Was trying to use Spot to listen to my music, and for the longest time I thought there was some sort of driver issue... Wasn't really sure, but the audio would get really choppy and laggy whenever I tried to play on the speaker, so I just assumed that something (library, pipewire, IDK...) was broke, but the choppiness seemed to by a CPU thing, so I got the serendipitous idea to check it at low volume, and what do ya know, it works great! So I am not sure if there are still fixes for this coming down the pipe, but to anyone who might be in my position and think it is broke, it isn't! Just the speaker seemingly draws too much current from the CPU.

In trying to use Geary on manjaro or arch -- last week it worked fine on both -- it demands a keyring password.  I type in my root password or my gmail password but neither works and my inbox won't update. I have renamed .local/share/keyring/Default_keyring.keyring but it didnt help. I also used sudo pacman-key --init and --populate but that didn't help either. I deleted and reinstalled Geary but the reinstalled version immediately knew to use my Gmail account and didn't update. I have recently installed towboot but haven't done anything else significant. 

Advice?

Hello!
I'm from Kiev (Ukraine).
I want to buy Pine64 Pro.
The shipping options doesn't have "Ukraine" at the countries list at the store. Is that an mistake? Or you do not deliver goods to Ukraine?

Thanks

I've followed the instructions at the wiki on setting up mobile data, and it works fine, except that it really kills the battery. Every time the phone boots it auto-enables any connections it can, which means to prevent the phone from automatically overheating and dying after a few hours in my pocket I need to remember to manually turn data off.

Is there a way to configure the modem connection with nmcli to keep it from turning on automatically, or should I just have a script run a few minutes after boot to turn it off?
The second option seems kinda hacky to me so I'd rather avoid it, but I'm using sxmo so I might as well embrace the way of the bash scripts...

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?

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?
