  Waydroid on PinePhone Pro PPP (Stock Manjaro Plasma)
Posted by: mhedhli - 02-08-2022, 10:47 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (7)

Any luck running Waydroid on PPP default Manjaro Plasma Install?

I was able to get it installed with the below instructions for the PinePhone, but upon launching it just hangs on the Waydroid launch screen.

Installation instructions:

Code:
sudo pacman -S waydroid-image
sudo waydroid init -f
sudo systemctl enable waydroid-container --now



then launch the app from Pinephone App launcher.

App hangs and does not progress past initial screen. I tried launching from the terminal with wayland show-full-ui and got a wayland-0 display error. 

Upon forcing a reboot from the terminal I noticed an Android terminal screen with an error about sensors... I forced a reboot holding the power button. Perhaps some tweaks are needed to target the proper display? Any thoughts?

Thinking the issue has to do with PSI requirement in the kernel which has not yet made it to mainline stable Manjaro.
Do we need PSI to run Waydroid? - ARM - Manjaro Linux Forum

Is there a work around for PSI or do we need to upgrade to a non-stable kernel... or do we wait. :-\

  Packages being kept back
Posted by: user641 - 02-08-2022, 04:59 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (2)

Hello,

I just ran an 'apt update && apt upgrade' and this packages were being kept back:

librygel-renderer-2.6-2 librygel-server-2.6-2 rygel

Running a apt full-upgrade will do that bellow:

remove: libgupnp-av-1.0-2 libgupnp-dlna-2.0-3

install: libgupnp-av-1.0-3 libgupnp-dlna-2.0-4

upgrade: librygel-renderer-2.6-2 librygel-server-2.6-2 rygel

Is it safe to perform an 'apt full-upgrade'?


  How to remove the sim card
Posted by: liberty1234 - 02-08-2022, 01:12 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Hardware - Replies (7)

The question looks stupid but I tried really hard to remove the SIM card but failed on my new PPP
Inserting the SIM card is challenge enough because I am using the adapter for Nano sim card. The adapter is very loose and the card fell out easily.

Now the SIM card is fully inserted but I cannot get the SIM out because it is fully inserted. Does anyone have tips removing the sim card? Thanks!

  J7 battery
Posted by: Frost1776 - 02-07-2022, 09:45 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Hardware - Replies (6)

I put a j7 battery in my PPP it fits but tightly, it's a 3000 just like the stock one. My question is being a little and a different should be good to run right.

It definitely holds a charge longer.


  Android Lunch Menu
Posted by: xenoscr - 02-07-2022, 09:39 PM - Forum: PineNote Software - Replies (1)

To build for the PineNote, what option should I pick from the lunch menu? There are 4 options, that mention eink, and I don't see anything in the Wiki:

12. rk3566_eink-user
13. rk3566_eink-userdebug
14. rk3566_einkw6-user
15. rk3566_einkw6-userdebug


Or is the correct option one of the other options?

Thanks,

Question USB-C Video Out Issue
Posted by: dev - 02-07-2022, 08:58 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

I've repeatedly encountered an issue where my PBP's video out only works once per login session. Throughout my workday I need to project my PBP using a Crestron system with an HDMI to USB-C converter. It works fine the first time, but when I remove the adapter and later attempt to project again, it won't work until I restart it.

Has anyone encountered this and/or knows where to look to try and debug it? A display service perhaps?

Today (Feb 07, 2022) 

USA - Faith Wireless a virtual AT&T provider just kicked my PinePhone off their network.

Here is the message I got from the Faith Wireless technician

I have some bad news. Your device came up registered as a Mobile Broadband Device when the Registered IMEI was updated. We do not service Mobile Broadband Devices. The reason you were able to have service before is AT&T had not previously been policing their networks. With the impending 3G Sunset they've begun doing that and you won't be able to use this device with us anymore. You may put your SIM card into another compatible device if you want to continue with us. Here a list of devices you can use: https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/sup...etwork.pdf


  [Solved] How I got fsck.f2fs to get unstuck and fix not booting PP
Posted by: gab - 02-07-2022, 04:46 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (1)

My PinePhone (v1.2, 3GB running Mobian testing from eMMC) was low on battery and the red USB C cable was not perfectly plugged so it got unplugged, the PP abruptly turned off and ... it would not boot again Confused . That was the first time ever I got this problem, in 11 months of daily driving (no other phone), and a lot of drained batteries (thats bad, I know...).


tldr: to fix it I flashed Mobian on a micro sd card, then fsck.f2fs was not working but after I mounted / unmounted /dev/mmcblk2p2 I retried fsck.f2fs which then surprisingly worked and apparently fixed any problem left.


More details:

First log I got using the UART cable:

Is the "Jump Drive" image for the 'Pine phone Pro' available yet ?

I understand the original "Jump Drive"  image is only for the original Pine phone.


  Check Battery Level for Keyboard
Posted by: ragreenburg - 02-07-2022, 12:59 PM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (16)

Anyone know how to check the battery level for the keyboard? In Megi's FAQ it shows you can run the command below but every time I try to run that I get command unknown. I am using Arch and the keyboard/charger are working just fine but I can't get any info on the battery level.

Code:
