I tried to get some cheap phone headset[0] working with my PinePhone recently, to no avail.  It seemed to pair (I think?) but I could neither hear nor talk through it.  This was on fairly recent version of Mobian.

Do I need to switch OS?

Or maybe this headset[0] is not supported in Linux for some reason (maybe I should try device on another Linux box, or try different headset?)?

Or maybe I was just doing something wrong?  I played with quite a few settings, to no avail so far.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

[0] Headset is a Road King model 920.

Edit: my bad guys, I found the issue: https://github.com/JF002/InfiniTime/issues/374 I'm going to leave the post here for other who are like me and will come here first.

I got my sealed pinetime awhile ago and I'm wondering if anyone has the same problem and was able to fix it.

I believe it came with InfiniTime v.1.0 and I found and updated using the dfu zip from here. https://github.com/JF002/InfiniTime/releases/tag/1.1.0

The first time it failed, it lost the connection to the watch and everything seemed fine so I tried a second time. This worked without issue and I was on v1.1. Then 3 days later I noticed that the watch wouldn't connect to my android phone with Gadgebridge v0.57.0 from F-Droid. I held the only button and the watch rebooted. Upon reboot the watch booted with v1.0.

Now no matter what I do I cant get the update to work, it just says "Element cannot be installed". I've deleted the Gadgebridge app and tried again, rebooted the watch phone, tried plugged in, not plugged in, etc.


I waited for the pineTime to be "released" so I could be an end user so I don't really want to open it up or solder anything, though I'm willing to. Do you guys have any further suggestions as to what I can do to get back on v1.1?

Thanks!

Hello,
I wanted to try the OS and I am positively surprised how well it runs.
Unfortunately, my sim card was only recognized on the 1st boot.
Mobile data, SMS and calls went smoothly.
On the 2nd reboot, the sim card was no longer recognized.
However, it still works. Tested in another smartphone.
How to get the problem solved ?
My version is 4.0.1.48.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Greetings
Steffen

Hello,

I have a big problem... Soon we switch from HomeOffice to presence teaching at my professional school and I need a working PBP there. All my past notes live inside Xournal files and I'm very bad at using pens, so I completely relied on my PBP in school.

Since a few weeks, I randomly encounter the following problem:
Out of sudden, mostly when moving the PBP gently the screen blacks out instantaneously, only the backlight stays on. The only thing I may do then is to turn it off via holding the power key.

It isn't just the screen, as I was hearing music lately and it blacked out, the music stopped too and 2 seconds from there my bluetooth headphones played there "disconnected" tts voice.
I also looked at journalctl, but there are no traces of whatsoever. Thinking it may be a loose eMMC or the latest kernel upgrade I grabbed a fresh manjaro image, dd'ed it onto an µSD card and booted from that. It didn't even took me 10mins while configuring the new system to hit the black-out problem :/
Looking inside, nothing seems to be odd, I checked all the connectors, replugged them but that dind't change anything.

Now I'm "at the end of my latin" how you would sometimes say in germany. I don't know what to do now and I didn't find any other mentions of such a problem here or via google. So i may ask: Has anyone any idea how I can fix this, debug this or where to look for further help?

Kind regards,
Jochen

I want to remove the snap version from my Pinebook Pro. Is this possible?

Hello,
I have a ANSI Pinebook Pro I’d like to sell.  I love the computer, but I’d rather go back to linux on Intel for software reasons.  This laptop has been lightly used… see pictures in the post below.  It will come with the 2 meter power cable and a 5v/3amp charger.

I’m asking $180, and I will pay the shipping within the US. I plan to use UPS to ship. I'm open to globally shipping, but that would probably be an extra charge (don't yet know anything about shipping globally).

Feel free to private message with any questions.


Thanks,
Andy


Edited price to $180. I’d rather the pbp go to someone in this awesome community, rather than listing elsewhere.

Hi,

I updated my Manjaro KDE installation (Pinephone 32Gb/3Gb) recently, and after that I cannot even boot into an OS. I tried first with the eMMC, does not work. Then I tried several images from the SD (Manjaro, PostMarket, Mobian, even JumpDrive). No one works, the phone just vibrates, and the screen lights during 5 seconds, but nothing happen after that. I tried also with the reet botton.

Any suggestion?, thanks in advance

I'm learning some linux.. But how do you copy and paste into the mobian terminal? Commands you read on the phone.. Or do most on here ssh into the phone and fix stuff from the computer instead of typing in long commands on the screen? Thanks

Hi. I tried this guide.. I think i did everything right, but i might have missed something...
