I have a couple questions about Android.

1. It looks like the latest image for Android 9, SD card is from 2019. Have there been no updates since then? Or has support dropped off?

2. Is there any reason to choose an older version (7, 8)?

It looks like I have to do some work to install the Playstore, whichever version I use. I don't normally use Android but there are a few apps I would like to try. I might be able to set something up with a Linux distribution but it would probably be a lot more work than installing a couple of apps.

Hi,

has anyone successfully moved an eMMC 128 GB from a stock Pinebook Pro into a Pinebook 1080p to replace the stock 16 GB drive ? Are connectors compatible and would the older Pinebook recognize the full capacity ? According to specs, the Pinebook 1080p supports only up to 64 GB. New OS installation expected, that for sure, fine. 

Help appreciated, Peter

Unit was only lightly used and is in excellent condition.

Asking $200 with shipping included, includes power supply. Payment by paypal, US shipping only.

I am running the latest Manjaro phosh on a Pinephone plus a keyboard. The screen is in the portrait mode and I do not see any way to make it rotate to the landscape mode.

I saw at a Manjaro site that the auto-rotate feature had been removed.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

This may sound like an RTFM question, but the post install instructions say to go to settings->user, then click on the one user and change the password.

Problem is that there's no user section in settings, at least in Arch Plasma, though it does have a lockscreen pin setting, but that doesn't work. There are instructions for changing the password via terminal, so I'll prolly use that, but I'd kind like to change the user name as well, since using the default prolly isn't the most secure thing to do.

So, for someone that's never need to change, add or modify a user post install, how does one do that, or rather, how does one do that here, or is it just the same as any other Linux system (I figure there's plenty of instructions online for that)?

Hello all,

I've so far successfully flashed Wasp-OS OTA to my PineTime from Infinitime using nRF Connect, and this time I wanted to go back and try the latest version of Infinitime.  

After following this tutorial from the wiki and attempting to flash the reloader zip reloader-infinitime-recovery-0.14.1.zip, I have been stuck in DFU mode. nRF Connect freezes at 100%, and the log received an error for GATT connection timeout. I researched online and my issue seems consistent with what this tutorial warned ("Don't do this [update reloader zip] before updating the bootloader, otherwise your PineTime will freeze at the end of the process, and you will need to wait for the battery to go flat") 

For now, my device is stuck in factory reset mode with the pinecone, start message and arrow. Is my problem that I uploaded the reloader zip before updating the bootloader? How can I fix this?

Thanks for all your help!

I can't get Pinetime notifications to work with Pinephone.

• I tried Siglo but after messing around with it for a long time I finally realized that it only seems to flash firmware https://github.com/alexr4535/siglo/issues/109
  
• I've searched a lot in the forums and it seems from this 2021 thread that i need to compile Amazfish? https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=13159
  

Can I have Session or Signal working on this phone?

- I plug in the pine64 5amp power supply (checked with a multimeter that the power supply outputs 12 volts),
- no green light on the rockpro64 comes on, and no other lights;
- no booting;
- 0 peripherals connected.

I asked support about it, said that it's the "regulator" that's burned out. My warranty's expired.

Is this something I can repair/replace? I'm willing to buy a desoldering kit and replacement electrical components. I do have pine64's soldering iron.
