I am interested in developing software to contribute to the PinePhone project. Since Manjaro is the official distribution for PinePhone, I think it makes the most sense to start here. Does anyone have any suggestions about a good place to start that would be the most useful to the project?

A bit of background, I do not work in technology but I have been programming as a hobby for about 5 years.  I like to get into the weeds more than your average programming hobbiest, so I'm not shy about learning things like kernal or driver development (even though this would be new territory for me).  I'm mainly interested in seeing where contribution is needed the most in the medium/long term.  This would also be my first time contributing to an open source project, so apologies if this isn't the best approach to take.

Anyone know if there is a fix coming soon for the broken inbound SMS issue using the default chat app on Mobian? I tested it last week and it still was happening with the latest updates. Inbound used to work months ago just fine. I was using it a lot.

Pinebook Pro with ANSI (US) keyboard from the most recent batch. I received it in May and played with it for about a week but it's been sitting in a drawer ever since and deserves a better home. Like new condition, ships in original box with original charger.

It seems to come back to this every few months or so: Just when I feel like my Mobian is getting great battery life, and is responsive 90% of the time I would get an update after which the phone rings after a long sleep and I cannot answer it no matter how I press the "answer" indicater.  At this point, the phone will either continue ringing and would also start vibrating/buzzing as if obssessed. I would have to press the power button for a long time for it to shut down.   Another scenerio (after another update) is that after the phone sleeps and a call comes in, I could pick up, but there's no sound. This time when i checked in the setting, it had gone to "Dummy Output" for the output, and nothing for the input.  Again, I would have to reboot.

Am i the only one in this cycle? I am still with 5.10. Am confused as to exactly what software I'm suppose to be using. what is phosh? what is wayland? what is flatpak? (these are all secret questions i feel i'm too dumb to ask

I finally received my new 3/32 upgrade board for my pinephone.
I read the wiki and watched the video, and did the board swap.
It looks like it was not flashed with a bootloader at the factory?
Instead I see a LED flash from the back of the board when I insert the USB and then I lsusb I get

Quote:hmm, right, I can measure 416mA when wlan0 is up, and 505 mA when down, and 380mA when the driver is unloaded

After one day with the 1.2 infiniti OS it started rebooting constantly, PINETIME then reboot cycle.
It was setup with wake on raise, I also recharged to full and sealed with glue. After a while it initialized normally but eventually started rebooting again after wearing it <10min. I don't know if it's the OS or maybe some glue is inducing the issue? I also cannot connect through bluetooth, it finds the watch but disconnects. I'm currently waiting for it to run out of battery to see if it changes anything. Thanks

I was SSH'ed into my pinephone for a while and I noticed the characters that I was typing were not echoing back very smoothly.

Listening to some audio via the bluetooth, the bluetooth acted just like the pausing characters during my typing.

I restarted the phone and both SSH over wifi and bluetooth operated normally.

Crazy - Just on ad hock research and wanting to get a cluster up and running I hope that I can do this on my Pine64 SOEdge AI. It would be cool if I could install openmosix on it but I doubt without knowing alot more coding skills I would be able to get it up and running.

Have any developers managed to get RUST and ADA up and running on this board?

Hi,

I've just reported this issue (Manjaro Phosh beta11):
https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/i...issues/190

It doesn't seem to happen every time, but making a test outbound call (number in address book, not sure if that matters) results in the audio output and input setting being lost in Settings -> Audio so the phone no longer rings on inbound call, it just vibrates.

Anyone else noticed this?
Do you know how to restart audio services without having the reboot the Pinephone?
