  Tank temp sensor
Posted by: bannerd - 02-01-2022, 11:35 AM - Forum: General - No Replies

Hey all, I have a large water tank and I'm looking for a sensor that will give me temp read outs.  It needs to be submersible if not, we can make it waterproof using plastidip or 3M Marine board dip.

Let me know, the sensor wire needs to be at least 3ft for one area and 14ft for the other tank side.


  Bent SD card pin
Posted by: bhboyle - 02-01-2022, 07:52 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Hardware - Replies (5)

Good morning.

Yesterday I received my new Pinephone Pro. As you can imagine I was excited.

Right away my excitment turned to sadness. I noticed there is a problem with the updates. I will not update at all due to some errors. It would not work via the gui or the command line. No problem I thought, I will just reinstall the OS. It was at this point that I saw the bent pin in the SD card reader. The pins are failrly badly bent. It refuses to boot of any SD card I have.

So now I have a $399 paper weight. Sad

Hello,

Is there a guide or a documentation to start with ?
Thank you

  No update PGP, Error Solved
Posted by: iopser - 01-31-2022, 05:15 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (2)

Helloo

Today finallyyy a get this peace of hardware.

And when i try to update. oo error ... and error after error.
Well after reading researching, 2 h later i figure out one way to solve the issue.
The error pgp refer to the sig files, so i erase the sig file.
1 file error: archlinux-keyring-20220118-1any.pkg.tar.xz.sig or some like that.
2 file error: archlinuxarm-keyring-20140119-1any.pkg.tar.xz.sig or some like that.
make sudo pacman -Syu, make error happen, but dont erase the files. go to
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/ an erase the .sig, this is important.
and them install the package
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/package1.pkg.tar.xz
and try if you get another error like me, them
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/package2.pkg.tar.xz

After that you can try to install openssh or one prog o just try and update.
For me this solve this litlle problem. and system update DONE.

ello

Saludos.

  completely bricked?
Posted by: rmpek - 01-31-2022, 01:24 PM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (7)

hi,

i am having issues with my PPP (EE) - i can sometimes get it to start (from emmc), and then things are fine, but usually i dont get anything. no led, no buzz, nothing. i have now tried pressing "re" ... the exact sequence isnt clear to me. should i also press power? or simply press "re" while connecting via USB? dmesg on the machine i am connecting it to stays silent, no usb devices appear. also - battery in or out? does it make a difference?

the cable is fine, i tested it with another phone, and i have also swapped cables - and i also have charge the ppp on it before.

one thing i did notice was that the sd card slot sounded weird when i first inserted a card - i also have the original PP, and it did not have this issue. i would desribe the sound as "scratchy" - does anyone else have this issues?

what could i try? i would really like to keep playing with it.

  A Pinephone case that'll actually prevent the screen from cracking
Posted by: mil - 01-31-2022, 12:59 PM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (24)

I'm on about my 3rd screen replacement. Yes I'm quite clumsy and often drop the Pinephone.

So is there **any** Pinephone case that'll actually prevent the screen from cracking if you drop the Pinephone screen face down? If someone makes this case they'd make a lot of money from sales - I'd buy one and I'm sure many others would too.

What is everyone using for a durable Pinephone case? I've heard the soft and hard cases from Pine64 also don't prevent cracks..


  Mepo - Minimalist and hackable OSM map viewer for mobile linux
Posted by: mil - 01-31-2022, 12:44 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (22)

Hi all,

I wanted to drop a note here about a Pinephone-related project I'm working on - its a minimalist (and fast!) OSM map viewer targeting good compatibility/support with mobile Linux. The project name is Mepo. There are some demo videos & you can learn more at the project's homepage:

https://sr.ht/~mil/mepo/

As for features it does POI searches, routing, bookmarks, offline mode, and some other neat stuff.

Right now its packaged for Alpine (postmarketOS edge), and NixOS.
For UI support: I'm working on Phosh compatibility for the next release (0.4) and its already quite usable in Sxmo and on desktop Linux (wayland & X).

I'm posting here as outside of the Sxmo mailing list, I haven't mentioned the project in many other places (!) but wanted to make sure the community is aware of the project! Feel free to file tickets on the bug tracker on sr.ht and also I can answer questions here. Trying to gather some more feedback and the project is open for contributions/suggestions etc. My idea is to beat the Google Maps/Apple Maps experience and offer a superior freedom-respecting and hackable experience for the Pinephone et al.!


---

Update: 1.0 has been released, you can read more at the mailing list update at:
https://lists.sr.ht/~mil/mepo-devel/%3C4...ail.com%3E

With the new release, mepo now supports Phosh, Sxmo, and now Plasma Mobile out-of-the-box.
Additionally per request a flatpak has been added as well to Flathub so usage on Mobian and other distros is now doable, see:
https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.milesalan.mepo

On postmarketOS edge, to install you can run:

Code:
apk add mepo-scripts

See the install guides for other distributions at: http://mepo.milesalan.com/installguide.html
A new documentation website is at: http://mepo.milesalan.com
And demo videos are at: http://mepo.milesalan.com/demos.html
