| Recycling pinephone as home server |

Hi!
I have an old pinephone that I stopped using (due to broken battery pins).
I'm trying to recycle it as a home server, without a battery (I don't want it to catch fire) but:
- Either I plug it using an USB-C charger, it boots, but does not gets Wi-Fi (known behavior), so I'm stuck.
- Either I use the Pinephone convergence dock to use RJ45, but it looks like it lacks power or something as the phone bootloops.
I though about using a voltage regulator to fake the battery BUT I fear the moment the phone tries to "charge" it, lol.
Can someone try to boot its pinephone without a battery and with a convergence dock to see if there's any chance this way?
Or is there another way I missed?

Like the title says, I ran apt dist-upgrade and now I get no automatic touch keyboard on any app.
I checked that the touch virtual keyboard was enabled in the mobile settings, holding the line on the bottom just caused it to wiggle left and right like a failed login box in some distros.
It will probably be back in a day or two though I don't like being without and would like an easy way to force the touch keyboard.

I'm selling my 2020 model ANSI(US keyboard) Pinebook Pro. No issues and everything works as expected. Very low usage.
For anybody in Southern California, local pick up in Thousand Oaks, CA. I won't ship it.
Send me a direct message if you are interested.
Thanks.

I downloaded mobian-sunxi-plasma-mobile-13.0.[img.bmap|img.xz|sha256sums|sha256sums.sig] from https://images.mobian.org/sunxi/ and failed to verify the signature.
Code: LANGUAGE=en gpg --verify mobian-sunxi-plasma-mobile-13.0.sha256sums.sig mobian-sunxi-plasma-mobile-13.0.sha256sums
gpg: Signature made Mo 13 Okt 2025 10:55:36 CEST
gpg: using RSA key 782C6C58B583FE966CEE44EBF8BDAB78BEE246C2
gpg: issuer "admin+images@mobian.org"
gpg: Can't check signature: No public key
It seems to be signed with a key as mentioned in https://blog.mobian.org/posts/2025/10/ne...ting-keys/ but I can not get this key from any server.
https://wiki.debian.org/Mobian/Verify still mentions:
Code: gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu ...
which seems to be down since 2023. But trying keyring.debian.org, keys.openpgp.org, keyserver.ubuntu.com, pool.sks-keyservers.net fails too.
Where do I get the key to verify the latest Mobian images for PinePhone (sunxi)?

I'm working on a custom OS in Zig for the PinePhone v1.2b. I am struggling to find some documentation on various parts of the hardware. Today the compass. I tried the I2C address for the AKM compass, and no response, so I am hoping I have the VTC compass, otherwise my TWI1 code is doing something very wrong 
But I dont have the I2C address, and the documentation linked from the component page on the wiki has expired. Can anyone shed some light on this please. A good start would be the I2C address, but a copy of the data sheet would be best please. I am unable to decode linux source tree structure to find this.
Also, are the PinePhone sensors always powered, since DLD01 seems to be used everywhere. For the LCD and touch I had to switch on some pio pins, but I dont see that on schematics, only EINT pins. Iḿ worried about power usage from unused sensors.
I am used to following @lupyuen amazing tutorials, but I think he focuses more on new devices and didnt cover the sensors

I have a Pine64 PineTab2 device. I have accidentally destroyed the Linux kernel on it, and there is no way to boot into Linux. However, I can access U-Boot. What should I do to install Arch Linux ARM with U-Boot only?
By the way, I am not familiar to U-Boot commands. Are there any suggestions for installing Arch Linux ARM? (especially U-Boot commands)

Hi,
I wrote a Kivy app on my mobian pinephone (phosh). Main screen is just 3 buttons and a label.
If I switch to another app, the touches on the display are still sent to the kivy app.
Even if the display is turned off, the touches on the black display are sent to the kivy app...
Is that behavior expected?
How to avoid this?
Best,
Jean-Charles
