I've had my PinePhone for quite a while, but only recently got a SIM for it. Calling and receiving calls is not working, I was told to change from ofono to ModemManager with this command:

sudo systemctl disable --now ofono ofonoctl && sudo systemctl enable --now ModemManager

Terminal accepted the command, but calling and receiving calls still doesn't work. Oddly when calling the PinePhone the screen will briefly dim in sync with each call ring heard in the calling phone.

In the GUI settings looks like this:

SIM 0 - SIM Details

Operator Name - T-Mobile

Modem Details

Enabled - true

State - Disabled

Failure Reason - No error

This is the standard PinePhone current edition shipping stock with Manjaro.

Mobian's default image viewer is sluggishly slow.  Pictures taken in megapixles take a long time to show.   Does  a touch friendly  fast image viewer exist?

Anyone have an app to power on and control the fan in Android as the same way like Linux?


Thank you!!!

Geary quit downloading email from my Gmail account on both Manjaro and Arch, reporting a keyring error and asking for a password.  Neither my login password nor my Gmail password was satisfactory. It used to work. I renamed Default_keyring.keyring in .local/share/keyrings. But no joy.  Then I tried sudo pacman-key --init and then sudo pacman-key --populate. But still no joy. Advice?

Crap. I made it worse. Now I can't get into Arch anymore. I never changed alarm's publically published password. It must have been the pacman-key commands.

Hello.

I am thinking about buying a PinePhone, but I have one question. It looks like the firmware for the wifi used in PinePhone is closed-source. There are wifi cards with open-source firmware (for example, in debian, there is package firmware-ath9k-htc with such open-source firmware). Why is this card not used in PinePhone instead?

When I tried to update Manjaro I get an error; 
fail to prepare transaction

conflicting dependencies: -tip and power -profiles-daemon are in conflict

Any suggestions? 

I can't get the sd or USB drives to mount or be recognized.

I was going to try out PostmarketOS on my RockPro64 today. Burned the image to an SD and it boots fine. It doesn't have a DE installed by default, which is fine, so I installed Mate. Question is what command do I use to get it to use Mate instead of booting into a console ?

Forgive me if this has already been addressed but I have been searching everywhere for a week or so and haven't found a solution that was provided that works in my case.

Got my PinePhone Pro Explorer Edition and have been excited to try it outside of some funkiness as to be expected with a phone in this state of its like. The frustrating thing is everyone apparently can easily swap SD cards with new distros and explore! I can not.

I installed balenaEtcher and downloaded Ubports/Arch Phosh/Jump drive to various SD Cards. Tried this process from a Windows machine and also a Linux machine. When inserted into the PinePhone Pro the device doesn't boot/light up/vibrate or give any indication it is being turned on.

It appears to be turning on because to get the PinePhone Pro to turn on after the SD card is removed I have to remove/reseat the battery then press the power button.

When the card is inserted after the phone is booted I can run "sudo lsblk" and I can see that any of the test drives are available.


Any help would be much appreciated.

So I have my PPP in the keyboard case, and the keyboard is working :-)

I have connected the keyboard to a power supply.

The battery indicator at the top right of the menu bar is showing not charging (63%).

"cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/status" shows Discharging
"cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity" shows 63

"cat /sys/class/power_supply/ip5xxx-charger/status" shows Charging
"cat /sys/class/power_supply/ip5xxx-charger/capacity" shows 81

So my assumption is that the keyboard case is charging itself while the phone is running on it's internal battery - would that be correct?
