Hi,
I'm interested in real life data how much power PineNut need to operate.

My plan was to use them as solar powered ground moisture meters. They gonna wake up, and then report to base how wet/dry are ground, and go sleep back.

Also I'm not sure if i  gonna play with BT LE mesh or just use WiFi. Size of grass is around 10x20m.

I need some real life data to decide if making it solar powered is possible or not.

I went to install gnome-firmware-updater and apk wasn't there.
I could see it on the alpine packages site.

After some poking around i found the website displays the dl-3 repo but my repo is dl-cdn.

Is dl-cdn not actively updated with the main repo?

Should i change my repo to dl-3 or wait for the dl-cdn mirror to be updated?

I need a spare eMMC for my Quartz64 project so I think I will steal the 64Gb one from my PBP and upgrade the PBP to 128Gb.

The problem is that the only 128Gb ones that I can find are Hardkernel ones meant for Odroid C4.  I am looking at Hardkernel eMMC v0.4 "Purple box" from ebay seller repectech.  Am I correct thinking that this will work just fine in my PBP ?

thanks

Have been having problems booting from a SD card. Is there a some key to press on the keyboard to start the boot process so I can choose SD card. Or do I need to use the terminal? All in all I have been spending much to much time on this. Is there anyone  that can help me on this? Thanks

Greetings,

I was wondering if anyone has a hypervisor-enabled OS image for the RockPro64 (4G)? Or reliable steps for creating one?

Long story: I started on this journey by deciding to create / use a load balancer on my internal network to provide controlled access to my SBC cluster, NAS and Plex servers.  Kemp has a small, free, load balancer which meets my needs, however, it requires a hypervisor-enabled OS.

Short(ish) story: I'd like to get a hypervisor-enabled OS installed and working on my RockPro64 (I'll figure out the rest later).

Hi all,

I run the Herald Bluetooth Proximity project (part of Linux Foundation Public Health). This was originally for COVID-19 digital contact tracing app proximity, but can be used for general Bluetooth interoperability too. I've been thinking for a while a mobile app to share information, and eventually to sync data/settings might be useful between laptops/phones of different OS and models.

Would there be any particular angle to make this useful to PinePhone Pro users? I have a PinePhone and have just bought (yet to receive) a PinePhone Pro. It occurs to me that comms between different Pine-Things may be useful.

If there are particular scenarios people can think of do let me know. E.g. FindMyPinePhone, clipboard sharing, initial copying over of settings to a new phone, link to an opensource eHealth wearable and so on. (Note: We have C++, Java-Android, and Swift-iOS libraries that all interoperate).

All feedback welcome. Here's a link to the project itself if interested:-

Hello world,

now days I have think about of Pebble API on Pinetime，due to Pebble without touch screen, so I think the UI framework is not suitable for Pinetime, and it is a waste of RAM(framebuffer 2 * 240 *240) using Pebble API，but event service is a good way for applications.

there are serial event service to implemented, such as tick service and other services

check update via pinetime/app/src/event at develop · ck-telecom/pinetime (github.com)

I had something like 668 updates to run, and, having run the updates, my phone now freezes at boot with the "K" and the gear displayed on a black screen.

What is the best/easiest way to get this phone booting and running again?

One of my friends gifted me a RockPro64 which is encased in [the PlayBox](https://pine64.com/product/rockpro64-playbox-enclosure/) with this [LCD attached](https://pine64.com/product/7-lcd-touch-screen-panel/) in it.

I'm not able to find any help on how to take this case apart (or even put it together) on the web, the forums, or the pine64 websites.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I want to retrieve the RockPro64 from inside and don't need the case or LCD.
