Hello there,

my new wireless charging case is charging the Pinephone (Mobian Edition) merely at 0.5 A, but the case specs say it should be up to 1.2 A. The charger itself has an output of 15 W.

Any ideas how to boost the charging rate?

Thanks and cheers!

hello, has there been news recently about the pinephone waking up without input or notification?

i read it was a known bug.

So I did some googling and found a phone with similar dimensions and just the right rendition of that phone case to get a reasonable fit and thought I would share with other who have been looking for a pinephone case that does not feel awful.

Case is from a samsung xcover pro with open top and bottom so a better fit then a fully enclosed case;

All I did was drill two holes for the camera and the flash, otherwise its a perfect fit.

pics for the clicks;

So I've been watching SXMO and I'd love to use it full time, but it just seems like, after a few tries, that it takes so many more clicks and actions to do basic things, and that it's not actually simpler than somthing like phosh.
Am I missing something? I do want to use it (been using sway and i3 on the desktop for >5 years) but it feels like I need that "click" moment to happen. When did it "click" for you?
I do have a keyboard addon - does that make it easier?

Following is my Docker compose file. I have used the Jenkins images to install Jenkins. Within the same file,I have defined another container from which I can SSH and connect with the Jenkins server.

Can someone tell me where did I make mistake?

I had Manjaro-phosh beta 22 with operating SMS, MMS, phone calls (send and receive), and audio working and was getting optimistic.  I did a pacman system update hoping for more improvement but now after a large update it won't boot.  Went from working pretty well to not booting.

Upon press of power button, it just shows the "big M" and has the balls spinning around like windows and hangs there.  Never fully boots.  I did a reboot holding down the RE button.  No improvement.

I will load manjaro-phosh beta 23 (https://github.com/manjaro-pinephone/phosh/releases) to SD card and try again.

I'd like to know if others had working system that was upset by recent update (about 100 packages).  Also, if anyone found a successful reboot procedure.

thanks,      tom kosvic

Hello there,

if someone already asked this, I'm sorry for not finding the clue:

Is it possible to make the Phosh app grid transparent to let the desktop background be visible?

I tried to point to a transparent png file according to this Mobian wiki entry

https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php...r-app-grid

and changed all the RGBA values to zero, but it didn't work - still the black menu background.

I also tried to point to the original background picture - which works - but opening and closing of the menu becomes laggy due to the large picture size.

Thanks for ideas!

Cheers!

Hello there,

has someone tested the new version (20220227) of the Mobian Installer for the PinephonePro?

https://images.mobian-project.org/pineph...er/weekly/

I tried FDE installation from SDcard on eMMC and SDcard and both are not working. Choosing the eMMC, it's aborting with an error message while installing. Choosing installation on the SDcard is going through, but the phone is not booting.

Any ideas?

Cheers!

I don't know if anyone else has problems with the terminal on the Pinephone.

For me, when it wraps a line, if I then backspace to correct that line then it gets very garbled so that I have to Ctrl-C and rewrite the whole line from the beginning.

I have tried several different terminals, but they all seem to do the same thing.

Any suggestions?
