  Battery Life is it possible?? Tech Question (sort of)
Posted by: scrwbigtek - 05-03-2022, 04:44 PM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (4)

Hello,

Really dumb question. I'm not super up to speed yet on the whole Pinephone stuff so forgive me.

Got the Pinephone Pro and I realize it is still in the works. Most know the battery life is an issue right now, no complaining here, just curious.

So will it be possible to get iPhone like battery life one day out of it?

I have a iPhone SE2 now.  How in the world do they get that much battery life out it?
Is it a bigger battery? Is it sophisticated power management software? Both?

If Apple can do it Linux can do it right?

Or is there some hardware limitation that the Pinephone Pro that it will not be able to sip and and conserve its battery like an iPhone?

thanks!


  Change tow-boot boot order or otherwise make Mobian on uSD the default?
Posted by: allworlds - 05-03-2022, 06:50 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (3)

I've dusted off my old Pinephone and I'm giving it another go. New(ish) to Pinephone, new to Manjaro, not new to Debian or Linux generally.

I've installed tow-boot as directed by Mobian's Wiki, flashed Manjaro-Plamsa to the eMMC, and have Mobian-Phosh on the micro SD card. With this setup it boots to the eMMC install by default, but at the moment I'm mainly using Mobian and want to boot to that by default. Rather than having to remember to hold volume down after every reboot.


  How to set up a transparent proxy + redirect all dns requests with tor?
Posted by: cowfarmer09 - 05-02-2022, 08:04 AM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - No Replies

I can’t seem to find any documentation on how to do this on an alpine system. The configuration which I try to apply on postmarketos do not work and have the network connection unable to connect to the internet. Postmarketos uses openrc so that may have something to do with it. I checked the gentoo wiki though those instructions don’t work either.

Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?

  Troubleshooting Kmail not opening on monjaro
Posted by: jcarty - 05-02-2022, 06:34 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

Hello,

I had been using Kmail for a while without any issues but recently it has started to refuse to open. I'm not given any visual error messages. The icon appears in the tray at the bottom then disappears.

Where should I look to find out more information about why it is failing to open?

So far I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling via pacman.

  Waydroid does not connect to VPN
Posted by: t2moo - 05-01-2022, 02:01 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - No Replies

I have Waydroid on my postmarketOS/PHOSH pre-Pro model PinePhone. I also have Mullvad Wireguard VPN working just fine on it. "ifconfig" shows waydroid0 and 192.168.250.1 and it pings okay from the terminal on the PinePhone side. Waydroid has an internet connection when the VPN is down, but does not when the VPN is up. Is there a safe way to allow waydroid0 to use the VPN and still have all Waydroid traffic use the VPN?


  Wrong pin (default manjaro install)
Posted by: senorsmile - 05-01-2022, 12:35 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (5)

The device was working fine back in March when I first got it.  
I didn't use it at all in April and just charged the battery and booted it up again. 
It's saying "Wrong pin".  However, I'm 99.99% confident I'm inputting the right pin, since I make sure to use the same pin on all of my devices (and I have many for testing purposes).  

Has anyone else had this problem?  Are there clear instructions on how to do get root access, boot to single user mode (I imagine this isn't a think on the PPP) etc?


  Danger icon on mobile network
Posted by: avodá - 05-01-2022, 11:54 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (6)

Hi there everyone,



I'm running Phosh Manjaro ARM and I have a persistent orange danger sign in my mobile network. The icon has 4 vertical bars of increasing height. The tallest one is grey and the others are white. Then there is an orange square on the foreground with a black exclamation mark inside.





What does this mean and how should I fix this?






Thanks a lot to this beautiful community!
