
Posted by: grinzie - 06-09-2022, 02:36 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (6)

Yesterday I upgraded Arch-Phosh with "pacman -Syyu". After powering off and on (booting from SD via TowBoot), there was no splash screen, and the screen was not backlit.
Today, I burned the latest release (20220502) to the same SD; the phone booted fine. I was quickly notified of a Software update, so I used Software app to upgrade again, with the same result; after powering off and on, there was no splash screen, and the screen was not backlit.
I switched to Manjaro-Phosh SD and ran "pacman -Syyu" and got the same result.



Anybody got an ETA on resolution?
For now I will run Arch-Phosh 20220502. I will have to torch my Firefox profile since I was running Firefox 101 and will now be stuck with Firefox 97 (there is probably a cute way to make pacman upgrade only firefox and all of its dependencies, but a quick search yielded nothing, and upgrading just Firefox did not work).


  How to use bluetooth after flashing mynewt
Posted by: razrosman - 06-09-2022, 12:27 PM - Forum: Development Discussion on PineTime - No Replies

Hi,

I'm new to pinetime development, so I used @lupyuen manual and managed to flash the mynewt firmware over rust with Raspberry pie 3.

Now, I would like to use the bluetooth on the pinetime and connect it to a flutter application on my android device.

I managed to run the flutter application using flutblue and also manage to discover some bluetooth devices, but not the pinetime itself.

what am I missing?

Thanks,
Raz


  Temporary fix for Modem Not Coming Back on in SXMO Postmarketos Pinephone
Posted by: kebab - 06-09-2022, 11:27 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (2)

Hey,

I hope this script can be useful to someone, but basically the instructions are in the github.

Its a cron job that runs to check if the modem is there, and if it isn't there it will wake it up.

This should work on systemd, too, but it may need some tweaking, as I haven't tested it on systemd.
