  Has anyone tried the Android Xournal++?
Posted by: miak - 02-05-2022, 03:01 PM - Forum: PineNote Software - Replies (4)

Curious how viable the PineNote with android is right now, and some other users have reported KOReader is working well for reading. How's the mobile version of Xournal++?


  US cellular service (as I understand it as of post date)
Posted by: freebsd - 02-05-2022, 02:34 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (17)

The only network you'll have service on is based on T-mobile by the end of Feb 2022.

Coming into 2022 service did work on AT&T.    AT&T has decided on a whitelist for network access and the modem in the PinePhone is not on their whitelist.   Because AT&T liked to lie about 4G its possible the older 4G display on the phone was really 3G they called 4G.   It doesn't matter if they were supporting the phone in 4G before this switch or not based on "search to see if your phone will work" tools - come Feb 22nd or so.

Using the Verizon search tool the PinePhone is not listed as supported.

So Ting - here I come.


  Pure Maps
Posted by: Emilio - 02-05-2022, 11:32 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (2)

Pure Maps cannot get the actual position. It install with flatpak and maps can  be seen. It works. Sorry. It was my fault due lack of knowledge. It is necessary to put the APN of the provider(I called my provider and gave it to me) in the cellular network and data and apn and I could walk several streets with the signal on the map

  PWM Fan Control Python Script
Posted by: superbox - 02-04-2022, 10:02 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - No Replies

I am written a python script to control my fan with pwm. The script is inspirated by shell script from the armbian forum.
You can set the pwm period and duty_cycle.

The script monitoring cpu and all disks an activate the fan when required.

https://github.com/mh-superbox/pwm-fan-control

period
The total period of the PWM signal (read/write). Value is in nanoseconds and is the sum of the active and inactive time of the PWM.

duty_cycle

The active time of the PWM signal (read/write). Value is in nanoseconds and must be less than the period.

More info about pwm: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/pwm.txt


  No Success on MMS messages
Posted by: tckosvic - 02-04-2022, 05:42 PM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - Replies (10)

No mms (messages with attachments) transmittals that I can get going.  My system is stock, as received, but updated plasma-manjaro. Have Consumer Cellarular sim card that is same card as used in my android. where MMS works fine. This card worked on Pinephone for SMS and no MMS. Do not think sim card is cause.

Spacebar app allows setting up message with attachment.  It allows sending of message, shows message and attachment as sent except for small icon that looks like an error, but it is not received.  Neither the text part of the message nor the text is received.

Chatty app still does nothing.  Does not open up for a message and doesn't open up Settings.
  
Any one with any better luck?  Any other app to look at?

  PP Keyboard still has not arrived
Posted by: jojuma - 02-04-2022, 03:55 PM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (15)

Hello,

I'm in Germany and ordered the PP Keyboard (together with some other stuff) on january 1st.
It still hasn't arrived. Looking at the tracking information it has arrived in Germany, but since january 19th nothing else happened.
Are people from Germany here who already got their keyboards?
Is there an issue?
What can I do, if nothing happens any more?

Thanks in advance


Big Grin Modem not 5G but better than original PP!

OK - fairly trivial but has got a smile on my face.

My only internet connection is tethering from my PinePhone(s). I just noticed my desktop package manager update was running close to 60Mbps download on my PinePhone Pro - historically it was more like 40Mbps on the original PinePhone. I guess this is another benefit of the faster CPU  Cool Cool Big Grin Big Grin 

I did try a Speedtest which, while impressive, is single threaded and not quite as exciting as arch/pacman which I have running 4 threads!


  Bluetooth pairing issues (Mobian, InfiniTime)
Posted by: johns - 02-04-2022, 02:11 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTime - Replies (1)

Watch is on Infinitime 1.8.0. PinePhone is Mobian.

Previously (with same version of InfiniTime) I was able to pair with passcode, and talk to the watch using itd. It would lose the connection after a (short) while, and fail to reconnect (even though the phone was in range and not suspended).

However now, I can't get it to pair at all. This is what happens:

0. Start bluetoothctl
1. Make sure InfiniTime is not in bluetoothctl list of devices and that info [mac] does not show it paired.
2. Exit bluetoothctl
3. Reboot watch
4. Toggle bluetooth off and then on again on the PinePhone
5. Start bluetoothctl
6. wake watch up with side button
7. in bluetoothctl: scan on
8. in bluetoothctl: pair [mac]

I get:

[bluetooth]# pair [MAC]
Attempting to pair with [MAC]
[CHG] Device [MAC] Connected: yes
[CHG] Device [MAC] Connected: no
Failed to pair: org.bluez.Error.AuthenticationCanceled


Sometimes I will get the passcode prompt, and the passcode displayed on the watch. But even when typing in the passcode, I get the above. Often the above will happen before I finish typing the passcode.

Any ideas for how to get the watch paired? (And ideally, to keep the connection stable.. I see scripts for reconnecting after suspend, but that's not my issue. I'm using the keyboard w/battery, so the phone is never in suspend.)

EDIT: If I do connect first instead of pair, it connects. Then I can pair successfully, with the passcode. After that, I mark trust on. However, the connection drops a minute later. It seems to be oscillating between Connected: yes and Connected: no.

EDIT 2: Logs have this:
Feb 04 15:28:28 mobian itd[1647]: 3:28PM FTL Error connecting to InfiniTime error=le-connection-abort-by-local
