I upgraded my system using pacman and my keyboard stopped working.
The battery in the keyboard appears to be working.

How can I fix this?

Input method: Fcitx5 + Mozc
OS: Plasma Mobile
Pacman branch: Stable

Hi guys,
i'm searching for a Pinetab(keyboard included), it seems that it's not becoming available, so if anyone in Europe who can ship to Italy has one (possibly not much used) to sell, I would be happy to buy it!

Thanks,
Tommaso.

I recently got the PinePhone convergence, and it had a lot of the common problems with Manjaro Plasma, including the battery not charging fully and only holding a charge for a few minutes unless plugged in. Battery drained overnight even with phone turned off, as reported by a number of people. I got the phone, fooled with it for a day, then got updates via the terminal; after that the phone not only didn't charge well but it would crash instantly when unplugged. Obviously, this wasn't working.

So I decided to try the postmarketOS (release v21.12 for PinePhone), put it on an SD card, loaded it onto the phone, and bang: not only a great lightweight os that actually works, but it fixed the battery issues. Now the phone charges 100% and most importantly holds a charge for several hours. Don't know if anyone else has had this experience, but it sure worked for me. Worth a try if you are having those battery issues, and can use a more minimal os.

I was looking into buying a ROCK64-2GB to create a retro gaming system but I am currently put off by the huge $24 shipping costs to California, USA. Will there be low cost shipping alternatives in the future?

I am struggeling to install Libre Office on the PinePhone.

Martijn Braam showed that it runs on Postmarket OS:

It runs on Fedora:

I tried to install it manually:

but I gave up due to complicated file formats.

Sudo apt install libreoffice as in this instruction failed in PostmarkedOS:

LibreOffice should work on the M10 with Ubports:

but new files can only be created by the file manager, but not by LibreOffice.

I tried to install LibreOffice on Ubports PinePhone, but I get an error message:

Does someone use LibreOffice on the PinePhone or Ubports? If someone buts a«buggy» LibreOffice in the App store. I would be very happy with a buggy solution. It would save a lot of time.

Does anyone plan on using these as a alternative to Raspberry Pi for video game emulation?

I wanted to sell my PBP and figured I'd just reinstall from scratch. I downloaded and imaged the SD card with Manjaro, installed to the MMC, then said 'sudo reboot' and watched it shut down but it never came back up.  It's now dead.

Still charges via the 5V connector (red light there is on solid) but pressing the power button on the keyboard does nothing (no lights at all).  Tried to disconnect the battery and use the passthrough cables, reseated the MMC, flipped both switches, press the recovery button, nothing.  How the blankety blank does rebooting a system kill it?

Good day All,

I'm in the US and looking to buy a PineTab with keyboard.  Anyone have one they're willing to part with that's in good working condition?  Obviously willing to negotiate a used price.

Thank you!

I have seen references in these threads stating that eg25-g is firmware/software running the modem.  Is this one file or a directory of files? 

My PPP does not find the sim card and make phone calls as it once did.  I have attributed the inability to make calls to a hardware failure of the sd/sim card holder after repeated uses.  Perhaps, as an alternative, the modem software has gotten corrupted and this has stopped sim card calling. SD installed system runs  manjaro-phosh.

I would like to reinstall eg25-g but I don't know where it resides in the phone software.  I don't know where to get a new copy.  I have manjaro-phosh running from an sd card. This allows use of pacman.  I use "snowflake" ssh which provides both a terminal and a gui file manager to manipulate files between PC and PPP or edit files on PPP.

Anyone with any instructions on how to reinstall eg25-g with a fresh copy?
