Does anyone know how to install flatpack on mobian? It's not findable in the "software" app, and 'apt-get install flatpack' returns that it can't find the package. I found one forum thread which suggested that flatpack is available through the unstable repository. If this is true, is there a way to switch to unable for just this package?

My headphone connector is a little messed up, e.g. I need to use a rubber band to hold my headphone cables *just so* in order to use the thing. I'm looking that part or similar-enough ones that I could swap out on my board. I'm not afraid of a little soldering and I think it'd be a little silly to buy an entire new mainboard just due to one headphone connector. (My mic is apparently also messed up: given my skill I'd expect it'd be better to just order a new daughterboard and install that, but if anyone's aware of that part, LMK?)

https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_component_list lists the part as "JA-3606-001AA 3.5mm audio jack". I didn't find this exact ID on alibaba or digikey, and I haven't found especially similar-looking TRRS jacks on Digikey in a few minutes of digging. So if anybody's got a decent set of calipers to get some approximate dimensions of the connector on their Pinephone, maybe I can use that information to try to find something with a similar spec sheet?

Any other ideas or advice would be welcome

Hi All

I have browsed for days and simply can't find a description on how to install Waydroid on Mobian.
Have installed it on Manjaro no problem at all.
If I were to go back to bullseye, it would probably succeed as well.

There are also a few posts about how well it runs on Bookworm, but alas no description as to the method used.

Is there anyone on this forum that could describe how to overcome the bullseye limitation, it would really be appreciated.

Regards

I work in an industrial setting, and I want my pinetime to last a while.
What screen protector fits?
What else do you recommend to prolong the lifespan of the device?

Hi,

I've experimented with different distros trying to get audio output from the car MMI. Connecting via bluetooth worked fine in all cases, but either I did not get any sound or I was unable to tune up the volume (the car MMI saying "functionality unavailable this time" when turning the volume knob).

Has anyone gotten this to work, and if so, could you let me know which OS you're using?

Hi all,

I am looking to sell my pinephone and want to securely erase it first, what is the best way of doing this?

I am thinking:

• Boot from another distro on an SD card
  
• Run shred on all partitions on the eMMC
  
• Reinstall OS using jump drive image
  

• Is there a better way of doing this?
  
• Is it ok to nuke the eMMC like this or is there firmware, bootloaders etc. on the eMMC that would brick the phone if removed?
  

For an Android phone with pinetime running Infinitime, which app is better or preferred and why?

Hi,

I was wondering whether the explorer editions ships with CE/FCC labels? Maybe someone who already got the pre-EE edition can say that? The wiki also does not state any info about this, yet.

Hi folks,

I noticed a picture on Twitter showing that Manjaro allows showing date and time instead of only time on the header bar in Phosh. Does anybody know what enables this? Is there an option that I'm missing in Mobian? Or a package missing in Mobian to enable this?

Thanks!
