Hello all!
I just got my PineBook Pro in the mail and have been getting used to Manjaro (I have been a regular user of Ubuntu/Debian before). I want to install Java so I can code and work in Java projects using the PBP, however the arm architecture has allegedly been causing me some issues. I installed YAY and did yay -S jdk and then chose jre11, but I get the following warning: the following packages are not compatible with your architechture: jre11. Should I try to build them anyway? Any help is welcome, I figured I would ask others who have succeeded in installing java, with its necessary jdk and jre, on your PBPs.

• Should I be trying to install JRE11?
  
• What jdk should I get?
  
• Any other things that will be necessary to get java development up and running on my PBP?
  

I'm looking to modify the cluster board in order to have the camera ports exposed so I can feed cameras in for the new AI modules to use. https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Clusterboar..._and_other has the "Clusterboard version 2.2 Schematic Capture source file" but its pretty much useless to me as I don't have OrCAD and nothing I've tried was able to convert the (presumably) OrCAD *.dsn file from the wiki into some format I can open.  


Has anyone been able to open it or convert it to any of the more widely available formats. I can't get KiCAD, EasyEDA, or https://schematics.io to do anything with the file.

Pinephone's case covers the LED with a Fresnel lens probably to diffuse the light.

The problem is that the lens analyses the spectrum of the white light and produces circular rings of different wavelengths(colours), so we start from a warm yellowish colour in the middle and we reach blue on the outter periphery.

There are various such things that I wish to modify on Pinephone even by replacing ICs if this is possible.

My general observation is that Pinephone seems to be purposefully designed to be of inferior performance comparing with phones of a similar class, everything somehow "isn't working so well" for no specific reason though we have already been many years in the age of smartphones and we also have many years of experience with Ubuntu Touch.

The same observations apply to the audio quality though I have not still researched whether I can somehow optimise it except for putting the Pinephone in a box to gain some bass.

I have a rockpro64, if I do not have the PCIe card installed the wifi works, but if PCIe is installed I can see the SSD on the PCIe card but the standard WiFi module is not available.
Must be some sort of conflict during the boot process. Have tried several lINUX versions mrfixit, twisted OS, latest Debian all do the same.
Also noted that with latest Twisted OS standard USB not working only USB c

Hello, just installed the phosh beta 10 for pinephone and the default sms (chatty?) doesn’t show the green send button! I can see it when I minimize. It is off screen to the right in full screen mode and there doesn’t seem to be an auto-rotate. Is there any solution or keybaord shortcut to send? Very frustrating. Thanks.

Hi, I dont use my PinePhone as much as I'd like to and its better to have it in the hands of someone that would.

I ordered it with the usb-c dongle that I would very much like to keep, besided that I have a the specific screen protector, one transparant and one black tpu case, with an extra blank back cover.

The device it self is an v1.2a convergence with 3GB ram and 32GB storage, it came with PMOS installed on it, havent changed the installed os but tried out others on sd-cards.

I'm looking to sell it for 100 euro + cost of shipping (or something else?).

I'm located in Skåne, Sweden and I can meet up or drop it of, after having a chat about it.

Send me a PM

Why there is no documentation of the soc gpio ? And how to play with it. I know that one can do huge damages playing with it, but still there should be!

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is the right place to inquire about my issue about this product fault, but recently I've purchased along the PinePhone the aforementioned Powersupply which seems to show some lack of QC.

So I gently opened the Powersupply up out of curiosity to check the internals and making sure the Solder Joints were good, I noticed something blown/broken near the capacitors of the Unit (and bit of rust on one pin and excess glue on the Mainboard) .
I can't identify what the F1 label meant in regards to the component which looks like a fuse (cfr. pic below), so I wanted to know If someone could tell me where I could get a replacement for that part or schematics for this unit?

Also the unit is itself  still working, but I don't know if it's something expected to have when buyng a new unit.

Thanks in advance

On Debian Bullseye, pipewire can already be installed and configured as a drop-in replacement for pulseaudio. I have done this on my laptop and I appreciate the ease of configuring pipewire for high-quality Bluetooth audio (LDAC).

Unfortunately, on Mobian the pulseaudio-module-bluetooth package – which must be removed in order to use pipewire as a drop-in replacement for pulseaudio – is a hardcoded dependency for all of the various PinePhone-specific packages. Is this really necessary, or is it worth filing a bug on Mobian's tracker to make also pipewire capable of fulfilling this dependency?
