  Sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck -- keeps being needed
Posted by: tckosvic - 02-09-2022, 11:30 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (2)

The command in the title above removes a file that keeps pacman from running updates.  Question is what is causing this to keep setting over and over and how to prevent it occurring.

I have used this several times but the lock keeps coming back.  Why???

  "Pine64 USB JTAG Adapter + OpenOCD + PineTime" should it work?
Posted by: ITCactus - 02-09-2022, 09:01 AM - Forum: Development Discussion on PineTime - Replies (4)

as a beginner, a looked at "PineTime Devkit Wiring" tutorial, 
and decided to order the Pine64 USB JTAG Adapter (schematic) alongside with PineTime dev kit to play with it...

but then i realized, that it's not a ST-Link clone...
also, i had to play additionally with drivers using "Zadig" app on Windows.

i'm trying to make it work with OpenOCD, and so far no luck with

Code:
.\openocd.exe -f interface/ftdi/ft232h-module-swd.cfg -f target/nrf52.cfg

swd
Info : Listening on port 6666 for tcl connections
Info : Listening on port 4444 for telnet connections
Info : clock speed 1000 kHz
Error: Error connecting DP: cannot read IDR



long story short, has anyone tried this?
is it supposed to work at all?

Big Grin Installed Arch Phosh On Btrfs Root
Posted by: kaida - 02-08-2022, 09:25 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (6)

I successfully succeeded in having My Root filesystem use Btrfs , next step is to play with snapper
[Image: Btrfs-pinephone-Pro.jpg]

Will soon post a guide on how to , for those wanting to know / try

but basically goes as follow :

Started by flashing an image of arch phosh

backed up the filesystem in a tar

setting up an ext4 boot partition and the Btrfs partition and subvolumes

extracting the fs from the tar back into the mounted btrfs layout

added some arguments to boot.txt inside /boot ( extraargs=rootflags=subvol=@ rootfstype=btrfs ) to the setenv line

regenerated a boot.scr with mkimage

fixed fstab with uuid


  I guess I destroyed my phone.
Posted by: Merc - 02-08-2022, 07:41 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (4)

I tried to use an adapter to extend my SD card slot to outside my PinePhone case so I didn't have to keep taking the case off and I guess that [removed by mod] destroyed my phone because it no longer reads from the SD card slot. The phone turns on, the LED turns green and then it just stays like that. I guess it's my fault. [removed by mod] This is likely my last post on this forum. My phone is destroyed. Whatever. Piece of trash. My beta phone bricks the second I decide to do anything with it.

  Manjaro Plasma Beta and Cellular Data Service
Posted by: Fred Zyphal - 02-08-2022, 07:26 PM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (7)

So, I've been playing with my PinePhone since about July of 2021, all of the different OS's, but since I use Ubuntu on my desktop and laptop, I've been happiest with Ubuntu Touch on my phone (this could all change back to Fedora at any moment).  As soon as I was able to, I ordered the PinePhone Pro which is still in transit, and since they seem to be shipping Manjaro with Plasma on the Pro, I decided to focus on that for a while.  I installed Beta5 a while back, and I was excited to see that cell phone service just always worked, it was great, way better than UT.  Eventually I upgraded to Beta10 and was very disappointed to see that it no longer worked, at all, so I put Beta5 back on just to be sure that I wasn't imagining things, and it still worked.  So I tried Beta9, and sort of accidentally discovered that cell phone service doesn't work unless you have cellular data turned on, I don't want cellular data turned on because I'm playing with my cheap Consumer Cellular SIM.  So another quick check of Beta5 confirmed that it works great with cellular data either on or off.  Sometime between Beta5 and Beta9, it broke, and I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this, and if anyone knows what happened, or more importantly does anyone know how to fix it?


  Bash prompt temp batery Mobian ppp
Posted by: iopser - 02-08-2022, 02:56 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - No Replies

Hi .
Well i was trying Mobian  and i love the little tweak of adding on .bashrc the battery prompted when ssh connection.
and i realize the path have change and  variables and so, and still there is no wiki so i will share here.
The new thing is just adding and change a couple of things, here we go:
I just create a var.  CAPACI and call it with the new  path.

Code:
# -= start battery prompt =-
battery_status(){
BATTERY=/sys/class/power_supply/rk818-charger/ #meu ppp ficar vari CAPACI nou path
CAPACI=/sys/class/power_supply/battery/ # mee ppp crido CAPACI nou path
BATSTATE=$(cat ${BATTERY}/status)
CHARGE=$(cat ${CAPACI}/capacity)
rest of the code dont change.




note:  powersuply app happens the same.
that's it. Should work with this.

ello.

  Keyboard case issues
Posted by: dgiffin - 02-08-2022, 12:15 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Accessories - Replies (10)

My keyboard case worked fine with my (original) PinePhone, but with my PinePhone Pro the keys just aren’t recognised - anyone else hit this? The phone is well sat into the top of the case, so I don’t think it’s a bad connection on the pins.


  PackageKit daemon has crashed

I get this when I try and run the system updates - freshly unboxed PinePhone Pro, not made any changes.
