I am trying to install Debian Bullseye. I have Tow-Boot already installed to SPI.

From http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/b...rd-images/ I downloaded 'partition.img,gz' and 'firmware.pinebook-pro-rk3399.img.gz' and combined them as per the accompanying README:

Quote:[!] Detect network hardware
Some of your hardware needs non-free firmware files to operate. The firmware can be loaded from removable media such as a USB stick or floppy. The missing firmware files are:
brcm/brcmfmac43456-sdio.pine64,pinebook-pro.bin
brcm/brcmfmac43456-sdio.bin
If you have such media available now, insert it, and continue.
Load missing firmware from removable media? [Yes/No]

I'm working on OpenWrt for the Quartz64, not working yet the SATA and HDMI ports, although they are not strictly necessary to use OpenWrt.
Current build is based on patches from Peter Geis , main line kernel 5.18 and uboot v22.07-rc2.

I tried to install Waydroid on PostmarketOS on the multi-boot SD card, but I get the error message "device memory full" .

Is there a way to enlarge the memory of the PostmarketOS partition?

Hello!

I've seen a couple of threads asking how to get the AW-CM256SM combo wifi/bluetooth module working, but I haven't seen any conclusive cases of a user getting it running yet.  I'm in the same boat myself, but I think I'm making progress towards it.

I'm using Manjaro for ARM, the image specifically for the RockPro64.  I installed brcmfmac from the Arch repositories using yay, as I believe that's the correct driver for the module.  

"dmesg | grep SDIO" gives me this: "[     2.172676] mmc0: new ultra high speed SDF104 SDIO card at address 0001"

"dmesg | grep brcmfmac" returns the following: 
[    8.602310] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio for chip BCM4345/6

[    9.641432] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50

If I am understanding correctly then, the module is being detected on mmc0, and I do have the driver installed, but something isn't configured correctly.  Any ideas on what I need to do next?

Thanks in advance!

The thin black cover that the PinePhone comes with broke for me, so I wanted to buy a more sturdy cover.

I never use wireless charging and the fingerprint reader is expensive, so I went with the LoRa case since that interests me.

However, it seems even after I shut the phone down completely, the LoRa case continues to drain power. I can feel a faint warmth and the next day my phone has been completely dead multiple times.

I just wanted to warn people and I hope Pine64 or OS maintainers can find a fix. I think I'll put some tape over the pogo pins for now since I have no use for LoRa at the moment.

This is running on a Pro but it should run just fine for Pinephone. Spent most of my weekend working on this, the dot files are in the comments of the post.

This is running on Arch on my Pro. I basically whipped it up over the weekend. The dot files are in the comments there.

I was using Manjaro Phosh on a regular Pinephone until I recently received my Pinephone Pro. I decided to install Manjaro Phosh on the PPP, but am disappointed with the lack of battery life. Does Plasma perform better in this regard? Can anyone with experience with both share their observations about the pro's and con's of these two OS? Thanks in advance.

I have two 3Gig Pinephones.
Incidentally I had to replace the screen on the second one as soon as I got it!
This might be a bit unusual, but I want to use it as a mobile phone, rather than editing videos etc.!
I installed Arch, because it is lightweight, and only has what you need, rather than the kitchen sink. Also surely I should be able to go in and get things to work.
OK, so how do I get it to produce a noise I can hear when I get an incoming call or SMS?
There is a path to the ringtones:
/usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo
Lots of .oga files there, but they must all be recordings of silence!
I assume there is some way of waking them up, but what is it?
I have DanctNIX Tweaks installed. Nice GUI. It would be even nicer if it did something!
Please help me get these phones to make noises so that I know when I have a call, or SMS.
I do not require a full orchestra, just something loudly audible to attract my attention.

Hi all,

I have a PPP that doesn't seem to have the HDMI out functioning reliably. The secondary display "appears" for a split second then disappears, and this keeps repeating. (See gif below) The odd thing is that I was able to get it connected successfully on the first try, but afterwards nearly all attempts have led to this behaviour.

For reference here's a gif of the setting screen:

I'm running a new install of the latest mobian with phosh, although I get the same issue with arch (and with GNOME and other DE). Also this isn't a adapter/cable/monitor issue as I can get this configuration working with my laptop.
