I'm trying to install Snaps on my Pinephone running Manjaro ARM w/ Phosh, following the official installation directions for Arch Linux, here: https://snapcraft.io/docs/installing-snap-on-arch-linux

I've hit an impasse, with the message "Pacman is currently in use, please wait." repeating on the terminal screen.

The last command I entered was...

Hello All,
I am running InfiniTime
FW 1.8.0
HW 1.0.0
all had been going well with the watch since I got it until today when the touch screen stopped working. I have been running 1.8.0 since Feb 21. I have tried rebooting by holding the power button, I tried installing the 1.9.0 version on InfiniTime hoping that would reset things but the touch screen still is not working. The power button still works and I can still connect it to Gadgetbridge.  It is a sealed watch so I have no access to the internals.  My current plan is to let the battery die and see if that will reset anything.  Please let me know if you have any recommendations and I will post again if anything changes.

Used 24 *7, mainly for writing, no phonecalls, 3g, wifi. Or is it better to switch to #phosh for this purpose?

I bought a second hand Ubports PinePhone. When I boot the phone, it asks me for the password. The seller told me, I had to reinstall Ubports to solve this problem. Is there no other option to solve this problem?

I let my PPP battery die completely, and then after I charged it from dead with the RE button the screen was extremely dim. I couldn't even unlock the phone because I couldn't see the on-screen keyboard clearly. I powered it off and put in a micro sd with Mobian on it in and booted it up again and I am pretty sure it turns on, but now the screen is completely black, even when I boot from the emmc. What should I do?

The product page for the H64 mentions "802.11ac" wifi. However, the datasheet for RTL8723BS found in the wiki only mentions b/g/n and 2.4 ghz only.

So, which is right? Does the H64 support 5 Ghz and 802.11ac?

I observe it is fascinating that there is a pinebook 64 to buy yet am feeling that it would be great to have a better quality arm based Pine Mini based freely as something almost identical to a macintosh smaller than expected or a Nuc PC as a task scaled down work area. The overall thought would be a usable smaller than expected arm PC of numerous utilizations suck as a Media box, enormous screen television web surfer, programming advancement gadget and different choices, for example, a media community. So not exactly a pc work area yet way further developed than an arm media focus and usable as a PC for say Arch Linux for pine arm advancement with a top of the line arm framework with a more current arm processor as they are cutting to the chase to be cutthroat with a X86 framework.

I have the original pine . Can you put manjaro on this board?

Hello all!

 I got this PinePhone about a month ago, and so far, Arch has been the fastest on it! However, I have noticed that there is now an exclamation mark on the cellular signal on the top bar. I would have put the picture here, but I don't understand how to do that in this forum. Here is the link to the picture: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FWJKroX...sp=sharing I tried Manjaro Phosh on a microSD and after updating, it too had the exclamation mark. In Arch, I tried another sim card (the first was AT&T, the second was Verizon), but it still showed the exclamation mark. The only damage I know of on the sim card slot is that one of the prongs is a little bent after trying to use the included SIM card adapter (that is a whole different story). However, the sign didn't show up before and calls and texts worked and still work even with the mark (though I haven't tested it thoroughly). Also, the modem details seem fine in Arch, but they sometimes go blank if I mess around with the cellular settings. Any information is welcome! Just ask if you need more information.

I've received the Pro for doing some light dev/messing around with, and to use as a daily sms unit. I got time to pull battery contact protector strip, and plug the unit in last night, all much like the 'regular' pinephone. I did notice that the battery was at 50%, which I thought would be expected, it needing a top off. I also noted it was draining, slowly, as I set up wifi et cetera -pretty much wifi and the pine64 arm wallpaper. Weird, but I can swap batteries if need be was my thinking, were it the battery. I started the update process, and let it do its thing, not checking it again until this afternoon, leaving the phone connected to a vanilla wall power usb plug that is surge-protected. There is now no response to button presses, no change if I swap to the battery from the non-Pro model, no friendly red/green led when the usb cable is connected. My first thought was, hell, failure to update, any number of reasons, I can install the OS myself, not a big deal. Upon further examination, this may be the case, or there are any number of other possibilities that I can think of. The older pinephone will boot up with either battery, so I am going to fully charge both, leaving the Pro unpowered overnight, and see what happens in the morning. Honestly, the battery shouldn't, in my mind, be the issue, if the unit is connected to external power, be it PC or wall plug. I hope I've given a detailed enough description, I am doing my best to not work on other things while typing this. Battery troubleshooting aside, does anyone have any thoughts?
