| Mute function on calls? |
|

Hello All,
Will try again here.
Do any of the Pinephone releases have the mute mic function working?
If not any idea when?
So far I have tried Manjaro Posh. and KDE with no luck. I am off to Mobian next
Really did not have to run down the entire list of every release.
I see various release charts with features that work or do not work in various places.
Is there one official go to place for this with status listed?
I also saw "we have Pulse Audio to thank for this".
Are there any known verified workarounds?
thanks!
sbt
Update (well Mobian did not go well, not trying that again, almost bricked my phone).

| Second USB3 port as OTG |
|

Hello everyone!
According Wiki the USB3 Port on RockPro64 could be used as an OTG port.
I'm using Type C port for OTG device pretty succesfully, however there is a demand on having two OTG Ports simultaneously.
Till now I've managed to switch USB3 port into OTG mode with editing device tree over dtedit command where following string was set from "host" to "otg":
Code: usb1 {
compatible = "rockchip,rk3399-dwc3";
clocks = <0x8 0x82 0x8 0x84 0x8 0xf7 0x8 0xf9>;
clock-names = "ref_clk", "suspend_clk", "bus_clk", "grf_clk";
power-domains = <0x15 0x18>;
resets = <0x8 0x126>;
reset-names = "usb3-otg";
#address-cells = <0x2>;
#size-cells = <0x2>;
ranges;
status = "okay";
phandle = <0xf1>;
dwc3@fe900000 {
compatible = "snps,dwc3";
reg = <0x0 0xfe900000 0x0 0x100000>;
interrupts = <0x0 0x6e 0x4 0x0>;
dr_mode = "otg";
phys = <0x2b 0x2c>;
phy-names = "usb2-phy", "usb3-phy";
phy_type = "utmi_wide";
snps,dis_enblslpm_quirk;
snps,dis-u2-freeclk-exists-quirk;
snps,dis_u2_susphy_quirk;
snps,dis-del-phy-power-chg-quirk;
snps,tx-ipgap-linecheck-dis-quirk;
snps,xhci-slow-suspend-quirk;
snps,xhci-trb-ent-quirk;
snps,usb3-warm-reset-on-resume-quirk;
status = "okay";
phandle = <0xf2>;
};
};
After that I can see the second device under /sys/class/udc:
Code: rock64@rockpro64:~$ ls /sys/class/udc
fe800000.dwc3 fe900000.dwc3
However the second USB3 device (fe900000.dwc) doesn't work same as Type C port, no device appears there at all (I'm setting it as a mass storage).
So my question is:
is it generally a good idea to use two USB3 ports as OTG devices simultaneously?
If so, what could lack in setting it up?

| How to disable automatic update checks |
|

I have just received a new PinePhone, and the first time I connected it to the Internet, it immediately showed me that (software) updates are available. The phone didn't install the updates before I asked to do so, but still, I was actually quite disappointed with this behavior, especially in a privacy and security oriented phone. I don't want the phone to do anything on the Internet before I explicitly request to do so. Even if it does not install the updates, just checks for them, this still transfers data over the Internet, which may be undesirable in certain cases.
This time I installed the updates (which also created quite a severe bug, see below), but I don't want to have any automatic update checks in the future.
So, my first question is: how do I disable automatic checks for updates on the default OS (if I understand correctly, this is manjaro)?
Second, more details about the bug: sometimes, when I turn off the screen using the button on the side, and then turn on the screen again, instead of a PIN prompt, I see a text message (that does not fit on the screen in full also) and no interface elements at all. I don't know how to continue working with the phone from that point except for removing the battery and inserting it again (which is not good for the OS, I guess).
Some pieces of the message that are visible on the screen:
"... and unlocking is ..."
"... to a virtual ..."
"... and execute the ..."
"... unlock-session ..."
"... session by ..."
"... running session ..."

| RAW image output only 32MB and not working |

(First of all, I don't know the differents between PinePhone 1.0 or 1.1, but I choose 1.1)
I run the flash-it.sh script and typed 'raw' to write image to the folder containing flash-it.sh script. What I have now is;
u-boot-sunxi-with-spl-pinephone.bin 741KB
sdcard.img 32,7MB
But when I flash image to eMMC, nothing seems to happen. Did I do something wrong in the Terminal? Or do I have to use the Terminal inside the phone?

| Can I use the pinetime as a blind user |

Hi all,
I am a blind Linux user and developer. I want to create my own smartwatch and was looking around and found the pinetime.
I have the following queries.
1. Can I update the pinetime without interacting with the screen? The watch does not appear to have any accessibility options at all. I did read the getting started section and that is where I found references to interacting with the touch screen of the watch.
2. Can I connect a speaker to the pinetime? I am not referring to a Bluetooth speaker but something small that I can enclose in the watch case. My idea is to have synthetic speech on the watch.
Regards
Pranav

| How is youtube and general web browsing on the PineBook Pro? |

Hello, I am considering a PineBook Pro as a laptop for basic web browsing and watching videos. I have seen lots of conflicting information about youtube playback, with some saying its unusable and others saying it is pretty decent. What can I expect in that regard? It would not be my primary machine so performance is not that important, but it would need to have good battery life (>6 hours) and be able to play at least 1080p youtube smoothly for me to consider it.

No wIfI after Mobian update |

Hello, after updating Mobian three days ago wifi and bluetooth ceased to exist. I have the convergence dongle so was still able to connect to net. Pinephone does not have a SIM at this time. I have reflashed with Postmarket Phosh, Postmarket Smxo, (both are snappy but did not help with the wifi), and am now sitting with Manjaro Phosh. Hitting the wifi icon does nothing in Manjaro. Hitting it in Mobian would toggle but would not find any network. Manjaro just sits there greyed out. I am not familiar with Arch commands but have done the following:
inxi -n results in wlan0 state: down
nmcli g (and r) results WIFI enabled
ip a results in wlan0 DOWN
I have toggled the hardware micro DIP switch at the back on the Pinephone.
Bluetooth in Mobian and Postmarket said to insert a dongle. It's the same chip and switch, but I would just like wifi up. Do I have a wifi brick?
Any ideas anyone?
