Ok, I had a perfectly running Manjaro installed on my PBP eMMC, but decided to update the U-boot to see if it might fix a clock issue I have (likely not but I had never updated that part of the system myself). That went ok, but now instead of a black boot screen until login, I see text regarding the boot sequence. I don't want to see that, so I removed the "console=" bits in the extlinux.conf file per another Manjaro site.

Stupid stupid me, I didn't think to make a copy of the extlinux.conf file, and made a syntax error in the file, and no longer will the system boot into Manjaro!

I can get into the boot command line, but I can't see any way to edit that conf file to fix the problem, no nano, pick, vi... Is the system completely trashed now? I don't have any way to mount the eMMC in another system right now, but I could pick something up from Amazon in a few days...

Just a small tip for people trying to connect to pinetime to Amazfish.

If you have a newer device with InfiniTime software pic thise as the device when you search for the pinetime. Don't pick the device named pinetime.


And If somebody knows hove to see and set the right date of birth It would be grate.
In the gui I can only see the days. Not the years or months.



harbour-amazfish.conf
dob=@DateTime(\0\0\0\x10\0\0\0\0\0\0$\xe7\x88\x2\x93.\0\x1)


If somebody knows how to convert dates in the format used in the conf file. I think that could be a way to set the date and year rigth.

Hi. I have a new problem with my Pinephone, which is running the latest stable Majaro ARM w/ Phosh.

When I make a call, I cannot hear the phone ring, and when the receiver answers, I can't hear them and they can't hear me.

If I press the "speaker" button and switch to speakerphone, I can hear and be heard, but with a nasty echo audible on the receiver's end.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? What do you think might be the cause?

I had another problem with telephony earlier this month that was resolved, but now this new problem has emerged. The former problem was discussed here: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=14857

The only thing I've done with my phone recently that may have caused a problem was a failed attempt to install Signal protocols, Could that have possibly interfered with these functions?

More importantly, as I use Pinephone as my "daily driver"... how might I fix this problem? TIA. 

I have a PureTalk sim in the phone. It gets calls and texts, but data doesn't work. I keep getting texts warning me that the 3G is going away; I suspect that is connected to no data.

Settings shows, under Modem Details: 
Carrier PureTalk
Network type LTE
Signal strength 44%
Network Status Registered

Under access points:
Access point name att.mvno

Running Mobian Bookworm on the eMMC.

Any ideas on how to get data working?

Hello everybody,

i'm new on Pinephone. Just received a new device with KDE Plasma. after boot, the "Welcome Screen" popup in Landscape. Most fields are inaccessible, so i'm unable to do the setup. Only hard shutdown is possible.

Any ideas or experience with this situation?

Thank's in advance.

Hey guys and gals, this is my first post on the forums. I decided to ask around about a small issue I've got to save some time. Hope somebody knows the right answer. 

So, I've finally figured out how to get Gentoo Linux running on my pinephone. Everything works nicely, but I was wondering how to make the system have all the settings save after reboot. For instance, some stuff like the WiFi network last used gets saved, but other things like display scaling or starting up as Docked (as if HDMI is used) do not, and just most other things changed in the Settings configuration tool do not stay the same after I reboot.

I assume this has something to do with Phosh or perhaps file access, but I'm not sure what is the problem. While not a big deal really, I'd still like to know how have these things work as intended. Thank you.

Hello. I've got my Quartz64 A 8GB today and tried to boot with several Linux-based and Android images. I've tried both mmc and emmc boot with the same result:

```
DDR Version V1.07 20210419
ln
ddrconfig:7
DTT cs0 error
L3952:reinit fail
LPDDR4X, 324MHz

Any suggestions what this failure is meaning?

Does it expected at the moment for this board version?

Is there any work being done to make the PineTab early adopter edition usable? I haven't seen an OS update to be installed since I took delivery of the device.
The current state of the machine doesn't allow me to use it as an every day machine to do any work.

Hello, anyone knows how to get the wlan working?
