  voLTE Bell
Posted by: optimus - 11-13-2021, 07:17 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - No Replies

In rural Canada, there is a Bell cell tower 12 km away from where I live, and I get a weak 3G signal. Bell installed a repeater on the top of the church which is using 4G voLTE. My pinephone detects full strength 4G signal, but when I call it falls back to the weak 3G faraway tower signal. This is because my pinephone isn't using 4G voLTE.
Since 4G voLTE protocol handling differs from one carrier to another, I guess that the software to enable Bell voLTE hasn't been developped yet.
Meanwhile, I've been looking at the list of carriers for which voLTE has been enabled:
+QMBNCFG: "List",1,0,0,"VoLTE-ATT",0x0501033C,201909271
+QMBNCFG: "List",2,0,0,"hVoLTE-Verizon",0x05010141,201911251
+QMBNCFG: "List",3,0,0,"Sprint-VoLTE",0x05010205,201908141
+QMBNCFG: "List",4,1,1,"Commercial-TMO_VoLTE",0x05010505,201811231
+QMBNCFG: "List",5,0,0,"Telus-Commercial_VoLTE",0x05800C43,201912031
+QMBNCFG: "List",6,0,0,"Commercial-SBM",0x05011C18,201904021
+QMBNCFG: "List",7,0,0,"Commercial-DT",0x05011F1C,201905311
+QMBNCFG: "List",8,0,0,"Reliance_OpnMkt",0x05011B38,201910161
+QMBNCFG: "List",9,0,0,"TF_Germany_VoLTE",0x05010C1B,201909201
+QMBNCFG: "List",10,0,0,"TF_Spain_VoLTE",0x05010CFA,201909261
+QMBNCFG: "List",11,0,0,"Volte_OpenMkt-Commercial-CMCC",0x05012071,201904281
+QMBNCFG: "List",12,0,0,"OpenMkt-Commercial-CT",0x05011322,201911081
+QMBNCFG: "List",13,0,0,"OpenMkt-Commercial-CU",0x05011505,201807052
+QMBNCFG: "List",14,0,0,"Telstra-Commercial_VoLTE",0x0580079E,202006101
+QMBNCFG: "List",15,0,0,"Commercial-KDDI",0x0501071D,202004041
+QMBNCFG: "List",16,0,0,"Commercial-DCM",0x05010D17,202006101
+QMBNCFG: "List",17,0,0,"Commercial-SKT_VoLTE",0x05012724,201907221
+QMBNCFG: "List",18,0,0,"Commercial-KT",0x05012C0D,202005071'


one can obtain that list by using the command:

Code:
mmcli -m any --command='AT+QMBNCFG="list"'

Since these are all abreviations, I was wondering if the +QMBNCFG: "List",6,0,0,"Commercial-SBM",0x05011C18,201904021 could stand for
SBM = Service Bell Mobility or something.

I haven't been able to enable it, and so I couldn't experiment. If there's anybody in the same situation who are willing to take this further, I hope this give a hint on what to try.


  PinePhone to sell ; Community Edition Manjaro + Convergence Package
Posted by: Gribouille - 11-13-2021, 02:19 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (6)

Hello,

I sell my PinePhone 'Community Edition: Manjaro with Convergence Package'. The screen has a dead vertical line like other.

You could find it here : https://fr.shopping.rakuten.com/offer?ac...7509701082

The picture was taken with my 'actioncam', so the proportion are strange  Undecided I've made some videos to show the device, but I can't put them on the site.

I haven't put my SDCard on the PinPhone, this why I use the Dockbar and an Ethernet cable. The PinePhone is perfectly working with the SDCard.

I've installed Manjaro into the eMMC memory, I can install an other distribution if asked.

Have a good day.


  Protonmail in Geary
Posted by: tombull - 11-13-2021, 01:29 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

I am running Mobian Phosh.

I have protonmail-bridge installed following instructions I found in a post here but I cannot get protonmail set up in Geary.
I have tried to manually configure imap and smtp in geary and also in settings online accounts new imap and smtp but keep getting errors.
Is there a tutorial for this?
Will protonmail work in Geary?

When I try to configure IMAP in settings new online accounts
IMAP Server 127.0.0.1
username "myusername"
Password "my password"
I get error "Connection refused"

In the proton-bridge when I use the "info 0" command it returns my account information and a long password that is not the password I use to login with, I assume that is the password the bridge is using to decrypt messages. I have used that password as well as the password I login in with to no avail. Why is my connection refused?


  Usability with 20w charger
Posted by: nixcamic - 11-13-2021, 10:50 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinecil - Replies (1)

I'm looking for a powerbank I can run my pinecil off and they seem to all get crazy expensive after about 20w pd. How usable will the pinecil actually be on 20w?


Also, does anyone have any idea when the 1.5m usb-c cables will be back in stock, mine died (guess would be a manufacturing defect) and I've been waiting to order another forever.


  no access to webdav files (for some apps)
Posted by: jsch - 11-13-2021, 09:46 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - No Replies

Hello

I stumbled over an issue when accessing files on my Nextcloud drive. Opening a pdf via portfolio worked fine, but opening a kdbx file (with Gnome-PasswordSafe did not work).
As a workaround I have created a symlink:
ln -s /run/user/1000/gvfs/dav\:host\=server_fqdn\,ssl\=true\,user\=uername\,prefix\=%2Fremote.php%2Fwebdav/ Nextcloud_webdav

Any idea where to address this issue to?


  Shipment, I lost a track number and cannot remember where I saw it in a first place

Good day, I bought some accessories for my Pinephone in 27 of October from Russia early in the morning, and I didn't wrote tracking number thinking that I have account on pine64.com now, just checked that parcel is going. Now it is in deliver for two weeks I would like to check it up again, but cannot find the number or mail. How can I restore it?


  Mobian and Deep Sleep Crust
Posted by: some_pinephone_user - 11-13-2021, 04:10 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

I'm using Debian bookworm on Pinephone, installed on eMMC now. And seems to drain the battery pretty fast (faster then Manjaro ARM on the same device). How can I monitor the use of CRUST deep sleep? IS it enabled now?

Is there the difference between kernels 5.15 and 5.10 regarding power save?

I've just looked into a dmesg of modem firmware, and there is nothing about deep sleep, but in the kernel of mobian there is deep sleeps. This indicates, that the modem doesn't getting into deep sleep on Mobian.


  Discover does not find some apps
Posted by: localhorst - 11-12-2021, 11:45 PM - Forum: Arch Linux on PinePhone - Replies (2)

Hello, I have Arch Linux with Plasma Mobile installed on my Pinephone. Now when I open Discover and search for PureMaps, Kaidan or KTrip for example, Discover finds nothing. But on the Plasma Mobile website these apps are listed. When I try to install these apps from the website, Discover opens and shows me this output: "appstream://org.kde.trip" cannot be opened.

Is it possible to install these apps?

Many thanks to all!


  Armbian on Quartz64
Posted by: dieselnutjob - 11-12-2021, 07:21 AM - Forum: Linux on Quartz64 - Replies (34)

Using a Linux desktop machine
Download this https://users.armbian.com/balbes150/rk35...5.0.img.xz
Unxz the file
dd it onto a microSD card
sync
remove it
reinsert
Depending on your distro the boot folder of the microSD card will automagically mount.
As root:-
find /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
change the fourth line
from

Code:
FDT /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3566-firefly-roc-pc.dtb

to
Code:
FDT /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3566-quartz64-a.dtb

save
sync
umount the partition
put the microSD card in a quartz64 and boot it up

Straight away I can see that USB ports don't work, but it does boot and you can log in with a woodpecker interface.

Thanks to user Trigu75 on this thread https://forum.freaktab.com/forum/tv-play...d-boxes-11


  RAM deficiency after recent large Manjaro update?
Posted by: stozi - 11-12-2021, 03:29 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (1)

A couple days ago there was a major-ish Manjaro update. Since then, half of my Chromium tabs and extensions are constantly crashing. I use quite a bit but this wasn't happening before.

$ cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize  
6075875328

This means 6 Gigs right? Don't get what the problem is 

# swapon /dev/zram0

says it's already busy.
